@Tesla been trying to get a hold of someone since Saturday to contest my random pickup reschedule. Very concerned. 48h and no response to my text messages and no one to answer phones when I call. Did the layoffs really degrade customer service to the point of non-existence

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.🧵

Democrats blast President Trump's move to suspend military aid to Ukraine, which was approved by Congress to help fight off a Russian invasion. "This is no way to treat our ally in their fight for freedom."

AP and Reuters were barred from the Oval Office, but TASS was allowed in.

Never thought I would write this about the party of Ronald Reagan.

At the UN today, the U.S. voted with Russia, Belarus, North Korea, and a host of other Kremlin-aligned nations - against a resolution which condemned Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

[Armando W. @awirshing]

Way to go @HouseGOP @SenateGOP. You have shown a united effort to empower an enemy and in doing so supporting their allies in believing that if they just kill enough over a long enough period of time, the US will back down.
Again, republicans have Reagan rolling in his grave.

[Institute for the Study of War @TheStudyofWar]

The return of the Kremlin’s notion of a “partitioned Ukraine” is likely an organized effort to mislead the international community into rejecting key components of Ukraine’s sovereignty: its territorial integrity as defined in 1991 and its right to self-determination. 🧵(1/11)

[Chris Christie @GovChristie]

A President of the United States that doesn't believe they have an obligation to support the Constitution has no business being anywhere near the White House.

@realDonaldTrump is a danger to this country. He is unfit to be President and is here only to serve himself, not you.

[Armando W. @awirshing]

Unbelievably stupid our government is not aligned on the value of future peace and stability we’re getting for us and our children here. I do not want my grandchildren fighting another war in Europe because of Appeasement Republicans. Reagan is turning over in hide grave.

@GovChristie is the adult in the room of conservative presidential candidates.

@MKrafick The follow up questions of why I, as a developer, had that level of access in production DBs were equally concerned.

[Armando W. @awirshing]

@MKrafick Impressive. Reminds me of a time long ago when I dropped multiple partitions from a prod DB as a test in front of my manager. Mind you, that DB was not in use by any systems but the sheer look of panic when he noticed the prefix PRD and my command as I hit enter were priceless.

This has got to be the STUPIDEST management decision I have experienced in my 40 something years as a Dolphins fan. #brianflores #miamidolphins #baddecisions https://t.co/zSa7VORy0Y

Since this false assumption is still distressingly common: In software delivery, there is no speed vs stability trade-off

And for those just noticing... no... the car is not named after the GM ev... it's named after Bolt the dog from the movie. Though the irony does not get lost on me. LOL.
