I can only react to this image as I am: a Jew. To make Jewish words and phrases interchangeable with ICE detention is to make Judaism the face of fascism. This has happened in Israel and will happen here if we allow it

@thepanta82 you're asking what structural forces inside the united states would allow a capitalist to concentrate wealth and capture state power? truly an incredibly mystery, for i am missing an entire chunk of my prefrontal cortex

[Ben Hodes @benminnn]

A warning what happens when a tech company prioritizes OKRs (eg "ship the new app in Q2 2024") and hitting artificial goals is what everyone optimizes for. And stops:

- Listening to customers
- Doing proper QA testing
- Holding a new release until it is ready for prod

The SEC talking smack for a month only for Tennessee to get decimated by Ohio State, and then Alabama and South Carolina to get manballed by Michigan and Illinois is the most hilarious storyline in CFB this year.

My understanding is the capital gains tax might not be the only progressive revenue proposal for Seattle we'll be seeing in the next few weeks.

[Ben Hodes @benminnn]

@stevesi I disagree, the effective tax rate for millionaires such as yourself is historically and ethically untenable, lots of people should pay more taxes

[Ben Hodes @benminnn]

@stevesi this sure is a lot of words to say "I don't want to pay more taxes"

Microsoft and Satya Nadella’s obsession with the Growth Mindset is abusive and cult-like, defining people’s futures based on how they adhere to a flimsy doctrine interpreted entirely by management, with its own sinners and saints baked in. It's ugly.

[Ed Zitron @edzitron]

Newsletter: Microsoft is a cult driven by “The Growth Mindset,” a psuedo-science that informs recruitment, hiring, firing and promotion decisions, all while instructing employees and managers to generate performance reviews using hallucination-prone AI.
