It is utterly offensive that United States railway workers do not have paid sick leave

[Hamilton Nolan @hamiltonnolan]

Broken record I know but here you have thousands of workers forced into a brutal decision with no recourse, whereas if you have a union, you can respond to this by saying "lol fuck off." Truly hope this idiot inadvertently spurs the unionization of tech.

thinking that elon is good is a reliable indicator of what I am calling "bad brain syndrome", where your brain is bad

Everyone with a “good job” should look at Twitter and understand all that destruction can happen to you. Doing that to companies is the whole business model of the private equity industry. Unionize WHILE THINGS ARE STILL GOOD. Until you do, you’re driving fast with no seatbelt.

[Scott Hanselman 🌮 @shanselman]

Deadlines are artificial made up things. Don’t do this. It’s rarely if ever this important. Tech exists for humans, not the other way around.

The reason unions are badass is if a billionaire walks into your office and starts demanding you work 12 hours a day 7 days a week to prove to him you deserve your job, you and your coworkers can legally make that one of the worst days of his life.

[Josie @javavvitch]

Hot take: If you are the go-to person on your team or org to fix problems, it's a sign of poor leadership and mentoring on your part.

The rest of your team shouldn't have to rely on you to fix their problems.

[Laurie @laurieontech]

Unfortunate reminder that tech interview processes are inherently broken and even the most talented developer you know is likely to not get to the offer stage a high percentage of the time.

let’s see missile launch code requirements for what they really are: gatekeeping in its most insidious form. suppose you’d like to destroy the moon, as most of us would. do you have a launch code? oh, you can’t afford one? sorry, you’re shut out of the process entirely

how are people not understanding that the entire point of a strike is to be extremely inconvenient so as to make the value of your work apparent

[Wirecutter Union @wirecutterunion]

We are on strike! Don’t cross the digital picket line, now through November 29th. Sign up here to be kept up to date on our progress: https://t.co/sLOVFbdbZK

[Kim Kelly @GrimKim]

Remember: @wirecutterunion is on strike, and have asked folks not to click on any Wirecutter links this weekend. They’re fighting for a fair wage and a union contract, and @nytimes is dragging its well-shod feet. No contract, no clicks! Don’t cross the digital picket line!

If you're in an under-represented minority in tech and want to discuss salaries, my DMs are open
