Let me pin 📌 this tweet.

2024 —2026 are going to be economically painful years.

[Uncle Samuel Sharpe @samoye95]

My only advice to young people is to find agency within yourselves and just focus on adding value to the end user/customer.

Grades are nice, very nice. But in this economy, businesses are only paying for value added.

So ask yourself, "What is valuable?"

Anna Bezant struggled to secure an internship in her final summer before graduating, despite being on track for a first-class degree in maths with economics from the University of Exeter.

She was disheartened when only a handful of replies came, and more often than not, she didn’t receive a response at all.

Read how straight-A students like Anna are struggling to find work experience 👇

The lecturer suffered life-threatening injuries. It’s unclear whether the lecturer was handcuffed before being taken to hospital 🇬🇧🇸🇦

50 Cent reacts to the leaked Diddy s*x tape that features his baby mama and expresses regret for not including her in his Netflix Diddy documentary, making it clear he believes she was a willing participant in Diddy’s freak-offs and not a victim.

@NiohBerg He should be released. His penance was a miscarriage of justice.

Coroner ruled that Floyd died of a drug overdose, not actions by Chauvin.

When Black and Brown people told everyone that the police are incompetent, we weren’t believed!

They watched Henry Nowak die after being stabbed, he told them he was, and they dismissed him.

We were NEVER WRONG.

I hope every last one of them is prosecuted too!

[Uncle Samuel Sharpe @samoye95]

Yeah, the English are going to riot

Audio of the 999 call made after Henry Nowak was stabbed has been made public.⁠

🚨 NEW: The Government will not ban Sikhs from carrying ceremonial knives, one of which was used in Henry Nowak's murder

Home Secretary: "Carrying a knife for the purpose of religious observance is one thing - using it is quite another"

Akademiks says 50 Cent is in no position to joke about Diddy having a small d—k, because Diddy brought men with 15-inchers to CRACK his baby mama 💀😭

“Even if Diddy had a 1 inch.. but he brought the n*gga with a 15 incher to bruise her up that she couldn’t walk home to take care of y’all son. Diddy had her doing shi you never thought she could even do”

“That n*gga got 5 n*ggas cr*cking your b*tch. At this point if I’m 50, I would’ve wished Diddy could’ve handled the job by himself”

Clearly, decomposing a system into subsystems & validating upon integration is second nature to me.

This is the Systems Engineering V-model.
Requirements first, design to them, verify against them

Software Engineering is now 'Software Systems Engineering'.

[MacCallister Higgins @macjshiggins]

nobody wants to hear this but the classical NASA systems engineering is the perfect model for developing code with LLMs. people try to approximate this with planning modes, but if you’re explicit in your docs it’s never been easier to build, test, and verify complex codebases.

I cannot work in such an environment for too long before I am bored out of my mind.

[Sonny @rawespresso]

Walk into any UK office at 3pm on a Friday and you'll see something that's quietly become normal.

Most desks are empty. The ones that aren't have someone leaning back, scrolling on their phone, or staring at a single email they've been 'working on' since 2pm.

The few people actually doing work are doing it slowly enough that it could have been finished in 20 minutes if anyone was actually paying attention.

The boss is in their office on a personal call, or out at a long lunch, or working from home so they don't have to see it.

This is what the average UK office costs the average UK business — about 12 paid working hours a week that nobody is actually doing anything meaningful in.

The 4-day work week conversation has nothing to do with whether the work fits into 4 days. Most people are already doing it in 3, and nobody at the top wants to admit it out loud.
