An AR-15 (me) laying on an unironed trans pride flag. I'm loaded with a purple magazine and equipped with a scope and weapon light.

Like I literally went on vacation, and a coworker reverted a PR of mine that I knew was good, and I noticed that it was because something else was messed up, leading to the symptom they thought was related to the PR but just didn't do the RCA from step one. I wish devs would stop being reactive!

Yeah unfortunately I also have that behavior on my own team. And it makes me sad that basically everywhere at the company, including in my own team, we have people just not doing diligence in root causing stuff.

That's the only thing I know about Amanda Marcotte, and I mention it every single time she says anything because people sorta memory holed that one!

The Democrats can't even beat America's Nazi Youth.

Amazing.

I can't authenticate to Kafka with IAM. That's *checks notes* YOUR FAULT!

The important thing to know about Amanda Marcotte, and really everything she ever says needs to be understood in this light, she wrote an entire article defending arresting rape survivors who don't want to testify.

Honestly I think they have it backwards. The left makes edgy jokes ("hope the bullet that hit Charlie Kirk is okay"), whereas the right has a serious violence problem (loving Hitler and committing mass shootings).

"The right makes edgy jokes [they love Hitler], whereas the Left has a violence problem [believing in self-defense]."

The Arizona Young Republicans finally put out their own statement and they’re standing by those names in the Politico article and condemned Gavin Wax & those who criticized their members. They also thank JD Vance, Steven Crowder and Matt Walsh for defending their hateful commentary as “edgy jokes.”

ARIZONA YOUNG REPUBLICANS TEDERATION
Official Statement from the Arizona Young Republicans Federation
The Arizona Young Republicans firmly reject any involvement in the ongoing political witch hunt targeting fellow Young Republican members. As an organization, we stand for due process, transparency, and fairness, not mob-style condemnation driven by political opportunism or personal agendas.
It is disheartening to witness the double standard applied by many critics. While certain voices within our own movement have been quick to condemn, many of these same individuals have overlooked or ignored deeply concerning rhetoric and actions on the political left-including public celebrations of the tragic death of Charlie Kirk and Jay Jones, calling for the death of family. This kind of selective outrage undermines efforts to address real issues in good faith.
While serious questions remain about the authenticity and context of the private group chat messages in question, we acknowledge that some of the language reportedly shared does not reflect the professionalism, judgment, or values we uphold. We express our sincere regret and unequivocally condemn any rhetoric that could be interpreted as sympathetic to Nazi ideology. Such language is reprehensible and has no place in our organization, our movement, or our country. As young leaders in the conservative movement, we have a responsibility to hold ourselves to the highest standards, even in private or informal settings. We are also deeply concerned by the circumstances under which these private messages were obtained and disseminated. Allegations that this material was selectively edited and released under coercive means are serious and merit thorough examination. In light of these allegations, we believe the reported actions of Gavin Wax are incompatible with the trust and integrity expected of those in Republican leadership. The Arizona Young Republicans Federation is actively seeking legal counsel to review these matters and will pursue all appropriate options moving forward.
We are disappointed that, rather than reaching out to seek the truth or engage in dialogue, the National Young Republican leadership chose to issue a public condemnation without so much as a single call to our organization. This lack of communication reflects a troubling disregard for unity and due process, and raises serious concerns about loyalty and leadership within our movement.
We remain steadfast in our commitment to building a Republican movement rooted in truth, loyalty, and integrity. We will not abandon our members in the face of politically motivated attacks, nor will we allow false narratives to divide us.
We would like to thank Vice-President Vance, Steven Crowder, Matt Walsh, and all others who pointed out the obvious: while the right makes edgy jokes, the left has a serious violence problem.

Senior engineering is when see an error in Datadog and go "I'm getting an error (that I didn't Google) in production, can you look at it?"

Senior engineering is when you get an error in production that you've seen for the first time because you ignored the errors in pre-production for the last two weeks, so you page the infrastructure team, because surely it's their fault and not yours.

His life represented a step toward Ragnarok if anything. We must repair the great damage he did with each breath.

Charlie Kirk is not in Valhalla.

There's no way the valkyries would've picked a racist, transmisogynist, talentless debate pervert to go train with the greatest fighters of all time to defend the universe at Ragnarok.

Or just being insanely revenge-focused, but the people who like Magneto for that are also insanely revenge-focused themselves.
