After you work in tech long enough you can easily predict which users are going to have problems with what, and almost exactly how long it’ll take them to contact you about the (almost always self-created) problem.

In many ways — contra what you’ve heard — people are very predictable.

I was just starting to eat indoors again when Delta started surging, and it's pretty depressing that it no longer feels safe. The hit restaurants are taking is even worse. https://t.co/qgKPJ8qzfC

I am perfectly fine eating inside a restaurant, particularly if it’s well-ventilated. We have the vaccines and they work. No reason to keep hiding under the bed. It’s pointless.

I've publicly called myself a software engineer for 18 years and never received a message like this, because incorrect engineering nomenclature gatekeepers like Elijah Edwards, PE, also tend to be fully accredited misogynists. https://t.co/wwsEEbgF7V

I call myself a ninjaneer and have had to endure nearly constant ninja attacks, however.

Small Texas town is so ravaged with COVID-19 that it basically had to shut down: report.

The problem isn’t fucking mask mandates as this article claims, but lack of vaccinations. Yes, masks do help but they are more a liberal visual shibboleth than a panacea. Vaccination is far better. This wouldn’t have happened if all these doofuses had gotten jabbed.

It’s a weird conclusion to the liberal project that its dying but yet still powerful last gasps will be the attempt to regulate and police attraction between free people, much like the moribund religions these same prudes had largely already rejected.

What’s your most insane belief? Like something you *actually* support but that most people, including those inside your political circle, would find ridiculous

That we should be spending a lot of money and research effort to figure out how to allow fetuses to be gestated outside of a human womb.
