  • I have either written or gotten a variant of every single one of these comments 🫠:

    Please include the JIRA task in the commit title.

    Did you run any manual testing?

    Where’s the PRD link in the commit message?

    Can you please split this into multiple smaller commits?

    Can you combine these two commits?

    Did you email Jon about this because he’s working on that project with Sarah and you might be duplicating efforts.

    This should be named BarFoo instead of FooBar.

    Why aren’t you using CorporateInternalLib16 that does 90% of this?

    Why aren’t you using ThirdPartyPaidLibByExEmployee?

    Why aren’t you using StandardLib thing you forgot existed?

    All our I/O should be async.

    All our hot loop code needs to be sync.

    This will increase latency of NonCoreBusinessFlow by 0.01%. can you shave some time off so we can push in feature B also?

    Please add a feature flag so we can do gradual rollout.

    What operational levers does this have?

    Lgtm - just address those comments



  • What’s incredible to me is that this is basically guaranteed to only hit Hezbollah’s command structure. 3000 hospitalized, and so far the only collateral damage is a handful of close relatives who were in cars that created as a result. That’s biblical plague levels of precision strike capabilities.

    For Hezbollah, this is putting over half their command staff out of the picture for a week. That’s an incredible blow that will be hard for them to come back from. If Lebanon is smart, they’ll use the opportunity to forcefully disarm Hezbollah.







  • The indictment was sealed and details of the charges weren’t immediately announced by prosecutors, but the U.S. attorney in Manhattan, Damian Williams, confirmed in a statement that federal agents had Combs in custody.

    “We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time,” Williams said in a statement.

    So it’s all pure speculation for the next few hours - this could be for tax evasion for all we know.

    EDIT: having read the full article now - I hope it includes tax evasion as well as everything else they describe. I knew he was a horrible person but holy fuck that’s bad.




  • This is a mentally ill person who was driven to an extreme and felt there was nothing better to do than take his own life.

    There is no message that should be said other than to urge anyone who is feeling similar distress needs to know that there are people who love them and no matter what there is always a better alternative.

    By condoning it for political purposes you give an out for the mentally ill to commit “legitimate” suicide, or worse to being manipulated into doing so. This is not a slippert slope, it is a hard line that many in these comments have crossed - which is why it needs to be said that there is a better path and there are resources.
