Maybe pro unionists should focus on the possibility that they could negotiate for getting their members better internal tooling/more focus on tech debt. At all companies ive been at, ive seen sooo many managers ignore internal tooling and ignoring tech debt, leading to engineers having to be on call 24/7 for legacy stuff.

Not op but want to comment on how similar the situation is to something ycombinator folks might have more experience with: its essentially a DDOS attack, because the time it takes to scale resources to meet demand is longer than the rate of growth of requests.

Course, dont link that to a team that's spent 2 years recreating a piece of software from scratch; from personal experience, it makes office life awkward. Comparing someones project to netscape wont win you any friends

I think its interesting... the older I get, the more I roll my eyes whenever anime is mentioned. In my formative years, cowboy bebop was my favorite show... maybe my hesitation towards anime today is some concern that nothing could be as good as cb; or is my imagination not as good and i require live action
filming?
Curious if others have experienced similar; im 30+

It's already the name of a popular drug that's been around for half a century, with signs pointing towards increasing usage and legalization. There's thousands of research papers on "Ecstasy" already, and millions of people searching for "tips on ecstasy" or "how to use ecstasy".
Whomever named this language is a moron.

I dont think you were antagonistic enough; anyone that tries doing this fake kidnapping better be sure no one on the team has a concealed carry permit, heart issues, anxiety, ptsd, etc.
