The title as expected is bait. It’s a common situation in many companies where new hires are given authority with risks/consenquences and they overstep. They’re told not to do it again. That’s the gist of it. You’re welcome.

For everyone else - make sure your DB backups work. You’ll need them.

As these other countries become more wealthy and lucrative in and of themselves due to the sheer industriousness of their citizenry rather than trying to “extract value” through shameless and country-destroying corruptive exploitation, we won’t have much of a reason to look up to places like Jane Street. I don’t particularly care what the interns have wrought because quite frankly the company is a parasitic entity that should not be looked up to as an example, but as something to immediately investigate as a nest of illegal activity that leaves the country worse off.

Am I surprised they were cut off? No, not at all. They should be cut off in the West altogether.

It’s women doing it to other women. Men couldn’t give a zeptoscopic infinitesimal fuck about the kind of things that women are troubling themselves over in some race to the bottom to see who can one-up each other more in a competition of vanity and irrelevance. So no, it’s not a “social expectations” issue, and men only play along in a terrible effort to either understand (which they fail) or get laid (works more often than not!)

I’d fucking love a post about NixOS config over this shit any day of the week. Lay it on us fella.

It’s the pay-to-play nature of dating apps that he is railing about.

I would like a plastic/cosmetic surgeon to weigh in for me on the first picture. How many cosmetic procedures can you identify based off of those two photos alone?

Edit: goes without saying but this is mostly women ranting about women shit. The marketing industry for almost everything caters to women, and it’s easy to see why: they buy into tons of bullshit with hard cash. I don’t think we’d see much cash flow in economy without them doing MLM nonsense to their friends. So I guess we have them to thank that the internet is so damn lucrative.

Oh and one last thing: you’re about to see “meta” discourse over the term “therapy-speak”. It will be used in much the same way as the actual words themselves, mostly to flex and show some innate superiority of the speaker. Once you see language being used as a cutting knife it becomes obvious these people spend way too much time on the internet learning to imitate others.

I’m reminded of the posts about a decade ago from various prolific posters waving goodbye to HN. They were too kind at the time to say why.
