I'd argue it's a bad career path overall. You will get laid off working as a dev, it's just how it works, and if you haven't managed a 10+ headcount by your mid 30's you will find yourself facing ever escalating ageism 35 on as an old man dev. It's not a field that generally professionally rewards experience beyond 5-ish years.

Pour one out for random regional parties with anachronistic ballot access who put their third party faith in that... idk what to even call RFK Jr... a quixotic bon vivant, who takes roadkill to steak houses? A recovered addict who won't admit his habit fucked his voice up and not a flu vaccine? Rich kid is perhaps most apt.
"Neolib punches self in balls" seems to be a recurring theme in the West these days...

I have seen enough footage of the war crimes to be confident of Blinken's guilt.
War criminals deserve the noose. Especially genocidal ones.
Use FOSS on non-intel hardware and use tor. Your physical life is just gonna be kind of tracked because if you live in a walkable city, you're on camera the whole time you're out and modern cars phone home EVERYTHING if you don't live in a walkable city. I guess you can buy a 1997 Honda Accord to get around that but on an infinite timeframe the cost of maintaining a pre-panopticon vehicle will only go up...
They don't care about winning. They care about being cool at the right DC cocktail parties,which they have achieved by extracting their own base from the party in favor of a war criminal who left office with 13% approval.
A party more concerned with defeating the hippies than their actual political opponents deserves to lose, and as we have seen now, will. The DNC is a waste of effort. Not to promote the Greens, they're an asylum where the inmates have taken over and Jill Stein is too smug to win a PTA vote, much less the presidency. We need an American Labor party that actually wants to win more than make friends in the beltway.
Liz Cheney won't be secretary of defense and Anthony Blinken will be out of work and ideally sent to Gitmo.
A party that offers nothing except the other party's policies but 5% less racist/misogynist/homophobic deserves to hemorrhage voters and lose. When the DNC's sole goal is defeating their pre-Biden base, they shouldn't be surprised when nobody is a dem anymore.

Kamala underperformed Biden by 4% among women, primarily college educated women, the sole cohort their shitty woke anti-Bernie bro strategy of the last 4 years was supposed to win over in numbers that warranted losing all men. Physician heal thyself.
