This pretty much sums it up. But that feeling doesn't go away. It is there all day, every day. I hate carrying this much rage around, almost as much as I hate the people that are causing it.
Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.
I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Not the christmas story i expected to read before bed. lol www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
My weirdest Christmas: I was 11 and braced for tension. Then I found my parents and step-parents in bed together
It was our first joint family Christmas, and I watched fearfully as my mum walked into the kitchen she had once called hers. The next 48 hours were full of surprises

Meant to post this a while back. My godmother sent me this picture for my birthday. This me with my grandparents at Christmas in 1974! And I just realized that I’ve still got (hanging in my dining room) the shadowbox that’s hanging behind us in the ‘74 picture!

This is why arts and humanities majors are more important than finance and business majors. (But those finance and business majors are dead set on making sure they obliterate the possibility of actually living your life as an artist...)

TLDR for folks losing their jobs because of this idiot regime (or otherwise):
When you get a new job, MAKE SURE you negotiate the noncompete language to clearly indicate that it is inapplicable in the event that you are RIFd of laid off.
Seriously.
