So people want to “cancel” (or really harass) a woman for claiming to flip off Zionists because it’s “antisemitic”?
Dude, I have had way worse happen to me in NYC and that’s what you are complaining about!?!? It’s NYC! Grow up!

Heartbroken over the loss of the Bibas family—a reminder that conflict shatters families and leaves unbearable grief. This isn’t about blame but about shared pain. בזכות them, may we embrace empathy and work toward a future of solace and hope for all.

I just wrote a piece called "In Praise of 'Normal' Engineers". (partly paywalled)
When people talk about world-class engineering orgs, they usually have in mind orgs that are top-heavy with the most experienced and pedigured talent.

I am getting increasingly frustrated for services I pay for: which simply removed the way to contact support with a non-trivial problem.
They added an AI bot.
Which bot is sh*t and cannot fix my issue.
All these companies patting themselves on the back while I plan to leave

This is why you fight these cowards.
The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.
Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

"I work at Google. How many times does Google deploy to production?"
I'd call it less "deploy" and more "remove a beloved service from the Jenga tower," but to each their own.

You want to know how such a large proportion of Israel came to think collective punishment is OK? Because the same proportion of *you* are as shallow in your imagination of other people, their individuality, and how much they deserve for wanting bad things.

The @nytimes.com just put out a podcast on Trump failing the marshmallow test and I can help but imagine Trump as an impulsive toddler just taking the marshmallow lol

I have started reading @peterbeinart.bsky.social latest book and I got to say I love his comparisons to Passover and Purim. I also have to say I really relate to his experience as a frum Jew in America after Oct 7th.
