Crazy how all these places that are overwhelmingly white keep on refusing to hire white people because they’re white, other than all the other white people who already work there bsky.app/profile/mtsw...
longstanding theory on this is that people who know the applicant that they don't want to hire has racial resentment offer "wish i could've hired you, but they made me hire a black woman instead!" as a let-them-down-easy cope rather than admit to them that they just didn't want to hire them.

He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

CDC leadership just told staff on Monday that they could stop sending their "5 things I did last week" emails. Finally.
Per source, people were mostly just sending the same things every week. Many folks added read receipts and were able to see that no one at DOGE was actually reading the emails.
