Wow. Politically charged much?

Everything is, inherently.

I wish I lived in that fantastical world where it wasn't :/

... except politics. If you don't value political influence, then you are ignoring a very important part of how our society is built.

I can also choose to not care about water, but sooner or later my body will say "hmm, maybe you should change this"

Everything in a society is a manifestation of politics, it's the cybernetics of society.

It's sarcasm

Poe's Law could very well apply here.

No.

Regardless of the content itself, naive redaction of a high profile PDF still exposing the text contents is something that seems relevant to the community. Maybe you are in the wrong place?

Is there really much of an anti-immigrant narrative here?

The Trump administration has suspended the green card lottery program, using this murder as an excuse.

They are taking advantage of a situation. You'd think a false flag would definitely have someone who could be construed to not be a white immigrant.

I don't think it's a false flag but the online right has already decided the shooter isn't white.

If anyone has ever been confused by the concept of race being a cultural construct, here is an object lesson.

Any crime by an immigrant or by a non-immigrant can be twisted into an anti-immigrant narrative by Trump. And this one has been.

The killer was an immigrant (from Portugal).

I need to move back to the Bay

For senior engineers with some fiscal discipline, it's great, although it's more great to work remotely.

On the more junior end, that $250k goes about as far as $100k in a less expensive region. Keep in mind that the average 1-bedroom rent is $3k+/mo, the average home for a family with kids is $2M, the average PG&E bill for a house is probably $400+, any repairs or remodels will cost you 2x as much as in most other places... and state income taxes are 10% on top of federal.

Most CoL estimates put the cost of living in San Jose at 2x the national average. And that's San Jose.

it's possible to work remotely, albeit harder to land a job. Still if you makea bit less and live in a LCoL area that's a great deal.

Rice at 53 is interesting

Honestly for the limited projects I've had to work with... I can attest to that. It's the over engineered abstractions that get me. Traditional Java EE users use WAY too many abstractions and interfaces, it's absolutely horrible to debug.

I guess it's just a given that everyone uses IntelliJ Ultimate. If you don't, I guess you're right, the tooling is lacking outside of that. But it's so worth it...

How are we defining small message volumes?
