Since I've been getting recruitment letters a lot lately with reference to my Twitter: If you're recruiting for "Web 3.0" or blockchain bullshit -- fuck off. I don't want any part of your scam

respecting furries as a tech worker is like respecting the ocean as a sailor you will prefer their benevolence to their ire, make a priority of not earning it
I'm floored that I'm feeling compelled to write this. Maybe some folks don't realize this? Furries. The community everyone loves to rag on... they're a major player at tech orgs. Let me start by saying I'm not a furry, and personally I don't get the scene... but I respect 'em 1

There are actually *no* programming languages that express "how computers work"! Not even C. The operating system runs other programs 'between' your lines. CPUs execute both branches of ifs, and magically run multiple lines of your code at once. Your code is just a suggestion
Replying to @DanielcHooper
C is how computers actually work. Learn it and move on to another language if you want

Ok, too many people have shared this "infographic" in my mentions and it is so patently wrong that I took the time to track the numbers/sources and show why it is wrong and misleading. Feel free to use this fact-checked version to your hearts' content. Sources in the thread.

Ban. Congressional. Stock. Trading. It’s like letting referees bet on sports games.
BREAKING: Nancy Pelosi has made over $900,000 on her $NVDA trade. She has added now four times her Congressional salary in 71 days on one trade. Her Nvidia deep ITM call option is now up almost 45% since she entered two months ago. See her portfolio on Unusual Whales.

Here are my proposed #TealMask trade codes! Trade for Sinnoh starters, Trade Evolutions, & Version Exclusive Pokemon with these codes. The more these codes spread, the better it works. Info on HOW this works here youtu.be/kL4OMc98O1E
