Immune compromised Scala/Java/Golang/Rust/Haskell self employed developer, stuck at home because of how mild COVID is. Getting rather pissed off about it. Father of autistic boy. Anti-fascist.

dear diary, it has been 437 days since my husband disappeared under mysterious circumstances. alas, I am unable to inform the police, for I am a mere woman.

@VeryBadLlama it’s nice that they self-label themselves as incels. Makes it so much easier.

Biden is in my hometown. He's just a few blocks away, and it's causing me cognitive dissonance.

I feel like I'm in a war zone. There are helicopters all over. Sirens wailing. So much protection.

But, he'll be unmasked in crowded rooms, since is no risk at all, apparently.

Weird that he's protected in one sort of bubble and not another. A man of his age spending time in crowds unmasked feels like the equivalent of painting a bullseye on him.

@augieray Biden squandered any good will I may have had for him. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

@augieray I have no skin in the game not being American. I hope Biden wins but his approach to his own safety is laughable. Secret service isn’t going to protect him from covid. I hope he doesn’t get sick. He is taking stupid risks right now. It’s gobsmacking.

People in the fire community (financial independence / early retirement) really over-estimate their ability to do blue collar work when they say stuff like ‘I’ll just barista fire’ (work as a barista after I retire)

Have you made coffee? Do you like coffee? Are you sure you can be hired to make it?

So many tech professionals have no idea what service work is, or how they are profoundly unsuitable to it

Motorbikes have to be the slowest form of transport. I’ve never witnessed anyone just get on their bike and go. It’s always 20 minute of idling and futzing with it and leaving it to go get something and then futzing some more and then idling it for another few minutes and then getting on and futzing some more for another 2 minutes before roaring off.

While I was at the vet, in my elastomeric, there were two kids there waiting and they kept looking at me (subtly) as if to say “wait wait wait - is there still something going on?”

CDC Director: ok, what do you have so far?

PR exec: ok, we call it a cold.

Director: no, that won’t fly, the symptoms are often too severe for that

PR exec: ok, option 2: “flu-like”….

Director: you son of a bitch. Love it.

Ok so should adults over the age of 40 get measles booster shots? Are we at the point where this might be prudent or is the normal childhood MMR still good?
