just posting that i love this comment and thank you

idk about your "anti-labor" strawman here. promoting wholly unqualified internal people who have never managed anyone before and expecting them to take over a high performing team is not a good plan, nor is it "anti-labor". think about the people on the team who have to suffer as this internal candidate learns things that anyone with schooling or training in management would already know. at least send them to a course first or something. "historical context" and "product insight" don't count for anything in an engineering manager. they're not a product designer. that engineering manager should manage engineers, not plan the product. if they want to plan product, pick a C-level position where they can do that and hire a _manager_ externally.

no way. you'll take someone who is a great individual contributor and find they're a terrible manager since they want to turn everyone else into _themselves_.

if you're going to promote from within, please send them to a course or something. get them some real training first or you'll have a predictable outcome.

having someone cut their teeth on you as their first management position is BS and the rest of the team will probably resent your new 'hire'

what the heck with dr seuss? get your culture war BS outta here.

exactly - was on a team where an individual contributor got promoted vertically to manager and thought they could create a good product by code reviewing everyone to death and demanding that they be the only one allowed to code review. no more tagging other teammates; just this manager

like the tantrum that OP posted about not bitching?

Troll cave getting lonely, came out for some company?

Elon treats humans like cogs in his money machine.

Yes it follows. \

"Wouldn't it seem more likely that California latinos statistically disregard health officials advice" - No. For example: a lot of communities have intergenerational families living in close proximity due to lack of affordable housing, jobs, redlining, etc. Having many people living closer together explains being "most impacted" as well as (obviously better than but hey I'm being magnanimous) your thesis that people are choosing to "disregard advice". Just... no.

exactly - elon musk directly contributed to the rise of covid in the bay

what a useless comment - should be removed

before trump we used to do this thing called try to cajole other countries into having labor laws. something the TPP would have helped with, for example. MAGA amirite?
