Any lawyers on this thread?

About 2 years ago I applied for a job at Spectrum Cable... under veterans hiring initiative.

When I asked why I didn't get the job,(At the very least I was well qualified and it was in Denver, where I live, at least a first round interview) the recruiter accidental (or maybe purposely) emailed me a thread that the job was for foreign hires only.

I generally find Microsoft to be talentless regardless of the location.

Full disclosure: long MSFT.

Read the book, you will never trust facebook again. (if you did before)

Brian Krebs is able to turn these security breaches / hacks into a compelling crime novel.

I beleive I deleted facebook in 2013ish.

If I need to access for some business reason, I have a fake account. Otherwise I have zero desire to be on social media.

For my son, I built a web site based on my dog. The dog aka Prof Nubbs. Essentially it's a dogs against social media, if you on social media then you are not playing with your dog! Dogs against social media.

I'm going to keep my response very simple. (and not talk about society, cell phones etc... )

This post WINS Hacker News for the month!

I'm going to be respectful and not mention any political parties.

However I'm not part of the big party.

I'm not expected to win, but at least I'm going to put up a fight.

I'm involved in some Zoom calls to learn about the process of campaigning.

I have a creative background (mixed with punk rock) and intend to make this a creative process.

Additional goals are to get away from the computer, meet new people, and have fun.

I decided to run for congressional representative.

I run ad blockers and pihole, does that help?

Your argument is valid.

However; this particular laptop I am using right now is a used Dell and runs on linux.

My main computer, I built by myself.

But yes I use AWS, google etc. I just try to use less :)

In all honesty, I don't think I have met one dev that could be a manager.

Also from my perspective, the article doesn't make any sense.

In 1995 I used slide rules in Fort Sill, Ok. Haven't used them since.

Ubuntu since 2011

Now if only "Linux" would make a good phone.
