All of what’s happening in Minneapolis is deeply rooted in US history. And in Minneapolis and St. Paul history specifically: Read about the Rondo neighborhood, for example. It’s no accident the the flagship lake in the City of Lakes was named after the vice president of the Confederacy until just a few years ago. Don’t get too excited about making saints of us all here.
It’s crucial for us to recognize that historical precedent. It’s also crucial for us to recognize the extreme new danger of the present moment.

Software development these days really reminds me of what large political parties do—no shred of thinking about the whole, not even a little bit of conviction, just churning out mid ever more milquetoast "features" designed to eek out a little more compliance.
Moral stances and ethics be damned.

Making software, from the the overall design, the user interface and experience, the process flows, the underlying architecture and all the way to the nitty-gritty implementation details and low-level code structure is an incredibly intellectually rewarding and deeply satisfying creative activity.
Why would you want to deny this to yourself to be a clanker herder?
