Vivo cerca de una escuela y todos los putos días la maestra le dice por el megáfono a José María Cruz que no se salga de la fila. ¿De qué se trata José María? ¿Por qué no haces pinches caso?.

2nd semester of CS, I asked "What is a server?" in my intermediate program class.
Everyone laughed, the professor looked at me incredulously & I continued with "What do you mean a computer doesn't have a screen?"
And here we are today. Ask the questions until you understand.

My cofounder taught me about "code smells", which are basically clues in your code that might indicate there's a deeper problem.
I think there are also "org smells"; behaviors / patterns / incentivizes that should give you a clue that something deeper needs attention.

Just a reminder that a “nonviolent” protest isn’t a protest that’s supposed to make you feel warm & fuzzy afterwards. One of the primary points of protest is to make people uncomfortable with conditions as they exist.
Don’t conflate nonviolence & comfort.
I'll say it:
Beard, Brow, and Greek Freak are three of the worst nicknames ever. We gotta do better.
