Cool - @TMobile stole my trade in phone, and because they apparently delete all records of support calls after 6 months it was the perfect scam for the support person to tell me ‘wait 3-4 bills to see that it’s fixed’. Is this common carrier practice now?!

The NY court has a hearing on June 14. If you are a Black Googler Level 3-7 who worked in NY from 2017 to 2022, and don’t opt out by July 5 or may be excluded from the case, Curley v. Google. Know your rights and options and decide. bencrump.com/google-discrimi…

Met Gala as monitoring and observability solutions, a 🧵.
Kim Kardashian as Datadog.
Requires investment to get into. Takes active upkeep. Generally worth it, but there are gaps (and the occasional malfunction). Not an easy situation to get out of.

My domain renewal saga is finally at an end. I spent 2.5 months, dozens of hours of calls between GoDaddy, Microsoft, and WildWestDomains and got nowhere - each insisted only the other could renew me. File an ICANN complaint though and mysteriously my domain was back in my hands!

I am sick and tired of Republicans attacking trans kids for just living their lives.
Whether it’s banning gender-affirming care or spewing hateful rhetoric, Republicans’ non-stop attacks on trans youth are wrong—we’ve got to fight back to #ProtectTransKids.
This is disgusting. We considered moving back to FL many times to be closer to family, and I was always afraid of what their culture was running towards.
Hate and ignorance and a screw-you-got-mine attitude are not what I want in my community or for my children.
Azure broke the account I use for teaching about CI/CD with containers in Azure and getting any help from them has been a month long effort in futility, so I guess that tutorial is getting an overhaul and a migration to AWS!
You know it’s going to be a good day when a child starts a story with: “Is it bad if Brother’s shoes were in the toilet?”
Damn, nice try. Truly El*n has made this bird site much safer and more secure. @HiltonHotels FYI. 😬
You get the behavior you incentivize. Measuring behavior for incentivization ALONE will change the behavior, and probably not in a way that will lead to the outcome you want.
As much as I love using @HiltonHotels I've literally never experienced anything worse booking-wise than interacting with their Grand Vacations stuff. Arcane, buggy, impossible to manage. Is there some trick to this that I'm missing that isn't just endless phone calls???
Meanwhile there is NOTHING more satisfying than watching my teams start to take advantage of groundwork we laid last year to make HUGE velocity bursts. Learning seems slow until suddenly it all clicks and then BOOM!
