sorry sorry sorry for all the posts about the nazi grease-beavises destroying american federal govt but this vandalism being perpetrated with scant checks and balances really hits home for me

This is infuriating and this is why DOGE got rid of the far more effective USDS and 18F. Hapless coders under the age of 25 should not be GS-15s. It’s a shakedown racket

aw super proud of @kariebookish.bsky.social on the telly thumped the table when you got Judith Butler

my new bank card expires in the 2030s, just bury me already

could not follow team18f.bsky.social fast enough the wanton vandalism of organisations like 18F, as a government technologist myself, is retrograde and terrifying and i am so sorry for my dear american friends

♥️♥️♥️

Post you from a different era It was 1994 and I was sat on the beach in Venice, California while, rudely, a Baywatch shoot was happening in close proximity. A crew guy asked if I wanted a picture. I was like, sure. Pamela Anderson complimented my "pants" which were $1 from the Goodwill

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was just demolished by Musk’s team. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 million. A thread about 18F:

spent two stupid hours this evening learning that, reader, 2025 is not the year of the linux desktop

got to give a Glasgow Film Festival rec for The Extraordinary Miss Flower, an entrancing tale of a friend's mum and a hoard of love letters received from the world over, set to music. @regretteruane.bsky.social it occurs to me you might like this especially xx www.glasgowfilm.org/movie/the-ex...

www.civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/csr/jobs.cgi... My team is looking for a new associate delivery manager. This role is a great first step for people wanting to move into a digital team, it has been a springboard for the last job holders who have gone on to more senior delivery and product roles.

yes a super annoying online trope is when somebody finally changes their minds on something and, instead of being gracious, folk will say "THAT'S what made you change your mind? X and Y thing before didn't??"

"We don't work for DOGE. We have always worked for you." Yes!
