I cannot believe companies are using a tool like Pluralsight flow for sw engineers. It measures targets like coding days, lines of code & target impact (whatever that is). It's the definition of micromanagement. Good luck to anyone managed by this software. From an ad they run:

it feels insane because when i came out in 2011 virtually no one i talked to knew what a transgender person was. at some point in the last 11 years conservatives figured out we exist and collectively went "oh cool, a new minority group to oppress just dropped"

Sorry, just to clarify — if a movie has more than one woman in it, and the women talk to each other about something other than a man, it automatically sucks? That’s how you feel?
