However, crypto has become such a menace to society that it's time that governments do something about it, if they even can at this point.
I do understand that it is what it is and GitLab has to deal with it, but going forward, can we stop pretending a language and framework that prioritizes cleverness and hidden control flow is better than something more boring?

We're getting very close to the point where the combination of the competency crisis and the greed crisis are going to start causing more people to think twice about doing things that were once common, like flying commercial.
Personally, I cancelled my flight later this month and am going to start getting in the habit of doing long road trips again.
Just-as-if-not-more dangerous? Maybe, but at least I have a higher chance of my fate being in my own hands (swerving out of the way of an oncoming truck vs being sucked out from a fuselage plug failing).
More inconvenient? Yep, don't care.
More expensive? Maybe, don't care.
God, AI is ruining EVERYTHING.
Here, a worker is clearly being wronged and some random HR goons want the whole thing to proceed as a normal, matter-of-fact 15-minute meeting. They’re going to email severance and equipment return info anyway. Take advantage of these opportunities to make them miserably uncomfortable. In Britt’s case, they never even knew her, so it’s not like she’s going to reach out to them for a recommendation.
Older generations wonder why younger generations are "quiet quitting" and using all this anti-capitalist rhetoric when in the same breath they're sending HR goons (great term for it) to do their dirty work.
