It’s Twitter’s responsibility to not only offer severance, but make sure employees keep an emergency fund?

Where's Twitter's emergency fund?

Here's a great explainer on why this is bad idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGGOjD_OtAM

What on earth did Brexiteers think was going to happen

I'd wager some wanted this to happen, it makes buying up public infrastructure and companies very cheap. The sale of ARM just after the referrendum is just one example.

Here's an anecdote echoing many of the other comments:

I attended an event about AI ethics a couple of years ago, many of the panelists were getting very excited about the upcoming AI eithics guidlines from the IEEE and how it would set a gold standard for state level AI development. They were completely unaware that the IEEE already has a general code of ethics[0], which many governments implicitly require engineers in certain roles to ignore.

motivational speech, "networking," pretension, and pretend work

This.

I'm in the same boat, my company has some space in one in London. It's exactly as you describe plus noisy. I really can't figure out what the people around us do all day as they always seem to chatting. Fortunately we're able to work from home, which I've taken to doing more recently, especially as the beer tends to almost always be out by the time I finish work.

I'm a non-American as well. Hate is a strong word, but it is terrifying having someone so stupid in charge of a huge nuclear arsenal.

OK, those of us who know better travel without phones, what about people who don't know better but have received information from me? The data about me on their phone cannot be protected by me.

It's pretty much the same, but I wanted something completely random for pull request comments and I'm not worried about sizing :).

Thanks :).

Stack wise it's a very simple web proxy written in Go, nothing fnacy. It basically just responds to every request with a random Nic Cage gif hosted on Imgur. The URLs are just an array in the source code itself. MVP and all that ;).

Here's the source code in Gist (without the full array) https://gist.github.com/janstenpickle/975358c427e8af844ae7.

Also sorry for being "that guy" but I have to point out that SSL is not used anywhere in the app, including the credit card entry in the billing section.

Nice work though! :)
