I encountered Rails after WebObjects and my impression was that it was a slow reimplementation of WebObjects with a much worse developer experience. Steve Jobs’ keynote where he introduced WebObjects and the Enterprise Object Framework had a demo that was basically the same as the first learn Rails example and it required about half as much code, eight years before Rails was released.

But everything I read from the Rails people talked as if they’d invented all of these ideas and not just made a slow and bad clone of an existing product.

I largely ignored Ruby and Rails as a result, my only experience with the rest of the adjacent Ruby ecosystem was that they kept claiming to have invented things that Smalltalk had been doing for 20 years before the Ruby people encountered the ideas, in a language whose implementation somehow managed to be slower than the slowest Smalltalk implementation.

There is XING which is EU centric, but I been there is years so I cannotvsay what it is like today!

I should add I used to know the founder back in 2006 and was on podcasts with the LinkedIn CISO after being deleted, and was told several times I could get special help to restore my account. I refused.

similarly I deleted my Facebook account in 2009 with a warning in 2011 that the Russian backed moderation was unsafe for democracy.

Try writing another post, where you:
- note the increasing popularity of Omarchy
- mention some other ideas promoted by him, including ethnic cleansing and racial purity, preferably including quotes from his blog
- note the dangers of such rhetoric and how it relates to the nazi ideology (if you are able to find quotes from the nazi propaganda that would sound similar, I think it would be beneficial)

on Polish linkedin there is a guy named Jan Blew who writes about relations between bigtech and the nazi ideology, and I don't think his posts are being removed

@bizzfed

People don’t have to leave the old one, they just need to join the new one first.

@glyph @nette

Maybe try reversing the job search? Have people in pools and have companies request to interview them. Because afaict, the current model doesn't work great.
