Why is the party of "freedom" trying to ban abortion and criminalize gender-affirming care for trans youth?

Because it doesn’t actually care about freedom. It cares about power.

They have literally hardcoded an elon flag in the algorithm. What a terrible piece of engineering.

This is what an engineer does when they know better but they have a massive twat as a boss.

In reply to @annaecook.

@annaecook I think you should put it after your name, you earned it. Plus, that mediocre dude applying for the same job you are will definitely list the letters attached to his degree or his certs to his name, and if you don't do the same it'll be assumed you don't have said degree.
