That’s kind of my point. $18 per person is a ridiculous cost. They have a population of ~37,000 people. It would be less inexcusable if it were in Dallas (~1.3m). I mean, police stations don’t need vehicles like that at all, but it’s even more disgusting that a town that small spent money on that.

It’s part of the Dallas/Ft Worth metro, but that cost is something like $18 per person in the town.

They did. But now he’s taking money from the wrong people instead of the right people.

They’ll have leveled the entirety of Raffah, so now most/all of Gaza is almost uninhabitable. “I mean, we gonna bomb the rubble? Sure we’ll sign a cease fire. It never stopped us before”

I’ve worked on supposed “Agile” teams that operate this way, and worked on an Agile team that actually work ridiculously well. The biggest issue with Agile isn’t the philosophy, it’s when management starts using it to cut costs. This comment is what it turns into. Notice that every single one of these points lower cost. But one of the main assumptions of Agile is that the workers control the work, managers support the workers. The places I’ve been where Agile didn’t work it was because management was unwilling to buy into this basic assumption, then use Agile as a crutch for not giving the team what they needed to be successful.

The one successful team I was on that was Agile, the entire group of around 12 worked directly with the customer, and our manager’s role was to ask “what do you need”. It was hands down the best dev role I was ever in (before I became a teacher).

Yup. Except this time the president won’t hold back the military like Trump did.

Ask for an itemized bill.

She is a moderate in the Democratic Party at this point, unfortunately. Hell, I think Reagan would be a moderate in today’s Democratic Party. All the more reason we should be running more progressive candidates.

I am also really sick of hearing this crap from Biden supporters. “Oh, so you’re just going to let Trump win?” MF my life has gotten worse under Biden because Democrats didn’t do anything when they held the Senate, House, and Presidency all at the same time.

So now my state’s Republicans have proceeded to take away rights of queer folks and women with almost no resistance. Now when Republicans pushed through a school voucher program, tons of resistance. Emails, organizing, etc. But the NEA has money, and queer folks don’t.
