It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

not to dox myself too hard or anything but i literally write enterprise software that would definitely still have to exist in some form even in a communist society without regressing in technology, which is about as close as you can get to genuinely meaningful and helpful work in comp sci next to writing software for planes and MRIs, and there’s still so much bullshit to slog through. bureaucracy and excessive meetings about business and marketing that really aren’t that relevant to me writing code, it’s a lot sometimes, and even the parts of my job that aren’t bullshit are still pretty much busy work a lot of the time. anyway i really just want to say there’s more useful disciplines of engineering than building bridges, it’s a little reductive to limit being useful to society to just that, some of us going on the computer guys are still trying to do good work yknow? thank you
