  • I have either written or gotten a variant of every single one of these comments 🫠:

    Please include the JIRA task in the commit title.

    Did you run any manual testing?

    Where’s the PRD link in the commit message?

    Can you please split this into multiple smaller commits?

    Can you combine these two commits?

    Did you email Jon about this because he’s working on that project with Sarah and you might be duplicating efforts.

    This should be named BarFoo instead of FooBar.

    Why aren’t you using CorporateInternalLib16 that does 90% of this?

    Why aren’t you using ThirdPartyPaidLibByExEmployee?

    Why aren’t you using StandardLib thing you forgot existed?

    All our I/O should be async.

    All our hot loop code needs to be sync.

    This will increase latency of NonCoreBusinessFlow by 0.01%. can you shave some time off so we can push in feature B also?

    Please add a feature flag so we can do gradual rollout.

    What operational levers does this have?

    Lgtm - just address those comments















  • I have to say that this is the most color I’ve seen in months on the actual reasons why. On first read, it gives an understanding that both sides are willing to approach a deal - but lack trust in the process and the mediators ability to coerce the other side to actually commit and follow through.

    A more cynical read (my second one) through this is that Hamas is still viewing civilian hostages as an asset and leverage. They are hesitant to get a six week ceasefire because they think they should get more than that for civilian hostages. Recent reports are making it clear that Hamas is executing the hostages. Whether as part of their negotiations, a breakdown in discipline, or just simple evil - the mediators have failed to impress upon Hamas the depth of their strategic mistake.










  • Thank you for explaining your rationale.

    I think you are dangerously wrong. How do you suggest to prevent violence? some of the issues you are facing are historically Jewish neighborhoods in east Jerusalem launching terror attacks against settlers living there who purchased the land their grandparents were forced from (the actual situation is even more complicated than this one sentence explanation). Now imagine needing to solve that, but on a very large scale.

    If you suddenly grant Palestinians full rights and movement, there is nothing preventing them from launching a genocidal campaign against Jewish Israelis. Hamas, PIJ, and other Palestinian groups have declared they will not stop until all Jews within Israel are dead.

    Your rationale for wanting a one state solution is idealistic, but ultimately naive. It fails to capture the complexity of the conflict and serves to further violent interests while screaming their slogan.
