why allbery is a very bad person

[rone]

Speaking of systems administration in The Other Place:

rone: I'd love the job more if the industry weren't overrun with fuckheads at all levels.

Nix: But that's true of *all* jobs, and all humanity, everywhere, forever.

rone: No, man, what we have here in Silicon Valley is far from fucking normal.

allbery: Which is why you need to fund my new startup based around XML modelling of Facebook relationships, through which it's possible to build a metadata repository of all interesting people in the world and hire only perfect employees!  I call it WebHire 3.0!  It will revolutionize the way that people work by letting them conduct all interpersonal relationships through Twitter!

I like komrade Party leader allbery's general dea of WebHire 3.0, but I think that he needs to add an addendum to it, that showes that he has not been corrupted by the Moral Disintegration Rays of Evil Liberalism and their modern seXular Humanism that degenerates all things into merely Historico-Materialistic Dialectics, and attempts to raise up mere SysAdds, and OpsPerKin to the level of being actual human beings like TheCoolKids[dm]. I mean, look what that sort of evil has done...

*Sigh* I need to find the CFT to catch up on that place; I've fallen way too far behind. No matter where I hide, though, the dark sarcasm leaks across the Internet toward me.

My feelings exactly. I barely have time to catch up with Debian...

This sounds like the sort of idea I'd see on XKCD.

Yeah, that was a classy post that one... I am actually up-to-date with that place at the moment.

The best employees of all don't have Facebook accounts, so you'd be screwing yourselves on that one, bucko.

And then you can get a personal asst. The Twitter CEO just advertised for one. 30 people, no business model. "I need a cabin boy."
