'Irish congressman acting as representative for a district made up of Irish people supports Irish style bill in shocking twist'
John's naivety when it comes to politics would force a chuckle or wry smile were he in his early 20s, but since he's 40 year old man in a dress it's just elicits a tired 'Fuck off'.' You're elected to serve the interests of the people you represent not force your ideas on them you dictatorial ghoul. People believe stupid shit/want stupid shit and part of being in the politics racket is having to curb, rethink or just downright abandon your convictions if you want to get anywhere. This isn't a Disney Marvel film, Fl*nt.

John unintentionally reveals in this tweet that riding Uber is the only time he meets new people. Yes, John you know so little that any, and I say ANY Uber driver can teach you a lot.

The misplaced self-importance required to flaunt acting like a decent person as something revolutionary is unfathomable. Most people will be pleasant or chat to a driver and think nothing of it + have no desire to grandstand to the world about it. Jesus Christ this is why the left is a laughing stock. The whole patronising 'I interact with the poors! Look at me everyone! Some of them know things, crazy huh??' thing really is tragic and just as, if not more, out of touch than using 'Quiet Uber'.

Paid for from minerals mined from asteroids presumably.
John you are so right, this is corruption of the highest order. But anyway try not to think about it too much or it might ruin your Disneyworld vacation paid for by your donors.

Wu doesn't even need money for her to be corrupt. Any lobbyist from Apple could convince her to support rounding up Android users and gassing them just by telling her that Tim Cook would think she was cool if she did it.

John's technobabble generator tweets are both my favorites and the most likely to pop a blood vessel in my brain.

I wouldn't order a silent ride, and I generally don't mind chatting a bit, but sometimes accents are so thick to the point it becomes tedious to follow a conversation. (and that's coming from someone that works around a lot of accents and generally doesn't have issue with them)
Are there any of Wu's spergy vidya posts that could be interpreted as "initiating violence" against the right?
No you don't, John.

John is the kind of dude who would lecture the Uber driver about his autistic TDS bullshit and how much solidarity he had with peons like the driver, because he has a captive audience, but then throw a screeching tantrum and claim to have been raped and murdered if the Uber driver turns around wearing a MAGA hat and tells him he's full of shit, like Tara Strong did.

It's no great trick to install such applications. Try writing one, John.

Hm...
I wonder what is he using these "large data sets" for? Did he do some regression analysis to correlate amount of soy in person's Twitter posts with likelihood of becoming his campaing paypig? I can't imagine any other use in his case...

John should kill himself.
Also this fucking idiot thinks he'd be on any committees at all after knocking out Stephen Lynch, as opposed to them refusing to seat him in anything at all, or putting him in cement overshoes and dumping him in the harbor.

People forgot those Sailor Moon drawings he reproduced/traced in Illustrator and claimed was original creations, then deleted the tweets when called out. Both times.
It's Wu-speak for installing plugins on Nation Builder, if you've dealt with wordpress you can imagine the complexity of it.
From his wording I'm 99% certain the plugin is something like changing the way the Nation Builder statistics(visitors, engagement through e-mails, stuff like that) is displayed or exported. He probably want it in some stupid Apple format for his phone.
edit: did he ever splurge on the Nation Building training seminar that they sell?

All this demonstrates how fundamentally unserious Wu is. Wu may have hired some more experienced consultants (although, being Wu of course she's fucked that up too) to give her tips on fundraising, but she can't come around to the fact that she might actually need help on policy development too. Or to be more specific, she needs people who actually know what they're talking about to write policy for her.
I don't know what kind of major hubris short circuit makes Wu not only continue to claim she is a software engineer and expert in cybersecurity but also spout this bollocks that just demonstrates she knows nothing. It's been over two years and we're still getting this ridiculous crap about data protection that hinges on Wu's complete lack of understanding of cryptosystems, in particular her belief that certificate revocation can be used to render encrypted data unretrievable.
Then we have this OSS stuff, which demonstrates Wu has never worked on any software ever. Open source is not fairy dust you sprinkle on a project to make it free. It's an intensive process that you have to be dedicated to supporting. Most government software would be utterly useless to third parties, nor realistically is there any benefit to making most software auditable by the general public (though I except software related to the operation of elections, which ideally would be small or non-existent anyway.) I can only think of a tiny handful of projects that are both deployable at serious scale and still useful to the average person, and in every case it takes the dedicated work of an entire company focused on making that happen. In reality, most government commissioned software is very task specific, poorly documented and likely to use a bunch of non-free middleware. The cost in cleaning it up for a general audience would easily double or triple the cost of every single software contract, and that's just to throw it over the fence as an abandoned code dump. Proper adoption of open source as a methodology would imply the government starting a fully fledged multi-billion dollar software company.
But we did get another outing of "salting and hashing your data" so take a shot if you're playing the Wu drinking game at home.

The was a little cheer and some tickertape and balloons that went up in my mind as I read 'salted and hashed'. DRINK!All this demonstrates how fundamentally unserious Wu is.
