Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post, there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
I’m feeling uncreative but it’s a shame giggle academy is taken
“painter news” could be a nice jab at PG’s “Hackers & Painters”
we don’t want to mislead the actual painters
I would gladly take any number of actual painters over some of the programmers I’ve had to deal with contributing to open source projects

oh I’ve heard of that dev - apparently they really like to focus on areas with wide impact! just the sort of dev you want in your team!
has very helpful friends too
speaking of networks, I saw this yesterday and it sure gave me some feelings
“bikeshed painters club” comes to mind, but probably also too long
ooh i like “bikeshed painting” or variants
“bikeshed systems” maybe? nicely memorable (and matches pattern of current tld) too
“Cathedral Central”
