Things are about to get worse thanks to the US neocons disrupting oil supply.
Been using Jenkins since before it was called Jenkins. It's been in use at every corpo I've worked for. It can practically do anything. Especially coupled with Docker.
That's not certain to be true. Also the existence of these guns can be helpful to an organized resistance, should one appear. So if I were in the US and could afford it, I'd get some weapons and store them for whenever needed, by whoever, not necessarily me. Worst case scenario (or best) - they never get used.

This Frank McCourt guy seems to be behind some investor consortium bidding to buy TikTok called The People's Bid for TikTok. A consortium also joined by fucking Kevin O'Leary. From their website:
The People’s Bid for TikTok is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for Americans to reclaim their digital identities and have a voice, choice, and stake in the future of the internet.
A bunch of billionaires bidding for TikTok are dressing this as "people's bid." Fucking surreal.
