Blaming Jira for your shitty software development process is like blaming oxygen for forest fires.

Brazilian prisoner spent 5 years digging a tunnel that ended up in the guard room.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is from an incident in 2012 where multiple inmates attempted to escape from a prison using a hole in the wall. The inmate in the image was too large to fit through and became trapped. It did not take 5 years, nor did it lead to a guardroom. g1.globo.com/goias/noticia/…

The EU gave protected status to people fleeing Ukraine — but that does not apply to thousands of foreign students. They may enter but must leave immediately. Many from mostly India or African countries report racism at borders, being blocked from trains or being forced to pay.

I was in a writers’ room two years ago. The white showrunner, in front of the all white staff, walked over to me, placed his hand on my shoulder and told the room that the studio will be pleased with the show’s diversity because he has his “resident Negro” right here. (1/8)

This new timetable is a joke! Regardless of signal issues today, to have 1 fast train between 9-10am (and that leaves at 09:01) from a major hub (Maidenhead) needs revising. The 09:01 is unbearably packed (delayed by 20 mins). Why don’t you listen to your customers?! @GWRHelp
