This is tragic. Anyone who was familiar with 18F knows those were some of the real heroes of government, who helped make government tech/digital services better for the public.

They were doing real work that DOGE pretends to do, but is too ignorant to know how to do.
18F, a digital services unit inside the General Services Administration, has been completely laid off, according to an email I’ve seen. The email says that 18F was deemed “non-critical” and the decision was made with the “explicit” direction of the administration and GSA leadership.

hi bluesky! I really loved Twitter a lot and I'm really enjoying Bluesky over the last week or so. I (used to?) post about computers a lot - particularly around rust, compiler implementation, observability systems, and stuff like that.
