From what I can tell, the 18F group within the federal government was one of the most effective teams at bringing modern software practices and modernizing many government agencies' approach to technology. Laying off people in this group seems antithetical to improving government efficiency.
I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Wowza @cloudflare.social's AI Gateway is a must use 😮

Super simple to drop-in if you're already using @sdk.vercel.ai

Literally just specify the `baseUrl` and that's it developers.cloudflare.com/ai-gateway/i...

You get so much goodness out of the box from Cloudflare that it's a no-brainer ✨
