Field also objects to a passage from an article by Damon Linker in The Week listing other left-wing causes that (1) may

Today, as the Trump era limps to a close, variations on this theme continue: liberal and centrist attacks on the left and on “wokeness,” we are told, not only serve as a distraction from malfeasance on the right but also play into the hands of the “right-wing propaganda machine,” as Laura K. Field puts it in a well-received recent piece in The Bulwark.

Coding is usually the first skill that comes to mind when you think about a senior developer. This makes sense from a less experienced developer’s point of view. Less experienced developers usually have fairly straightforward tasks that are limited to fixing bugs and implementing features. Most of the time all they do is writing code so from their perspective a senior developer has to be a true coding genius.

Field has a valid point when she argues that some analysis of the left’s negative impact on the Democrats’ performance at the ballot box (evident not only in their relatively poor results in the congressional and Senate elections but in Biden’s closer-than-expected win) has relied on iffy data — specifically, exit polls that may be unreliable. I agree that, especially in an election that relied heavily on voting by mail, extrapolations from exit polls (supplemented with surveys targeting mail-in voters) require caution — particularly with regard to specific demographics such as college-educated whites. But does this necessarily undercut critiques of the left?

In recent years, those of us who have criticized leftist excesses — be it “cancel mobs” on campus or online, Antifa violence, morally troubling iconography, or assorted episodes of identity politics gone mad — have often been chided for a misplaced sense of priorities in the age of Donald Trump and the Trumpist threat to democracy.

Opposed to what you might think being a senior developer doesn’t solely have to do with years of experience. Some developers manage to get to the senior level in 3 years while others manage to do it in 10 years — and some will never reach the senior level. It’s perfectly possible for a senior developer to have fewer years of experience than a developer who hasn’t reached the level of senior yet.

Back in August, in an article warning that the protests could become a liability for Democrats in the election, I pointed out numerous instances in which both mainstream progressive outlets and a number of Democratic politicians were reluctant to condemn violence and lawlessness.

In our explanations, we (and by “we” I mean anyone, but specifically anti-“woke” liberals and centrists) should avoid the “everything validates my premises” mindset: it probably wasn’t the word “Latinx” wot done it. But there is a lot of evidence that the shift was in large part a reaction to the surge in far-left progressivism: many cited fears of socialism/communism, concerns about the Democrats being anti-oil industry, and social justice protests that turned violent. (Abortion is also a major factor, but that’s not a change from earlier years.)

ead singer of the band, The Maine, as well as my idol — tweeted this, and it just stuck with me. At the time, I was dating someone else [not my current boyfriend], and it made me realize that I no longer wanted to be in that relationship because I didn’t love myself. Unfortunately, a large part of that not loving myself came from the pressures and stress of that relationship.

On a related issue, it’s unquestionable that “defund the police” and/or “end policing as we know it” are slogans that have a sizable following among Democrats. (Although “defund” doesn’t mean “abolish,” using eliminationist language to refer to issues of safety and policing is just terrible branding.) In June, a majority of the Minneapolis City Council actually adopted a pledge to dismantle the police force and replace it with a new system of “public safety.” (Now, some council members are backing away from it and saying that “dismantle” is up for interpretation.) Abolition or even significant reduction of policing, by the way, is not a popular stance with the black community.

For instance, Field rightly challenges Andrew Sullivan’s claim, based on early exit-poll data, that college-educated white voters skewed toward Trump much more than was expected: in fact, it appears Trump’s biggest net loss in support across any demographic from 2016 to 2020 was college-educated whites, especially men. But the critique Field cites also mentions a different demographic with which Trump did have an unexpectedly good showing, though not enough to save his bacon: Hispanic voters. This apparent fact is a pretty huge slap in the face to “woke” ideological premises. It even supports a claim made by critics of “wokeness” such as Georgia State University Ph.D. candidate Zach Goldberg: that white progressives are the main driver of the recent years’ leftward shift on social issues and are now substantially to the left of minorities.

Of course, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are not radical leftists, and attempts to portray them as such by pro-Trump propagandists have been egregiously dishonest (such as repeated claims that Biden did not really condemn this past summer’s protest-related violence). But the perception that radical leftism or “wokeness” is influential in the Democratic Party and in mainstream progressive circles is hardly unfounded.

Go to bed a bit stronger — mentally and physically. Help your partner, kids, parents, siblings, friends, and expand the circle like that. I see it as a sequential thing. Start with yourself, and then expand your reach, one person at a time. We probably won’t get old enough to expand the circle to the world. But hey, it’s pretty good if you can make your own life and the lives of the people you care about better. That’s already hard enough. Just don’t make things harder by wasting time on things you don’t control. Know what you can and cannot control! That’s the Stoic’s path to a happy life. If you set a high value on happiness, everything else must be valued less. All the best.

There is no question that Trumpism is a preeminent danger; Trump’s post-election assault on democracy proves it in abundance. But there are also real dangers in ignoring or downplaying illiberalism and extremism on the left.

Some blamed far-left violence on “far-right provocateurs,” as did Wisconsin Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes after a progressive state senator was beaten up by protesters. Some backed down from statements condemning both police brutality and rioting, as Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) did on Twitter. Seattle mayor Jenny Durkan (and some mainstream media outlets) defended the city’s cop-free anarchist enclave before the rainbows-and-roses fantasy ended in two murders. And even the criticism of riots has often been weak compared to the Democrats’ full-throated condemnations of racism.

What it comes down to is the skill that you have. Not only coding skill, because being a senior developer comes with much more than just writing code. Here are five signs that tell you if someone is a senior developer.
