We must lower the cost of living for working people in America. And to do that, Congress must pass the Build Back Better Act.

Doing a deep dive into some of the tools of our trade. Today, I'm reading up on the Git wire protocol. I don't anticipate the need to write code at this layer, but peeking one or two layers of abstraction down can be very illuminating.

Today, my Administration is extending the pause on federal student loan repayments for an additional 90 days — through May 1, 2022 — as we manage the ongoing pandemic and further strengthen our economic recovery.

Work gave us really nice holiday presents! (Especially compared to Oracle, who gave us a 14x7 on call schedule for everyone and a lump of coal.) Have had several Holy Shit moments using the Oculus Quest 2 in the package. Despite Meta involvement, it's *really* cool hardware.

If you have to deploy the military to support hospitals you may have spent your budget on the wrong part of the system given the challenges we actually face.

This is the last thing I'll say. I'm intentionally placing these two things right next to each other so you have to engage with both of them. Know your value and ask for what you're worth. But make sure you know how to be awesome first. That takes time.

I'm not telling you to quit your job today. I'm not saying you can't give it some time to see if things changes. Sometimes they do. What I am saying is if you are getting signals that the people you want recognition from don't understand why you're awesome, believe it.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

What you shouldn't do is try to hard to stay in a situation where your work is not valued. Where you're trying to *convince* the powers that be to recognize and reward you. That's a waste of your valuable time and also a damage to your sense of self. Don't do it.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

This is an important nuance. Remember I said the value you bring depends on the situation. If you want to keep doing what you're doing, go find the people who value that thing. It can be tough, but also hugely rewarding to find your place.

@wegladlyfeast this part is so true. I've been repeatedly praised for work in my current role that I've been told to stop doing in past roles

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

The hardest part of this message often goes unsaid. (Especially for younger people who think they know everything already). You need to be ready to hear that the things you're doing aren't as valuable as you think they are. Learning what matters and what doesn't is critical.

Thanks @TVGuide for your 20 Best Performances of 2021 especially for mentioning the criminal aspect of underreporting my performance. A zero tolerance policy is warranted! All my @ResidentAlien cast mates should be mentioned as well with me even in projects we don’t appear please

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

This message resonated with me because it acknowledges that working hard sometimes is an important part of the plan. Especially early in your career. You have to gain experience and learn how to be awesome. There's no substitute for hard work there.

“work smart, not hard.”

yes, but you have to work hard for a while before you can understand what working smart looks like. read, research, and plan—but do the work, too. allow your failures to illuminate the path in front of you.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

The important thing to understand is this. You want to get rewarded for the *value* you bring. You do not want that to be tied to how many hours you work or how intensely you work. That is a recipe for burnout. Or at least for feeling overworked and underappreciated.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

What gets you recognized and rewarded is way more situational and way less predictable than people want to believe. In order to know how to get ahead, you have to understand what kind of organization you're in and how it operates.

@ewarren ("Elizabeth Warren") wrote:

I’m deeply grateful for everyone who joined this fight, called on the administration to extend the pause, and got this done. Raising your voice matters. It’s how we make change, and it’s how we’re going to take the next step to #CancelStudentDebt.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") wrote:

I've gone back and forth on the right nuance here. What I tell people is to work hard on your own growth. Don't find yourself working hard because you expect that you'll magically be recognized and rewarded for it. That's often not how it goes, and it's a hard lesson for people.

Breaking: AZ commission (two Rs, two Ds, one tie-breaker) votes *unanimously* to approve new congressional map that would've split 5-4 for Biden in 2020.

But #AZ01 (Biden +1.4) and #AZ06 (Biden +0.1) are highly tenuous, so GOP has a great opportunity to go 6R-3D in 2022.
