“George Roberts worked on my team as a software developer at McDonald’s Corporation. George was brought on to the team to get the project back on track. Because of George we were able to deliver our software a month early while exceeding the customer’s expectations. George is a talented and creative developer of computer software. His responsibilities included requirements gathering, analysis and design of complex Web applications using and integrating a variety of technologies. George proved himself to be a dependable employee and a hard worker with superior problem solving and technical skills. I was always impressed how George’s solutions included efficiencies that improved the end user experience while making the solutions developed deployable and supportable. George also has the ability to explain complex technical concepts that non-experts can easily understand. George keeps up to date on the newest developments in programming. His love of technology and bringing efficiencies to the end user shows in the great work he produces. I highly recommend George as a member of any team that wants to make great things happen! ”

Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis is often framed as a political or law-enforcement story. It is also, unavoidably, a software story. This article looks at how familiar technical patterns - API access, identity resolution, data enrichment, and permissive authorization models -enable surveillance and intimidation at scale. Not through exotic technology, but through ordinary, well-designed systems doing exactly what they were built to do. If you work in APIs, platforms, data, or infrastructure, this piece asks an uncomfortable question: What does responsibility look like when “just building the interface” is enough to move real power into the wrong hands? https://lnkd.in/g2Nb8e3P Thoughtful discussion welcome, especially from folks who have wrestled with these tradeoffs themselves.
