While I believe this is a clbuttic in the making, I have to wonder about the professional appropriateness of such a thing, especially in $CURRENT_YEAR.

Exactly. These butts are highly problematic. They promote an unhealthy and unattainable butt image. We need more butt diversity, more real butts - thicc butts, old butts, slagging butts.

This seems like the sort of thing that will get used in many small teams' internal communications, and occasionally cause awkward situations when someone outside the team gets wind of them.

They're definitely not appropriate for all workplaces, but for small, more informal teams, this sort of thing can help build a culture and encourage teamwork.

It really depends on the company and unit culture.

I'd love to see a correlation graph showing the time this was posted to HN, and the server load on the Slack-emoji image-importing service. Pretty sure these are going to become hotkeys in a lot of workplaces.

I sure hope not. I can't think of anything more inappropriate.

Wish this had existed at the beginning of my career.

It's a shame it has come at the tail of your career, instead. :(

Does anyone know what app the kanban board screenshot is about 25% of the way down the page?

How did this trash make it to the front page of HN?
