Fuck DHH and his middling-ass vibeslopped Linux fuckshit.

The only thing preventing us from pursuing Riot is my first year being remote employment in Texas. We’re California law applied, they would be in clear violation of section 970, liable for double damages, and worse.

Keep in mind, three days prior the manager provided full rental references, agreed to provide access to a practically undocumented application required to reimburse expenses, etc.

While we’re at it - Riot intentionally screwed both me and my partner over with respect to relocation. Continuing to promise support for our transition to Washington up until the day before my last day…when we signed the lease and paid the $6k in deposits + first month’s rent.

I learned a lot both halves, but most importantly to be incredibly wary of teams eager to slot you into “first of kin roles without proper support.

Long story short, Riot Games was for the first six months one of the most incredible places I’ve worked. For the latter six it was one of the absolute worst and most toxic.

I left Riot Games. While I have signed a severance agreement, I can talk about “harassment or workplace violations” that occurred, so in short order: - New team refused to use correct pronouns - Absentee manager for two months - Verbal and text workplace abuse

Twice this year I’ve learned (the hard way) about getting shot in the ass by poor management. MAN does it make me want to be sour, but I’m also too stubborn to let it get me down.

So for those of y’all that saw the 2XKO news - please give the team a big hug. They’re really cool. They deserve the best.

Every time some CEO brings up AI I’m going to just start asking them about artificial insemination and I’m 99.999% sure it’ll get them to finally shut the fuck up about it.

Y’all are so cool so always (this was epic).

I need someone to yell at me every time I try to push and forget to log on to the VPN. Please, anyone.

So I’m a staff engineer at Riot Games and I fucking love my team and I AM SO STOKED.

We’ll need more evidence of this to be sure! After all, we can’t just leave that people throwing Molotov cocktails at billionaires houses actually gets them to start correcting their behavior to chance! 😤

I…have no words to express how much dread, anger…all of it I feel…

I’m profoundly immunocompromised. Exposure at a mass public rally will make me really sick, and then I’m no help to anyone!

I hate how I’m stuck here, refreshing the news page, waiting to see not if but how much horror we are capable of.

It’s not just that I don’t feel good enough, it’s that I’m tired of being told I’m good - and if I could just Jumbotron if b two or three more arbitrary hoops better I might achieve glorious success and recognition.

I used to be excited to work in tech, but this entire decade has left an increasingly sour taste in my mouth about a field that sees obsessed with making everyone not born into or blessed with immeasurable wealth disposable.

More than anything, it needs to feel actually *nice to use*. So much of observability tooling and test tooling *still* has gnarly, very sharp edges.

Ada Lündhé @adalundhe.dev · 30/01/2026

4. The tooling needs to facilitate more than rapid scaling of linear happy paths - it needs to be able to ingest and utilize past metrics around usage patterns, traffic levels, etc.

140

Ada Lündhé @adalundhe.dev · 30/01/2026

3. The results and insight need to be dimension rich but carefully selected, customizable by engineers to gather the information *they* need to act, and work with/enhance standards like OTel.

Ada Lündhé @adalundhe.dev · 30/01/2026

2. Such tooling needs to be “write once, scale anywhere”. The simulation needs to scale and work whether running on an engineer’s laptop or a sophisticated multi-region deployment.

Ada Lündhé @adalundhe.dev · 30/01/2026

I genuinely enjoyed reading this. I have additional thoughts on the loop. 1. Rapid feedback and iteration necessitates not just observability but fundamentally different test tooling that treats test as simulation, not box checking.
