Is there any fast way to populate a list with everyone you are already following?

I wrote an open source script for this a while ago, it's annoying to run due to Twitter API limits https://github.com/KrauseFx/twitter-unfollow

Thank you for writing that and mentioning it. I used it 3x without regenerating credentials the last two times. When Twitter stopped processing, I just waited 15 minutes and ran it again.

Now you're my one follow. :-)

Google just fired a dev who pushed in some pro union messages into a security tool. All it takes is a rubber stamp from another engineer.

Those pro union messages were informing employees of their rights, and part of the dev's responsibilities were informing employees of their rights. Wasn't the message also only shown on relevant pages?

No, informing employees about labor was not part of the dev’s responsibilities. This employee was not in the HR department and the tool was not for HR-related messages. It was for security warnings.
