What would you like to know? Stress testing happens well in advance, content's on enterprise CDNs.
Legacy systems are probably the greatest risk, the "if engineers with critical knowledge of those systems aren’t there" part rings true there.
- Molitor5901 2y agoI'd like to know how that impacts their reporting strategy and what their contingency plan is for it. I'm also curious if they've considered hiring outside or international assistance to fill the gaps; not sure the NLRB considerations but easier to ask forgiveness than permission? Have they considered riding it out and seeing what happens? I'm just curious of the inside thinking of management with how to deal with this unique situation.
- newtonyorkshire 2y agoGreat questions, stuff in the newsroom is handled by a separate union, the NewsGuild - funny you mention the NLRB, they just filed suit against NYT related to the strike: https://www.axios.com/2024/10/22/nyt-newsguild-labor-charge-nlrb https://www.axios.com/2024/10/22/nyt-newsguild-labor-charge-... On a technical side NYT certainly haven't considered "riding it out" but instead boring, predictable contingency and fallback. The TechGuild union membership is not mandatory (neither is striking). Hiring strikebreakers in NYC is illegal. https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/newyorkcity/latest/NYCadmin/0-0-0-39661 https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/newyorkcity/latest/NYC...
