I think they thought they were honest and doing things properly, and didn't realize that their holding of FTT was making them as bad as the other frauds before. I think these ouroboros are complex enough that even main players don'

When I feel this way, I contemplate getting an ATP and trying to become a pilot for the airlines. Glorified taxi driver, doing a well defined task day in day out. Work schedule is some weeks on, weeks off. So, a regular change of pace.

To me, someone saying "wow that sucks" tells me this person doesn't bother to think about what I said and is barely spending brain space on listening to me, instead choosing to blurt out a generic platitude. Their response la

This banning of the "just" word is one of those "people are fragile" derived behavioral fashions. It's rather annoying to get stuck in the carpet's flowers in this manner. Interlocutors can meet half-way, and a

This, and why isn't there any fiberglass construction? Since most of the build isn't structural, you could use cheap insulation foam for the core (with epoxy resin, not polyester). Fiberglass is quite easy to DIY and requires almo

When I started my career 10y ago, even then it was understood that after getting in, you've got 10-15y to go before you start running out of desirability. Search "why aren't there any 20y+ devs", it's not a new phen

Many make decent cars, even good cars (Hyundai) but they don't make better EVs than Tesla. Hyundai might be there in terms of value IFF the non-Tesla charging network wasn't so abysmal. I drove multiple manufacturers and currently

Some stuff just takes time to manual test, e.g. if you provision multiple cloud resources and must coordinate them. Or anything involving some sort of multi step process. If you want to ship quickly, you want a test suite to save you the tr

Okay? Some products take more than just a few lines of codes and a few days to build. Absolutist opinions aren't useful. Also, just about everything can be construed as being tied to revenue. Not a useful heuristic.

Lots of folk forget: you don't need to sign! You can rewrite and send back, seek counsel to evaluate what you're signing and reword things. Negotiate or ultimately refuse to sign.

It boggles my mind when people vest RSUs and just leave them there, hold onto their employers' stock and don't sell & diversify. The RSU vesting day is equivalent to having bought the stock on that day, there's no tax adv

An empty house will turn bad faster than a rented out house. Give it to a property manager for the time it's rented, and when you move back in, do a remodel. With tenants in the house, you'll be doing regular maintenance anyways,

I've been enjoying using OpenSCAD whenever I can (instead of Fusion 360). The language is a bit janky but it's great for hacking something up in a purely procedural manner, and using Git.

JVM is not good for tooling, at least not in comparison to Go or Rust, which are both faster to write, easier to distribute and faster to execute for short lived CLI invocations.
