This article is laughable and clearly biased. The examples he's given are almost certainly out of context and the way he praises himself for being an "outstanding" manager and employee also says a lot about that person.

This is not a divisive issue, the account that raised the issue is most likely fake, the person behind it intended to trigger and divide people and they succeeded at that. The world is no paradise, you will never satisfy everyone nor should

> Mirantis launches Kubernetes as a Service (KaaS) How is this a key takeaway? There are dozens of Kubernetes as a service offerings, why is this one considered a key takeaway? This is a genuine question, not being sarcastic or cynica

Go ahead and call me bigot, this is the most ludicrous conflict I've ever seen. The fact that someone can be fired for "misgendering" is just beyond belief. Look, people all over the world are living in poverty, starving, dyi

I'm sorry, but like I already stated, both tweets you linked were published after the initial story went viral. I'm not saying these people are lying, I'm saying I tend to take such revelations with a grain of salt after read

How come none of that came into light before the leak of his emails? This is quite curious, don't you think? I've read the emails and from the looks of it he just says that there's not enough evidence to condemn someone for t

This doesn't sound like freedom, look what the western society turned into. Interesting times we live in.

Someone who uses Kubernetes on a daily basis here. The visualisation thing looks like a nice to have feature, but nothing a K8s administrator can't live without. What's really interesting is the yaml generator tool. This is someth

I couldn't agree more with this, the constant requests to restart drive me nuts. It wouldn't have been so bad if it happened once a day, but 2-3 times make the usage as annoying as it can get.

The problem is that it's the point behind the construct called "stablecoin". It's called stable because in theory one coin should be worth one dollar and all(most?) companies behind such coins claim that all issued coins

It feels like Google eventually started disciplining disobedient employees. I mean, can you imagine Goldman Sachs bankers organising a protest to express their dissatisfaction with certain decisions their upper management makes? They would

That's a shortsighted view. If China is ever going to war with the US they sure as hell are going to use every bit of your data against your and other US citizens.

That's probably only half of the story. Facebook is already a monopoly and with their endless resources they don't need government's help to marginalise their competition. I suspect the real reason is preemptive strike, Zucke

It comes down to whether your ambition is to do something you like/interests you or something that you're doing solely to impress people that ask about what you do for a living.

Software developers are human beings. This analogy may seem inadequate, but don't you also struggle to see how certain human beings are willing to physically hurt or kill other human beings? This also goes against all values and morale

It's absurd that you can actually waive any of your legal rights... Seriously, this is bonkers. After the #MeToo movement revealed that forced arbitration has been used to keep sexual harassment complaints quiet, a handful of companie

I'm halfway through the article so far, but I didn't perceive the message as complaining about PKI being "too complex". The author outlines the fact that some aspects of PKI or certificate design are basically remnants o

Thank you for formalising this, I get your point and I see what you're signalling, but I disagree with the solution you're proposing. Let me explain why. Firstly, I never said Helsinki's approach will completely solve the pro

The way I see it is you're trying to solve this problem in the wrong place, just like you said, the real issue lies elsewhere and this is precisely where we should direct our efforts to fix it. If fewer women decide to pursue a technic

Implementing a counter-bias will not solve the problem but introduce artificial noise which will obscure data and hide the real issues.

Obviously. That's the entire point of hiring, as a business owner I want to hire the candidate that will deliver the best results. There is no doubt that certain people are privileged early in their lives, that's how it has always

I'm sorry, but this sounds absurd. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what you're saying implies that employers should hire people that are less qualified for a job just because they belong to a group, members of which on average a

Although you are obviously right and YTs censorship is well known, these are two unrelated things and an argument like that to justify bad law (which will not only affect YT, but other platforms as well) is inappropriate.

Apologies, I should have been more clear as I intended to point out an example, not a fixed quota, because clearly if you consider diversity when making a hiring decision you inevitably have to end up aiming to hire more people of certain c

To me the notion of a need for diversity in a workplace is absurd. Seriously, whats the point? There are and always have been professions dominated by men and those dominated by women. From the perspective of an employer, gender, skin colou

And how would that work? Google and Facebook could charge more for ads which impacts mostly the advertisers, Amazon could in fact increase the prices impacting average Joes in the UK, but they would lose the advantage over smaller competiti
