The problem I see are big companies with several products trying to break down silos between the products to share some infrastructure (be it code, libs, actual cloud infra, support teams, design systems etc) when there is very little overl

by DanielHB 3y ago
The whole point of the article is that silos are not intrinsically bad, partially because silos reduces communication (and therefor managers) required Two teams agreeing on an API between themselves instead of one mega team fulfilling the n

I think the main problem is because the reward from your innovative ideas being successful was not tied to the team members own rewards. Startup founders get crazy rich or get nothing so they will do their damnest to get their ideas to deli

yeah that is the case in Sweden as well, but you can also scan at checkout if you want. The random checks are the same for either, but there is no weight system or cameras or rfid or anything else besides the random checks to prevent theft

One of the best parts of running your own company one-person or small consulting company is to decide when and how you pay taxes. So, for example, you can work for a while, build up capital in the company and then not work for a while still

In Sweden most of the population is covered by district heating. I think it is mostly a matter of population density, in Sweden most people live in 3-6 floor residential buildings clustered together close to public transport hubs. In Canada

Assuming no prior knowledge KDE-plasma powered PC is easier to use for the average user (mostly browser-only) compared to windows these days Windows just really became a mess UI-wise, not only in its settings menu but it is bleeding to thei

Grid-storage batteries are not only viable today it is also very attractive cost-wise, but not for the reason you might think. They are not meant to be "dumping place" for excess green energy (although they can be used for that),
