I think this is more geared towards orgs that are not really remote. They're just replicating the office environment online. In order for this to work I'd have to work all day with a camera on my face, if I understood this correct

Almost anything FB (and FAANG) builds is hyped to infinity. Everyone drank the cool aid on this one. React and GraphQL are extremely hyped. People build static HTML pages with React because... React. People use GraphQL APIs because... Graph

Every stat? Wow. I'd be very interested in reading some of this material if you could link to some. If you take a shitty driver and compare it to an AI, I doubt the AI will perform worse when it comes to preventing accidents. Sure, a s

I meant cars driven by humans. Edited right after I posted.

Cars driven by humans kill people at a higher rate than this shitty AI, why doesn't anyone care then? I don't understand this point of view. Cars WILL kill people with AI or humans driving. AI is not great right now, but it's

I think OP means: > is largely unprecedented "in the US". As others stated, if the US wants to start using China as a country to base its precedents on, that's even more concerning in my view.

Fair points. Although this does open another hole for companies like Amazon/Google to, for example, repackage Redis as their "product" and sell it too. But as you said, these are different discussions altogether :)

> At the same time, you can also study how Kubernetes does the job, and come up with radical superior solutions. I feel that's a bit of a reach. A small team will magically come up with something better than hundreds/thousands

I agree with the author that this expectation everyone has that things are actually free hurts everyone. Some people say they'd pay for Firefox. Some say they'd support it, but nothing outside of the main browser. But are there re

Too bad nobody thinks whether or not they need the flexibility in the first place. MVPs with single clients using GraphQL for flexibility that is not needed or used are common. GraphQL is a hammer, and now every project is a nail. Anecdotal

Maybe you have a very good and ethical employer, but my anecdotal evidence tells me it's not the rule, it's the exception. Why is it okay for an owner to try to squeeze every penny he can out of his employees but not okay for the

It is absolutely still rampant. I could count at least 5 cheater encounters in the last 30 days (blatant cheaters, btw). They try their best to isolate cheaters with a "trust factor" system but the reality is, unless you pay an ex

Which is also a hard thing to do on small teams. I think for small teams this is a near impossible task. For big corporations it should be doable and expected. They actually have some leverage to push the other big companies to track less.

It's probably even more profitable to invest in lobbying and prevent the government from ever doing anything meaningful to them in the first place. The problem with the assumption that governments can do something is that it relies on

> Walk and cannot be replaced We live in a world where 99.9999999999999% of people are completely replaceable. Specially for a trillion dollar company. Unfortunately that stance is naive in my opinion.

They learned that being a lawyer earns you prestige and lots of money. Compare that to computer science and being viewed as a geek, nerd, loner. Even though it's less bad at this day and age, it's not even comparable to medicine a

On the large scale, I think Orwell's view is correct. The pattern always repeats itself. However on the individual level, you can reap the benefits of the revolutions and will die before the next cycle, so there's always at least

That may be true for us, tech savvy users. Imagine your grandma getting phishing emails from banks. If only 1% goes through, because Google is a bit more lenient on the detection, I can see the phishing success rate going through the roof.

I've seen many job adverts that specifically cited "seeing Github contributions" as a requirement. I don't see how that is not enforcing free work. You could say that you can choose to not apply to that company, but not

Nobody said that. You're projecting. I only added that side-note because I believe the majority of our SOCIETY wants to LOSE WEIGHT (nothing to do with veganism) to look better under the guise of healthiness. Which is fine, I guess. I

I always tell my wife that the easiest way to get healthy is to become poor. No more restaurants and you're golden. Jokes aside, I feel we all underestimate how much eating out and/or socially forces you to eat more than necessary

I wish I had the mental strength to forego one of the few pleasures of life without looking back. It's amazing to me how someone can (almost) exclusively eat vegetables and enjoy it. Is it all about habits? Genes? Everyone says that ta

NVIDIA ones. I tried with proprietary, MESA and Nouveau. Never managed to get the same experience as on Windows. It's a shame, because it literally can't be anything but the software. It's the same hardware with different OSe

While I agree it seems like it lets them off the hook, that's not on them, it's on the society that shrugs that off as "normal". But if you follow the logical path from capitalism, it is most definitely inevitable. There

NVIDIA GTX960 with an i7 and 16 GB of memory. That's not the issue. I'd argue if it was the issue, even Windows wouldn't let me play any of these games with reasonable performance.
