Again, how is that a remote problem? Sounds like a leadership, communication & project management problem. Everyone being in an office doesn't magically solve those problems.

You direct hired or hired as contractors? Your HR platform handled global benefits and payroll with little to no added effort or expense? There were no additional legal regulations or compliance issues you had to consider? I could see a nim

I agree on the latter, measure deliverables & people's contributions to the deliverables. Having paranoia that someone is working two jobs, so you need people in office or you need to install aggressive spyware is extreme.

I agree that one should not deceive their employer. At the same time, if their employer does not notice a drop in productivity/performance from the employee, what's that say about that company's ability to actually measure em

So in dysfunctional organizations force managers to keep poorly performing employees? This is somehow related to remote work how? Such a problem exists regardless of where the employee is working.

I don't think that's much of an endorsement of in-office collaboration if you need the power to go out to actually focus and get work done.

With the some of the new AMD Epyc CPUs having over 1GB of L3 cache, you could run a pretty full-featured Linux distro + app entirely in cache.

I think he's saying consumers need to actually hold sellers accountable for not following through. Though this is arguably one of the biggest reasons market capitalism often gives us poor results. People tolerate too much, are gullible

Sub and ship reactors are effectively sealed units that are not intended to be refueled on a regular basis. They can be serviced and refueled eventually, but it is a major overhaul to do so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2

I agree, absolute freedom doesn't mean a desirable outcome will occur for individuals or society, or that freedom even remains the defacto standard. Free markets are often a vacuum waiting for a bully to fill & exploit.

That sounds like you're twisting the facts to fit a narrative. It's not clear a report was made by the first investigator.

I appreciate you citing the source, but that doesn't seem to back up the statement "he commissioned it and didn't like the result". He commissioned it, was advised of a potential conflict of interest, and dispatched a di

You cannot ask your dad or my dad or WW2 vets if it's an accurate depiction? People shouldn't assume fiction is fact, but that doesn't mean fiction cannot contain facts. I don't think anyone is saying you should cite fic

Ford had some fire-related recalls recently[1]. Interestingly one of them was for hybrids, but not due to the battery. It was due to the heat shielding placement and that there was a decent chance of fire in the event of an engine failure f

Can you then cite where you read he commissioned it and didn't like the result?

No it's not a misunderstanding of what you wrote. > He said the documentary nailed what it was actually like. The hollywood version, nope. Here you are comparing a fictional film with a documentary and dismissing the ability for fi

Okay? Some WW2 veterans couldn't watch the Normandy invasion scene in Saving Private Ryan because it was too realistic. My dad said Apocalypse Now had its moments of accuracy regarding Vietnam. I don't know why you keep repeating

If we want governmental mandates to regulate social media, let's do it. Make it law that crackpot ideas MUST be shared, and limit exactly how platforms can moderate their platform. The problem with this approach is that in the quest fo

Well if nothing else, allowing such posts to propagate and be reinforced has the side effect of legitimizing them. Tagging posts as misleading is certainly one strategy, but people also complain about that being censorship or a conspiracy a

The housing market was significantly different 7 years ago[1]. I'll agree that if you bought in your 20s as a millennial, you're in a much better position. Impossible to replicate that today though. 1. https://fred.stlou
