I’m not against a UBI but with interest rates rising the interest alone on our national debt is expected to be more than GDP and military spending combined. This is the elephant in the room that no politician seems to want to deal with bec

I’ve been through two layoffs at tech companies - one of 14,000 and one of 15,000. One touched a lot of teams including my own. The second was mostly smoke and mirrors - they took multiple factories and supply chain employees and sold them

I’ve worked from home for 15 years. It truly varies by individual working style, job, culture, and more. There is no one sized fits all IMHO. The right mix for me is 1-2 day in a small office with others where you bond with co-workers (in

My first job after college was maintaining Newton script mobile application used by my employer. Later we moved the app over to a windows CE device and developed an office management suite in the 4D programming language to compliment it.

Getting tired of this on social media. People making YouTube videos of something relatively simple in hopes of monetizing a channel. The worst is when people take something from a snippet of the Python standard docs and make a 15+ minute v

Went to defcon for many, many years. Used to be on a first name basis with many of those who put the con on. To get banned from defcon is interesting but even 12-15 years ago they were having LGBQT+ conference events. I don’t know what caus

Early in my career I stacked up certs. I’d usually get ones that were relevant to projects I was working on. I’d find sometimes (again earlier in my career) that I needed a combination of structured learning to complement concepts in larg

Interesting - it’s completely anecdotal but several people I know have cancelled due to lack of interesting content. And when people get invested in a show, Netflix cancels the show in year 2 or 3 before costs increase to retain talent. I’m

I’ve been a remote worker for 16 years. While it’s true that remote work does blur the line between personal time and professional time, it’s not what contributes to me working late or on weekends. I work late because I’m in meetings - eit

Anyone who was college educated in the 80s and 90s does this because that’s how we were taught to type and all of our papers had to be double-spaced.
