Contributing code to OSS should not fall under "IP" unless the code was written on company time. IP refers to concrete things like patents and in almost every case cannot apply to stuff created outside of and unrelated to work.

This sounds like you want an AI to turn bullet points into text so that the PM's AI can turn it back into bullet points and vice-versa. Don't you think that it might be more efficient to just communicate with the bullet points?

I get the spirit of what you're trying to say (I think) but the truth is that wireless spectrum is an extremely scarce resource. It is bad policy to let inefficient protocols use it without good reason - 2G has the status of "low

The stock has certainly responded, although only time will tell if it'll return to a more sensible valuation. My guess is that this robotaxi launch will make or break the company. If the product looks like any other first-gen driverle

If you were already pricing in mils to be competitive, your customers will not accept an increase of 5c "because the country got rid of the penny." It's basically impossible that your customer was paying you in cash at that p

This is ridiculous. Someone with an actual, literal boot on their neck will hear your spiel about exploitation and laugh as much as they can manage. The US is a state, and like all states it's a sociopath. The reason it's better

I disagree with your insinuation that OSS projects have to be happy about big tech deciding to offer their product as a managed service. I think that's ridiculous; OSS isn't an ideology, it's a type of license. I do agree th

Yeah, but until American troops are actually in Greenland, Panama, etc., comparing this country to Russia is nuts. Trump, even in his most incandescently orange rage, STILL doesn't make as many nuclear threats as Putin does. He certai

How you see it depends on how highly you think of non-STEM work, I guess - but I will say anecdotally that the folks who were good at math/science when I was in school also seemed to be solidly above average at English.

It was MORE blatant and transparent, which IMO is the bare minimum for government-sanctioned racism. If we are going to do AA, we owe it to EVERYONE to make it clear exactly how and when we will do it. Sneaking it in disingenuously will r
