Didn't read article fully, but - since it's protocall buffer definitions, what if these fields are there for backward compatibility?

As I said elsewhere, morality is a social construct. Survival is a biological instinct.

Not if the customer is killing a potential future adversary to my family or even distant relatives. Morality is a social construct. The selfish gene is a biological construct.

This is very logical, albeit sounding rude. I think the parent commenter should not be downvoted for this. If you cant come to terms with what your employer is doing, it's in the right of the either party to terminate the contract. Mor

Sir, in most companies if you suggest something technical without having equivalent political power, at best, no one will listen to you. At worst you will create political enemies. Probably there was an SDE-2 or SDE-3 who called bullshit on

My first question is - are these spams fishing for direct victims, or some dirty SEO trick?

The phone is not that bad for reading. Granted, reading PDFs is harder. But reading webpages is mostly fine. When I started using phones, I didn't have the luxury of high speed internet and multimedia-focused apps. I should probably be

I'm actually surprised that grafana is just 350 MB, I deal with more trivial images which pack 700-800 MBs.

This assumes the person is paid by the hour and all this work lost him some day-job's work. Otherwise, that time is his free time and he can do what he likes.

What does " being such to a degree that is extreme, excessive, or markedly abnormal (with a connotation of it happening on purpose) " mean in this context?

This self aggrandization by humanities people never gets old. Git is a DAG management system. It's fine if you don't understand what that means. The world runs on science and commerce, get down your humanities high horse.

This doesn't look like GPT. I have never seen GPT say "probably ghcr, but don't hold me to that".

I am sure college grads (from decent Indian colleg) can solve this one. The problem is they have done leetcode style of puzzles all their college life. - mostly control flow, numbers and DP / greedy / graph patterns. Which is such

It's delusional to think humanities / ethics courses fix these problems. It's managers who usually make these decisions, not engineers. Doesn't the ruling elite of most countries study humanities courses? Does that preve

> Still, it is likely that the viking ethos does draw from the culture they inherited from the Yamnaya This is intuitive to me as well. But my question is, are there evidences in support, eg their language, mythology or "pots"

I am curious. Is there a reason to think Vikings are closer to yamnaya __culturally__ than, say, other Germanic people? (Other than slightly higher steppe DNA).

> Once a culture builds up, the managers at consultancy will feel ashamed to cut loose on ethics even under pressure. As if the engineering grads make these decisions and not managerial types with MBA degrees and "connections".

I don't really think technical writers are held in same contempt as project managers. They don't make life hell for engineers without knowing shit. At least they understand the tech more than project manager who just tries to move

I don't know if the author is reading this. But thanks for this article. One day I want to grow up, become a big shot engineer, and Name-and-shame all clueless middle managers who have tortured me.
