I don’t know. Google drive at work is ok I guess. I just canceled Dropbox this year after a decade. I’d think hard about if you really need this type of program for your workflow and maybe pay for an online backup service instead if you don

It really is a terrible book and basically says nothing useful at all. If you are into these kinds of books “The Wealthy Barber” is a bit annoying and I think there are some mildly sexist anecdotes but it’s not terrible advice besides that.

It’s not even about side gigs some places where this is bad. In some states it’s about preventing employees (even lower level folks) from going to a competitor.

Most of the employment agreements I’ve signed with largish tech companies have the non-compete baked in there with language that it does not apply where not enforceable or a specific carve out for California. I know Amazon makes people sign

I hope the tech workers leaving California take into account how hostile most states are in terms of non competes for employees. Not having them enforceable here is a big part of the magic that let the tech industry thrive in the Bay Area.

I think perhaps Marco’s thread on this more clearly articulates what I was trying to get at. Maybe y’all disagree but it does not really matter... it only matters how the power is wielded and who benefits and how. https://twitter

The cool thing is that while Coinbase gets to use its inherent power/leverage over workers to get a certain outcome (capital is a form of power btw) workers can use their inherent power (withholding labor, negotiating as a unit, buildi

They spent a lot of time on this but have not gotten the basics right yet. For instance, there is no “start from beginning” button which is a huge oversight since kids watch stuff 3000 times. You either have to let the credits roll entirely

Everyone in the thread is overly paranoid. IANAL but have delt with this stuff enough to know that in general you’re fine if California law applies and it’s an MIT license - don’t violate the MIT license though. None of the non compete clau

Thanks! This just made me realize the other requirement is that they can play Minecraft and that it does indeed run on Linux.

I bought two for the kids and while they are fine and I’m happy with the value I still despise windows home edition (had to block one from my router during set up so I did not have to make a windows account for instance). I really really wi

Haha, this is the correct answer. I’d also consider looking into some of the build pack based methods of creating OCI images like https://buildpacks.io as they can save you a good amount of time on an ongoing basis.

Number one is fast available COVID-19 tests so I can get these kids out of my house during the day :) But since that’s taking time... Build good primary school education software and couple it with teacher training. Right now it’s a mishmas

S&P 500 is a Capitalization-Weighted Index meaning the larger companies make up much more of a percentage of the index. And in this environment companies that are large with lots of cash are in a super good position and people are fleei

Btw, the 1200 bucks they are sending folks once is basically a bit over federal minimum wage for a month of full time work.

The solution to this is super simple. Offer 600+n where n increases until they agree to come back. Don’t have a viable business at those labor costs? Bummer.

Probably because they use so many contractors for moderation but won’t let them work remotely so they have a staffing issue now.

Same. I could have swore they canceled this. Maybe they had a chance of hear or I’m confusing it..

Be ok with being less productive. It’s week three being locked inside with 4 and 7 yo for us. More self sufficient than a newborn to be sure... but two that age are a lot as the days wear on. We have taken to making a weekly schedule with a

DNSimple has been solid. Easy to understand UI and reasonably priced private registration and other nice features like automatic dns setting templates for various services like gmail etc..

I guess you’re right that these are the top level threads before 2012. What I’m remembering (and found via google search) is this kind of discussion around message pack comes up in most other threads about serialization formats or adjacent

Yeah, this same conversation about Message Pack happens once every two years here but that’s ok I guess...

Yeah, I did the “JavaScript arrays” one. Don’t let the topic name fool you... They don’t show you everything up front. All those topics get pretty advanced.

https://www.executeprogram.com uses it and it’s really great. Eventually it’s 19 bucks a month but probably worth it if it helps get you past those annoying coder pad screens everyone seems to love these days.

Collaborative. You’re reviewing the backlog together. In user interviews together, talking through priorities and product vision. Working to understand and maintain team heath and productivity over the long term.

There used to be issues with homebrew but I think many of them have been solved and it’s kinda been the de facto standard for the last several years. Brewfiles are pretty nice too. I can’t tell you about the cons compared to Mac ports becau
