Scarcity and anisotropic distribution of resources? Dynamism of your lifetime requirements? Also, some age old sentiment that is encoded in the "keep your friends close and your enemies closer" adage? That would be my 3 guesses fo

Pasting this has recently become a meme. Not sure it applies here, as it's not about removing stuff from the same instance, but about a competitive lean product? Innovators dilemma?

To be fair, computers were frustrating to most people all the time. It's just that they've become frustrating even to the ones that were comfortable before. I'm always on this fence of whether it's become shit or I'

How do you define productive so that you could add a time goal to it? Because I read it as "There are on average about two hours of productive in-context work to be done and the other hours are about building that context for those two

A few points: 1. Computing and engineering in general is such a discipine where one nitpicky detail can make all the difference. One bit flip, one keystone, one badly selected material. However, the conduct of negotiation, could be improved

Thanks for the link. It's interesting start. But it doesn't show me a predator as I expect at the end of sexual assault accusations. It shows more of a sad lonely guy, that's probably sometimes annoying and is not welcome by

Would you be willing to provide a few links to those stories over the years? I never knew enough about his personal behavior to judge that and have no idea how to search for it.

Yes! This shift of business was somehow perceived by the public as the win of open source, but has actually amazingly been an actual loss on the control that you have with the money that you spend.

When you're in poverty, getting out of poverty is about risking, but not in a lottery kind of way you're talking about. It's about risking to get away with not spending the money on some immediate emergency and holding it for

That 4% is very deceptive. It gives the impression, that there is some room to stretch it. But is there? I mean, you're talking 4% of a situation where 100% is total heat death of all the participants in the economy. Where any amount g
