> some boards had kernels never updated As much as I love tinkering, this is why I stick with RPi boards and not others. RPis do everything I need, and have amazing support in software.

What you did is great. If you're making coming to that place a requirement regardless of outcomes, then you're failing your employees AND yourself, in this case.

Ditto. I lucked into being a courier. We had a second phone line at my house and while we cancelled it, Bell Atlantic left it active for three YEARS, but no active billing attached to it, so I could call anywhere in the world for free. I us

For-profits have to spend money to keep bringing it in, too. Every company has an Accounts Receivable person, even if it's a one-person business you spend a lot of time bringing in business and bringing in payments. Everyone's qui

Ys, you can sue anyone at any time for any thing, but you have to actually show cause, show harm, show standing, show breach of contract, etc. So you sue me. I said I fulfilled all of my obligations according to the contract and since the f

It's about managing liability at that point, it's not a technical concern but a legal/regulatory one. If you have a contract with Okta and they screw it up, you have better legal recourse than just firing the guy internally.

Every time I'm in a new store (and occasionally I'll repeat it) I'll tell managers that "as a customer, I'm complaining about those doors, and I'm not going to waste time opening all the doors to find what I wa

There's a lot more than that they need to address. Fake job listings with rock bottom salaries so they can claim they can't find US workers, paying H1B people far below market value, job-shopping in personal networks when someone

I couldn't make it through book 2. Book 1 set up some interesting ideas without exploring it too much, and book 2 completely moved on without exploring things, and it was slow, boring, and annoying. I read the wikipedia summary and rea

Blockchain tech isn't 14 years old, it's 30 years old, or even 40 if you want to go back to the '82 paper. Still no world-changing tech has come from it, aside from monopoly money.
