I'll reply to you instead of the parent. The parent has always worked remotely and has chosen that. Everyone the past two years worked remotely and a majority NOT choose it and did not prepare either. Sure, some people turn out to pref

I think the crypto is quite interesting. I'm fascinated to see the sites that have opted in to receive "tips" from me in the form of their BAT token. Micropayments in lieu of ads has been a dream of many for a long time. Brav

On a farm you're alone most of the time. No meetings. Not really any middle management. I grew up on a farm. It's damn hard work and I would never go back to that. But there is appeal in not having to be constantly coordinated, po

It's Zoom. I'm convinced. Sure there are some people that have always been remote, but I think two years of isolation has caused a cultural infection that is difficult to isolate but absolutely present. Humans need to be around ot

Private schools' enrollment got filled up in many places. It did around me. Meanwhile so many parents have moved away or gone to private schools, we are worried our local elementary school will close due to the enrollment decline. My w

Yes, I want HD Radio. In Los Angeles, KROQ's secondary HD channel plays KROQ as it existed in the 1980's, including some old jingles and such. I think it's such a cool idea.

Agreed, and I also think measuring "rework" helps. For a car company, rework could be recalls or warranty claims. For a software company it can be outages or incidents, especially those with major customer impact.

Interesting idea. But the only problem with it is the assumption Tesla can succeed. I am not sure about that. The other, darker, possibility is that Tesla does so poorly in this moonshot that they poison the well for everyone else, some of

No. The time for an abundance of caution was 2020. You can get vaxxed if you want and N95's are effective if you want to protect yourself. Society can't keep dragging this giant "safety" rock behind it forever.

If you have a large environment to build in a certain region, the cloud lead time is months also. We have to give our cloud provider months notice before building in a region. But we have a pretty serious and profitable workload. Your state
