I have been interested in this space, but have failed to understand how these versioning solutions for data work in the context of environments. There are aspects of time travel that line up better e.g. with data modelling approaches (such

Would you say that the opposite assertion, I.e. that consciousness is computation is not grounded on belief and bias? I believe consciousness is computation of some kind. I think some of the challenges with consciousness is the link with th

I was tongue in cheek. I was just issued a notice to vacate with no grounds a week ago, so believe me I am with you. And no, apparently tenant protection is not decent at all. European countries are much better in tenant protection.

As an immigrant to Australia, the dream is now being able to rent it. Cannot say that I feel that there is tall poppy at work, things can be quite creative and competitive. Schools do give that feeling of subdued expectations. I’d say educa

I would argue that goods prices also don’t display the same elasticity going down as they do going up. Whether they are less sticky I don’t know but will definitely look into relevant literature.

I’d just have it. Every extra round is also additional investment on their end. Good sign, if they don’t offer past that many, it will be frustrating, but most probably better for you.

Feeling stuck in a rut is quite common and most people would at some point have felt that and mostly rightfully so. You’re young enough, potentially with little responsibility in the way of family obligations etc. given that you don’t menti

So they don’t lie about it. From their perspective they reinterpret sleep deprivation as metaphysical labour to culminate in ecstatic mystical experience. Especially in puritanical, austere contexts the power to shape an experienced story,

I think we are more aligned than what our exchange may superficially imply. But to clarify, from a value generation perspective, I don’t see tech debt as something whose payoff would generate any value other than in terms of technical flexi

Once the engineering team started thinking about business cases, they started wasting time they could be dedicating to engineering. I know where you come from, on a similar journey, but when things don’t work, adding things to do is the wor

But products themselves are being dematerialised also. I.e. looking at my kids who constantly watch “gamers” and dream of getting the next battlepass. And games themselves are about data and IP etc.

I don't believe conspiracy necessarily has to be for a goal that is against majority support. I.e. someone may conspire against a minority. Conspiracy is by virtue of not disclosing actions or their goals. I.e. the subjects of the stud

Speaking as someone who is no longer involved at the coal face of things like that, my role in an equivalent incident resolution would be to attend some of the 3-hourly calls (this frequency sounds extreme past the first 3-4days btw), and t

I have heard these horror stories so many times but never witnessed them in reality. From my point of view, excel is a great way to ensure knowledge is not hidden, as you have a file format that embeds calculations, data and outputs. It c

Lower down the tree people want to get promotions and that transition won’t happen abruptly but gradually. I agree with the overall sentiment, though. My experience is 80% of time in office on zoom or hybrid zoom/in person meetings, wh

They could be telling the “not about you” to everyone, though, and that would also act as some kind of free carrot for them, I.e. you feel somehow appreciated in a very abstract way with no cost to the company. I haven’t seen any organisati

Just on point 1, maybe in the context of said FAANG data quality was by choice if at all. In other industries, e.g. Finance, it can be regulated and audited, so operational teams care in terms of not being able to continue operations. That

I think there is an inversion here, though. The question implicit in this context is not whether the map is the territory, but whether the territory is the map. Now one can see these as homophonic statements, but is this the case? When is i
