leaning over is just as much a context switch. “just being asked” something is often a rude interruption of concentration. over chat i have the opportunity to take a minute to wrap up what i’m doing. I also walk away with a written record

This doesn’t seem like it’s a matter of being WFH as much as not using chat tools effectively. It’s very possible to just shoot the juniors a DM asking how they’re doing. or having an active team channel where people can ask for help or of

Conversely, I think others are taking it too loosely. There’s going to be a continual stream of new variants, and vaccines will always lag behind them. Reopening everything will always accelerate this. Gathering is always going to be a mor

Try offering to help. No, it's not your responsibility. But if it's something you want done, and the other person is struggling with it (they are, you're just not seeing that part), then help can go a long way. Even just c

I appreciate the sentiment here. If I may offer a different perspective: the public has paid a _lot_ of money for this thing, and getting a good stream of the launch set up (seems like it should be) a drop in the bucket. I don't thi

I don't have numbers handy, but the last time I looked the overlap of people with ASD that also have ADHD is...pretty substantial (The inverse is not -- it's still a common comorbidity, but not nearly skewed as much) So if you hav

That's a great insight. I wonder if it'd be practical to defer them until after the causal operation was complete say translating all positions, then calling all of the triggers for the positions component. that'd keep every

Something I've had trouble wrapping my head around with ECS -- how does it fundamentally differ from an in memory relational database? They describe a "sparse set" designed for sequential identifiers -- how does that compare

You don't. You can either proceed to converse taking that they are on faith (and a consistent comment history over time), or not. You're not going to get satisfying confirmation one way or another. A conversation centered around

What real facts did the author present? It's a recounting of their impression of the code base, experience on boarding, etc. Perhaps I'm being dense - could you highlight the plain and simple truth part?
