Technology is a large factor but not the core driver. It's individual human motivation that drives the efficiency of the system. When you centralize the function of human motivation into a governing body like socialism aims to do, the

Where do you think a Tesla goes to get new tie rods or a body panel replacement? They lean on the existing service location network. My friend needed body work on his Model 3 after someone hit him. They sent him to a traditional dealership

How else would a car manufacturer put staff and inventory in every town across the country? They would either build dealerships themselves or franchise it out. Their cost structures don't cover this brick and mortar presence currently

It depends on whether it's more moral to keep a department of 5000 people employed (all paying income taxes) while avoiding import taxes or scrap the whole department because taxes make the department unprofitable. A business will neve

It only depends heavily on the up vote if you depend on the up vote. Sometimes it's nice just to formulate thoughts in writing. If others see it, great. If not, no big deal.

Of course. I feel more comfortable speaking my mind under a more anonymous account. Even then I'm pretty measured, I just don't want to deal with potential headaches in my professional career. I don't owe the world my true se

You're not mad at the person who wrote the tax code? Taxes are pretty arbitrary. Unless you intend to enforce the spirit rather than the letter of the law you're always going to be playing cat and mouse games. People who generate

Of course there's mentoring 2-3 times per week. The rest of the time they're just staring at their screens trying to figure out wtf is going on. People don't feel confident jumping in to a chat stream. In real life you see a

Yes, but it's a huge strain on senior workforce. A summer intern becomes a curse where no work gets done because you're trying to actively include digitally what's being done for free via office osmosis.

I'm seeing this in personal experience. Interns and juniors are just totally lost between Zoom meetings. They don't have the confidence to jump into busy work chats.

Yes. I learned that about myself a long time ago. Sometimes it takes me a week to figure out "how to change the color of a button" but after that I can ramp up pretty fast. As I get older it just becomes a question of targeted tim

I think it would be nice if the toast popped up and hid in a tray and you could expand it and see a toast history with timestamps.

But fraudsters can steal your cash too. The difference is that you don't call the bank when someone takes your cash, you call the cops.

Is nagios still a thing? I used it 10 years ago and loved it. I feel like people would look at me funny if I suggested it now. Datadog is all the rage.

It is what you make it. If you don't utilize the face time you have with people then you're leaving opportunity on the table. The world won't end or anything if you don't network, but you'll have a leg up on everyon

Well, you will get control over employees that show up. The rest are passed over until they leave. If I had a choice to manage a team hybrid in person or manage fully remote, I would always pick in person. I think it will naturally move bac
