WFH isn't the problem in that case, failing to gauge impact is. There is always a way to gauge someone's impact. Do you seriously walk around the office checking to make sure people are working hard to gauge impact?

It sounds like the issues you are facing are more to do with the specific people and their attitude towards collaboration than with WFH specifically. You either don't need a response immediately, or if it's important to you or the

I have the same impression of Rust: great for software that is well scoped/defined and needs to be stable and efficient, not so much for quick iterations (which for startups is important) and software that doesn't need top perform

I used to use Linode, then they got hacked and leaked my CC details twice (IIRC) and at that point I switched to DigitalOcean. Guessing many are in a similar boat.

Genuinely curious what is better. MacBook Pros have been the gold standard for a while and now with the ARM chips they are pretty much unbeatable in my eyes.

These kinds of services will always be vulnerable. Especially now that the Twitter API is getting monetised. I had the same goal: helping Twitter users transition to Mastodon. But I decided to go about it a different way: by getting Mastodo

It makes perfect sense. Most programmers learn to program on a C-like, Basic-like or Python-like language. Not ML-like. What's familiar is what's easiest to adopt.

At a FAANG you can get ~£200k per year in London at a Senior level. Deliveroo doesn't pay particularly well (even though it's meant to be a competitor to Doordash which afaik does pay well). The Cabinet Office is a governmental ag

Many good subreddits. r/FIRE and if you're in the UK: r/UKPersonalFinance and r/FIREUK. There is likely similar for US and other countries but I'm less familiar with those.

It's a shame that it's still so packed even after COVID. The main thing that I disliked about FOSDEM when I was there in 2018/2019/2020 was the frustration of getting to a talk you are interested in and finding it's

In general I agree that physical servers are great, but I think it's important to note that for most people a $4/month VPS is more than enough. So actually 45€/month would be overkill in that case.

If you're looking to transition to Mastodon I built a browser extension which might help. The extension injects your Mastodon timeline into Twitter, so you can for example follow some of the bots and accounts that will no longer be on
