So, it depends. You don't want to protect the team from a foreign entity, having to understand the political structures around them or the actual value they bring to the organization. You do want to protect them from pressures of worki

They get different content. Nowhere on that streaming content is someone explaining the intricacies of speedrunning The Legend Of Zelda (as a simple example.) It turns out there may only be a couple thousand people in the world really tha

I will say, as much as I agree with you, even software organizations have problems that are well suited toward these low code platforms. After working through some of the quirks of retool, we have developers just adding things in the fracti

I think the SOA/microservices distinction has to do with the patterns of architecture more than anything else. (For example, the enterprise service bus is... well, ignore that if you squint it looks a bit like the service mesh and Kafk

The weird thing is that some people really love those playlists. I moved to apple music and my partner gets annoyed because he misses exactly that. He likes that they change regularly - it's a feature rather than a bug. I listen to a

I only can judge from the article - I don't know the dynamics of the team. Some people and teams thrive on meeting a challenge and it would be exhilarating. Others would see this as draining. For the right team, I would do this. That i

I am interested in both, but we're still a bit away from cultured meat. We are closer than I expected we would be in 2021, though. See this press release from this week: https://www.perishablenews.com/meatpoultry/f

I disagree with some of the premises. First, I think that the right choice is to pick the right protein for the job, and not choose wheat and soy because of price. Mung beans, for example, are expensive because people aren't growing th

I get the frustration, but fundamentally, screen sharing and screenshots are so integral to my daily use that I couldn't even consider wayland. For nearly any remote worker at this point, at least the ones I work with, this is fundamen

Companies aren't, but this is a relatively small community, especially in some niche languages. That conversation with a coworker might lead to a job years down the line. As a manager, I may not always be a manager. The next job, I may

The problem from my perspective is that video is a poor way to learn or diagnose technique. They can listen to the sound (albeit depending on their setup, inaccurately), but how do you tell if the student has tension in their shoulder (as a

Does this transfer to online lessons? As of right now, there's a plague that we're trying not to transfer right now. (As far as I've heard, online lessons are not that great, relatively speaking.)

I upvoted you even though I disagree, for a few reasons. First, a lesson where I get Covid is a really expensive lesson. A lesson where I give Covid to a teacher is a really expensive lesson for them, and I don't want to be responsib

From what I've heard from one of the trials, they used a meningitis vaccine that actually does hurt. (Its side effects are known but minor.) That was hearsay, though, and I don't have access to the internal protocol.

That’s a jaded view. The truth is that most enterprise customers are not making a decision based on a front page blurb and are going to Vercel because they have a problem they already need solved. The problem here is “I want to avoid increa

Outing is a controversial but old practice from the 80s in the queer community, and involves outing public figures who were involved in making the lives of the LGBT community worse. The classic text I know was Outing, Part 1 from Michelange

How many students do you have and what's your teaching load? I think that's another primary consideration. Teaching a 3/3 (or god forbid, a 4/4) with 30 students in each makes for a rough grading experience.
