It’s not the mainstream media that is primarily manipulating people in the US and has not been since the eighties. Extremely biased “conservative” (in reality anything but) propaganda has been dominant for a third of the population since Go

There’s no organ harvesting of a religious subgroup in America.

It’s not baffling. It’s time to get off of backblaze.

Tylenol is much less dangerous than, say, Advil. It’s only issue is one of overdose which is common to all drugs.

I am deeply aware of software people being crap at hardware having worked in embedded for much of my career.

by foobiekr 6mo ago
Hardware people, in my very direct experience, are terrible at software. But we can hope.

I think his bigger point is that it seems to always go this way. About two weeks ago there was a panic about helium and chipmaking and the crisis that the strait would cause. One that didn't even bother to look into where helium is so

I work in big tech and several of my older colleagues are ALL IN on peptides. Fountain of youth stuff. Frankly as I am aging myself and noticing a lot of changes to recovery time and overall physically feeling good, I can totally understand

>We’ve made targeted investments where we can, for example, adding support for iCloud Drive by working within Apple’s model Is icloud drive backed up or not? Please be clear. Which versions support this? https://www.backblaze.

That's the CTO. And yes, it has been evident for years that backblaze doesn't actually know how to write software, they are unfamiliar with many basic things.

It's a good deal until they silently stop backing up some of your files.
74.
by foobiekr 6mo ago
This is idiotic. All they have to do is schedule them and then introduce enough hysteresis to not constantly churn on their end. Even if they backed up at most once a day this would be better than this idiocy.

This is very cool but completely wrong for high earners.

It's the tech version of ag gag laws and liability-protection laws for pesticides.

I am convinced the Uncle Fester books are some kind of performance art. "Practical LSD Manufacture" basically starts with "go find some ergot in fields" and step two is "plant and grow a plot of wheat."

Many of these forums exist now. Let's not enumerate them as they are one of the treasures of the internet.

This isn't about politics, it's about not caring what damage they do as long as it lines their pockets.

It is completely obvious that a lot of tech workers are basically evil. They get paid to work on evil things that hurt society and want to not feel like terrible people. See the thread on Musk and the cone head on self reflection.

Getting excited about Elon claims is foolish. His fab will go nowhere similar to his endless battery claims. It’s just another Musk attempt to grab federal subsidies.

He is absolutely a fraud. He has been lying about many things for more than a decade to boost his stock. He has more in common with Trevor Milton than anyone else.

These people are insanely powerful forces in the modern world. Of course we should talk about them (and usually how Wrong, shortsighted, and self-serving they are).

You realized they were always shitheels. Musk was a complete visible fraud long before 2016.
88.
by foobiekr 7mo ago
The reason he and Musk are anti-introspection is that when they do it, it hurts. Because they are terrible people. Better to just not think about it.

I work for a 300+B company that spends nearly $1b a year on AWS. Microsoft engaged in a relentless romance campaign with our loser EVP and one of his reports for months giving him the cool LinkedIn post opportunities that weak executives cr

It's a reinvention of SVG with all the same problems. JSON is not any better in terms of data efficiency or fast updating. It's like these people have never done graphics programming.
