To be fair, there are going to be plenty of critical leaks coming out of Twitter with a 50% cutting of staff. That's so many whistleblowers, my backyard is completely leaf free now. Frankly, if Musk cuts $1B from the run rate and there

"SB 1162 doesn’t make clear how the law applies to companies that employ workers remotely" There is always going to be a push/pull with regulations. Considering the above statement, thinking about regulatory burdens, companie

It's so weird and creepy .. thanks for posting all the details of the investigation. I hope the person is nailed, but in the end this is the dark part of the internet. There's no end to fraud, identity theft and scams.

Usually ID checks happen at on-boarding, not interviewing, but still you would think it would be a perfect place to verify and then dismiss the person the same day. Actually I wouldn't even dismiss them... I'd list them as "n

Have some empathy, man. If you owned a company and hired someone, but the person who showed up isn't the same person, the word "fraud" is wholly appropriate and I feel bad for Op. When you are trying to hire the very best, an

"The maximum allowed document size is 100KB" I suppose this is due to the FDB limitations, so this obviously isn't a blobstore nor will it ever be (?). For example, we need to store video and image files which are easily 100K

Honestly I didn't think it was that bad. It certainly wasn't its own creation, like the difference between the UK Office and US Office. Not sure either show would have worked without Moss though.

The whole model of every type of digital media just being a license to view for some time, never perpetual, is really concerning to me. I've had movies I've "purchased" from Amazon which are no longer visible, for exampl

In your list of things to test, let me save you some time/effort: "Hyper-V" -- Don't. Just... don't. Don't waste your time. Source: ran Hyper-V in production for 3 years. Still have nightmares.

When do you plan on implementing Office365 / Azure SSO? I would ditch Okta tomorrow and throw money at you. One of the reasons I stay with Okta is their ability to automatically provision accounts with SaaS providers. It's not 1

The problem is, as I think Op was alluding to, not all problems are shared, so how to build the supportive relationships that will help them. I think for you, what you need to get out of a 1:1 might be different from other people, and that&

Violent agreement on the 1:1 point. The hard part is, making it natural as it would be in a face-to-face setting, and I think for remote the frequency has to be much higher than if you saw someone f2f. The important thing to think about is

This reminds me of a line from the TV show "Fringe" Pilot episode, which freaks me out to this day: "How long has he been dead?" "About five hours." "...Question him."
