   Let the containers on the streets piss people off to build pressure to align incentives, rather than prolonging the problem with a temporary stacking improvement. This is just a tool in our toolbox that we should not ignore, I'm not sa

   I should have given more context. In cases where incentives are deeply, structurally misaligned, and it will take heroic effort and significant luck to yield an order of magnitude improvement over the status quo, we should consider "le

   Counterpoint, sometimes it's better to let the system burn, or else the root cause will never be addressed. Treating the symptoms can take the pressure off solving the root cause.

   Tradeoffs are tradeoffs. In your k8s example, by running a k8s cluster when you don't need one, a cost you pay is the overhead. In the Cockroach serverless case, costs that come to mind include vendor lock-in when you evolve a pattern

   I'm sorry you had that experience. The silver lining is now you have an opportunity to pay it forward, and take on a mentee! It can be super rewarding. And sometimes you can earn advisor shares. Also you say "even if you want to&q

   We do have coaches in business, we just call them mentors and advisors. Where are you going to find a business coach that is a retired business leader whose credibility based on past success justifies your making material changes to your

    Yikes, I hope you are well paid! (Re: 1 and 3. 2 is table stakes in this day and age. In fact re: 2, would you be willing to share a scenario that calls for sneakernet by courier vs a network storage/transfer?)

    Would you say more about your employer suing you if you cave under pressure and unlock the laptop? That sounds to me like your employer is asking a lot of you! Or, if you are bluffing to security about the suing, why are you putting your pe

    I think you may be getting downvoted because your response doesn’t relate to the example I gave, where the politician made an explicit statement in contradiction of their own health order.

    I suggest just asking such a person about their principles. You’ll probably get a more helpful response if you refrain from characterizing their opinions as “rabid”. If you bring curiosity, you will disarm them, and perhaps learn something

    I honestly can't tell if you're just being pedantic or have a point. At the time that a landlord sends the debt to collections, they are no longer expecting to recoup 100%. As a degenerate example, say the renter offers to pay mon

    Landlord will settle for less than 100%. Much less than 100%, in California.

    You have a good point. In fact, it's surprising that (per the article) only 2.2M renters are 4+ months behind, considering how long the moratorium was in place. Separately, there are state and local programs doing rent forgiveness, e

    Your comment raised some questions for me: * Just curious, how do you enforce against, for example, a Facebook group? Would you have to totally block Facebook? * With word of mouth an activist Slack workspace can take off on personal device

    Yes, the content negotiation you describe is a very longstanding default behavior of Rails. It should probably be made opt-in rather than opt-out in the next major version.
