Deep thinking work will not go away. From trades to tech. It'll change work for sure, but it's not going to obliterate workers jobs. I'm no luddite, but I've seen enough rocky digital transformations to know that human b

I remember seeing this when I was younger around the time it came out and being blown away. It didn't hold up so well on a rewatch a few years back.

There'd be metadata of you moving with it. So you'd have touch points in other places through other systems. IF you have a phone, and you're tracked by it, then even if the identity of the sim points elsewhere there's th

This argument doesn't make sense. That's like saying you cant review a security camera overlooking a carpark to see who was illegally using your carpark.

I get work from IT security. I don't have IT security create less work for me. And the benefit they create in my work is .... lots of sonarcube scans that create work items for me, that may more maynot be real. And we don't know w

You speak with a client. They say what they want. You build it they test it, and state objections and or request more features. You discuss and then build the agreed thing. And then you do this loop untill you ship

The expectation of speed at the airport, because planes move fast, creates urgency for everyone. When you're on a ship or a train there's a time component to your expectations of travel. A delay in an airport feels worse than a de

I have similar experience. I am always amazed that there's these rockstar personalities that start projects, hit trouble, and then pivot to a new project without every finishing anything. I kind of find it fascinating that these people

You know the guy that shot Reagan, John Warnock Hinckley Jr. He just got released from a secure psych facility. He shot the president and then got treated for being crazy. As a response, the conservatives in the 80's defunded public p

That's called hydrolic lock. It kills experienced people all the time. Weir style dams are so subtle and dangerous.

The simple stuff has always been known. To run well you must wear a top hat. However, that climbing picture reminds me of my childhood school. I'm just old enough that all my school equipment used to be telephone poles constructed int

Take the most complex thing that person does, and take it away from them. Task two or three capable but junior people that task and accept they might stuff it up. Try to create a low pressure environment. However, they will learn a lot and

Hitman 1 in this series was a bit of flop at the time because of the episodic model. I think they had the right idea, but not enough meaty content. Now with 21 maps and stacks of missions and puzzles doing regular map drops for $10 every fe

Silver lining, hopefully some rich people of influence are disappointed enough to start taking CC seriously.

ATM's are the OG distributed system. If you ever get a online banking notice about your bank doing maintenance over the weekend usually they ATM's will go into standby mode. When this happens it is really interesting, and a fun so

IMO, It's less about time and more about will or political power from middle management to implement a change. Inertia is a terribly oppressive force.

I'm glad you got a solution implemented out of it. Nice to see reason win the day.

I would think that the Elected Representative not doing that job and absconding to study would be the more significant detail.

In a way your solution sounds like a JIRA tickets. Not criticising but a lot of upper middle management want guard rails.

I'm under 60 and have had AZ, both shots, then Moderna, then Pfizer. Pfizer was the worst for side effects. Like a bad cold for 12 hours. Other than that, no COVID.

Stop drinking alcohol. I used non alcoholic beers as a way to phase out alcohol from my life (mostly for diet and exercise reasons). Now i generally don't drink either. Also, park in terrible locations, furthest parks in a lot, a block
