I actually worked on an open source project, the maintainer was convinced by microsoft to relicense the project for "collaboration" - I left the project for this reason and as far as I can tell msft never did anything for them exc

Fox's main approach - repeating anything that's a lie as dogma until its parroted as core truth by their audience, then saying they are opinion and not news so everyone knows not to take them seriously.

Did you watch the TV on Jan 6? Did you hear Trump repeatedly lie about the election? Are you saying your eyes and ears were lying to you? What are you saying here - that unless you walk around the barn all four sides might not be red? You

There's two options, either they are fools to believe it is a good thing (and they should not be in security) or they are cowards because they think the same fate will befall them.

Also that memory (and your conversations, your interactions) are the actual moat. There's plenty of code out there, but there's not a lot of "how does a developer interact with a code base" outside of commits. The inter

Unfortunately for you you work and live in an environment created by other companies and its likely that if your company succeeds its one acquisition or bad top level management play from invalidating everything you implicitly or even expli

Hell, small in this context can be Snowflake or Databricks, this is the concept of Shadow IT - a slick sales call can convince and move things in a business that an army of engineers will struggle to convince their bosses of. External sales

Are you jealous or mad that they didn't do more for you? Neither is a good look really. What have you done for me lately?

Have you ... done enterprise sales? The idea that a group of people working for a multi-billion dollar business having no idea what they want and no understanding of capabilities of new technologies is ... standard? I have seen it personall

That's definitely two different sets of clashing memes being mixed there. Right wing - cheering on Oil and Tesla. Left wing - cheering on Teslas demise and Solar.

People ask me - "but can we just distribute it because everything in one basket makes me uneasy" Yeah distributing state among 10 nodes, totally easy, fine, good.

Hah, that's table stakes - I have definitely worked at companies with 100 or 1000x the database to engineer ratio. Depending on your database system, it may even have a 1:1 equivalency with Schemas (MySQL.)

That's not even crap data - that's archived data that might be useful someday (though de-dupe is probably a great idea and email sigs are definitely wasteful trash) - most of the crap data is things that would never have been usef

Yes, they are - the "rich" will take a haircut and not care because they fundamentally own the economy itself. The "middle class" or what's left it (see techies and their RSUs) are the ones who actually care about t

3 companies in a row I got recruited by folks from other companies - skipped the degree and about to turn 40, so older is relative - the biggest diff I have had is I am obvious and honest that I am always looking and actively build the netw

I dont think they replace each other, they are complementary - they do overlap though, which is why people think you can trade them off - a test is not creative, a human is not an automaton.

This very much depends on the SQL engine you are talking about - many early sql engines literally compiled stored procedures and didn't allow the dynamism you imply - some still offer such features. Some SQL engines are more sensitive

Every job I have worked, there's the rules, and the actual rules. The rules are what is written down, the actual rules is what is enforced. If the company wants you out or considers you low value/high maintenance, they use the ru

Ah yes, because we don't have the exact numbers your appeal to idiocy must be normalized. Do you know how many people are saved by antibiotics RIGHT NOW? You don't know?! NO ONE KNOWS! Give me a break, we don't need to dissec

The United States especially is having a face to face with tribalism - if you live here and you don't see it you are basically blind. We have parents posting that they are glad their child is dead instead of getting the measles vaccine

Right, you can go to cloudtrail and probably get it, but I have definitely ran into things like service says you do not have access to resource or it does not exist - randomly providing the account some other tangentially related permission

On the other hand there's the president, whose said he's going to go on a mass deportation spree and treating anyone he doesn't like as illegal, but yeah who knows if this is just business as usual!?
