Yeah, an empathetic person would understand how and why the person is feeling the way they are and acknowledge it. There can be of course legal repercussions to going off on your employer, but even a "yeah, that's now how I would

Similar story with the infamous NYC case of Kitty Genovese in the mid 1960s, whom was sexually assaulted and murdered. The police claimed dozens of people heard and saw her screams, but nobody did anything. The truth was many people calle

Also Israel - and their tech echo system is tier 1. As somebody that has also done work in Korea (with on of their banks), my observation was that almost all decision making was top-down, and people were forced to do a ton of monotonous wor

People freak out about this, but all it boils down to is bringing enough socks, underwear, and shirts for ~5-6 days, 2 pairs of bottoms, and (depending on weather) or a combination of 2 and/either sweaters and an outer shell. Wear the

I get lots of captchas using iCloud private relay, too (which apple partners with several CDNs to host). I think it's probably more likely that if the IP range is not assigned for user consumption (either via consumer/business IS

I see the same thing from "handmade trinkets" in tourist areas when I travel. All drop-shipped crap that you see multiple times, especially if you go to multiple cities. Now I just find a fridge magnet and not care where it's

IPv6 is now pretty standard, especially on cellular networks and in Asia. There are still some ISP holdouts (including Bell Canada’s fiber networks which is apparently finally in beta-testing for consumer IPv6) and many corporate networks

The big difference is that there's now alternative peers to the US (economically and militarily) that didn't exist before. The Soviet Union was economically stagnant by the late 1960s and China and India were in self-imposed isol

Linux was natively written for 32-bit CPUs, so they had no legacy cruft or software to support. IIRC, the first 64 bit port of linux (I think to Alpha?) exposed a lot of code that needed to be rewritten as it assumed 32-bit and/or x86

SNMP is one of those good ideas in theory, bad ideas in practice. Anyways, Cisco hasn’t done great engineering pretty much since the dotcom bust. They’re now essentially a giant PE firm that grows through acquisitions and then milks them dr

Well, it's a classic research paper. They're essentially only supposed to report findings. If you live in a house with central HVAC, a decent, regularly replaced filter will help a lot (make sure to only use full blown HEPPA filt

The tone around "high taxes" are set by the uber-rich. Hilariously, most of them borrow against their shares to fund their lifestyles (where the interest is tax-deductible!) if they're even still resident in CA. That being s

TL;DR Flexibility is all we need. I'm a big believer in empowerment. 90% of employees will usually do the right thing for themselves and the business IF YOU JUST LET THEM. For example, mandating 5 day RTO only to have your sales engi

Offshoring can be a success, but because most companies do it for cost reasons, they focus on cost over everything. Outsourcing to India can be cheaper than setting up shop in the western world for relatively equivalent results, but most

But you tend to lose your most capable employees when you create a bad/undesirable/etc work environment. I think people are attributing malice where the intent is merely...not incompetence, but it's what everybody else is do

Ugh, have some respect. Some of us have PTSD dealing with security issues where the powers that be prevented us dealing with them due to them deprioritizing them during backlog grooming. My last company literally refused to do any securit

My armchair guess is that because traffic hitting the cable is already serialized in some way that larger channels make sense? Of course, those large channels could also be multiplexed in some way and most long-range lines run DWDM/OT

TL;DR is that good storytelling (via plot and character development) is what matters. Pixar was successful because they mastered that via a culture that wanted to make the best of a new technology for movies. It’s the same for Studio Ghibl

As others have pointed out, this is by design. If VPCs have access to AWS resources (such as S3, DynamoDB, etc), an otherwise locked down VPC can still have data leaks to those services, including to other AWS accounts. It's a conveni

Car reliability can vary so much. Some vendors have a deserved reputation for overall quality (Toyota) where issues are usually the exception (accepting the fact that issues can always happen). Others used to have terrible reputations, bu
