I have yet to see a CEO actually take responsibility for anything. Its always some hand-wavey talk about strategy and unexpected decline in sales. Never once was it "I messed up." I have, on the other hand, seen boards pile all th

Thanks. That actually makes it make more sense, chevron doctrine applied to courts and what they can/can't do. Edit: made applies past tense

Didn't the supreme court recently overturn the Chevron Doctrine? Doesn't that mean agencies like this are not free to set their own rules when a law is ambiguous? And isnt the cap on number of households reached actually codified

First, I would like to preface that this is alpha and should not replace anything in prod at the moment. What I like about how SIEMatic is built: * Django (personal familiarity) * Agent, Indexer, crawlers and web all share a codebase with s

I struggle with this. A kind of premature optimization. I get around it by taking really messy handwritten notes in a notebook (I guess this is called a dirt notebook, but I just call it my dirt notebook). I get around this by making a deli

Fair enough, I suppose. While Tesla has (in some years) avoided traditional marketing, the ceo is known for spending ridiculous amounts of money on publicity stunts like having a submarine shipped to a cave and buying Twitter to boost publi

I would agree with you if we were just talking about the abstract idea of marketing. But like everything else, the devil is in the details. The marketing industry in the US is built not only to get the word out about your product, but also

> "Anthropomorphic" means "human shaped". In a literal, ancient Greek sense for sure, but in modern English Anthropomorphic would describe the act of attributing human characteristics to non-human entities. Seems pret

I like the approach outlined in the article. These days having a roadmap for yourself while cruising at highway speeds helps make sense of the chaos. One big pain point that has existed forever and has never really been addresses adequately

I think some AI companies are just now starting to feel the pressure to profit. Soon, I predict we will see a pretty significant jump in price that will make a 10% productivity gain seem tiny compared to the associated bills. For now, these

I would push back on that because I have some experience writing marketing copy. It's just not my primary competency. If the proverbial marketer that you were referring to had some experience with coding, I dont see why they wouldnt be

It's my opinion that AI can help a lot when it is supporting you when expanding beyond your core competency. For instance, as a SWE, I get just a little help with boilerplate from the AI. I could usually have done it better, but someti

I've always heard "slow is steady and steady is fast." Same thing, but from the trades instead of the military.

The insurance company is not a charity. You will (or already have) pay the full price.

YouTube offers an ad-free subscription called YouTube premium. It's reasonably priced and includes access to YouTube Music. I like the hybrid approach of being able to be ad-supported or paid with no ads. I would like to see more of it

Granted, all of that is true, but GP specifically differentiated between ASCII and ASCII Extended, then GP went on to say that after choosing the ASCII option and pasting the text in a text editor on Mac it was reported as UTF-8, which I wa

I love python f-strings. I dont use the format specifiers that this article points out. Also, even though use in log messages is discouraged, I go ahead and use them. It will let me know if there is some code path where the proper variable

Thank you for the question. Those platforms seem to be web analytics platforms, purpose built to track and analyze data from visitors to your web site. Delve, on the other hand, concentrates on ingesting large quantities of structured, semi
