I know of two truckers personally who fell asleep at the wheel because of that attitude/culture/expectation, leading to crashes. They were okay but it was scary stuff.

Stress just kills focus and creativity. Then, when you can't focus or imagine, you have to somehow find a way out. I found regular hiking made the biggest difference to me personally. Wish my list of remedies was longer than that but..

I appreciate this, but I'm having trouble determining if the declaration has teeth or not. "The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada plans to take the matter to Federal Court to seek an order to force the company to correc

I do wish there were more advanced courses available. Tons of great intro material, but its harder to go deep

"We don't want to actually destroy the company" It would be bad for investors, but... would it be that bad overall? I guess a replacement could theoretically be worse but they would have to commit to that ideal and not be dis

I would have subscribed to the times by now if they practiced what they preached. Why can't paykng subs be free of the tracking ads?

An some comments above said, layoffs are likely after the games popularity wave recedes. Also, maybe they're hoping for promotions?

Facebook likes their interview nonsense, but stores passwords in plaintext. I think the credibility of the system is in question

Alberta too. The regulation is coming on very gradually since they're confused about how to define and regulate the title/practice. The regulation won't necessarily help anything but to outlaw a lot of smart people from bein

Canada has a professional software engineering organization, at least in some provinces. That said, they talk a lot about ethics but then award first place at a local engineering competition to a team that tracks people's position and

Just to play devils advocate: Hollywood and the games industry pump out a lot of shovelware. If there are millions or billions in profits available for making worthwhile IP of lasting value, they might fund riskier, more worthwhile 'ar

I edited your pitch briefly to shorten it, to change from abstract to concrete, and emphasize slightly different things. This version is still not concrete enough imo, and the benefit not crystal-clear enough, but this was just a quick edit

I found that the process of making a pitch deck really helped me to flesh out my last product attempt, it was very educational for me. Next time I try to make something, I will make such a deck at the ideation phase.

'I also didn't want to go into the grand vision without also discussing what we're working on.' The comment reminded me of something: in startup school, they cautioned us against pursuing a grand vision and encouraged us

I suppose every election they could randomly distribute voter ids that are unique to that election? Ie, pull an I'd from a hat at the polling station then use it and keep it for verification? Edit: undo auto'correct'

So the important part is the visibility of the blockchain, not the distributed control? One could still verify whether tampering had occurred?

Im a blockchain noob, but if the election was driven by blockchain, how would one protect against Chinese mining warehouses trying to gain control of the network? What would a double spend attack look like? Again, just a blockchain noob ask

Super off topic, but how many years experience did you have when you started consulting? How long before you started making equal or more income?

How would authors make money without copyright? Publishers would just print whatever they wanted and authors would be living off patreon and ad revenue like youtubers today do...

Out of curiosity, how big was your organization before the support model you're describing took off? What sort of product was it? I would love to learn more about how this works in practice for companies besides red hat

After my internship I certainly have that fear. It seems unreal that there could be a bunch of other companies out there that have the same calibre of people

Microsoft employees tried to stand up against military contracts but got nowhere. If google does listen at all, eg with dragonfly, that's not nothing.

This doesn't sound like organized retaliation, but like a loyal and angry manager taking initiative and seeking retaliation. At least, as summarized. The company itself probably could have prevented it by having meetings about it ahead
