Customers are the entities subject to the regulations and therefore making the demands. Notably, a lot of it results from a new shift in perspective aka they are developing internal security policies consistent with those regulations. None

MSFT should be leading the way. In what universe do they need to be collecting data from kids, especially that which cannot be kept locally. Telemetry data (which I suggest is reasonable that they collect) can be stored in local 'log&#

Because it's a lot of money and I suggest he's not able to conjure up billions - after taxes especially - quite so easily. Though as you suggest it is a problem not just an opportunity and his hand might be forced. Financing opera

"Engineering is complicated -> I will buy shares" I don't think this logic works. The company is not made or broken whether or not the software is a bit more complicated than it has to be. Making it a bit simpler will not

Self awareness in criticism on both sides of the equation is really hard. Some people derive ego out of criticizing, some are angry, spiteful, ideological, personal - and frankly, I think all criticism have a least small hints of all of the

Yup. At the risk of being glib I would say this is 90% of the issue. Or more like 'the big blocking issue' at the moment. Voice can do way more than we know, but we have no idea what it does or how to use it. Standardizing the int

This is all worth reading, fine and good, but one thing people have difficulty with is risk, what that means at scale, and other strategic considerations. If 8/10 new companies fail, it should be expected that most new product initiati

It's shocking how many people don't have the ability to organize their thoughts. I'm ashamed that I was completely guilty of this myself. At some degree of professional development in software, you start to verbalize things,

1) We probably shouldn't take anything that can be used to manipulate at face value. 2) As far as I understand it, EA actually is a very, very simple concept that ultimately states that 'doing good in some ways is better than othe

You wouldn't 'make one up' there would be an automatic variation of Semantic Versioning, or something actually useful. Your 'warm and fuzzy' comes at the cost of confusion (even to yourself), not having any clue wha

Wouldn't it have been better if we could use something other than SHA1 as the actual name of something? Where in the worst dystopian parts of software do we do this? The SHA1 is kind of a security feature if anything, a side-show thing

Yea I think probably most people can tell the difference between $6, $20 and $50 and then struggle beyond that (and beyond that it is very subjective). But for 'crap' 'ok' and 'good' and 'good+' categ

'Restraint' is just something that separates Musk from regular CEO's. Most CEO's absolutely stand out otherwise. Here is John Chambers on Charlie Rose [1] Jean Liu [2] Just from those conversations you can see how way ou

While it's fair to point out so many of the similarities between the people at the top and the bottom ... there are also differences. Notably, Musk is an outlier in many ways. The vast, vast majority of CEO's are highly conscienti

It's ideal when you don't have a specific tool for something aka IntelliJ is generally better for java, but for looking at 'whatever' especially new/mixed repos where you don't want to set up an env. then VSCod

Geothermal is not the same as drilling holes down into the earths crust. Geothermal is tapping into natural release of heat from the earth.

You may want to reconsider, or rather, consider the value of your own time. If you value your time just even a little bit, consider how many of those tools are multipliers. Obviously not 'JIRA' for a single dev, but in many cases

Though wary of being too much of a negative naysayer ... still, yes, let it burn. So many of these scams have made their way into legitimate systems, like a disease. Let crypto find is way to utilitarian need via true, ephemeral, idiosyncra

As a side note I suggest that the issue is one of operational fidelity. They do it in a reasonable time frame for a fraction of the cost, aka, a bit of '1st era' commercialization of Space - still relatively government related, bu

It would rather seem to me that despite the challenges, that it should be easier to dig a hole than to do 'Nuclear Fusion' in which case we ought to consider maybe doing more substantial research? Imagine if we solved this problem

Actually in practical use, we'd be obliged to use whatever language the individual identified as, which is the new 'subjective' way of being 'objective'. I'm happy to use he, she or they, because it's reas

The example you've provided actually does not support you argument, just the opposite. People 'typically' have two arms? Well they 'typically' also have two legs, a sense of smell, sight, hearing, a heart, two lungs

The term 'man' infers gender while 'male' refers to sex, and has nothing to do with the term 'manliness' in the context you described. The language is 'evolving' only among a very small subset of peop

More likely that 'modern tech' is just exposing corruption that has always been there. This is just statist feudalism exposed. Modern technology is also amplifying populism, which is who the word 'Truss' ends up in all o
