> Markets can't decide "families can have only one child" Sure they can. Just make it unaffordable to do anything else.

I worked with someone who had previously worked on park robotics, and apparently they had to guarantee that the character could not injure a child to be able to put them in parks - a particularly high barrier to actually doing so.

Not to speak to the rest of the topic, but focusing on direct sales: I'm almost certain Ford would love to sell direct, but the various franchise laws in different states make it next to impossible. On top of this, dealership owners ar

To give my own anecdata to counter yours: every time I've flown with children on United they've gone out of their way to make it straightforward. The only better airline I've encountered for it is Virgin Atlantic, which is, t

As Branson used to say, the best way to become a millionaire is to be a billionaire and start an airline.

"Put it in the hold" is a decent argument for point-to-point flights, or when you do gate checking. Otherwise it's a crap-shoot whether your stuff makes it (which can end a two-day business trip before it begins), what shape

From the article: > In the observability world, if you're building an agent for metrics and logs, you're probably writing it in Go. I'm pretty unconvinced that this is the case unless you happen to be on the CNCF train. Pe

Because lugging around two child seats when you get out at the other end fucking sucks.

The difference, as usual with this kind of thing, is scale.

Strange, I have a lot of good things to say about both it and Terraform. Probably some specifics might be more useful there...

I believe the original GitHub Actions was in Go - it used HCL which was at that point only really implemented in Go. Quite the move backwards to switch to YAML.

Obviously this is not the only reason - even the Free Software Foundation require IP assignment via a CLA. Whether you can or will sign one is a different matter (I will not).

It's not like many of those places weren't produce slop beforehand, either.

IBM did not do that, HashiCorp was a public company before their acquisition.

The change in baseline provision is certainly true. I did a similar number of nights to you this year, but have certainly never encountered a lack of linens and would consider a credit card chargeback if I ever did.

I’d assume that was a franchise hotel, and calling Marriott corporate would have got you some compensation at minimum.

I do. Most of my travel is alone for work so I don’t care about a door, but I always call ahead and refuse to book hotels with shower curtains.

A new Turing test: when all the AGI worker bots would rather gargle razor blades than use Microsoft Teams, we might be close.

To be clear, I think both unions are a good idea, or neither are. You can’t pick and choose though - the arguments for one are largely the arguments for the other. Your statistics are also trivially falsifiable by simple counterexample - th

No argument from me there. I’m observing, not advocating ;-)

(Which are, of course, far more similar than people that identify with either extreme would ever admit).

> I would ask who is more qualified than their parents to instill in their children judgement and sense? That largely depends on the parents. Many are _wildly_ unfit for this.

> Do you feel European or British? English first, European second. Indeed, the people of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland likely feel the same, and it’s unclear why that union should be considered worthwhile when a larger one is not.

It’s really not though. Plenty of systems are built in Go, Erlang etc that do not have the architectual monstrosities which commonly show up in object-oriented code, especially when a Java or C# expert beginner has been let loose.

This article is really about hosting Temporal _workers_ in ECS - which is the "easy" part - not running the Temporal service itself. That would be a valuable follow-up!
