The market does not always choose to use the maximum amount of automation for everything. For example, a small business may rationally choose to wash dishes by hand rather than paying for a dishwasher. Are their meals more valuable (because

It's not tautological because it assumes that __management contributes nothing.__ Management's decisions about what to build in, how to build it, etc... are worth __nothing__ to Marxists. Related: when Marxism was actually impleme

Look. The LTV has been rejected by mainstream economists. And this has nothing to do with Austrian economics (which has also been rejected by mainstream economists, for different reasons.) Now of course, you may choose to disagree, and say

Sure, it costs more, and everyone agrees on that. Where we disagree is whether it provides more VALUE. The LTV says that it does by definition, because labor = value, and therefore more labor = more value. You may choose to disagree. Just a

How about making WASM actually work for its target use-case (the browser) rather than needing to be chaperoned around by Javascript stubs?

Big doesn't automatically mean stable. Also, the company can be successful, and yet you may not be successful within it. Ultimately, you just have to take a look at what you are good at, and what companies are likely to value that.

Fortunately, we learned from this lesson, and we'll never let elites bring in tons of outsiders to push down the price of local labor, to the detriment of everyone but themselves.

Once you leave behind the simple things like --prefix, it's not that standardized. But, arguing over this is futile, this wheel has been reinvented innumerable times.

Part of a manager's job is to suggest better measurements if the ones that are in use are flawed.

It provides a standardized interface. This is just a long-winded way of saying it's popular. It's popular, therefore people know it, therefore they view whatever it does as "the standard." Kind of like... MS Windows?

1. Managers ARE bureaucrats, though. That's what the job is, integrating employees into processes. If you want to be a principal engineer doing architecture, that's a different career track than management. 2. You should not &quot

MATLAB is available for Linux. "Just switch OSes" seems like a perfectly valid and actionable piece of advice. What's "useless" is sticking with an operating system that doesn't support the use-cases you need i

Not really. Being regularly irradiated makes you low-level radioactive. After all the pedantry is out of the way, the point is that humans on Mars already have to deal with radioactivity, which makes using nuclear power a no-brainer.
