My whole point here is I don't understand why "Uber scale" is so large. I have worked in large organizations - smaller than Uber, but we did more stuff (as in more complexity and diversity in products - shipping software and

You should scratch below the surface because this isn't really explaining much - it does not sound like something that requires more than 100 people. Their legal team sounds like it should be twice that alone. Or am I crazy?

The stars are kind of aligning. Conservative wackadoodles, ignoring that reality has a liberal bias, are targeting social media and big tech for this aforementioned bias. Liberal socialists, ignoring that the founders of these big tech comp

There are a lot of ways to frame these problems as interesting algorithms but it doesn't really strike me as something that is troubled by scale. I've worked on similar problems where "everything is a special case" in so

I can contrast with C/C++ development, where C++17/20 are not available by default on many distros because package managers lag so far behind the curve and new projects get tied to outdated versions. I just don't really see t

Not Texas here, but You might have to adjust your statistics regionally for income. Middle class in California is upper middle class everywhere else, even adjusting for salary reduction. Leaving California put us in the 90th percentile for

Ask the CAD industry how they handle design files. VCS isn't really designed for this. The closest thing is to make sure diagrams are generated from code.

Not really what I'm thinking, I see these attempts at funding maintainers pop up each year and I think they all share the same problem and take the wrong approach.

In the back of the head this gives me an idea for a marketplace startup for software utilities but I know it's been tried before and died. I don't know how to align the incentives of creators to where we can make a marketplace whe

The same issues exist for other languages and runtimes so I'm not sure why Rust having a standard solution is a disincentive. How many ways are there to ruin a python environment?

I have put several curl|bash things into production and it's done because it's the only way to run installers that work on everything but windows without having to maintain a .deb, .rpm, and brew formula or something. Often I'

Reddit is also reliant on third party apps to get content and interaction since their own frontend and backend are terrible for everything but link and comment aggregation.
