I had to dig around but I think this the one I remember. There are two other reports linked in the comments. https://old.reddit.com/r/preppers/comments/11tblpp/found_it_...

The government has done studies showing that the vast majority of the population would be dead not long after a sustained nationwide power outage. All it takes is people missing a few meals before the fun starts.

I agree, but an actual RIF would probably be less devastating to morale.

I would assume that given enough hints from AI and if it is deemed important enough humans will come in to figure out the “first principles” required to arrive at the conclusion.

Quite a bit of romanticizing goes on with this fantasy, but I think it does illuminate why software jobs tend to pay so well. It’s usually not very fun, hard to learn, hard to keep up with, and if it weren’t for the pay many people would no

People brazenly defy the RTO requests at my company. I suppose management could start turning the screws on people, but I have a feeling enough people are still willing to quit to make that impractical.

We frequently put the burden on teachers and “the system” for outcomes, but rarely do we talk about improving our cultural and societal attitudes towards education. If you come from a family and community that does not value education and v

I was trying out a flask and tailwind based course on udemy and one of the first things they wanted me to do was download rye and do a bunch of other boilerplate stuff. I didn’t fancy downloading some random executable from the internet and

I just bought a job site table saw for some home improvement projects. I’m so friggin wary of it. Bought all the safety upgrades I could find. Nice push sticks. Micro jig gripper blocks, feather boards. Try to run the guard at all times as

A couple of the places I have worked at they would hire an outside firm to conduct these type of surveys and they would anonymize the feedback. I saw the reports provided to some of the managers and the feedback in certain areas was clearly

I am still miffed that they renamed Azure AD to Entra ID. Definitely not a needless and confusing change.

Many people take inflation as an immutable law of nature, but that has not always been so. Food for example, for a long time, became cheaper. Computers and technology as well. Think how nuts it would be if you could get a better house for l

Dealing with IAM in the context of a cloud provider is honestly a dream scenario. Imagine being responsible for it in an enterprise with thousands of users and applications. Many of these apps were written before the concept of IAM even exi

Knorr stock concentrate is pretty good in a pinch. Cheap, plentiful, and fast.

Quickly turning into abandonware. I tried moving my paw library from one computer to another and it crashes opening the file. Had to start from scratch.

In some cases sure, but some things require management due to the nature of reality, and there is nothing to be done about it other than manage the problem. Take something banal such as DLP tools. There is no way to “solve” people stealing

I worked exclusively in Ruby for many years and this was never a problem I experienced. Or if I did it was such a non issue it was fixed and moved on. I can agree that the behavior of casting to a number type should probably be undefined. B

I used speedify on iOS for a while and really liked it, but iOS’ abysmal ability to maintain a connection to a vpn was a major pain point.

I agree with this. People will argue by counterexample, but those are the exception rather than the rule. Most internal software is so specific to the company or industry that it came from that the broad applicability is nearly nil. That im

Sidekiq is a work of art. I’m so glad Mike Perham was able to turn it into a nice business. Truly well deserved.

It’s unambiguously true. Look at how many people graduate with an education major vs other majors such as mathematics or engineering. If you deny that a mathematics degree is significantly more difficult than an education degree then I have

A lot of my teacher acquaintances have this mistaken idea that they should be paid a lot more because they are “teaching the next generation” or any other variation of that delusion. They don’t seem to understand that the reason they don’t

Horrible. Just horrible. I could not finish it. My 3 year old boy is the most precious thing to me in the world. Losing a child is incomprehensible.
