Salesforce buying Slack made absolutely no sense, but I find the comparison to Teams strange. IME orgs use Teams when they're already in the Microsoft ecosystem since there isn't a great argument for purchasing Slack when you alre

At $599 a month per employee. I also still need the answers to all of those questions per country, even if Remote is the company handling it.

Sure but that's hiring contractors and wasn't how I read the question.

I've done this, it's surprisingly complicated. Here are some of the issues I've run into. * Payroll: how do I pay you, what's the frequency of payment in the region, how do deductions work, is overtime a thing? * Working

The appeal is that Facebook would control the hardware and software for a platform, so they couldn't get locked out of it or come to rely on functionality that the vendor removes (like Apple did with IDFA). It could also allow them to

I don't understand why this is legal. First how is it not false advertisement that a feature called "Full Self-Driving" isn't that? This isn't a marketing mistake, it is lying to users about what this technology doe

I'm horrified by so many of the comments here that seem to lack even the most basic of human decency. Allow me to fill people in for those who have never uprooted your life and moved across the world for a job. It is a massive commitme

What do you mean by “spot”? I feel like half the articles on this site have been “crypto is an insanely dangerous pyramid scheme”.

This sounds like if you spliced together tape of Rogan and Jobs with scotch tape. An interesting concept but I never felt like I was listening to a conversation between two people. Jobs sounds weirdly far away, he also was never a "fas

That’s horrible to do to people. Imagine being the Stadia employees who lied to developers while management knew for months that they were shutting it down. My respect for Google continues to plummet.

Yeah I’d be glad to talk about it. Was part of a team that was asked to design a whistleblowing software platform for large corporate and government customers. The rest of the stack was RDS Postgres but this whistleblowing app had super dif

DevOps as suggested before would be a decent fit but that will require quite a bit of training as you go. I don't know if you have the appetite for that or not. I have a coworker in a similar situation who pivoted to being really the a

It's not a long-term problem because they're going to have to add support for RCS at some point, meaning Android users will have a similar experience to iMessage with their iOS friends. Apple wasn't going to port iMessage to

I love how the website makes me feel like I've teleported back to 2001.

What a shockingly dishonest title. Well first, the relief bill is smaller by a lot because there are now 2 relief packages "worth a total of $908 billion. The first bill, with a $748 billion price tag, will include all the spending bot

I love this sort of bold thinking and think it’s long past due as part of the climate change conversation. Too much has been made of technical solutions I think in part because there is a motivation among those who design and sell that tech

I mean it depends on whether you are doing anything with the pages and if they’re followed up on. As someone who has been on various oncall rotations for a decade I would describe that as a pretty heavy paging load for an average rotation.
