I was just in Azores a few months ago and was seriously considering the move there. Truly one of the most naturally beautiful places I’ve even heard the chance to see. I hope that everyone is able to stay safe and get through this alright.

Let’s just download thousand of pieces of random unaudited code that has some level of updates almost daily from people I’ve never met before and run it on my machine using an account which also probably has root access and where that same

As an alternative I’ve had great experiences so far with GitHub’s Codespaces. I couldn’t see myself going back to just running everything outside of at least some containerised environment at a minimum even if not fully remote. I do a bunc

I’ve followed the Lit project for a while and would strongly recommend it as as an amazing option that is currently only at a tiny fraction of its real potential currently. As far as I know this is what the YouTube is moving to as well alon

I believe they are also moving their front end to another Google project too https://lit.dev/ not sure where they are on that. As a side note to the original post, I wish gRPC-web was better supported or alternatively that

I don’t think taking security advice from an economist that also happens to fly in the face of all the security experts is really what we need at the moment. We now have huge amounts of evidence that appeasement as a strategy in general doe

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic with that second paragraph but obviously getting past extremely complicated firewalls is a pretty key skill set of a signals intelligence agency and the one that comes built into your home router isn’t

It’s not a law about compensation it’s a law about salary as far as I know. So total compensation is salary plus bonuses in that scenario.

As I said in another comment though surely this is the precise reason for bonus structures no? Where you as the business owner / operator can both reward the above and beyond efforts and try to incentivise more of it in the future.
557.
by mhoad 5y ago
That is what bonus structures are for. Where you can pay extra in addition in order to incentivise better outcomes for your business.

Correct, in fact I would say that for the higher salary you are also giving up a lot of legal rights as well. The idea that you can be fired for any reason at anytime in a lot of the country is an incredibly stressful concept for a meaningf

I don’t know this sounds like it maps to a SQL query to me assuming you use consistent job titles and possibly the concept of “grades” e.g Level 1 Software Engineer

I think these proposals go a long way towards closing the asymmetrical advantage that employers have when it comes to salary negotiations and generally creates a much better functioning labour marketplace as a result.

I’m saying that you appear not to have any real background on this topic and maybe you should speak on it with a little less certainty. Reading a few Glenn Greenwald tweets doesn’t make you a geopolitical or military analyst and what you ha

You understand this thing is literally hours old right? Do you have any experience with anything military related or some reason why you are trying to speak with any level of confidence on this?

I don’t know where to even start with this. They have already crossed the border. Almost every point you have raised here is severely detached from reality. Sometimes it’s ok to just say you don’t know and move on.

What an absolute failure of a headline.

But this actually highlights exactly what I mean. What if I simply stood up a plain old Apache server to host my website but that happened to be hosted in the US. No analytics, just a few HTML files and that’s it. I’m still in this scenario

by mhoad 5y ago
I suspect this might end up as a slightly trickier scenario because when you get down to the details it’s hard at a technical level to make a distinction between a server log file and a tool like analytics which takes those same bits of dat

The industry is notoriously lopsided in terms of supply and demand for talent. You could have made Facebook money elsewhere, you chose Facebook. I straight up do not trust anyone with Facebook on their CV post 2016.
