If the buyers' dogma is that the housing market will always go up, it is a great deal to buy/build very expensive houses. They will always appreciate. Reality will disagree at some point.

I think the most common mistake is the assumption that the coordination by the manager is essential to supply direction and avoid errors and mistakes. This is consistently assumed without actually measuring the amount and severity of mist

If the reason we are discussing it is the climate effects, we need to look at systemic total CO2-equivalent emissions which are around 50 gigatons per year.

From my limited experience: If the gemeinde wants more of the kind of professional skills you bring they will process the paperwork within a week. There is a huge difference between cantons and gemeindes. There are tons of information onl

I am really not trying to be an asshole. This is my limited experience. Real estate prices are what I see as current. I am sure they were lower before, and outside the main tech regions, as always, everywhere. Rental prices are accurate if

Plenty of options to fix that problem. E.g. a cheap addition to existing installations: aircode.se Limited but sane research from around 2013(?) points to even cheaper options of ventilation treatment.

Delivery drones are constructed for fairly narrow usage scenarios, and will get more specialised with time. For short hops with light loads air drones are already better than traditional solutions if they are allowed to be used as intended.

Regulatory compliance is, in many areas, a major cost of development. Sometimes the largest. Much of the regulation is in form, not function. Comply with box ticking and you pass, regardless of whether the product is safe in reality or not.

Agree. Misaligned expectations. A todo list is an overhead. It is only helpful if it actually helps you remember / plan / coordinate / communicate more than the cost of maintenance. Common misconception / misuse: a todo

Trolling is done in bad faith. Exploratory discussion is (hopefully) done in good faith. Allowing for rough corners and prickly spikes makes it possible to have more efficient and productive interactions. But only if participants act in goo

From what I see when I step in to help various organisations improve I'd argue the opposite. Google docs improves coordination, which is the largest real cost of using ms office. To the point where most orgs have structured their whole

"just works" is a big factor. Another part is front end vs back end. I still get contacted occasionally on various back end and infrastructure stuff I built from 1995-2010, while I never hear from anyone about the user facing code

> middle man role is visibly unnecessary Yep. One way forward is to move "middle" to other leaf node tasks in organisation. I have restructured a bunch of organisations towards globally distributed remote work since early 2000s

Both IKEA skarsta (€200 manual) and bekant (€500 electric) are great. I've helped several of my friends install them this year. It's easy to switch out the desk surface to whatever you want. I switched out the plastic for a much l

+1 for ms ergo sculpt - unless you have above average size hands. For me there is a plastic raised edge below the wrist support that very uncomfortably cuts into my hand. I have above average but not large hands. I've recommended it to

I honestly apologise. I did not pass my statement through my net post filter, as I should have done. That is completely my failure. No snarkiness or diminutisation intended, just my poor formulation. As for the curves. Do I interpret your p

Cmon Andy. According to the graphs you reference: October incidence is comparable to April, while October hospitalisation is much lower than in April. Have another cup-o-joe and tell me why I'm wrong ;)

Want data behind that statement. From what I've seen it is the other way around. Though I do not have significant data myself. I did a transition for a company back around 2003. Total cost of transition was a net saving already in the

Let it die. Free up lots of skilled engineers to work in smaller more productive enterprises. E.g. the Nokia collapse [1]. The growth a few years after the dinosaur death is significantly better for society than keeping the beast alive on l

Be careful when changing running style. If you change too fast you increase the risk of injury. Happened to me. Had knee problems. Switched to barefoot running with short fast step and very light to no heel impact. Felt great! But I pushed
