Again remote first does not mean offices do not exist. Once you start working you’ll see that there’s already a lot of collaboration over the internet. It’s nothing like school

Funny how no one was complaining when they got a 50 to 200% raise by moving there. It just makes sense - why would you pay more than necessary?

My point is that "decision fatigue" is not a valid point to begin with since most people don't deal with such issues therefore it's not really relevant in the grand schemes of remote-first discussions.

So you don’t want remote first to become popular because you’re not capable of making decisions and want the company to make them for you?

I don't understand why all of that can't be conducted over the internet. I mean, we're having this conversation over the internet, right? Plus, again remote first does not mandate working from home. One could still go into th

I would argue that absorbing new information would be much easier in a remote-first environment (such meandering conversations would be available for everyone to see, not just the participants of a given conversation). The rest of what you

Remote-first is the future. I'm not sure why anyone would be against it. No one is forcing you to work from home. From a compliance and operations perspective a remote-first company is effectively forced to do a lot of things many comp

Again, you are making a lot of unsubstantiated claims here. Also, there are more options than the two you have presented. The only thing you can definitely say about Bay Area developers vs others is that they’re paid more money - a result o

I disagree that it proves your point that Bay Area engineers are somehow more talented than engineers outside of the bay Area.

I'd be curious to see if you have any evidence at all to suggest that the average engineer outside of SF is more competent than the average engineer in SF. The simpler explanation is simply that Bay Area companies have more money to sp

These types of studies always miss the point - the difference in entry input (SAT, GPA, class rank) do not necessary result in a proportional difference in output (reputation in a variety of fields). As an example, if you assume everyone wh

Florida gets a lot of flak but this is good. Transparency is the only way to fight corruption. The only real downside to such absolute transparency like this is that most people don't want to be accountable.

I’m not sure what your examples have to do with anything. Do you think people can will themselves to success independent of their circumstances? It’s obvious factors outside of your control determine 99.99% of your outcomes. Literally all t

I disagree - the hand you’re given, parents, status, genetics, etc pretty much decide the outcomes in reality. Similarly as you’ve pointed out the early rolls decide most of the outcome as well.

There are some questions I haven't been able to find good answers to in addition to the one posed in the article: 1. Is it possible to get COVID-19 twice? 2. If (1) is true, are the symptoms the same (if applicable)? 3. If (1) is true

It seems that the underlying assumption here is that people who are highly educated and work in "clinical child development or similar" are superior at giving advice. Is this actually true? I'm also skeptical of the idea that

You are comparing apples to oranges. Again, are you imposing a hard constraint on the number of comments someone can make? With the example o gave you could have a constraint in CouchDB achieve the effect but there are simply other examples

Is it trivial? Let’s say you have a back end and an app that lets you post comments, like this site. How do you stop someone from spamming comments? Each comment is represented by a row in a table so the space will grow.

In CouchDB 4.0 the backend of CouchDB will be switching to FoundationDB, which will have a 8MB limit, so they're preemptively making the change. You can remove the limit now if you'd like.

There are plenty of proxies that do that with some config like nginx. Even if you were using a relational database with a backend you’d still have to solve the same problem.

You resolve that issue the same way you would resolve the same issue if you were using Postgres - you introduce some back-end. For your example specifically I'd use a proxy.
