This is dangerous false equivalency. Charlie Kirk was not advocating for the rights of the downtrodden. He was a right wing provocateur, and he’s on the record saying that “some gun deaths are ok” in service of the 2nd amendment, and in mak

It’s extremely pretty, there’s great food, lots of tech jobs, you meet diverse and interesting people, great public transit (for the US). There are many reasons for living in the Bay Area.

Richard Hamming . And the essay is here: https://www.cs.virginia.edu/~robins/YouAndYourResearch.html . As you point out, Its important to note that Hamming makes this observation specifically in the domain of research

If people are slacking off at home, they’re gonna slack off at work too. This notion that a low performing employee will suddenly perform better in the office is a myth that needs to die.

Exactly! Just build capacity, let other companies duke it out; ultimately they will all likely use AWS for their products anyway.

I have principles-fatigue after going through a number of companies that promise to abide by certain good sounding principles only to backtrack at the slightest pushback. I would actually trust a company more if it had no defined principles

There’s certainly some overhead, nothing is free. But the tradeoff is better insight into your system and better tools to validate issues when they arise. It can be very powerful in those scenarios. Ive spent countless hours on issues where

Somewhat OT but I just don’t like the current iteration of DevRel. Initially I saw the folks in this field as hype-persons, but their concrete output was tools that were useful for developers. The author did create this! But it was in servi

This is the best advice. There was a moment in time where being vulnerable on the net was okayish. I don’t think it is anymore. Its best to work on personal issues with your professional therapist and/or with your trusted group of frie

So sorry to hear this happened to you; thanks for sharing and glad to hear everything turned out ok. Ive heard of similar situations where a friend ended up in a house that was the scene of a crime but was charged with multiple felonies eve

Everyone should want prisons to be better; it isn’t that hard to imagine of some unfortunate circumstances that can lead to you or someone you know ending up there; its in everyone’s best interest to keep it effective, efficient and as pain

Only real long term mitigation is to move to another aws region; us-east-1 seems to suffer from all kinds of scaling challenges.

Confluent is expensive and I don’t believe LI used them; they did use OSS kafka. Im guessing that after being acquired by MS they explored other tech.

The bigger issue that nobody seems to have addressed is how a single developer could have a machine that only he had access to that could run this code with admin privileges over their ActiveDirectory. Eaton should immediately explain what

My rule of thumb is that if you have an OnCall rotation for a codebase, you should require reviews. Besides all the benefits you've mentioned, its important to spread know-how of the code so that people on the rotation don't need

Same! Its much nicer now especially since Github seems to be pretty arbitrary/rigid about when it hides files that have "too many changes". Its so much nicer to see/navigate around such changes quickly in VSCode vs tryin

This is blatantly incorrect. Before microservices became the norm you still had a lot of teams and hiring, but the teams would be working with the same code base and deployment pipeline. Every company that became successful and needed to sc

Interesting that investors can pressure Meta this way. I assumed that since Zuck has the “power shares” he can overrule anyone?

Theoretically, yes, if AWS were really focused on they could probably deliver something like databricks; all the components are off the shelf, and a significant number of databricks clusters are on aws anyway. The question though is why; th

I agree with everything you said, but I do see many, many games today that are pretty creative and innovative too! And I look forward to game creation becoming more accessible and seeing more folks able to create games in the future.

While I understand the sentiment, its often not that black and white. I was in a similar situation a few years ago, with one company doing something novel and "better for humanity" v/s just another saas that paid more. While

I don't think any existing numbers were officially changed, just that the head of BLS was fired.

I didn’t downvote you, but I do agree with the author. The boomer CTOs Ive worked under have almost always been incredibly unqualified and resistant to change. They are not moving in the same physical or digital circles and therefore need G

Its interesting how many of the comments here are criticizing the cost, the decision to commission a design firm, or that it just wouldn't work for them. In which case, great! You can choose however you want to do your home office. Thi

Ive seen some coffee shops do this, where part of the space is a “coworking area”. I imagine it requires a bit more capital investment and knowhow; I get the feeling that franchisees don’t have a lot of freedom. Some Korean coffee shops sho

How will jailing them help? Now the public is on the hook for them. Plus, more jails will be needed if you wanna move all the unhoused in there. Maybe its easier just to build more housing.

Unsurprising but its a terrible move. Github at its core is a software lifecycle management product. To keep it running requires skillsets that are much much different from that of Gen AI/ML/whatever. Its hard for me to see this a
