Ehhh I’ve autoloaded lib for like 10 years and never experienced any of the problems the author says that arise from doing so.

This reads a bit like a tautology..."Crystal has not taken off because Crystal has not taken off".

Yea more or less. Things that benefit the standard of living for the population but cut into corporate profits are basically DOA.

Saying your comment was cynical is not an ad-hominem. But regardless, it sounds like you've taken my comment and applied your desire for a complete alternative reality to it. Which, I guess.

1. Just a strange take. Companies can do whatever they want. If they fail, they will fail. Companies are mere profit seeking machines. Perhaps you are thinking of non-profit orgs? 2. So what? People embrace all kinds of trends. And comp

Super weird comment. I've worked at tech co's for ~15 years on sprint teams and directly next to the CTO and everywhere in between...and they've all had product strategies. Maybe DBX sucks at executing theirs. Maybe their str

Yea I don't understand all these responses. I'm not commenting on the quality or viability of DBX's AI strategy. Because I don't know what it is! I am commenting on the OP, who is acting like they know what it is.

by rco8786 4y ago
I never said anything of the sort. DBX using AI might be a horrible flop. Nothing I said had anything to do with the [potential] success of their roadmap. Only that they have one (which, I guess, is only an assumption), and the OP doesn&#x2

I don't really understand what you are saying. That companies shouldn't have product roadmaps? That product roadmaps are mutually exclusive to sustainable growth or healthy profit? That companies using new tech are only doing so t

The difference is that you worked there. You knew the company. You knew the industry. You knew what the actual current strategy was! This is just some rando internet person making reductive statements about a company whose current offerings

I am so glad someone is doing this. I’ve been using PD for 10 years and still can’t figure out the UI. Things that should be dead simple (IMO) like adjusting schedules requires a separate spreadsheet to figure out.

To be fair, at the time I am writing this the negative comment about the JVM is heavily downvoted and the top 2 comment threads are very positive.

"the massive risk and uncertainty of replacing a CEO" This is not what we're talking about. This is about risk to the company, not risk to the CEO. "Essentially CEOs are able to hold the board hostage." Exactly. The

It’s completely insane. A new Ford Ranger is considered a “compact” pickup truck. Nothing significantly smaller exists. But it is the exact same size as a 2004 F150.

by rco8786 4y ago
It makes a ton of sense. Even a base F150 is like 15 feet tall nowadays. A 2023 Ford ranger is bigger than a 2000 F150. I imagine that the market for small trucks didn’t just disappear completely

Relatively speaking the bigger the company the better the job security. Nothing is ever risk free. But a job at a large pubco is way more secure than a job at a random startup with 6 months of runway. It was exactly the same a generation ag
