I assumed the union talks were for the lower-paid foundation service staff more than the professional class, though I do think there's value in devs/ops organizing to demand more favorable work conditions. At any rate, Amazon is w

Im not one for centrist truth synthesis. The only people who are against unions are those who are trained to be.

Did you read the article? The implication is that union discussions caused the pullout, not the "toxic minority voices". It's more evidence of Amazon's relentless exploitation of labor.

Hard disagree here. The tides are finally starting to shift on this and customers are demanding it -- no need to capitulate now.

(The problem, in fact, is that the significance of monads in Haskell in terms of the side-effect model has nothing to do with category theory. The "side-effects" quite literally occur outside of these theoretical constructs.)

> Finally, efforts to police the literature need to be valued as highly as the publication of original data. I don't think even the author would agree with this if it were about anyone other than them.

The money is absolutely real, and the point is that NYC has what Amazon wants, Amazon does not need corporate subsidies, and that NYC should be leveraging its talent pool and thriving economy in order to generate more revenue for the city.

I use it more as a helpful guide than as gospel. Compared to arbitrary versioning systems where you have no idea whether something will break or not, you have a bit more insight as to the nature of the upgrade. You still need to run tests a

Lol try having kids and see for yourself how "generous" it is. We've been "fully-covered" for pregnancy and delivery for both kids and still had to go on payment plans to cover the costs.
