That’s the thing. If the office was actually a place where people could feel comfortable and collaborate, I would consider going there. But going to an open space noisy office talking on Teams to people all over the world doesn’t make much

I wouldn’t call China a communist regime. They are highly capitalist. What’s communist about China other than the name of the party?

You have no idea what fascism is. You also don’t seem to understand the mindset of capitalism.

I am saying that because the sanctions haven't achieved anything positive for the last decades. At some point people just have to admit that they don't work but cause a lot of suffering. I bet if the US traded with Cuba, the commu

It almost seems the Cuban exiles want the people they left behind in Cuba to suffer as much as possible. What else have the sanctions achieved?

I know it wasn’t DOD directly. They just had budget that NASA didn’t get from Congress. As far as the moon goes, it seems to me that the current approach is cobbled together like the SLS from different ideas but the overall vision doesn’t l

The only thing these guys know is to make vehicles bigger and bigger. One day they wake up and will ask for public subsidies because Chinese manufacturers have eaten their lunch.

I don’t remember all details but it had to do with launching polar orbits. To land safely from there the wings had to be much bigger which then caused a ton of other problems.

After watching this video i have serious doubts about the whole moon program https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OoJsPvmFixU Reminds me a little of the SLS which makes no sense at all other than preserving some jobs. The Space Sh

Learning ahead definitely helps me a lot. For some reason I am not capable of learning things from scratch in one swoop. I always need to learn things a little, let them somehow settle in my brain for a while, and then go further. I always

I think American companies need to go back to focusing on producing good products at good prices instead of singlemindedly pursing short term shareholder value. A lot of capability is lost that way.

That seems the way to go unless you have insane amounts of data. We had some could guys write a pipeline in AWS for us with several steps connected by lambdas that get triggered at each step. The damn thing is just not reliable. It skips so

That’s what I do. But it’s a little bit of pain to unfreeze your credit with three bureaus when you want a new credit card. Wish there was a way to do this in one place.

The libertarians I know are against regulation. Instead you are supposed to sue the party that has injured you. Good luck proving that you were injured for example by leaded gas. It's hard enough for a government agency with many lawye

If you want to run a perfect dictatorship, just wait a few years until private companies have built perfect surveillance technology and infrastructure for the whole country. Then take it over and you have tools that Hitler, Stalin or the In

You need to be able to identify junior devs that are self driven. Or to be more general, devs of any level that are self driven. I have developed several interns and was super happy with the result. But there were a lot of other interns and

I don’t think so. Unless you get super high up, your pay increases proportionally to people under you. The next problem is that once you start cutting, you actually have to organize and manage. That’s way more difficult than saying “ I have

That's what they should have done. Have a C# interpreter with maybe a few extensions for shell stuff. Powershell is not a good .NET language and not a good shell. It's just a weird beast. A while ago I worked on a project to do pr

Consumers were not demanding the internet or computers either. But it turns out they were useful for consumers and especially for the profits of capitalists. People may not like it but AI will be an important part of our lives soon.
