Lustre is a pure-bread racehorse. It is not something the general masses should ever take a ride on; or even get up close and personal with. It will bite you; kick you; piss on you; crap on you; stomp on you; and generally try to kill you

Tesla has also killed people with this decision. They've had one fatal crash (at least) due to image based getting confused by a semi truck with a white cargo container in bright sunlight. It thought nothing was in that space and cha

Yes, and even in smaller org's (above 20) the employees are able to setup an employee council that helps management steer the company. It's not something that can be rejected by management. For someone from North America it can be

Sorry, my post came off negative. A lot can be done with cubesats but the issue is size, weight, and power. Considering a high resolution satellite is the size of a school bus (the short version) it's hard to pack comparable tech int

This is really bad as Atlassian is like a prize winning show pony -- great marketing and webinars but once you get deeply into the product usage you find all sorts of problems and open issues. BitBucket has been waiting for 2FA for 5 years
