   Ok a few points, If you're a writer try not to use AI or have the gallantry to say so if you do. Who's/how work is done is not a fading question This sentimental, out of breath tone of this beleaguered experimenter could be i

   I agree! When memory became a commodity --- there are periods in markets when nobody confers distinction --- then maybe you keep your hand in to break even or small profit. But keep your eye on the next evolutionary step. Compute co-located

   TLs should have 7-10 people. Bonafide middle managers should have ~7-10 direct reports meaning they're dealing with around 100 people underneath them. My better half deals with management and a lot of cross functional management. The a

   I've found Equinix [1] cheap, and really good. It's 100% bare metal. I've never had a problem with it. And the DC servers (at least) are often equipped with Mellanox Connect5 NICs great if you're into low level systems p

   I was just discussing this general subject with my better half. She showed me a corner of an OD chart at a going-concern with several "managers" and "directors" having between 2 and 7 direct reports. Context: cost-cuttin

   I worked for bbg for 16 years. I should have quit 5-7 years ago. Anyway I'd be worried, assuming this story is correct noting there was no noise about this on the inside -- for employees.

   Correct! Now, only if we behaved like that was true.

    Seagate - in this article is skank on parade. I don't think lou gerstner or Berkshire Hathaway guys ever had to go around giving themselves props for honestly. At at the same time: why in the heck didn't the the prosecutors demand

    Haha .. it's the geopolitical equivalent of confuse a cat (of Monty Python fame). Japan better watch out. They could be next. Meow indeed!

    Clearly ... presumably with Taiwan in the background. I don't think the Chinese much care about these territories or Russia's announced, preferred, status except what it means for them domestically again Taiwan. Surely it's o

    Yah - usually Chinese government employees are smarter. This sounds like some recycled Russian drivel.

    I'm holding my breath. The first day out I ran into a link problem. Zig linked statically not dynamically as instructed and while the task was produced, it didn't work anyway. That's not gonna be fixed I believe until 0.11.0.

    For my interests (DPDK, NIC, low level storage I/O etc.) I have high hopes for Zig. And for reasons other have explicated over the last year on HN, I think it'll work much better than Rust. Readers should have realistic expectatio

    For chuckles I asked ChatGPT to write me a sort function on integers. It dutifully served up code to call a library sort function. Technically correct, but I am and remain unimpressed.

    Thanks for the feedback. For example, the US Congress really could use some of the technical bureaucratic competence I hear Taiwan has. US institutions are in post-WWII lows right now, which is like a moist, dark, sugary place for attractin

    Well, if China invades it'll have even less incentive to maintain anything remotely like pre-invasion. You gave HK as the example. That was only paperwork to get in the front door.

    For the loser? That's like the mob's take on what practical operational control means. >My subjective experience as an American was that Democracy is more healthy in Taiwan than it is in America. Cause why?

    I'd encourage everyone to read: https://globalbrief.ca/2020/06/zeal-and-chinas-wolf-warrior-... This goes way further than most to explain "Chinese characteristics" (my term usage not link's).

    Although off topic from the original post, would you entertain this question? What's Taiwan's position on integration with China? What does Taiwan want for itself? I'd like to hear more about that minus American and Chinese i

    Good bit of logic and satire and sort of proof by contradiction. I think (not sure) the above point is that if you could show it's malevolent, big implications follow. Probably user j-pg thinks it's not and def not an example of a

    I hate to say it but yah. There is no institutional backbone in Congress anywhere to do course correct. If memory serves corp taxes are down about 20pct from Reagan while my W2 taxes are high. I've been in the apple building in Cuperti
