The post seems to not address the fact that different product phases exist which in turn affect the software. Similarly, teams are different and get assembled for different purposes. There is also a difference if software was created in the

OMG the planning system is definitely an issue in this country. I did try to wing it but had to demolish a small structure, retention was not approved. Their letters are insanely threatening, like you can go to jail or pay a fine in million

I would not be surprised if their system breaks somewhere between us clicking submit and some storage system. Their HR stuff is terrible.

I have so many mixed feelings about it. I mean there OSS software already, nobody prevents its use. It would have been better to just give OSS grants to SMEs who use OSS that originates in EU. But this is internet we are talking about, if I

Starlink terminals are popular, they put them on drones to avoid jamming (Starling jamming exists but not that easy for now). It might be their sales are inflated due to its use at war.

I’ve seen some numbers related to datacenters in Ireland and they would stress price per MW as a way to see where to build them. But then you have depreciation of equipment as well. Depreciation can be played with when filing taxes though.

If you look at the IPO filings you’ll see that Spacex as we know it is just a small part of the expected revenue generator. It is supposedly Grok and AI, hence Google competitor.

I personally look at the license and say no. If the license does not respect my contributions and just farms my input then why bother?

This stuff is very popular in the Baltics, there are many payment options and banks provide the necessary connections to be able to complete payments for the users using 2fa auth. Not to mention crypto. e.g. check out varle.lt as an example

If you ever worked with any of the UK gov or agencies you’d understand why it happens. Despite having its own IT in every agency those same agencies buy externally because “it is too difficult”. IT is entangled beyond belief and some of the

Stripe is dual headquartered in the US and in Ireland afaik. They tried to avoid having just a satellite in Irl, which other companies do but which makes it harder to take decisions independently.

Even within MS Azure Linux is at odds because it is not working in WSL out of the box. Folks had to port stuff to AZL away from ubuntu but without an easy path to use WSL to continue development. Sure you could adopt it but there is somethi

Kinda cool, but the comments here also reveal associated alternatives. If isolation is important then you probably need to switch to at least gVisor and think about firecracker (needs kvm support). Otherwise, caddy, shell scripts can achiev

if we agree that consciousness is an emergent phenomena, and then compare the complexities involved, LLM is just but a tiny part of what the consciousness needs. Think about molecular biology, about nerves and input processing. It is not ju

Everyone is serious about it but the problem lies in capital markets and investment funds and the fact that Europe is not a single country (multiple languages, slight difference in some laws). Banks tend to be too conservative and local inv

Very similar experience. As an example I had to user Naver and Kakao maps in Korea instead of Google and those apps gave me sort of another perspective that other apps can be better than G for sure. For youtube I have been fighting the addi

There are “a few odd” things here. It is not entirely clear if this is sort of a rage bait blog post as well. What looks to me they do not even care if you are good “engineer” rather look for prompters and then use their contributions to im

Surely we want impact to be seen in our lives and not after our funeral. In such a case it is easier to think about huge things in the first part of the career as attainable, but later in life you might have 15 years left for which you will

A mention of a “rewrite” triggered. Whoever does rewrites is effectively out of ideas on what to do next. This is an opportunity cost and the team/company chooses what is more important and the rewrite is never at the top. So even prom

A typical example would be the researchers which are evaluated based on papers and new stuff they put out into the wide blue world. But if you are on a product side this makes little sense because you need to match “features” to the require

Some people do not take no for an answer. This is bordering on absurd. But on the other side what I miss is some explanation if forensic analysis helps here? Presumably the messages stay on a phone and you can recover them. If that is the c

One important part is not expanded on - incentives. If you really think about it that is the crux of the problem. If I am recognized for creating documents, PRs, features, decks, token use, and NOT for doc/PR/deck reviews or feedb

There is a reason why countries in Europe have such laws. US did not have a major war for quite a while on their own soil which affects your thinking. We do not want to reignite national socialism or communism, we do not like to see news ch
