Datadog did something similar to me at a previous company- they were miserable. We tried to use their credits from the AWS program, but then they kept adding more and more requirements to the program. They eventually wanted to go full MLM,

That's not a compromise, that's RTO. Also, I've been in this industry for 17 years. Malwarebytes (VP), Vicarious (VP), Rad AI (VP), Explosion AI, Aptible, and now Comcast. Every one of those companies except Vicarious had a r

It's absolutely silly for the RTO people to force their preferences on everyone. The fact that RTO folks only consider it a win if everyone comes back, rather than trying to build out flexibile working conditions that make everyone h

This seems like a lot of conjecture without any numbers or facts to back it up. You assume that making Group B return to office won't affect their productivity, while making Group A work from home will. However, I know for me personall

It's also just false based off of the numbers. In the US at least immigrants are more likely to open businesses and less likely to commit crimes. Immigrants are just as likely to have bachelors or post grad degrees than non immigrants,

They're claiming that they've killed themselves as a business hobbyists, which isn't exactly wrong. During their supply chain issues they made it clear they were prioritizing their commercial customers over the hobbyist marke

It's completely open source, so you can run it yourself. I've read through a lot of the code and have contributed to it- it's pretty well organized.

The Home Assistant team has a full company behind them, and they sell cloud services for the app for people who want it. Zigbee2MQTT has 113 sponsors. If you run them both with docker then updating is pretty simple with no package breaks. I

The 400k is a red herring anyways. Not every engineer makes that, and not ever person who laid off was an engineer. The layoffs affected recruiters, marketing, sales, and a ton of areas that were not engineers. Lower level engineers were al

That's how I feel about meetings in general, regardless of whether they're in person or on video. At least with video I can turn off my camera when I need to blow my nose.

That's weird because I work remotely, socialize with my colleagues all the time, regularly solve problems for them in quick meetings, and generally don't encounter any of the concerns you do. Companies with bad cultures are going

Do you really think that planning a cross country move only took them a week? That would be pretty damn impressive.

The reality is it's easy to accommodate both. There are a ton of hybrid companies out there. If someone wants a desk in an office by all means give them one. Supporting both groups of people gives you the best talent pool to work with.

Any company that forces a return to office is going to lose some of their best employees, as those are the ones who will have the easiest time finding a better job. RTO is basically just a backdoor layoff, only they end up losing the people

> Someone at Cisco did the math on how much a license would cost and some snarky soul, kin to my own, said "Are we sure it wouldn't be cheaper to buy Splunk?" That's from a friend of mine in a tech chat.

I know this article is all about the stdlib, but having built multiple multiprocess applications with python I eventually built a library, QuasiQueue to simplify the process. I've written a few applications with it already. https:&#x2

There isn't any debt to service. Taking funding isn't the same as taking debt (in some ways its worse, in some better), and there's no direct interest or payment they have to make every month like if it was debt. The problem

The CNCF has made exceptions on their license policy before, specifically for MPL based software. It'll probably be easier for OpenTF to go through that process than to relicense (which is likely not even possible for anyone other than

Namecheap is passing along 209% of their cost. They're raising prices on their cut more than Verisign is on theirs.
