The other side of this coin is that if you are are forced into actions which you "know" are wrong and just accept it, then maybe the job is already dead for you anyway. By fighting back you are testing a number of…
Next year: GPT-NG offloads it's answers to Amazon Mechanical Turk, and we've come full circle.
"You're fired"
Depends on your definition of high performer. If you prize delivering short-term value by chugging through the task pile faster than other people can, then sure this article is not aligned with your ideals. That is not…
Look forward to it. I'd be interested to hear how your tool compares with Facebook WDT[1], as that would be my go-to right now if someone asked me for a fast point-to-point data transfer solution. [1]…
Interesting, but somewhat misses the point; the reason people want an alternative to Aspera is that no-one wants to pay for file transfer tools.
Do you mean large EU companies are more similar to large US companies, or more similar to small EU companies? I presume the former, which would be a shame but not entirely unexpected since I imagine (in the tech…
By your own argument, foreign companies can navigate the rules for selling into Europe just fine - so what is stopping a European company from doing the same? If there is any remaining problem it is that the rules are…
Possibly also just "too many startups not doing anything valuable, captained by people with their head up their ass".
Which will arrive first - the year of viable fusion, or the year of Linux on the desktop?
Same here - I'm ready to move on from my 2015 XPS13, but having recently got an M1 Mac for work I'm now not prepared to compromise on battery life. If a major Linux distro (Ubuntu or Fedora) is shown to work well on the…
1. Be a sociopath 2. Move to Silicon Valley 3. ??? 4. Profit
That does not match up with my own experience at all. Maybe the service teams are less heavy on LPs due to not being customer-facing?
From within AWS, it just feels like we push people too hard. Service teams are too small relative to their goals, sales teams have unrealistic growth targets and also double as support for needy/incompetent customers,…
I cancelled my subscription last week precisely because of the poor UX. It really pisses me off that they charge what feels like a disproportionate amount (certainly more than I've ever spent on music elsewhere), offer…
It is a sign of the trying times we live in that I saw the extra "z"s in your post and instead of assuming a typo, I immediately think of Russian hackers infiltrating this platform.
When I saw "tipping in advance" I thought of Starbucks, though I'm not sure how much that is opportunism and how much it is now an expectation just like a restaurant.
You can't say "you went into an establishment with cheaper prices and knew this was a requirement" when there is no actual choice - it applies everywhere as far as I've seen; it's not like I can pause my business trip…
What you are describing is "mindfulness" exercises; basically a modern take on meditation. I have the app "Meditation Studio" which consists of some softly-spoken people talking you through breathing exercises and…
I remember meeting a senior AMD engineer a few years ago who deflatedly said people there were happy as long as the stock was above $12. Bet he's a bit cheerier today!
I subscribe to the Economist too and perceive their reporting as still being reasonably libertarian without venturing into tinfoil-hat territory, but being in the UK I guess I get both a different balance of articles…
(Saving the article to read later) My first thought on seeing the title: my experience is that this is a causal loop; the key is not to focus on how good/happy people are at their peak, but how to reverse a downward…
They probably can't, which is why I'm pessimistic about the idea being viable - unless there is some way for the application to be open-source and quasi-federated; for example with people/companies/communities hosting…
I'd pay $5-ish per month for social media if it came with no ads or data harvesting - just a more privately scoped version of Facebook with some of the useful bits like event scheduling and discussion groups. Of course…
