So far 3 out of 5 items in the list have been called into question. Seems like an entire domain of knowledge might be a bit too broad to be summarized into listicles, even with the caveat that they are "rules of thumb".
A bag of flour would be noticeably better.
I didn't really believe in schadenfreude until this happened. Now, every day is filled with pleasure!
Finding good devs is hard enough without a dictatorial style of leadership. I find that people like democracy, for some reason.
Don't forget to cook and eat that potato!
It's a magic trick!
Your sarcastic implication being that being good at managing car and space companies make him good at managing a social media company? Not only that, good enough to be better at it than his predecessor? Not only that,…
Are people really expecting Twitter to survive The Musk? His rash actions almost feel like sabotage. I honestly expect Twitter to be dead or irrelevant in 2 years at most.
I am actually familiar with some of the research actually, but thank you for your condescendence. I didn't mean to imply that the SAT or grades are not predictive of future performance, only that lower socio-economic…
> Test scores are highly predictive Any study in this area that doesn't control for socio-economic factors is near useless, because it mainly predicts that children of successful (ie rich) people will likely grow up to…
> in favor of other methods for classification and discovery Aka the toxic engagement trap. I miss the days when unfathomable AI didn't dictate what's popular.
There's still a dislike button, it just doesn't show the like to dislike ratio, so it's barely worth pressing. The outcry at the time seemed to indicate that this is explicitly to appease bigger media companies, who put…
It depends what the point is. You wouldn't let a motorcycle participate in a horse race. I think there's a place for AI art and it's fine if "manual art" remains the same. The difference can be arbitrary at times, but…
So your argument is Amazon is too dumb to be a threat? Even if we assume this is true for the present, seems very short-sighted to me.
> never found a legacy JS codebase that has a robust test suite, so any refactoring I do can be hard to test and verify. Wouldn't you just... make a test suite?
> Let me rent real servers, but expose it in a "serverless" "cloud-like" way, so I don't have to upgrade the OS and all that kind of stuff. I think you're describing platform-as-a-service? It does exist, but it didn't…
How to know if a Google project is getting shut down: Is it ad-related? If not, it's already dead and just doesn't know it yet.
To me this is obviously unethical, but wouldn't this also be obviously unconstitutional in the US? At least if done deliberately? 14th amendment and all that.
Would you consider candidates outside the US? e.g. in Canada?
The article is paywalled, but this seems like a nothing burger. The point of ESG isn't to save the planet, it's to make the world a better place to live/work in. Union busting is bad for workers and therefore society at…
But every community has their rules. Just because they're cultural rules doesn't make them anymore debatable. You: Break user space. Linus Torvalds: We don't do that here. You: I feel excluded. Good? If you want to do…
Part of the issue with the mindset of never outsourcing mission-critical tasks is, if something is not important, why are we doing it? Do we just like wasting money? For example, if I work at an accounting firm and we…
Even if that were 100% true, people don't actually know what they want. "Business requirements" undeveloped in the minds of non-technical people are just ideas. There are immeasurable differences between what people…
In a way, writing software is translating human speech into machine speech. Any good software developer is fluent in the "machine" part, but trying to "translate" from a language (and culture) you don't master is a…
