I’m amused that the 100x dev caught more flack than a likely solo $B bootstrap. In my view developer ability follows the Pareto distribution. I was born to program and have done it all my life and it’s all I do. I’ve…
Yes, I would rate my development productivity to be roughly 100x of an average developer.
It’s one of those secret but profitable niches.
AFAIK the Afghan commanders stole their soldiers pay so the soldiers sold their weapons to the Taliban. The Taliban taking it back over seems like a natural consequence.
Nothing new was discovered here and the key terminology is used incorrectly. To be fair, most of the industry are amateurs, but most people don’t write medium posts and continue to argue their ignorance on HN.
US companies are now being hoisted by their own petard. There are not that many exploitable smart people left, even internationally. In my applied research niche they already hired internationally and the ability was…
You mean Germany?
I presume he would have known his writing style was unique and expected people to figure it out once he got what he wanted. It’s an interesting read.
It occurred in both Windows and Ubuntu. In Windows “Never” wasn’t an option for Sleep (edit; I forget if it wasn’t an option or selecting it didn’t work), in Ubuntu the usual disable sleep commands didn’t work. Someone…
The SFO has a habit of not finding sufficient evidence, I wouldn’t read too much into that other than perhaps they too are incompetent. In my view they are also likely corrupt as well.
AFAIK it was good old fashioned accounting fraud. Losses booked as marketing expenses, lifetime revenue of contracts booked immediately, bundling overpriced software with underpriced hardware to change the revenue mix…
The Serious Fraud Office has corruption problems; so I wouldn’t expect much justice out of them at all. Mike Lynch is the bad guy in this. Autonomy was an intentional fraud that was offloaded into HP - with the help of…
A theory that I ascribe to is that Long Covid is viral induced CFS/ME. As someone with hEDS I've battled CFS/ME for most of my life. I don't want to celebrate too soon but in the last few weeks do I feel like I have now…
Megadose B3 2000mg per day does seem to be commonly effective. The theory is NAD+. Gives me a headache so an aspirin is needed as well but was one of the first treatments that pulled me out of fatigue.
And I think it’s weird when people assume that nature would conform to morality. That would be convenient and I’m suspicious of convenience. It’s a proposed causation hence the ‘may’ qualifier. I’m suggesting people…
It could be genetic. RCCX gene mutations may make people more susceptible to CF/ME and being a software developer. For most people CF/ME will present as burnout.
I’m sure the Navy wished it wasn’t canceled, and the Marines probably would have been happy with Harriers. The stealth window of usefulness is closing anyway with improved radar.
Threat mitigation is largely nuclear shield; but if you’re taking about maintaining air superiority then the F-22 is where it is at. The Navy carrier fleets and Marines are force projection. The JSF were sold around…
The F-22 was sufficient for threat mitigation. The F-35 raison d'être was cost reduction, after that was exportability which again was supposed to help with cost reduction. Edit; comparing the logic of a 'but for' vs a…
The F-35 was framed as a way to save money.
It's likely genetic - i.e. an inherited Anxiety disorder. I have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS). It disproportionally affects Gifted people and causes a bunch of physical problems that exhibit as mental…
Didn’t Galileo recant and it was his assistant who was killed?
My grandparents were farmers and used generic selection to pacify their cattle herd. It was very clear from their work that behavior was inherited. I was already predisposed to the concept. Even still it was a surprise…
I quit my BigTech job and all social media. Something I said was misinterpreted as condescending to a female colleague and I was reprimanded by HR. Within a year she made the same complaint against everyone else in the…
Clearly they need a seasonal workers visa program like what farmers have. There are many people south of the boarder who are not afraid of a hard days work. Something must be done about this unskilled labor shortage.…
