But many countries have anti-trust regulations that take effect once competition is reduced to a certain level. If a company like Uber can be divided into multiple Ubers that have to compete with each other, then the…
I don't think that's true; there are many self-taught artists.
There's an ambiguity with "mid-Atlantic". Sometimes it means "trans-Atlantic", an accent which Buckley, Burns, and many pre-1950 movie stars spoke with (while on-screen anyway). It falls somewhere between the accents…
Less density doesn't imply less housing, especially when empty land is cheap, as it typically is in the USA. You just use more space. I hate cars, and I hate how expensive housing is, but as far as I can tell, housing…

Why is anyone forced to use Facebook? I, for one, get along great without it.
I'm not a lawyer, but I don't expect this to be a a "hill to die on" at all. If this professor is unconnected to the sanctioned Tornado Cash service, then Github shouldn't have to worry about running afoul of the…

What's wrong with fad and hype driven development? It may be better to replace software regularly than to find yourself or your organization dependent on something ossified in place. In the long run it might be better…

The people handling the emergencies should get paid considerably more than developers - when they system is down, the real, actual, company-sustaining money stops coming in.

Even if it were built perfectly, if engineers are still on-call, they would have to arrange their after-hours time around the possibility of an incident.
Engineers can run what they build during normal working hours. Oncall is a scourge not because of the experience of technical problems, but because people already working full time have to arrange their lives outside of…
As many of the other posts point out, helicopter parenting happened. Instead of forming a bicycle gang with other kids in the neighborhood and rarely even encountering adults, now kids are dragged to structured…
