As a manager. This is an illusion. The bottleneck isn’t in writing the code. In fact, what I see over and over is overproduction leads to bottlenecks in the review queues and a complete breakdown in intentionality, planning, collaboration.
You get pressure to do because it’s easy on the surface to show output, but creating a good product is a systems problem that requires coordination and thought.
We’re seeing multiplication in output, not outcome.
If it’s so good, where are all these killer apps? It’s been years!
I agree, and maybe not on their own, but combined with other changes, maybe. Eg. Build dorms and have them stay there when in DC, owned and paid by the state.
I’d like to see draconian controls and transparency on their finances during their time serving and a few years into it.
Yeah, it’s also not an “airtight” set of beliefs. The bible is a messy collection of books distant from each other in time and goals. You can probably find a passage to justify any point.
Folks looking to use it for their own means are spoiled for choice. Have been for centuries.
100%. It’s ahistorical. The story of humanity is the story of smaller groups pooling together in larger groups for a common good.
The concept of Germany, Spain, or France is pretty new. It was a collection of small kingdoms. And before that even smaller clans. And before that etc etc. And now we start to think of them more and more as an even bigger unit: the EU.
We’re social creatures, and every meaningful improvement has happened because we work together and care for each other.
There’s always elements taking advantage of this, so it’s important not to forget that we have to fight for what we find important.
This defeatist view is a gift to those that want to take advantage of our good will. Yeah, life is hard and it sucks sometimes, but if you let that jaded view take over, you’re creating a self fulfilling prophecy.
the bible foot massage story really is one of the funniest bits in there.
his friend / treasurer of his brand account sees him getting a foot massage from Mary Maggie with all the fancy oils and says “ay Jesus, we could feed a bunch of poor people with the cost of this”. Jesus exhales and says “you’ll always have the poor, I’ll only be here for a bit, let me enjoy this”
It is! If you want to reduce exposure to this you really have to make sure mdm disallows installing it. The numbers trigger regardless of seats, and then you’re on the hook for the licenses for every employee using it.
So even if as a matter of policy you don’t use docker desktop, it’s possible engineers still do.
oh god I hope not. I was being facetious because the movie was released in 1942, maybe enough time that a spoiler warning is not needed
why does he look like the evil scientist from the adventures of elliot

Also, according to the boosters, if it gets as good as they insist it’s going to get, we wouldn’t even need to learn how to use it!
At that point I’d be more concerned about the collapse of the economy than my specific job. Why buy any service when the replicator does it

Good thing neither of those are the case in the current system!

Absolutely! It’s a pretty effective gimmick

I’m going to tell my kids the first one is Mac demarco

I experienced this feeling during new years in shibuya. It’s scary af, you can no longer move, you’re part of a human liquid. Never again

I’m having a (good) moment with qt atm (excluding kirigami), so that’s a relevant thing to point out!
I missed this! What’s the tool folks are using instead of lutris?

At work, avoiding surprise licensing fees. If you ever have over 250 employees or over 10 million revenue, you owe a subscription.
At the home, easy orchestration with systemd
This is still one of the best movie moments. And the image I send people on airdrop if they happen to have it on publicly
