How is there absolutely no further comment about that in their RCA? That seems like a pretty major thing...

That’s never been my observation. Tech people are some of the most arrogant people I’ve encountered, often asserting things outside of their domain. The delusion that being right in one area makes them right in other areas is real. It’s t

This sentiment is so incomplete as to be utterly useless outside of a very narrow scope. Good engineers are right a lot very specifically within their technical competency. Simply saying "good engineers are right a lot" has pret

You're an ace at reading comprehension, friend. What part of 'if there's fraud it should be prosecuted' was missed by you? My interpretation of OP's comments was as a call to sympathy. I'm saying I have very li

If there's fraud, then prosecute it legally. But I am in no way obligated to feel any sympathy to investors getting fleeced. It's their responsibility to do their own due diligence, and if they're getting taken in for, I am h

Hard to believe his company was okay with paying for all of this, but neat! I’m jealous.

Not just networking issues, there are plenty of reports with external drives having problems as well.

He’s absolutely correct about the ridiculous complexity of cloud tooling. The number of services, features, knobs, etc., available in AWS is borderline comical. I’m skeptical that half of the products they have really fill a gap and solve p

You can’t be that naive, can you? It’s obviously not the Tweet they’re worried about. They think the Tweet is indication that he supports Hamas enough to aid or promote them secretly. “If this guy is this outspoken publicly for his support

Good lord, did that ever strike me as pretentious and cliche.

…right. Don’t blame the manufacturer for making shitty drives, blame tech review sites for testing those drives with the tools available and reporting the results of those tests. This is some 4D level victim blaming shit. I’m almost impress

I see the logic here, but I’m highly skeptical about how valid such a tool would be. If a researcher comes out and says, “Surveys show that people want X, and they do not like Y,” and then others ask the researcher if they surveyed people,

It’s kinda like email. You wouldn’t create an account with Google and expect that login to work anywhere else, would you? But your Gmail email address can send and receive to anyone else from any provider. As far as which instance to join,

I was using Kagi, and while I paid for them for a good while, I switched to DDG because I just can’t afford to subscribe to so many things. It’s money well spent and I agree with and support their philosophy, but man, all these monthly thin

No, it really doesn’t. If they paid their mods, it might be a different conversation. No one on Reddit asked investors to come over and invest. They did so because they thought they could get a return. Well, that’s the risk of being an inve
