You could always go to the office by yourself (or a coworking spot, or really anywhere) if the point is just changing your environment and you don’t need to bug others. Everyone gets to be happy and productive, no mandatory RTO needed.

Typically you’d get that sort of thing at a quarterly report if it was actually material to the performance of the company and they had actual data. Otherwise it’s just a normal thing as far as I know to support an argument with data if you

If they checked the numbers and it showed that they’d be shouting from the rooftops, not trying to prevent anyone from discussing it.

The vape pen is the one object that contains within it the trajectories and tensions that defines the modern world, really? Even if you're trying to illustrate an overall point about how irredeemably evil contemporary capitalism is, su

I think there is a sweet spot where if you're junior on the cusp of intermediate it can help you because you know enough to reject the nonsense, but it can point you in the right direction. Similar to if you need to implement a small f

Because the people who buy them don’t think it’s terrible, or at least not enough of a problem to get them to not buy them. And anyway it’s subjective, it’s a form with tropes and some people just love a game (or movie, or tv show) that del

I’d love a book like Founding Sales, which was excellent and taught me as a developer how to sell, but focused on marketing instead. And maybe product-led growth rather than a sales cycle.

I finally tried it and as a new member literally every recommended post was US culture wars stuff. Is that the normal experience, or am I getting some kind of bias based on who I received an invite from?

It’s a combination of cargo culting (nobody ever got fired for using Scrum!) and consultants who use it as a form of leverage to extract billable hours from their clients.

I didn’t push back or complain, but I don’t really get the victory they think they achieved there. Definitely nothing that helped an actual living person improve their life - donating the equivalent in salary spent working on the change to

I think the idea was that capitalism was at fault, so we should go back to whatever variant of the system Boeing operated under when there were less failures. Or else I’m not sure why their conclusion would be that the fix would be to reel

I could sort of see that, though I think authoritarian does a fine job of saying the same thing. But to say the communist party of the Soviet Union wasn't communist, that they used the word communism to make communism/themselves l

Your position is the state communist party of the Soviet Union wasn't communist, they were fascist, but they called themselves communist to make communism look bad? These guys? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideolog

All anyone who espouses communism can ever seem to reliably produce is a never-ending dictatorship of the proletariat (which always seems to be run by people who strangely look like the bourgeoisie) and I don't think that should count

I think others are just saying it's possible even without the side by side, but no harm in including it for those who can't see it.

Isn't the main point of ethical AI regulations to help prevent any competitors without deep pockets from appearing? In that sense it's likely working as designed.

Maybe it's just me but wiring electronics into the brains of animals to remote control them seems morally wrong, even if it's "for a good cause."

The upvoting system there seems to tune everything to become an "average redditor", who I find I don't really have a lot in common with. Even niche subs seem to suffer from it.
