Good essay! Shame he doesn’t talk about taboo. Taboo subjects could make for great essays but it takes a lot of guts to write about them. Anything from collapse of your life, work, prison or death threats may ensue. Breaking taboos move soc

You must mean clear cut cases too then. Not self defence etc.

A blameless culture needs to take into account bad actors. You might add more processes for part sovereignty for example. This is what you rely on for safety. In addition yeah also prosecute criminals. But that doesn’t stop crime. See “war

Yeah the Brit drinking culture is quite insane. Aussie has a bit of that but it is much less. I used to drink a lot more, but now I find it hard to stand. No buzz just the stupification. And of course drink is very toxic and will set back a

Effective defence would allow the guilty to go free. (although “guilty” is a jury verdict so that is impossible but I presume you mean would be found guilty had more evidence prevailed). You can’t have an advocate that draws arbitrary lines

Not indignity but inconvenience. It would be like a boss lying to a software engineer about the requirements as they are scared it will cost too much then the wrong thing is built.

Exercise too. The question is how long. Doing intense stuff needs breaks.

I did the same switch. Then went to the Chrome extension YARC https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/yet-another-rest-c... which I like for the simplicity. It does remember past queries.

Good answer. A refurb Dell desktop tower or smaller form will get ya 10-20 years service vs. the 5 tops of the laptop (excluding battery and screen for generous comparison because they may fail sooner). Also laptops just seem to do sucky st

The top answer is a very nice explanation. I don’t know Rust but I understand it.

Those are a thing but probably not as bad. You may gain seniority. The second is unavoidable. The last can be dealt with and there are levels of ethics around that.

The folly is the same as the rock star amplifier that “goes to 11” or how gig economy reviews are 5 star = acceptable or better, anything else means dreadful.’It is just a linear transform people have to do in their heads.

So you can use sin(x) for various x to tell what you are running on. Maybe even in the browser?

I would take it at a FAANG that actually compensates you for it but out here in the sticks of the rest of the world it just ain’t worth the stress and red tape crunches (like being forced to do scrum or forced to do unrealistic planning in

Quite the strawman! If you can’t say “that is too complex”, “I don’t know” or give nuanced answers then… you probably aren’t smart. That said I am moving the goalposts. I would like to see evidence that people getting hard degrees are like

Surely being able to gather information is a key point in identifying process problems. NTSB wont blame them but they might want to speak to them.

A really good blog post might do it. The bar is quite high there as of course lots of people are blogging to establish themselves as the expert in X. So nothing that gives me positioning vibes. Those curiousity driven posts are better. But

There might also be profit in using some of it for day to day expenses then putting all your income into a pension (if possible). Effectively reducing tax. Maybe you can borrow against it so you keep it invested. Talk to tax expert.

You cant test it or back test it in any statistically significant way. If you have a way to tell if they have Alpha then you don’t need them.

Coding will change but still exist. If the computer is coding for you you still need to understand what it did, review it etc. If it can automate everything to do with coding it can probably automate sales, marketing, finance and support :-
