Bahahaha, no, that's exactly the problem doctors have. "House", for all its theatrics, does get a few things right. People are bad when it comes to their health, which is compounded by medical/physiological ignorance. You'd be surprised what people know, what they're willing to tolerate and rationalize, what they're willing to discount, what they're willing to convince themselves of. A common pattern in tech and medicine (and all things really) is for someone to map a problem onto some crude misunderstanding and then state the problem not in the form of a problem but in the form of an unimplemented solution they've thought up.

A classic example: oh, I feel sick, I'm going to go to the doctor and demand antibiotics because antibiotics can fix people when they're sick. Why are the people sick? Maybe they have the flu or norovirus or rotavirus or TB, and a normal course of antibiotics is not going to help any of that. And that's a mild example, doctors have to put up with much, much worse on a regular basis. More so when you consider that people don't want to tell the truth, even to their doctor, about something potentially embarrassing (unprotected sex, drug use, bad diet, what-have-you).

Calling airline vouchers 'worthless to most people' is pretty stupid. The vast majority of the population would love to travel more and is constrained mainly by their budget. The proof of this is how Delta never seems to have problems and they constantly offer Delta dollars.
I think that's kind of the core of the issue. When faced with a problem, in general, it can produce a kind of knee-jerk/panicked reaction.

To come up with a good question requires some level-headed thinking. Give too little information and it's hard to get help. Give too much, and you're either leading support down the wrong path or overwhelming them with useless data (which, somehow, annoys me when people do it to me, which doesn't help).

But because our mind is in agitation/panic mode, we just randomly try stuff, including thoughtless cries for help.

What I find interesting is that I'm just as susceptible to this when it comes to issues with my own work. I've been doing this for quite a while now, and yet I still regularly either thoughtlessly play whack-a-mole with a bug, or alternatively go down some obscure rabbit-hole of searching for answers. Very often in both cases the problem would've been easily solved with a clear head and a methodic approach (no matter which approach, really).

Hell, that's the whole reason 'rubber duck debugging' is a thing and so effective!

I'd say all this applies equally to things like conflicts or relationship issues. So many problems I've had over the years with people just melted away once both parties bothered to stop and think about how they communicate, or even just deciding what the actual problem is. But of course that's the last thing you do in a state of agitation.

I'm more of the opinion that if the existing customers were concerned enough, they could have found a better solution. Forming a consortium doesn't seem too far off.

> 30 people team

If it's a product team, you can easily have a company with 4-5 teams (design, development, marketing/sales, support, content) so it's not to uncommon to have a team grow to that size. And this size is still manageable, if they are not all doing the same.

For me 30 is the max, I prefer it smaller, too.

> 3 person office

For me that's the ideal tag team: a junior, a medior and a senior working hand in hand is great. In general I find my to be the most agile in teams of three. 3 opinions are a choice, and you can quickly find input if you don't have to stand up to move.

If I'm in the office I want to use that opportunity to be in close contact.

I've read other market analyses that say basically the same thing - there's no money to be made in being a 'good brand', you'll do much better chasing either high-end market or competing on cost. That's why companies like Gap & Macy's are suffering, whereas each of Louis Vuitton / Burberry and H&M / TJ Maxx have been expanding like crazy.

I think it's worth mentioning that Atlassian does care, which should show in this new version and the time and effort we have put in to make SourceTree faster and more reliable.

One of our goals over the past couple of years was to simplify SourceTree and make it easier for developers to get started with Git. Admittedly we did not always hit the right balance, but you can be sure we care and listen.

We didn't remove the negative comments from our blog, we removed all comments from our blog to minimise the number of channels on which people engage in discussions. Sorry if it created a perception that we don't care, it's quite the opposite.

> My last few experiences on Southwest have been a borderline sneer

I've had the complete opposite experience. I used to frequently fly southwest between Denver and PDX, and the flight crew were chill AF. You can almost guarantee a free drink or two on a southwest flight if you ask nicely -- I can't say the same about any other domestic American airline.

Exactly. They certaintly didn't fund the company out of interest of the Czech employees. Somebody ran the numbers and thought it could be a profitable investment.

Apple is doing stuff that's not too different: using their large cash to lend money (with lower interest than a bank) to Chinese manufacturer, so they can build the factory and hire the labor to manufacture the Apple products. And Apple cashes in with interests, with cheaper products and exclusivity deals for some time. It's a win-win-win for them.

Kube is actually fantastic for on-prem/dedicated/colo. I still wind up needing to manage my _non_ Kube stuff - and fall back to Ansible + systemd for the data layer for example.

Additionally, one big complexity re: Kube on dedicated is dealing with custom hardware. Kube and Docker really require modern and specialized kernels - This actually applies to AWS as well; the current Kube AMI for AWS doesn't install the `linux-aws` kernel for example, so you have no access to the ENA driver or the ixgbefv driver, and the t* and i3 instance performance is awful (the most common and the most vital machines respectively). There is a PR for that open somewhere and I'm sure it will be fixed soon, but you see my point.

After the hardware/kernel build (which you'll need to manage outside of Kube, so you'll probably choose something like Ansible), you'll probably want auth management at the host level (assuming you run on-prem), which you'll most likely fall back to Ansible for again.

I should probably also admit somewhere in this thread I actually use and prefer Chef :)
One sad thing that this article (I think inadvertently) illuminates is how hypersensitive Americans are about mundane parts of life like using the bathroom.

Markus' office design works over here in Europe because [I'm fairly certain] his crowd invests heavily in a healthy social culture at work, as opposed to a nervously litigious (i.e. immediately defer to HR) culture as is so common in the US.

Personally, I think Markus' office design is excellent. What I would change however, is the television setup. I've been 100% remote for most of my career, so I'm always the guy on the television. I would much prefer to be on everyone's screens individually like a little StarCraft briefing room.

Some benefits:

- sound quality is better

- less chance of audio feedback

- visual cues (like when someone wants to interject) are easier to pick up on

- screen sharing is usually easier

- difference in latency is less pronounced
Yes, I'll update the design and remove the stalls.
> Do think it's possible to write a C compiler that checks for use after free, double free, buffer overflows, index out-of-bound issues, etc.?

No, due to the way the language semantics works.

There are static analyzers that do something like that, MISRA-C, High Integrity C, Frama-C, but you are literally using C with Ada semantics at that point, thus it is almost like another language.
An investor can get value from a company in other ways than net profit. For instance share buybacks, dividends, mergers and acquisitions, companies can pay back capital. P/E ratio is just one very simple number which is not applicable to all situations. For example REITs have often very high P/E because most of their profit is distributed as dividends. Using P/E to try to value Amazon is in my opinion misguided.
I know, but in 2015 or so.

Also, Softbank acquired ARM as an investment and it is already paying off.

There's probably far more reasonable cases of temporaries being immediately destructed than you'd expect.

One that springs to mind is gtest. It defines a bunch of macros like ASSERT_TRUE that return a temporary object that has operator<< overloads to let you add additional information to the assertion failure. For example:

ASSERT_NE(-1, open("/foo", O_RDONLY)) << "failed to open file: " << strerror(errno);

It's perfectly legitimate to just go ASSERT_TRUE(1 != 2), though.

XCeption is not compared because XCeption doesn't have any results on CIFAR, and this was meant to be a fast inference model, which XCeption is not.

MobileNets came out after this, and I haven't updated it in the meantime.

I used Keras but there are some internal tools, namely a data loader, a visualization tool, a replication environment and an optimizer that I'm not allowed to share externally.

I hate the air travel experience as much as the next guy, but for the life of me I can't understand the derangement that seems to take hold of people when they start talking about. All else held equal, reducing airline costs (for example, by increasing utilization as with overbooked flights) brings prices down. It reminds me of when everyone I knew started complaining about airlines charging for luggage. When I'd ask them "I never fly with luggage, why should I bear the cost (fuel, opportunity cost, etc) of you packing too much", the most I got was some sputtering about how they didn't see why prices would be affected, even from people who I know knew much better.

Don't confuse your economic illiteracy with other people's support of objectivism. The perspective you're describing isn't even particularly libertarian, let alone Objectivist (and no, I'm not personally a fan of either of those philosophies).
Parts are completely untrue.
The JVM has the advantage to selectively jit-compile hot or small functions, whilst Rust has to compile all at once.
Rust binaries are thus big, whilst you don't ship JVM binaries, you ship small bytecode.

Go has the advantage of memory safety (via GC), plus better concurrency safety, which is lacking in Rust.
There are concurrency safe languages, but not mentioned in this thread.
Yeah man, I could setup a quorum of consul boxes, integrate consul's api into my application, figure out how to manage changes in that system, and then do as you say -- make a change management system to apply deltas on deploy.

Let me follow up with our legal team to see why that's in there. Sometimes there is a good "legal" reason for these terms that are not quite obvious to the rest of us.

To the earlier comment, we have gotten a lot of feedback in regards to the sign-up to Atlassian Account. The fact is that you always required a license, so you had to sign-up anyway. But we took the license away and streamlined the sign-up into the product (yes, there are issues with people behind firewalls that we will have to address).

Personally, I don't think requiring an account is asking too much for a free product and down the road it will help us to provide a more seamless integration for people who use other Atlassian tools as well.

It's not belittling engineering efforts if one states that rewarding a non-production research project with 120 million would be adequate in a lot of cases.

I hope you do realize that a good GC is usually faster then refcounting, and comparing it to slow GC's does not prove anything.

For fairness you need to compare Rust to D or Pony or SBCL, which are also close to C++ (even faster), plus added concurrency safety or memory safety, which can be circumvented in Rust.
Modula-3 is a systems programming language with GC and you can control precisely where the data goes.

There are lots of other examples.

True, you can certainly deadlock in Rust or do other logic mistakes. What I was trying to get at is you cannot access data protected by a lock without holding the lock, and you cannot leak any references to that data past the unlock either, so you cannot stray into undefined behavior by accessing the same data from multiple threads without appropriate locking/synchronization (like you can do oh so easily in C). At least not without an `unsafe` block.

You know all this, of course. I'm just commenting for others' sake.
Nice designs - I like them and would certainly consider some of those ideas in any future office fitout of mine.

However, I am unsure about those walls just inside the doorways that act as a buffer. Why not just have a door (with a glass window, the wall with the door doesn't already have a window)?

That way, the team working in the room can simply close the door when they do not want to be disturbed, or open it when they don't mind visitors. The window still lets others look in to peek at what they are doing, and the non window space on the door can still be used to put up signs, posters etc. as they would on the wall section.
