> When you want to work with CD in a particular way.

I think that I, as the user of the project, should get to decide how I want to deploy my software. So, yes, I do want to CD things in a particular way: one that matches my developer's expectations and my business requirements.

> CD

Jenkins isn't a deployment tool. It can act like one, but this (rollback) is a classic example of how it's a build, not release, tool.

To address OP's complaint: we rebuild steps from the previous pipeline to perform a rollback, and we have all our deployment logic in a separate system which works with commit IDs, if the previous pipeline has been pushed out of the list of recent pipeline runs.

I think there's a hole in this reasoning. Because, it seems to me that "legitimate users" is being used to mean "people who are not uploading huge amounts of data" (usually phrased as 'abusing the service'). But then, by definition, imposing a reasonably large cap hurts no legitimate users.
> Most line managers value their team and will fight for them if they are unhappy

1) It's not a matter of being happy or unhappy. Just about everyone wants to earn as much as possible, the goal being to get as quickly as possible to the point where one no longer requires employment.

2) It's not possible to know how much the market values you without seeking other offers and seeing how much they'll offer you.

3) If one of your employees comes to you and says "I would like a raise" with no additional context, I can't imagine you're likely to offer them much. If they say "I need a raise or else I'm going to start looking at other jobs", I doubt you'll treat that much different from coming to you with an offer already in hand.

As an employee with a manager like you, it seems like my best best is to get an offer first, and then come to you saying "I'm really happy here, but you're not paying me market rate, and I think I would also be happy at this other company that will pay me more."

I understand Flippa, but there's one part of it that grates on me.

A person is selling a site for $200, and it makes them $50 a month. Many of these sites require little to no maintenance so why are they selling the site in the first place? Surely it's worth keeping the site going until the traffic dies out because you'll make more money that way?

I've been tempted to buy a site on Flippa before, but even though this is an extreme example I've often felt like some of the deals are too good to be true.
I have yet to see anything that actually documents well other than code itself. Comments are _always_ subject to the problem of going stale or being poorly worded. I haven't played with it much, but Clojure's spec looks like a good tool for documenting how functions should behave. That plus a description in the docstring might be the best thing out there right now.
It can be the right strategy, but you have to be prepared for them to leave. It can be a shock to some businesses to have someone leave when they are managing important responsibilities. It is just a matter of being completely informed. And if you expect them to leave within a 6-12 months you are looking for their replacement. It creates an uncomfortable situation.

It isn't the wrong call to keep someone on and counter, it is just a tricky situation.

Wait, you just said, "women are paid less because they are valued less". Sounds logical.

But the grandparent's point is a sticky one: "it would be trivial for employers to reduce their costs by only hiring women." And yet ... no employer ever does this. They hire men and women. Also logical.

Either you're not telling me everything you know, or you're wrong. Without radical argument surgery, to make what you said square with GP, we have to consider changing the parameters in some pretty distasteful ways:

* It's actually the women themselves who value their time less, and let themselves get taken advantage of in salary negotiations.

* Men are more skilled than women for some jobs and those skills are in short supply. They get hired alongside women, but command higher salaries.

I tend to think there is no gender pay gap, but only if we adjust for people's choices to take breaks from their careers in order to raise families, pursue hobbies, mental health, etc.
Well, if you are a prepper (you have prepared for the breakdown of society), and society does indeed break down, intimidating anyone coming for your supplies would probably be necessary.

Yes, I think this may mean the end of any kind of political centre in the US. The different sides will simply have entirely different coverage of the same events, and will entirely refuse to believe each other's claims. Only a small distance from the current situation. But I can't see how people would voluntarily move back from that brink.

Building a Self-Sufficient Docker Cluster
Just like enterpreneurs navigate the infinite number of potential ideas and approaches: you go for the next best thing, non-conclusive indicators.

And this is the danger too, because there can be many non-conclusive indicators that are plainly wrong or even dangerous (e.g. the anti-vaxxer movement).

But if there are no conclusively proven effective ways to solve your problem, of course you're going to try some others, right? Is that snake oil by definition?
> i don't think the Jenkins developers are interested in it either

I keep running into this: we want to extend or change Jenkins behaviour, and since it's open-source, it's possible to get up-to-speed on the codebase & make that change. But getting it into a state which matches the mindset of the project maintainers is tough! Trying to convince someone that your use-case is not only permissible but is actually a good idea over ticket comments is not what we want to spend our time on.
Imagine this scenario:

"My computer stopped working one day so I kicked it hard and it started working again! Maybe kicking computers works."

And you, as a "computer person," are like: "I can't say what happened in your specific case, but generally speaking kicking your computer will probably cause more harm than good. Maybe you caused it to restart or something or got lucky and something that was loose inside the machine got pushed into a tight fit. Or maybe it was a total coincidence. Who knows. But I'm glad it's now working for you."

That's probably what someone in the medical community thinks when they hear stuff like the above.

(And now here comes GoopTech offering to fix your computer by kicking it for $50/kick.)
Ahh yes, that is different, and worth being paranoid about if you live in one of those countries where it's an idea people in power are considering.

Well, it still kinda is - the physical drives have to live somewhere... ;-)
Not really. Business is business and personal is personal. If you look at them both the same you'll end up stuck in a job you hate for 8 years thinking you're being super loyal and that raise is just around the corner.

Spouses are loyal back, businesses are not.
I tend not to give shows second chances. There are far more good shows than I have time. If one of the few I make time for disappoints me, I quit watching in favor of trying out a new one.
It seems like a good way to drive awareness of digital watermarking in the file sharing community.
Look at Tezos - they used the success of Bitcoin (and Ethereum) against itself, by the way they funded a totally competing blockchain. You can be bullish on the future of crypto and a bear on BTC and ETH prices, if you envision a future where dozens of tier 1 blockchains compete (and interoperate).
I'd be interested in trying an online coding exercise like the one he mentioned. I've definitely fallen into the trap of thinking that my code was robust because it worked for my specific use case (and no one tried to break it). Now I feel much more skeptical that my code works at all.
Sure you can just email me vic@ewolo.fitness and I'll be happy to send you a scanned sheet.

Ah, kingdomino got an award. I got a copy last year from a friend who picked it up at Essen. It is excellent. Pretty easy to learn, plays in 15 minutes, hidden depths to strategy. Great gateway game, and not too expensive either.

My only house rules are to remove the bonus points for a full board and centered castle, and to allow someone to declare a broken board and discard a tile at any time (instead of discarding their last tile).
Big Agricola fan here, also Tzolk'in, Fresco, Puerto Rico, and Power Grid for similar depth/strategy level.

However, I've been recently trying to build out my mid-range collection, to have more stuff with appeal to a broader audience, including my 6 year old daughter. To that end, we've really enjoyed Patchwork, Broom Service, Set, and Carcassonne.

The Register has a few more details - https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/07/17/ibm_latest_mainfram...

It features the next generation of IBM's CMOS mainframe technology, with a 10-core CPU chip using 14 nm silicon-on-insulator technology, and running at 5.2GHz, claimed to be the fastest processor in the industry. Each core has hardware accelerated encryption implementing a CP Assist for Cryptographic Function (CPACF). The CPU also has 1.5 times more on-chip cache per core compared to the z13. There can be up to 32TB of memory, three times the z13 maximum, and its IO is three times faster as well.
> They can legitimately call snake-oil anything that has not been proven but is nonetheless sold.

I agree with the rest of your comment, but I think this is a very liberal application of the term "snake oil". When I see that word, I expect it to apply to obvious nonsense. Jars of water with special labels, etc. Prettily painted bracelets that help you lose weight but are actually recycled curtain hangers. Stuff like that.

But ok, we got on the same page I think. If all we disagree about is what the term "snake oil" means then I think we can agree to disagree :-) Thanks for your insights!
Cool!! Based on the Dat project (http://datproject.org). These guys might become a good alternative to IPFS, especially if they reposition themselves as a message-based system, instead of just file sharing.
Kingdomino is perfectly fine, but I felt the SdJ nominees this year were all pretty safe choices. If anything, I would've preferred Magic Maze, which seems to be the most unique of the SdJ nominees. Plus, Honshu, which also came out this year, is a much better bid-and-build-domino-cities game than Kingdomino, but I understand it's a little more complex than the average SdJ winner.

Meanwhile, Exit winning the Kennerspiel frustrates me. It's a solid design, and the escape-room-in-a-box can be quite fun, but it's hardly a gamer's game and the other nominees were incredible.

I guess my takeaway is that the SdJ is built up too much and doesn't reflect my segment of the hobby very well.

People don't like to feel like they're being exhorted. This has a high likelihood of backfiring. If you want a raise talk to your manager first. Don't come with threats to leave.
Their website seems to be down: I'm just wondering, are they downloading everything accessible through the player, or just songs marked "Download"?

Even given that they could restrict themselves to songs marked okay to download, how much of that will be DJ mixes containing copyrighted songs?

I'm just wondering because Soundcloud actually has support to specify your copyright terms, which does not default to "everyone can download this", so it's an interesting case..

The website works now, it just says "selective content"

I'm sure SC serves up a lot of content per day, but how do you think they will react by suddenly having someone download all of their 900 TB or whatever it is in one day? How much will Archiveteam be contributing to SC's downfall by suddenly causing them a huge unexpected bill?

As someone who really wants the SC content backed up properly, I nonetheless see how this raises some interesting legal issues.
No. Rationality has very little to do with it. How rational the participants are doesn't itself change the fact that there is a competitive labor market and that salary offers thus must be competitive.

If women choose to forgo higher salaries in favor of something else, that's a different issue and it doesn't immediately mean that they are being "irrational", it just means they favor different things than men do.

Well, even if it was an actual drug, e.g. penicillin, if it was sold in a bottle as something it is not, e.g. 'cancer cure', it would still be snake oil.
Debt has never been seen favorably in almost any culture - even in the US, before the 80s.

At the end, a research and analysis firm in this space says 50% leave within one year. I could not find the papers. I actually researched this a lot when put in a situation that we had to make a counter offer and there are some better papers and such out there, but I don't have it handy.

You have to go case by case and really understand what is motivating the individual. There is a very high chance the relationship is beyond salvaging. But there is also a good chance you can fix the problem. It is much better to never be in that situation to begin with (preventative maintenance). Regardless when you get to the point of making a counter offer anecdotal experience and research indicates it is about like flipping a coin. Maybe you can gain some insight via discussions and back story that make it better than flipping a coin, but the basic idea is you are in a relatively unpredictable situation at that point, no matter what.

Whereas, having constant and open communications with employees, discussing comp and making sure all issues stay little issues prevents these situations. Eventually someone may leave, but in my experience you can almost always remove the chance they come to you with a competitive offer. They will know where they stand with the business and be getting a fair wage or they will know it is time to move on. It is a much better relationship than an employee feeling they have no recourse but to drop a bomb on your organization.

That said, it is understandable how this happens with "line managers". e.g. middle managers. Individuals not empowered by corporate structure to do the right thing. But in orgs of less than 100 people this should never be happening.

https://www.vox.com/2016/8/1/12108126/gender-wage-gap-explai...

Long, but worth a read. Here's a section from the middle of it:

> Right now, the burden of child rearing disproportionately falls on women

> Some of this could be by choice — but there are also cultural forces outside of a woman’s control at play.

> Consider a study of lawyers’ salaries from Mary Noonan at the University of Iowa. She found that men see their salaries decrease more than women when they switch to a part-time schedule for a year.

> "It seems that men in the legal profession who take on non-traditional gender roles (i.e., taking responsibility for child care) pay a high price for that behavior," Noonan and her study co-authors write.

> If the workplace penalizes men more than women for taking breaks from work, then it could be the wiser financial decision for a mother to take on more caregiving activities — the decision that society overwhelmingly expects.

> And even before having children, just the act of becoming pregnant will mean more doctor appointments and actually delivering a baby — all things harder to do in jobs with rigid schedules.

> There are some arguments that women have lower salaries because they don’t negotiate salaries as well or aren’t as naturally competitive

> Studies do find that women negotiate their salaries less frequently than men — but also that they may choose to do so with good reason. One series of experiments found that managers were less interested to work with women who asked for higher salaries in job negotiations.

> The data tells us that this can’t be the entire story. It can't explain why the wage gap is so much bigger for those with kids than those without. One 2015 study found that childless, unmarried women earn 96 cents for every dollar a man earns. Remember that study we started with, the one about the MBA graduates? It showed that women with kids had a wage gap twice as large as women without.

> "There are really three groups: men, women with children, and women without children," says Bertrand, who worked on that research with Goldin. "Things like negotiating skill might matter on the margin, but it is not the core issue."

> If the problem were that women aren't competitive, it couldn't address why the wage gap is smallest when women are youngest. It's not as if women would lose their negotiating skills over time.
It's a terrible analogy. A better analogy is you're a prostitute and you tell your client that you looked around and the going rate for this type of work is more than he's been paying you, so you're gonna go fuck other guys for money.

You don't fire your girlfriend in tough times, but your boss will fire you if he had to. It's a stricylty pay to play relationship.
I was thinking the same. An attractive offer that leads to a change of employer is usually rounded off with a sallary boost.
For me, probably not. My parents live a few hours from me. When I drive, I have to stop and get gas. Nine times out of ten, I go in and get a soda and something to snack on for the remainder of the trip.

Also - there are times that I'm craving a certain flavor of food or drink. I'll just walk across the street to my CVS and get it.

And finally, I was traveling recently by plane. I didn't have travel sizes of toiletries. Walked across the street and got them. It was a weekend trip. Didn't want to check luggage.

We were told that with HTML5 it would have been soon possible to use a browser to do almost anything (BTW 90% or maybe 95% of which was already doable before) and even the greengrocer around the corner (not really, just an hyperbole) wants me to install an app (which needs to come into two flavours/platforms, IOS and Android).

And now we have (just as we had before) an endless number of half-broken sites (in the sense that there are no two browsers rendering them exactly the same and the usual patches related to identify a specific browser and serving slightly different content are still everywhere) and ON TOP of that an endless number of very "vertical" or "strictly branded" apps.
