If Jira didn’t exist, someone would build it, because said managers have the budget and authority to spend.

If we want a different management culture, we have to work on the culture directly. Which is the entire point of agile, lean, and other movements.

As for managers buying it and imposing it on their engineers, we need to recognize that said managers are users too, and their needs matter. It’s not like there’s a good tool and a shitty tool, and the engineers and managers put in a requisition for the good tool, but the CFO plays golf with the shitty tool’s VP of Sales and they buy the shitty tool.

Managers want Jira for a reason. We may not like the reason, but that doesn’t mean they’re wrong, and it especially doesn’t mean that if we burned Jira down to the ground its replacement wouldn’t address the reasons managers want Jira.

If we believe that software can do what managers and engineers need doing without being as craptastic as Jira, we need to build it.

But we can’t ignore what managers need. We either give them something else that solves their problem, or we stop worrying about Jira and get them to approach software development in a new way.

In yogurt, most brands attributed to nestlé in fact belong to a joint venture between nestlé and lactalis. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactalis_Nestl%C3%A9_Produits_...

Among water, Carola no longer belongs to Nestlé, since 2013, it is a subsidiary of Spadel (independent belgian of Spa mineral water). Similarly, Quézac now belongs to Ogeu.

This boycott may harm companies not related with Nestlé!

Talent can only get your foot in the door I feel. You see a lot of talented people pick up a topic, do exceedingly well at the basics then just walk away. It's time, dedication and practice that take you from the clever kid destined for great things to a capable musician/crafstman/artisan/programmer.

There parallels between software and music proficiency are pretty strong in this regard. There is a big difference between a clever person who can learn quickly and an experienced programmer with niche domain knowledge earned over years. In the same way musicianship is more than being able to play an instrument.

I actually share this - I won't get BF5 until a few months after release because it'll be pushed to release to compete with CoD and be bug-ridden until a few months later.

So, I can say: "At least they fix their games after a few months".

In addition, please don't take these things personally - the company can be nice to work for and everything but in general the idea the public has are due to its actions as a company, and not the effort of the individuals. I'm sure the developers are competent.

Reading this I've grown even more appreciative of how easy ThinkPads are to repair/upgrade. Almost encouraged, given the many guides and YouTube videos available, and ultimately it's a cost saver to them.

And to all those that have moaned about the Linux desktop, I recently upgraded my ssd on my x260. End to end - circa 2.5 hours (a lot of that hands off). Fresh install of Fedora WS, with all packages and home directory restored, back to full productivity. No dicking around with drivers or playing "50 click-through install wizards".

I can't help but wonder, is that even possible on Windows or OS X?

>But when we are just starting and unknown, who is gonna sing our praises

What I've noticed is just conversing empathetically with others a la How to Win Friends and Influence People and having technical discussion is enough for others to sing my praises, from my time as intern through middle-manager. Basically, be interested in others over yourself. For more on the nuance of "interested" I'd suggest the above book.
If the story is true, show me some of these spy chips. It should not be hard to indicate the exact location and allow anyone with supermicro motherboards find them.
Then why hasn't a manufacturer done it?

I still haven't found a laptop that has a trackpad anywhere was good as a Macbook. Still waiting.

I'm still waiting for this mythical huge market of people who want to tinker and repair everything themselves. It doesn't exist. It's a vocal minority on here, and nothing more.
Are there benefits to using FP32 vs FP16? I’ve been dabbling with deep learning but not really sure how much affect higher precision is having. Though more precision is better I suppose.
I did some VHDL in school when I was doing a computer engineering degree. We came at it from underneath, as it were -- we'd done a fair number of classes on digital logic and VLSI design. So the way we wrote it felt like describing hardware (hence the name, Hardware Description Language) rather than writing software. That being said, it had a lot of affordances we didn't use, that would have made it feel a lot more like a programming language. Unlike a programming language, though, you're acutely aware of the cost. Every line costs you surface area / FPGA gates, and if your HDL is too big, it won't fit in the IC you want to program.
How to Disconnect from ‘Always On’ Work Culture
But both "Apple and Amazon are denying a report claiming spy chips from China were found in hardware they use.
According to a report by Bloomberg, tiny microchips were found on motherboards of servers assembled by the San Jose company Super Micro Computer.

An official cited anonymously by Bloomberg said the supply chain-level breach affected almost 30 companies, including Amazon Web Services and Apple.

In a statement published Thursday, Apple denied the Bloomberg report, claiming malicious chips were never uncovered.

"We are deeply disappointed that in their dealings with us, Bloomberg’s reporters have not been open to the possibility that they or their sources might be wrong or misinformed," read Apple's statement.

Amazon called the report "erroneous" in a blog post published Thursday. "At no time, past or present, have we ever found any issues relating to modified hardware or malicious chips in Super Micro motherboards in any Elemental or Amazon systems," the company said.

In a statement released Thursday, Bloomberg News said the story required more than a year of reporting and more than 100 interviews. They also said 17 individual sources confirmed the manipulated hardware."

I love quality private labels. One more is good news. Competition keeps price low and quality higher. I buy a lot of Kirkland stuff at Costco, some Great Value stuff at Walmart, and increasingly more AmazonBasics stuff on Amazon.

My rule of thumb tends to be: Always try the cheaper private label at first, and only if it's not good enough do I move on to branded stuff. With most things, the private label stuff is just as good.
This got me thinking about marketplaces and fair marketplaces.

A marketplace is just a standard set of contracts,rules, protocols between multiple groups(like buyers and sellers)

A fair marketplaces is a standard set of contracts where everyone in each group has the same set of rules, contracts, protocols.

For instance Amazon having access to other sellers data while all sellers don't, would make it not a fair marketplace.
I really dont like bragging, but I've noticed in groups where no one is bragging or talking about themselves its really boring.

I have a bunch of really smart friends who do really interesting things and when we meet up its like what are you up to? Nothing much. Nothing interesting. Later you find out that they just visited Mongolia, another is learning Russian and the other built renewable power system for a holiday house they just bought, but they're too worried about bragging to bring it up. (exaggerated) Meanwhile I (and I'm guessing they) dont like social status but kinda disappointed they don't get loved much.

Meanwhile I have other asshole friends who talk about the new expensive kitchen he got installed and its actually nice to hate on him and have a decent conversation about it.

So I'm starting to rethink my views on bragging. Maybe its a good thing.
Apple gets a lot of flack for the high margins on their products, but those high margins allow them to design and create high-cost SoCs. They also essentially have a business guarantee that all of the chips they fabricate will get purchased, at a know price and ROI.

So, on top of the vertical integration of software/hardware advantage, they have diminished risk.
"The only way to quickly do it was to somehow implement a machine learning algo and that would give us the result that we wanted. Viola!!"

I'm not sure that's a super meaningful distinction for market power. It's a different method of selling, but ultimately you're selling largely the same things. You probably wouldn't separate out "Ford has this much market share in dealerships vs online sales" most of the time, for example.
> You are better off communicating what to do with the data, rather than sharing the data.

Not if you actually want to distribute the work over several cores.

Example: Your data is partitioned into 4 segments A, B, C, and D. In step 1, node X processes A&B and node Y processes C&D; in step 2, node X processes A&D and node Y processes C&B. If A, B, C, and D are large, this is a prime example where shared memory trumps message passing in terms of performance. If you think that's a contrived case: dense matrix multiplication behaves like this.
I just want a company that respects me and my data. Likewise, I want tools that behave in predictable and understandable ways. Google does not produce these kinds of products anymore. The small change in workflow with a different tool is minimal, the gain in quality from working with companies that treat me with respect is immeasurable.
Good general advice. I can't say I have a categoric aversion, but the onus is on upstream to honestly and clearly explain the specific circumstances and reasoning for why the license by itself is insufficient for their special needs.
And compromising hardware in transit, which is basically the same thing the Chinese have done with Supermicro - just one step further upstream.

It’s a bad world, everyone is at it, nobody can be trusted blindly.
Hello, Community Advocate from GitLab here.

Regarding the documentation, have you checked out the following doc? https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/clusters/index.html#...
The problem here is a little more complex than one might think at first.

Usually when something is overvalued it means that the value it has been given is higher than what people are willing to pay, resulting in a product which has been assigned a value nobody is willing to pay. This is not always that clear cut, as some things have different values to different people. What is overvalued and probably overpriced for one person might be well within reason for someone else.

The housing market is very dependent on the location you live in so wihtout further information it's hard to say if a house is "overvalued". The price is normally closely related to the property price, so while housing might not be overvalued, property prices could very well be.

Then there are different considerations regarding the longevity of your assets (aka your house). Most things you buy are rather short lived, this is not the case for property, which can be inherited over multiple generations.

You also have to consider that the amount of land is limited (within cities) and owners/sellers are not necessarily companies trying to make a profit, so "normal" supply/demand doesn't necessarily apply in these situations and producing more (land/property) is just not doable. This also means that renting prices usually increase similarly to housing prices.

There are lots of other variables here to consider but even regarding only a few of them its already really hard to say what a house or property is "worth", so what you should much rather be asking is "what are people willing to pay/how much can they pay". If that is your question you could look at default rates and newly approved credits to determine whether people are able to pay for their house.

I haven't played any of these games either, and the kinds of "press a button in time to make stuff happen" events you describe are something I really hate in games, so I don't think I will.

That said, your description of the illusion of choice in the story... sounds like every story-based videogame ever. I've been playing games since the 90s, and I can't really think of any such games off the top of my head where your choices will lead you down a completely different path.

Commonly the game will have different ending cutscenes depending on your choices, but the main story quest always takes you to the same locations.

Deus Ex was lauded for giving you choices, but you always took the same general path through the game. Maybe you saved that character and then you meet him again for a short conversation much later - but it didn't really matter.

Planescape Torment is often described as the best story-driven RPG ever written. While it had lots of optional sidequests and offered the option to roleplay your character in loads of different ways, in the end you always took the same path through the main storyline.

These are just two examples of higly rated, character- and story-driven games that happen to be among my favorite games of all time.

It's understandable, after all creating content costs money, and content that won't be seen except by a tiny minority of players seems like a sunk cost to the developers.
FYI: "Britain’s national cyber security agency said on Friday it had no reason to doubt the assessments made by Apple and Amazon that refuted a Bloomberg story that their systems contained malicious computer chips inserted by Chinese intelligence. [...]"

It is shoddy journalism, or rather propaganda when anonymous is really a CIA/MOSSAD etc, as is the case with Bloomberg et al.
> The personal is political, especially when the person is going to recieve a lifetime appointment to a position of huge political power. Especially when there is a widespread suspicion that he will overturn Roe v Wade.

Only if you make it so. I mean, we're talking about employees putting the blame on their CEO because he supports another employees right to sit next to someone they know who is accused of a crime.

I think if when people are going after someone two steps removed who is standing up for one of the major ideals of freedom, then perhaps those people reexamine their own actions and motivations closely.

> by standing behind the person accused of harassment, he's saying to his staff "if you accuse someone of harassment, I will have their back rather than yours".

No, that's definitely not being said, as clearly outlined by him through his statement that he is doing this in support of someone that is his good friend, that he believes.

That some employees cannot seem to separate someone's actions in their private life from their professional life is unfortunate. People seem too willing to condemn behavior that they would support given a few different details. Being upset does not justify a position. In fact, I would say people being upset and using that to justify their actions and beliefs is likely what put us on this path two years ago, and that both sides are willing to do it doesn't make it better, not at all.

But that's when your company has a contract with the government, right? Why would there be anyone on Apple's side with TS/SCI clearance? Didn't Bloomberg say that Apple found the chips? How would you be able to replace + change suppliers of 7000 servers without explaining why to senior leadership?
CARISIRT on Supermicro: Yet Another BMC Vulnerability (And Some Added Extras)
No, deception has nothing to do with that.
The point is to disconnect the product from its brand and connect it to another (in-house) brand instead, practically negotiating away the brand/marketing portion of the price by committing to an attractive purchase-volume.

If I'm Pepsi and you want to white-label my product but then again still want to tell everyone it's Pepsi, you still make your sales on the back of my brand-investment, so you'll have to pay for the brand as well.

I'm not so sure, many who lived through the Great Depression never did turn meaningfully right. Here[1] are some conversations with people who lived through that time. What's amazing to me is how class conscious the people who struggled during that time retain many years later (and how little class consciousness is present in those who didn't - listen to the interview with the photographer). Of course the recession is not as stark as the depression but this struggle against poverty can leave a lasting mark. I think what's accurate isn't to say that people shift right as they get older, it's to say that people become more conservative as they become more secure. In the recent past age has correlated with that security but if that's no longer the case then I'm not sure we'll see the same shift.

Ask HN: Are there any open source alternatives to Amazon Rekognition?
> Until the second part of OP's story happens - which is the competitors die off and then Amazon jacks up the prices.

Whenever some disrupter comes into a market, you always see some people saying this "just you wait, they'll jack up the prices sky high any minute now!!" and it seems to happen rarely, if ever.

For example, there are plenty of small towns where Wal-mart was able to dominate and drive out small mom and pop retail shops. I've heard plenty of complaints about that, but I've never heard anyone say, "...and then after they drove out all the little shops, the prices went through the roof!!"
I see your *, so I assume you do know SuperMicro is a US company? And that the breaches reportedly happened at local Chinese subcontractors?

Everything you say seems to be valid for Chinese companies. Which SuperMicro... isn't.

If they want to start auditing their incoming supply from China more closely, or even shift production elsewhere, there's nothing except cost stopping them from doing so.

And the rub is that any competitor also using Chinese supply (for cost savings) is vulnerable to the same attack. SuperMicro was presumably targeted because of their size and global customers.
Heck, you can find millions of pages of highly confidential documentation in any Xerox copier junkyard--it's all standardly copied to their internal disks, which are never cleaned on junking.
