> Thought experiment: If you see problems with many customers, why don't you fund yourself or someone else to do the work? It would obviously save you time and energy dealing with each of the companies, and you could use that as a way to officially associate your company with the project. This is a similar calculation that happens with every one of your customers and every other company.

To be really blunt: We are basically busy 100% of the time and it would not economically make sense for us to work for free on major issues. If you look at my Apache history (committer on various projects, contributor to more) you'll see that we DO contribute a lot. But it's mostly minor stuff that can be done within a day or so.
For major stuff we just don't have the resources. We could add encryption to Kafka at our own expense and it'd take a couple of weeks of development time but we wouldn't have any immediate benefit from it. Companies like Cloudera or Amazon would benefit though.

This is how I see it at least but this is very much a plea for ideas. Maybe I'm just set in my ways.

> If you want a model that works, build your own open source projects or paid components around Apache Big Data. It's in your company name anyway .. open core, and it's a model employed by many companies like Sidekiq

Yep, that "just" requires us to have a good idea, plus the free cycles (basically investing money) plus we'd now need to learn how sales work etc. and to be honest...we're not good at that. We're really really good at the stuff we do now though. It's hard to change your own ways ;-)

I really don't belive the parent meant it like that. He said "like", which means similar, and to many people it is.

Losing a cousin is different to losing a father, which is different to losing a grandfather. And all that is completely different to losing a child, right? And everyone responds differently.

So you took offense because you decided he was comparing dogs with mothers. Certainly he was not; and that was not the point, after all.
Many of the downsides to this from the comments I've seen so far seem to be fixable with a new UI/UX for email clients.

Like if thunderbird had a "my lists" view - which put extended family in one area, close friends in another, work associates in another.. and the viewing of messages inlined pics nicely and did an infinite scroll kind of thing, basically creating a timeline/feed...

If someone could get ssl and pgp or similar in the mix, this could stick. Just maybe.

Actually I am sure there are lots of family groups that have things to send to each other that they don't want thousands of other people to access, and friends groups as well - so this could be federated snapchat kind of fb replacement with some UI tweaks, an app and a web portal.

NOw I wonder if email, can be secured and connected to mastadon, riot.im and similar to expand the options for viewing, as well as replying.

I think this is where the key incentive misalignment is. These companies are rent-seeking, meaning they have a strong incentive to lower marginal costs. Vetting has to be the largest component of that so it's likely to be cut (or just dropped entirely). But the vetting is the entire point of the exercise, so what you end up with is a company that pretends it vets people but (I suspect) doesn't really. So the profit margin is bolstered by false advertising.

>we just have a totally different set of moral axioms and are fundamentally incapable of seeing the world in the same way.

yes, definitely. I think what you're doing - dismissing the pain of others - is cruel and completely lacks empathy. I'm sorry that life treated you in such a cruel way, yet it doesn't excuse your emotional cruelty toward others. Note: i did lost members of immediate and extended family, including my father and our cat, to cancer, so i know the pain.

Just step back and think what you're doing here - people from the original post are heartbroken by the tragic loss of their dog, and the commenters express their condolences and empathy toward the grieving family ... and here you rush in with your pain and start shouting that their pain is incomparable to yours. I only hope that your actions here make at least your pain easier even if just a bit, otherwise it is just senseless.

I'm not entirely sure that the third item is correct. Doesn't that risks you having to repeat that whenever there's an accident?

Of course a dog walking company shouldn't have that many incidents, but if a number of them hit you together you may have a financial problem.

Also, I think that companies are very wary of claiming responsibility because of legal battles. Once they behave like it's their fault, customers can sue them for a large sum.

I'm just challenging a bit whether this is the best way to go about this, although in my own opinion, all three points are correct: You messed up. It happens. But now it's up to you to try to make it better.

Eh - no, that loosing a dog hits like family, is a very ameri-european idea. Everywhere else its just a dog.
The grief you felt when you lost your mother may or may not compare to the grief I felt when I lost my mother. So how dare you say you know "what it is like" - you have no idea.

My point is that grief is subjective - people spiral into depression over losing pets, while their parents can die without them batting an eye. Teenagers, with all the out of wack hormones can feel the same way over losing a girl/boyfriend.

When people say "I know what it is like because I lose my dog of 10 years when I was 13", they're telling you that they too have felt great despair, grief and sorrow. They know the feeling deep in their heart and they're expression sympathy. Instead being offended and being angry, let the sympathy help you.

Seeking iOS Developer for Innovative Short-Term Project (AR/VR) (Contract Position - SF)

Are you a dev with experience in iOS, an interest in Augmented Reality, and a passion for crushing code?

If so, we’d love to hear from you. We're building an innovative AR app and we need a dev for a short-term contract position (one or two weeks) to support us in prototyping.

Please send your GitHub and/or portfolio to theoolesen@gmail.com. If you have prior experience developing Augmented Reality apps in iOS, that’s a major plus, but we're happy to speak to great developers either way.

Compensation is competitive. Open to longer term arrangements if we fit well.
Yes, so be there to be the one to get promoted instead of being a front line grunt. Take the responsibility to change that situation for you. Just making up excuses and believe there is little room will just make you instantly lose.

Netflix has about as many original great shows as I remember HBO having 10-15 years ago: two to three a year. They just produce A LOT of stuff, and for people with a habit to consume TV four times a week, it runs out.

They have the advantage of being able to use consumer viewing patterns to optimize their new shows, but then the seams are too often visible. Often the shows with better plots suffer from bad acting too. The best of their shows are the ones they seem to have bought as an entire proposition, like "1983" and "Suburra".

> killing an animal immediatly for food.

That's often not the case. For instance, male chicks are often killed and discarded solely for not being able to lay eggs, and various other animals are unnecessarily raised in inhumane (meaning "less than human" here) conditions until they are killed, not always for food.
For example, jemalloc 3.x reduces memory usage of CRuby by ~50% and increases throughput by ~10%. It also makes an enormous difference with KV stores like Redis so it's compiled in by default.

My understanding of this is different. Streaming services are at the mercy of the prices determined by those who own the content.

If they make lots of money, up go the licence fees.

The decision to create their own content seems like an inevitable consequence of that, and acts as a deflationary force on prices as licenced content has to compete for airtime with content commissioned by the streaming service.

Interesting. Do you ever test your hypotheses? Here is some evidence regarding your "most" claim. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog...
For claiming to be high-end brands, the amount of Gucci, Swarovski, Prada et al shops really cheapen them as a brand.

I've seen similar stuff in vacation destinations in Turkey and Greece; poorly developed areas next to a road (think just bare rock and shrubs) with a super fancy looking fur coat shop. Fur coat shops, in 35+ degree C weather. I want to believe they get the odd rich Russian coming over from time to time, but TBH they're probably money laundering fronts.
Indeed, probably the biggest advantage that our societies have to the rich elite of repressive countries is the justice and governance system.

The problem with being rich in one of those oppresive regimes is that you can get rich. But staying rich is much harder, because the moment you fall out of favor you will be disowned. This can change simply through a new clan taking over power and kicking out the old clan. In the capitalist west, this is much different.

I personally think the best place is where the intellectual elite chooses to live. E.g. in the early medieval ages, the church harassed a bunch of intellectuals for their "heathen" ideology (greek philosophy, sciences, etc). So they all moved to the middle east, causing a great period of prosperity. Socialism, similar thing here. Russia had so many great minds. Scientists, authors, poets. But many of them went to the west and are still doing it. Same for germany btw, here eastern Germany was a big hub of culture, e.g. Leipzig was renown for its books, but socialists harassed and hated every intellectual (even more than they harassed the general population), so many of them fled to the west, so many in fact that they had to build a wall to keep them in. The western part of germany greatly profited from this brain drain.

It's not dangerous to democracy if these autocrat regimes build luxury condos that nobody lives in. It's dangerous when they build luxury condos and the elite choses to live there. In our world which is so much dependent on science and engineering, they chose which country, which region inside a country, prospers and which doesn't, simply by chosing where they live.
