The Honest Marketer Manifesto
That's pretty much saying "I put my personal food taste before the safety of the future generations.". Don't get me wrong, you're free to have this opinion but it's probably a good thing to frame it like that to fully understand the choice.

There's "climate is changing" and massive population migration, uninhabitable areas, unreliable food and water supply, sea level threatening entire cities and probably more.

The fact that "literally everything we do" impact the environment isn't a valid argument. It does seem daunting, but by looking at each cause individually and acting on it, it looks less discouraging.

I'm far from perfect, I'm not even vegan and I still fly quite a bit, I just came to understand I had to make progressive changes to my behaviour or the human existence we currently have is severely threatened,
Word, I didn't see that last year.

So yes, even just refueling is something the MSPs demand action over.

Not sure why that's worthy of "come on" like it invalidates my point.
Then why did they bother to update their webpage when they made this loan? On the date they made this loan they updated their page to say that it was no longer fully backed by cash. If they were in the business of lying, they'd have no reason to have done that - nobody knew about the loan at that time.
AMD to launch new 7nm Navi GPU, Rome CPU in 3rd quarter
Is it fair to ask at this point if Elon Musk is going crazy? His decisions of late seem unwise at best, irrational at worst. Maybe he should just concentrate on producing Model 3's and then the Model Y?

Or what would be really cool would if Tesla could produce multiple car models... at the same time!
By humans? Do circles not exist without humans to point them out?
I realize you're joking, but this is actually kind of bothersome to me.

Most of us give overly optimistic delivery dates without intending to. Over time we learn that we have this habit, so we pad in some time we think is unnecessary...and still give overly optimistic delivery dates without intending to.

If you add someone INTENDING to give such poor estimates, the problem moves from the "expected and occasionally problematic but still joke-able" to the "just plain lies" category.
Same with gdpr, it was on the rolls since 2016(?)
Memcached – The Volatile Benefit of Persistent Memory
I believe the Olympics every four years are more important for humanity than the existence of NASA. I also think we could be doing the Olympics for cheaper than ~$20b every four years.

We're not leaving this planet for a long time yet. Even if we do, it's not desirable to abandon Earth, it's vastly superior to all other practical options we have. We're going to have to continue to try to co-exist and avoid any further world wars. $4b or $5b per year for a large gathering of the sort the Olympics represents, is dirt cheap if it lends even a tiny boost to global peace between nations.

Keeping in mind this isn't actually an either or situation. It's obviously not either NASA's budget, or putting on the Olympics at a $20b cost. We - humanity - can in fact afford to do both.

I'd vote for reducing NASA's annual budget by 19% (~$4b per year) to pay for the Olympics, if that was the only option. That's a very easy decision.

It's one of the few things that most of humanity does together. Over a billion people watch some part of the Olympics globally. It's a modest, important pillar of peaceful co-existence between nations and peoples broadly. We shoud do more things together in that spirit. Maintaining peace between the 195 nations is more important than NASA's continued operation, by several orders of magnitude.

For another example, the UN is also more important than NASA (the UN has a core budget comparable to an annualized cost of the Olympics). I'm not much of a fan of the UN, and I still recognize that it serves an important purpose of promoting cooperation and discussion between nations and would be almost entirely impossible to replace today.

Competitive sport is critically important to humanity and arguably always has been in some form or another. Sometimes people that don't love sport generally, entirely fail to understand what it accomplishes and how important it is.

If NASA goes away (and yes, it would obviously be a huge loss), a dozen other countries will continue with various space efforts. How many things do that many nations cooperate together on in an overwhelmingly positive spirit other than the Olympics?
As long as a human being provides a service and another human being wishes to consume it, there will be haggling. You just might not see it happening when a third party does it for you.
People say this, but both of the malls I've been to in the past few years (one in Bellevue, WA and one in Chandler, AZ) have been completely packed almost every time. Is it really still true that malls are going away?

> In practice this is almost never because of "a monorepo"

I think you mean in the practice you've seen. I've seen some practice too, and it seems much more prevalent in monorepos. Yeah, still a small sample, correlation does not equal causation, yadda yadda, but I still think it's because monorepos make it so damn easy to reach out and add a huge tree of dependencies without having to think about it. My whole point is that it's possible to do the right thing, but requires more discipline.

Let me clarify that -- there are people who are using Scrum to do agile. Scrum is not _against_ agile. But if you are doing two-week sprints because management is chasing the latest fad, without empowering the team, you're not agile, you're just in a Scrum cargo cult.

Occupy Wall Street was seen as a failure but helped transform the American left
> LA has hosted the Olympics several times

One time in 1932 (as if that matters at all today) and another time in 1984. Just security wise 1984 is vastly different than today. As are all sorts of employment issues and things that are done differently today than in the 1980's. I owned a company in the 80's and the things that you could 'get away with' (for lack of a better way to put it) have no resemblance to a company today. Sure tech has greatly advanced but it's an entirely different 'plan with zero failure' than it was back then (and honestly 1930's does not even count back then people dying in construction was a cost of doing business/construction).

There's more to it than feature size. Other companies have more general-purpose chips. Tesla basically built an ASIC for self-driving.
It’s not quite as bad as it might appear. A lot of the gauges are engine instruments repeated 4 times.

A lot of pilots would love to fly the old “steam gauge” versions of big planes like the 747.
Considering the huge push from Valve to improve gaming on linux, which includes improving Wine etc... The fact that Google's new platform is entirely Linux backed, and AFAIK Sony's next gen is probably Linux as well. It is inevitable that Linux will become a huge platform for gaming.
In your engineering requirements you have a hard requirement for ruby and rails experience. As a senior engineer with 15+ years experience dealing with full stack from front end to writing Linux kernel drivers, but having not used ruby or rails, what level of expertise would be required to be considered at Gitlab? I use Gitlab professionally and have self hosted it for years now for my personal projects, love your company structure and culture. Professionally it’s quite difficult to acquire ruby experience from a place not already using ruby anywhere.
Your threat exposure is not just your network. It's all of your customers and all of your vendors as well.

Recall that the Target POS hack back in 2014 happened because someone hacked the largest refrigeration contractor in western Pennsylvania, then bounced from there onto the Target Partners Online portal with legitimate credentials, and then from there in unspecified ways got onto the POS system. Obviously going from TPO to POS is a failure of Target's network security, but their network perimeter was much larger than just Target computers.
Tact.AI | Bangalore, India & Sunnyvale, CA | Full-time | Onsite

At Tact (https://tact.ai), we're building the next generation of AI-driven enterprise sales SAAS. Tact.AI is the world’s first mobile sales productivity suite. Our device-native, conversational platform is used by Fortune 500 companies to transform the daily sales experience in the field and maximize the value of their CRM investments. Tact.AI brings together state of the art conversational AI built on a platform with a razor sharp focus on scalability and extensibility, tied together by a UX-first approach.

The India Centre of Tact.AI (which I’m an early engineer at) was set up in July 2018, with a focus on bringing together engineering talent to take Tact.AI to the next level, in terms of features, capabilities and scale, while building up on the culture of inclusion that we have always prided itself upon.

We are funded by Accel, Redpoint, Comcast, Amazon, Salesforce, Upfront & Microsoft Ventures (and have been covered by TechCrunch, Forbes, VentureBeat, you-name-it).

We’re always on the lookout for great engineers (at the moment we're actively looking for NLP/AI Engineers and Backend/Platform Engineers, while passively talking to engineers interested in what we're building who may not fit these roles directly) as we scale up the India centre, but same roles are also welcome in Sunnyvale. We had quite a bit of success with the Who's Hiring in the past, so here we go again!

I would disagree on "having enough infrastructure", after moving to SoCal a few years back. LAX is a complete nightmare. One can easily spend 20-30 mins trying to drive from the airport entrance to the terminal. The horseshoe design cannot handle capacity.
