> "managers cannot disagree with each other in front of other employees, a manager cannot criticize management actions/decisions."

This seems to be the crux of your problem, and it is a thorny one. You can directly criticize leadership decisions, if you are OK with losing your job. Even for people who report to you, the guidance is: Praise in public, reprimand in private. It's very easy to humiliate someone when you intend to educate, especially if you do it publicly. It never feels good to be attacked and it's easy to take criticism as an attack.

What you can and should do is provide context to your team. Eg: we decided to do this because we care more about money than privacy (obviously phrase this better). It can be pretty powerful to ask other leaders to provide context for their decisions.

As far as communication styles: you must have a core of common goals and mutual respect. Look up Nonviolent communication and Crucial Conversations. You don't need to follow the whole format like it's a prayer or incantation, but take the good parts and use them. Don't expect the other side to follow the format.
Wait until a webasm thread comes around again and you'll see a real rabbit hole of extreme conflation, false claims, bad faith arguments and willful ignoring of facts and evidence.
It's not even 100% clear that all of them are police forces. I could be out there larp-ing and blend right in.
I'm not an expert, but there are variants of LTE and 5G (LTE-U and 5G NR-U) that support operating in the unlicensed 5Ghz band.

That said, I'm not sure a commercial handset would connect to anything in that range. You could probably get an SDR-based UE (UE is telecom-speak for "thing that connects to a cell network") to work.
> managers cannot disagree with each other in front of other employee

This is not necessarily a terrible policy, as long as it's explicit and it's also explicit that the correct and expected course of action is to have a private sidebar, and that disagreements up the chain of responsibility are also expected and valued (both explicitly stated and via followthrough in taking action on the dissenting opinion when it's justified).
The police don't care about driving more people to protest, and they actually benefit from increased mayhem. The police care about demonstrating their power to show they are in charge over the public. This totalitarian philosophy has been present the whole time, but thinly veiled and mostly ignorable for most people. Now it's on display out in the open versus peaceful groups exercising their first amendment rights.

As an engineer who has been in senior management positions, I can sympathize with your position. This is a good time for introspection.

Almost all companies go through growth pains from a very small, close team to larger teams. The politics of small teams is different from the politics of larger team. Some of your questions seems like you are not comfortable with how larger organizations work. When I was a CTO, I made a mistake of telling engineers to come to me with problems and suddenly I was trying to solve every single tiny issue. Make sure the problems come up to you are worth their time. Otherwise, the managers below you are not doing their job.

You need to trust your peers and earn their trust. Further, everyone works under different expectations and pressure. Everything is a trade-off and everybody makes mistakes is correct, but that itself can be very unhealthy attitude for the company. It breeds complacence and creates half-baked systems. Hold yourself, your teams and others to a very high standard, all the time.

I would also suggest that you learn how to influence others using soft power. Understand what they want, where they are coming from and what their goals are. Understand and respect org boundaries and do think about secondary effects.

Finally, you are management and you cannot disagree with yourself.

For specific points, if you and your peer disagrees, you do not want to do it in an all-hands. Similarly, you do not want your managers to fight in front of their teams - it creates us vs them issues naturally. Everything else there also has another side to that coin and I suggest you think about those very carefully.
And that’s because you’re knowledgeable about the subject. You’ll see many people here and everywhere being assertive about things that are wrong and you’ll believe those people because you don’t know anything about the subject.
The recovery from the coronavirus sure looks V-shaped
I wish Croatia became a go to place for remote work. Beautiful place and climate, sit at a cafe with a laptop sipping Radlers all day long. I'm guessing there are corruption/inefficiency problems opening remote offices or office parks.
Is this what you have experienced or what you are seeing on the news? In my own experience, most cops are usually really nice, but I have also come into contact with those that have ego’s and are just plain assholes. However, from my own experience this is the case for society/people you come across in general.
The answer is that we’re not defending billionaires. We’re defending the idea of ownership. In this case, ownership of a company he founded and nurtured from the ground up into one of the most valuable companies on earth.

Just like you might own a house, he owns a technology company (just like someone might own a restaurant, or a car wash, or a bank, or a toothbrush).

The difference between you and I is that I am not envious of his success, and I don’t think it’s morally justifiable (if you believe in private property) to entirely randomly make up some imaginary line which, if the value of the thing you own crosses it, it’s suddenly wrong for you to own that thing.

Because that is literally what you are saying: “oh, it’s fine for someone to own a website that sells books online, but when that same person grows that business into a company that employs thousands of people and improves the lives of hundreds of millions (and therefore increases in value), it’s no longer ok for him to own it. It’s even worse if the company provides jobs that require no skill at all, because that would be just heinous.”

A few years behind whom, though? Consumer banking in the UK is eons ahead of America, and the UK has had a very dynamic and competitive consumer phone sector for years.
The McDonald's method works well: praise in public, follow up in private. I'm not really sure if that's endorsed by McDonalds' management training program anymore but I recall learning it from there in my youth.

One book I really enjoyed that helped me a lot was, Extreme Ownership [0].

Discord and disagreements happen. If they're happening a lot then there's a sign that your organization is dysfunctional and communication structures could use some work.

If you have this open disagreement happening a lot it can give your team the feeling that it's their responsibility to disagree as well. And then you end up with everyone undermining each other instead of working together. You can't be an effective leader if someone on your team is acting like a squeaky wheel and refusing to follow your lead.

It's a good idea to know why you're a team. What makes your team more effective than any individual member could be alone?

I'm guessing that you work on server-side stuff, because most people who do mobile/desktop work would say exactly the opposite if they desperately had to come up with a general rule: do whatever you want for servers, but you have to do things right for mobile/desktop. Those are your servers, and you can fix them whenever you want. You push software to end users, and it's gone forever.
Changes often happen slowly, and then all at once. Think of the tension like an earthquake, slowly building for years beneath the ground, and then unleashed all at once.
This is a minor nitpick but please check your facts about other Lisps when comparing them with Clojure.

> Part of that is due to deviations from traditional Lisps: a more human readable API (first, rest etc.)

first, second, rest ... are defined in Common Lisp

> and less homoiconicity (data structure syntax).

Clojure is no less homoiconic, you just write vector literals in your code; you could write vector literal to represent code in Common Lisp too, but in fact [], {} etc. are not used by default in CL because they are reserved for the user, so that it can be used for domain-specific purposes.

Not quite, this is the "core network" which handles things like handset authz/authn, billing, base station attachement etc.

A 5G basestation is called a gNB, and a handset is called a UE. This project doesn't involve the radio interface of 5G, so neither of those are included. There's another comment on the post outlining how you might go about standing up an actual network using this.
Not saying this isn't important data, but at some point does 2FA make this an innefective method to spy on your citizens? If I have 2FA on my Amazon, if the CCP tried to get into it I would just get a notification with a code, and do nothing except maybe change my password. Additionally, there are probably all sorts of account logs saying "this is who logged in when from what IP address" that are associated with a lot of these accounts.

Direct access via the companies themselves is probably much more valuable today.
Note: I performed security audits of VHA facilities for a couple of years.

Unlike non-federal hospital, this is due to jurisdiction. VHA Hospitals are federal land so local police departments wouldnt have any jurisdiction, and the federal government typically looks at its responsibility to enforce laws within the land it owns. Also, some VHA facilities are on large campuses in more rural/less urban areas which effects the size of the police forces there.
What you describe is a strong signal of a culture with very low trust and very insecure leadership.

>Conformity for its own sake is pointless to me, and something that will often lead to wrong decisions.

The point is usually that a unified wrong decision executed as a team is better than disparate better decisions executed separately. Of course, like everything there's nuances but the overall point is there can be advantages to simply executing a unified solution.
Props for the first xkcd link I don't feel like I wasted my time clicking.
> You're right, but that doesn't really explain why you want logographic writing.

I thought radically novel approaches to language were underrepresented in invented languages, and gave an example of something I [subjectively] consider to be an obviously interesting area for exploration.

(1) I think a language in which written forms of units differ appropriately to the distance in their meaning could be pretty cool, and (2) a fully phonetic system would thus not be unfeasible, as it would require pronunciation to always differ proportionately to semantics, which—since we are physically limited in the variety of sounds we can produce—could mean very long written forms.

That leaves logography of some kind. (I added “synthetic” as an additional challenge—logographic systems seem to be used by mostly analytic languages, so what if the opposite is attempted?)

As it turned out thanks to elsewhere in the thread, there do in fact exist constructed languages that address some of those points, although they are not very popular (and don’t tend to come up on HN) compared to Esperanto or Toki Pona.

- Manage and moderate content faster with help from Currents. Key metrics help admins and users measure engagement and find valuable insights.

Adopting new tools/products within a company is no small feat and nothing here seems like it'd move the needle for my business.

What am I missing?
There are services where you pay a monthly fee ($20 a month in my case), and you get a card with phone numbers for a law firm (actually it's a service that will connect you with a lawyer local to where you are). You get access to a lawyer for a certain amount of time without extra charge, the amount of time increasing the longer you pay for the service. If you get into serious legal trouble you will end up paying for a lawyer anyway, but a service like this will help in those circumstances where a cop wants to question you, and you want to say "I want a lawyer present."

I agree with some of the other commenters that you really should say the word "want", not "wish" or "would like". You need to be clear and emphatic about having a lawyer present.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. If you think global warming is a hoax and your city has no air quality problems, do you know big cars pollute? Do you know your plastic bottles pollute, if you always put them in a recycle bin (and never check to see what happens to the contents of those bins)?
Beyond philosophical debates on untranslatability, I think it's just nice to note specialized words that have no direct single-word equivalent in others.

Some of my favourites are the Italian verb apparecchiare (setting up the table before a meal, adding cutlery etc) and its opposite sparecchiare. To have precise words for this activity signals a culture focused on food and urbanity, which the Italian one definitely is.

I should note that I work at a non-technical company, and my exposure to new technologies is essentially non-existent. Which is why I am looking for a change.

Most of my experience is in maintaining servers and networks in offices and manufacturing, as well as supporting end users with all of their various issues.

I don't have much of a network to learn from, as I'm essentially entirely self taught, and have been googling my way through every job I've had for most of a decade.
I don't know about being blocked. I have a vps where I used a similar naive script and it got blacklisted by google. I sometimes tunnel through it. It has been getting captchas from google the past 7 years. It is pretty permanent.
This is a little embarrassing. I asked what I thought was a well-designed question to frame the problem in a way that made my own conclusion obvious. Clearly, I missed the mark, so I'll be more straightforward now.

Engineers below the upper senior levels typically operate with an "infinite" mindset in making these choices. We all laugh at the relevant XKCD[0] because there's a grain of truth in there. This isn't a knock on engineering, it's just the nature of operating at the lowest levels. You become involved in the problem and you solve for local maxima.

Leadership done well is going to offering transparency to the people on the ground level, communicating timelines and strategy in a way that is relevant to the problem at hand, so people know, for example, how long they can spend solving a particular problem.

Where this sometimes goes wrong is, the higher you go in leadership, the lesser certainty there is. There are no "right" answers, there isn't perfect information, and yet, decisions must be made. If engineering is operating on different base assumptions, those decisions will look wrong (and they might be). And yet, someone needs to get people aligned and moving forward, because moving fast in the wrong direction is typically better than moving too slow, even in the right direction.

Appreciate this post. I remember when I first started using Julia, I wanted to type every argument to every function because I thought static typing made me hip. Ran into a lot of problems with my types not being wide enough, etc. and had no performance impact.

Also, good to know about the NamedTuple. I've been away from Julia for about a year and am starting to get back into some development with it.

On another note, I just found out today that my department's HPC is still running Julia 0.4 and since we are in between IT people are not going to update it. Considering rewriting my project in Fortran or C++, waiting for the day when Julia is a first-class language

I would think you would do well at small companies or startups. You have more freedom to design the system there. Many big companies have overbearing policies or "cookie cutter" template architectures you have to follow.

In a smaller company you can also have more of an impact on solving whatever the business problem is. Selecting a company with interesting business problems could be good for you too (maybe fintech).

I know I am fed up with the big company politics/policies and boring business problems. I can't quit since I have a family to support. So I guess another piece of advice is to stay single so you have more freedom and options to change and move.
