I don't think Quietube (http://quietube.com/) has been updated since 2009, but it does this as a bookmarklet and still works today.
YouTube is amazing for the sort of tacit knowledge the author is talking about, as well as things that actually transfer pretty well in well written manuals, like auto repair. I use YouTube to find tacit information on household/auto repairs, how to enhance my 3d printer, etc... all the time. It really is a new repository of knowledge for humankind. It is amazing, and boon for me and my life.

However, much of my ability to enjoy and use that tacit knowledge is predicated on having other basic skills. I know my way around tools and a shop both because my dad taught me and because I took courses in school.

YouTube (and much of online learning generally) is fantastic to for learning specific, point in time skills that you need to use right away. This is incredibly important and incredibly useful. It is less good at ensuring the people learn the fundamental skills they need to make these sorts of point in time learnings accessible. After all, while I didn't learn how to replace the trunk lock assembly on a 2010 Toyota Highlander in school, but I did build enough things in Junior High shop class that I knew what a socket wrench was and that it was possible to fix things.

These technologies and systems serve different needs, I think its important to recognize that.
I wonder if "best employer" is even possible for a company at the scale of Amazon. The wants and needs of different members of staff will conflict with one another at scale. What's a great employer for one person is an overly bureaucratic micromanagement nightmare for another. Unless the company is capable of managing every person who works there on an entirely individual basis the goal of "best employer" is ultimately a futile one.

"Not the worst employer" is much more realistic.
It’s really not contradictory at all.

I'm learning how to drive a Porsche 911 cup car in sim.

There's this guy on YouTube who races the car in both real life and iRacing, and he explains how he drives the car fast in both contexts.

His insights probably saved me a lot of work of figuring it out myself.
It's expensive, but certainly not impossible. What you are looking for is a "commercial monitor". https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Flat-Panel-Displays/ci/16...
Climate alarmists have a poor reputation around data manipulation as this short video discussing the recent US climate assessment unpacks.
https://www.globalchange.gov
https://youtu.be/8455KEDitpU

11 year solar cycles are a split second moment in time in comparison to the longer term data which is so often cherry picked and truncated to illustrate various agendas, whether dishonest globalist energy corporate entities or climate alarmists.
I'm all for responsible stewardship of the planet, but there i s no shortage of climate grifters, charlatans and hustlers out there, many of whom are actually influencing government policy and data. Unhelpful.
Not A Satellite Labs | Co-Founder (Mobile Sensing - iOS and/or Android) | Remote (U.S.) | https://notasatellite.com

We're building the world's first real-time map using a network of cameras aboard 120,000 daily commercial flights. Our approach lets us gather thousands of times more earth observation data at a fraction of the operational cost of building, launching, and maintaining satellites. Our competitors (Maxar, Planet, Airbus) advertise daily updates; we've demonstrated 1,430 updates on a single coordinate in early tests using just a cell phone camera.

We've recently filed 6 patents related to the core sensing methods and will be filing 6 more in Q3. We have a 3-member advisory team consisting of a retired Air Force Lt. General, CTO of a Bay-Area tech company, and the former CEO of MetroCall. I'm a technical founder looking to bring on a co-founder who can assist me with building the mobile application that handles in-flight sensing. We currently have 450 customer commitments running on a negligible burn rate and are in the process of raising our seed round.

If you'd like to hear more about the business concept, current challenges or the product roadmap, shoot me an email (chris@notasatellite.com) or check us out on social media @notasatellite.

Oh yes. The oligarchs over here look at China and think, "That's a pretty good system".
Your examples are not relative to the discussion. Perjury is a crime because people have to tell the truth in the court system. The whole justice system and thus, society, would break down if anyone could say whatever they wanted in a court of law without being punished.
False Advertising is a crime because it is a commercial activity with the intent to commit fraud and not an individual saying their opinions.
Protecting investors from being lied to incentivizes investors to spend less resources on discerning whether representations made to them are true. "More investment" isn't a definite good if it leads to investment in the wrong places.

Abstract

> Changes and continuous progress in logistics and productive systems make the realization of improvements in decision making necessary. Simulation is a good support tool for this type of decisions because it allows reproducing processes virtually to study their behavior, to analyze the impact of possible changes or to compare different design alternatives without the high cost of scale experiments. Although process simulation is usually focused on industrial processes, over the last two decades, new proposals have emerged to bring simulation techniques into software engineering. This paper describes a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) which returned 8,070 papers (published from 2013 to 2019) by a systematic search in 4 digital libraries. After conducting this SLR, 36 Software Process Simulation Modelling (SPSM) works were selected as primary studies and were documented following a specific characterization scheme. This scheme allows characterizing each proposal according to the paradigm used and its technology base as well as its future line of work. Our purpose is to identify trends and directions for future research on SPSM after identifying and studying which proposals in this topic have been defined and the relationships and dependencies between these proposals in the last five years. After finishing this review, it is possible to conclude that SPSM continues to be a topic that is very much addressed by the scientific community, but each contribution has been proposed with particular goals. This review also concludes that Agent-Based Simulation and System Dynamics paradigm is increasing and decreasing, respectively, its trend among SPSM proposals in the last five years. Regarding Discrete-Event Simulation paradigm, it seems that it is strengthening its position among research community in recent years to design new approaches.
This comment seems entirely unrelated to what it is responging to...

You seem to be accusing the person you are responding to of being Brewdog? Or were you trying to say Brewdog uses defamation to silence criticism of their marketing tactics? Or are you trying to promote Brewdog by publicising their deliberate controversies? I just can't figure it out.
I don't know, that's why I prefixed the possible scenario with "maybe"
This is what they say but what do they signal to people in the day-to-day operations?

Some companies howl endlessly about diversity (say) but the signal is very different when every single executive and manager is a white guy with the same privileged (not self made, parents paid their whole way) background.
There is synapse-admin https://github.com/Awesome-Technologies/synapse-admin/

The matrix-docker-ansible-deploy playbook will install it for you very easily. All it takes is enabling one config option.

That's true, or in cases of in-network m2m communication of course. 5Ghz is still faster, you just can't utilize it if your internet speed is slow. It's like saying a Ferrari isn't faster than an old VW Beetle because the speed limit is only 25. Technically correct.
Does the FDA have to approve it for American NGOs to distribute it internationally? Definitely would make more of a difference to African and India
By keep up I mean in terms of standards.

Edge was always usable, but you'll always get second-grade experience if apps switch to the "fallback mode" on your browser.

Google is playing this game of quickly introducing standards they're already implementing in Chrome, and choking out the competition. And it worked with Microsoft. Worked with Opera.

Firefox is last man standing.
Radish | VP of Technology, CTO, or technical Junior Founder | San Francisco, CA | Onsite | myradish.com

Radish is a tech-enabled, next-generation employee dining startup. We are the only employee meal program in the country with:
-meals designed by michelin-starred chefs and top chef alums
-customized meal plans for each employee with a subscription-based order flow
-Serving both remote, in-office and hybrid workforces.

We are launching in August with roughly $10M ARR already secured. This is the latest project from an established and industry-leading Bay Area hospitality group, but our first project with a software emphasis. We are launching our MVP with off-the-shelf technology but looking for a full-stack engineer who can plug in as a core member of our team to build our proprietary technology over time. We are both a food and technology company, but in our long-term trajectory the emphasis will be on the software in its proprietary and/or SAAS implications.

We have a clear outline of our technology needs, but we're hoping for someone who will really take ownership over the project, and who can engage holistically with the operations to better understand how the technology can enable and enhance it. This would be a hands-on role to start, but the position will eventually lead a team. The position can have a mix of equity and salary compensation.

We are looking for someone who is really excited by the project, who is passionate about food, who is interested in understanding the full operational structure of the company and its long-term vision for growth and expansion, who isn't afraid to do some coding themselves but is also an exceptional leader.

One aspect that is often overlooked is the possibility of having labor represented at the executive level. The people doing the work have good idea about how to improve the product or what changes will be bad for the product. I always heard that unions leads to greater quality and I think it is because that greater voice lets you push back when management askes you to cut corners.

Making computers do stupid things with GitHub Copilot
Moderation tools are slowly improving, but definitely still don't fit all use cases, and it's very unfortunate they don't come natively with synapse. I'm the lead admin of a Matrix ' Space', and our main room now has over 6,000 users (80%+ are inactive or barely active). We use mjolnir(https://github.com/matrix-org/mjolnir) to ban and redact users/servers/messages across all of our rooms, which has been a godsend since I used to have to redact all the racist/gore myself message-by-message. It's still reactive instead of proactive, but I'm hoping these tools will mature in time.
Amazon uses leadership principles extensively internally when doing performance evaluations and promotions, and they are baked into nearly every decision, both product and technical. Of course much of this depends on one's interpretation of the principles, but they are definitely not "just nice PR".
Well their Frugality principle certainly checks out according to the press. Who needs bathroom breaks when you can pee in bottles?

"Frugality
Accomplish more with less. Constraints breed resourcefulness, self-sufficiency and invention. There are no extra points for growing headcount, budget size, or fixed expense."
That looks like a problem you can solve by changing the company which is relatively easy in Tech/IT.
The article mentions that the parasites are treated if they infect the blood or liver…

So I guess they are monitoring the vaccinated closely. Honestly sounds a bit touchy.
This is great news, would probably rephrase the whole "injecting you with live parasites" thing though

I don't at all want to give the impression that I'm against liberal democracy or individual freedoms. I'm with you there. I'm just not convinced that they're as compatible with absolute private ownership of capital as they are billed to be. And I don't by any means think nationalization is some silver bullet or even the ideal strategy - just trying to think it through.

But setting that aside for the moment, it does seem that up to now, exposing corruption, counter-lobbying, and courts have been our primary tools for fighting back against the likes of Exxon. How is it going so far? It does not appear to have worked in time to avoid major catastrophe. Is there a limit to their effect? And when we talk about counter-lobbying and using courts, what outcome do we hope to achieve with a company like Exxon? Do we want them to pay for the externalities of climate change?

But the reason you care is because the language is built out of the same machinery that you the developer have access to. It's not only an implementation detail because you have access to it as well.
Ah sorry, I just assumed you were a dev trying to get into contracting given the context.

To answer your question a bit better, I don't see much career growth per se, there's certainly no ladder I am climbing, it just becomes easier and easier to find work over time thanks to prior experience compounding. You get to choose nicer contracts and work with people you like.

There's a lot of potential for personal development though, and you can choose to spend more time on developing recurring revenue and "productifying" your expertise instead of just selling your time hourly.
It looks like you have just generalized entrepreneurship.

There are also some simple facts about growing up poor. Even giving a poor person a lot of money does not put them in the same boat as someone who grew up around the mentality of "money as a tool" instead of "money as a scarce resource." There are biological differences [1] to growing up poor vs wealthy. Those differences are often compounded by poor nutrition which leads to poor health and other real impairments [2] including learning impairment and unwise decision making.

Within your three categories, 1 and 2 look awfully similar to my eyes. There is a luxury of time, knowledge and choice implied. 3 is a wildcard for great success or great failure often decided by luck. Great failure might mean homelessness or even death. Smartly, many people in category 3 opt for life and an underpaying 9-5 (or several of them) rather than rolling those dice.

> We are creating a culture of excuses for anybody who fails at chasing their dreams or doesn’t even have the motivation to do so; the equivalent of getting a “trophy for trying”, but tailored to adults.

You seem to be implying that it's a moral failing of some kind to NOT be an entrepreneur - am I reading you right? As though failing at a risky undertaking - or not bothering in the first place - is something that needs to be excused?
Of course it matters. Whether something is subjective or not has nothing to do with whether something is reasonable or not.
