It is hard to say for sure, but this organization used configuration controlled documents for design documentation before atlassian came along. When they made the switch (and hired oodles of graduates) suddenly about half of them ignore confluence or latex for design, because "jira has markdown". Oh hurray, we have a bad typesetting language mixed in with our bug tracker, lets shove our entire design in there! It is possible this is the influence of the graduates we hired, but it felt like everyone got there together while playing with the new toy.
I suspect it's because of a solid physical engineering culture. They probably have enormous safety factors and redundancies or work-arounds, since you can't change anything physically once it's launched.

So if things go alright, those provide lifespan far beyond specifications.
Bitbucket recently has shockingly poor reliability. Quite often you see nothing on the status page but see other people having issues on twitter. We've nearly migrated everything to github, plus github has better features and more powerful.

I don't think you understand how software development works. Q: How much hardware do you need? A: How much you got?

The latest generation only gets the battery longevity because software developers still have to support the previous generation. As soon as enough e-waste happens, the gains disappear.

You got me. The last time I installed Docker, I remember doing it using packages, so I assumed that was the replacement. Looking at their comment, it looks like they got tired of people arguing about it, so they changed the instructions to sidestep the argument. I don't think they seriously believe this made a security difference.

> You can't even inspect the code you run when you do curl|bash and the server is able to detect this distinction and hide code when you do a curl and then run bash.

I addressed exactly this argument two comments ago.

When did I ever say anything about GitHub? This isn't my argument at all.

Come on, nobody actually verifies all the code they run.

The good thing about the fact that Atlassian offers both on-prem and cloud versions of their offerings is, everyone is now aware of the awful engineering practices that underpin their products. We have to assume that there are problems of a similar nature in their cloud service, which is way more of a problem considering the number of orgs that depend on the JIRA SaaS offering.

Maybe the founders could have used some of that time spent planning a tunnel between their side-by-side $100M houses, or engaged in Twitter rants, to actually bother delivering value to customers. It’s only a matter of time before this product suite is disrupted, and it might represent one of the most obvious low-hanging opportunities in our entire industry.

I still remember being in line at a WWDC a few years back, overhearing someone ask a developer, “where do you work?” When the developer responded with “HipChat,” the other person immediately chuckled and said, “oh — Atlassian... I’m sorry” — and then everyone around them also started laughing. It’s amazing that this company continues to fall up, and that the founders have taken on roles as the ruling digital gurus of Australia (shows you why it’s so easy for the government to run circles around the local tech industry and pass whatever laws they want).

Aren't you overhyping it a little bit? Crossing the Rubicon (Rubicon is a river)?

Civilians were being already sent in 1986 (unsuccessfully...) and in 1990 (successfully). What's a difference between a civilian that has or has not a prosthesis? It is not like they are going to be doing some kind of superhuman feats.

They could have sent a disabled person just as well in 1986 if they decided so. If I remember there were even discussions to choose who to send to space to show how routine and safe it is and disabled person was discussed. But in the end they decided to choose woman teacher as better publicity stunt.

The real important differences here are:

1. Falling costs of sending anything to orbit.

2. A business model and a technical plan to keep the costs falling for the foreseeable future.

3. Competition supported by free market.

4. A leader with power, means, plan, drive and ability to execute to achieve great things.

That one is easy to imagine (and is already deployed for some other use-cases in Brazil). People will be required by the government to have a client certificate, in order to interact with government services.

You just slowly increase the scope of both which people are required and for what. If you increasing it slowly enough, most people won't even notice or status-quo-bias it into being "business as usual".

Running Docker containers with podman (on NetBSD)
The UK has always been authoritarian-monarchist with the minimum level of reform and public inclusion necessary to placate the middle class. In some ways this was better than comparable European countries; whenever there was a flashpoint there was always enough reform to avert armed revolution in the capital, so the UK had no 1789 moment. (Don't forget the armed rebellion in Northern Ireland for half the 20th century! Complete with kangaroo courts, political prisoners, troops shooting people in the street, and of course censorship. Anyone else remember Gerry Adams MP being banned from speaking on television and the "words read by an actor" compromise?)

However the country had no formal free speech guarantee until the Human Rights Act 1998. The public and press retain an authoritarian streak; the Tory press are generally quite happy to support Internet censorship because it won't affect them and in fact affects their competition.

The UK has a lot of aspects which are "authoritarian on paper, liberal in practice, don't worry about the lack of formal guarantees, we don't do that here because we're British". Until we do do that here and nobody is held accountable.

None of which has anything whatsoever to do with the issue of AGW though. For the purposes of warming the planet, direct energy usage and emission by humanity is irrelevant (utterly swamped by solar insolation for starters). What's driving it is our changing the net levels of greenhouse gases and in turn the amount of energy retained vs radiated into space. So what matters for dealing with climate disruption is making sure our activities are greenhouse neutral (and for a while we should go carbon negative), all debates of "efficiency" or "luxury" or whatever are extremely foolish distractions. If everything is greenhouse neutral with associated prices becoming clear than people can figure the rest out from there about where they wish to allocate their extra resources.

SpaceX intends to develop direct atmospheric methane generation from CO2, which they have to do anyway for their Mars plans because that's the only way to do in-situ refueling there (plenty of CO2 in the atmosphere, not exactly a lot of natural gas fields). Taking into account any methane leaks and correcting for its few decades of enhance greenhouse effect before it decomposes to CO2, they certainly could make Starship carbon neutral and if they do it doesn't matter how much "energy" in the abstract it uses beyond price. Solar and wind power have plenty positive power factors.

Worth noting that in principle nothing is special about Starship here, carbon neutral RP1 could be made as well (at a further hit to conversion efficiency and thus price). In practice though green methane is more practical and will amortize better given its use elsewhere in the solar system.
It's about the specific actions, such as executive incentives and altering stock structure based in the ideology of "maximizing shareholder value." The "ideology" should lead to some specific actions based on the logic of what you are trying to maximize (mostly stock price), but they actions don't work, so we have to look for some other "ideology" that operates better.
It is pretty straightforward to allow this, and surprising that Apple don't. As far as I know most solutions take some power from the charger with the battery itself devoted to charging. Problems can arise if the device requires too much power, but in the case of a mouse I doubt that would be an issue.

The shaver probably demands more power than the charger provides.

Can't but help to feel that what you describe is a breakdown of both organization and work process.

It wasn't atlassian that "came along" - someone penned down an agreement and, from what it sounds, there was a lack of clarity both in regards to current and future principles of work and collaboration.

What we can do, as devs, to protect ourselves from the madness you describe is to be explicit about our work processes and their purpose.
Nothing much, but just a set of agreed upon principles and ways of working which should have nothing to do with tools.

What you end up with, by being explicit, is for having "something" to be supported by one or several tools.

Makes it easier to evaluate, select and change tooling that is fit for purpose.

Just a note on this, this is something I'd like to build in eventually. It's just that each layer of our own we add upon the underlying methods increase the risk of error in something fairly critical.

A simple command-line based backup solution wouldn't be too difficult to add, but restore and admin-panel usage are more significant challenges once you get into it.
