Not the op, but:

1. Tautological: from company's perspective, it's bad for the company (itself) to go bad.

2. More broadly, it's reasonably self-evident that it's bad for employees, and bad for shareholders of a company, for that company to go bad

3. Where we can have discussions, and probably for a long and fun if not necessarily fruitful time, is whether it's "good" or "bad" from market's, or consumer's perspective for companies to go bad. I personally think not.

I think we'll likely mostly agree that it's good for market to filter out and punish bad companies or companies that go bad, once they go bad, for whatever reason; but that doesn't necessarily imply or follow that's it's good for companies to go bad.

In other words, what's your perspective/bias - why would it be GOOD for a company to go bad? Why would it not be absolutely fantastically wonderful if all companies perpetually stayed good and we lived in utopia of rainbows and unicorns? :>

(all this without defining what "company going bad" means, left as an exercise for the student :)

> 2) Missed too many ticks and replaced them with tocks. Fell far behind because of ridiculous tilt-at-windmill folly around Itanium and other architectural decisions that absolutely didn't pay off. Ended up taking way too long to get further down on process size.

I applied to Intel's architecture group in 2015, and when I asked one interviewer "does Intel have a strategy if TSMC catches up on process tech?" I was left with a blank stare, as though nobody in the group had contemplated the possibility. I didn't end up working there...

That said, Intel got exceptionally unlucky on which technologies they pursued and which they didn't, so I hope they can turn things around. They missed on through-silicon vias and chiplets, EUV, Cobalt wires, and several low-power transistor technologies.
Honestly I really don't mind parts of the Microsoft experience. Visual Studio is a pretty good IDE, and VS Code a lighter, more extensible alternative for some specific cases (I use it to fiddle with our Angular frontend apps). The .NET ecosystem is pretty good, and the Windows UI on its own would be pretty good even if I prefer a tiling window manager like xmonad. I can use cygwin and get a decent enough set of Unix-y tools that feel more "right" to me than Powershell (which I don't think I'll ever enjoy).

So that sort of stuff allows a decent enough, but not perfect, developer experience. But there's enough other fucking irritating bullshit that drives me up the wall - like Outlook is cluttered and annoying, and yeah Teams can fuck right off.
This is also my experience dealing with unions. Management is legally required to make concessions during collective bargaining, so anything that can be considered an improvement to mandatory bargaining topics (pay, benefits, or working conditions) gets held back for the contract negotiation.

In one case, management wanted to purchase sit/stand workstations for employees, but HR pointed out that this was a change to working conditions and should be included in the collective bargaining negotiation. However management had already started taking measurements for the tables, so the union knew what management was intending. During the negotiations, the union decided to try and call HR's bluff and refused to ask for the workstations as a concession. So in the end, the whole plan was scrapped so that HR would have concessions available for future negotiations.
> Telegram is absolutely the worst when it comes to privacy

Really? Telegram never said that they don't store your messages on cloud, they said that they do not sell your data or share it with third parties for profit.

Telegram has received a very good score on PrivacySpy (https://privacyspy.org), in fact better than any other messaging app. Telegram is good from a regular privacy perspective unless your threat model involves fearing cloud convenience.

Even FBI's leaked documents confirmed that Telegram does not ever share user data easily. [Source](https://www.securitynewspaper.com/2021/11/30/leaked-fbi-docu...)

If you're someone who requires spy-level opsec, you should be using Threema, Session or Speek. Maybe even a self-hosted XMPP instance.

Telegram is good at what it does and it states it very clearly. It does not lie about the things it does and it is open source. All while not selling user data, not manipulating user behavior through algorithms or censoring media by calculating hashes and providing what's arguably the most feature rich messaging app on the planet for free with a verifiable source code.

Also, be careful with what you're suggesting. Not only have Matrix servers been hacked twice but matrix also leaks metadata. If you're seriously suggesting true anonymity (not consenting privacy) then Matrix is not a good option.

I would be concerned to pay Google in this way. There are a lot of discussions including on this site about how Google's AI bot is prone to banning accounts, and then it is difficult or impossible to reach a knowledgeable and empowered human support agent to get unbanned. It seems like that bot would automatically add some level of suspicion to an account that is paying in crypto.
Sure, they use this shady and clearly unconstitutional tactic to nab someone you don't like once or twice.

But how many times do they use it to control/ruin/subjugate people you and I have never heard of? Who speaks up for them?
A small counter, since this conversation is over, but I said "religious" contributions. Almost all the contributions you listed were non-religious in nature. I am well aware that, at one point, Muslim nations were far more advanced than Christian nations, and that we owe much to them in the realms of math, science, and the preservation of history. It's also nice to hear that they practiced religious tolerance better than Christians, too, at least at one point in history.

And also:

1) Because I have evidence of the influence of Christianity on the entire world, but no such evidence for the faith if Islam. I am not saying that evidence doesn't exist, but you yourself certainly failed to provide any.
Does the unionized store have a contract with apple already? If so, it would seem like until the contract is up, apple should continue operating under the terms of that contract with respect to the unionized store.

> No longer can management kick the can down the road on things that many of us wanted to directly address.

I'm also a union coder now. I agree.

The work we do is inherently collaborative. Any issue that affects one of my coworkers at this company or anyone doing similar work will eventually affect me. Without a union, employers force us all into a race to the bottom to internalize costs that they should bear a greater share of (e.g. crunch time due to failure to plan).

That was a long time ago. AMD has shipped iGPUs/integrated platforms and dGPUs with fully mainlined drivers for ages now. Only recently has Intel gained credibility with Iris iGPUs beating AMD's, whereas for the longest time you had to pair Intel platforms with Nvidia GPUs to get any kind of graphics performance, spelling trouble due to Nvidia's insistence on closed drivers and binary blobs.
In original Mario he does have only one eye though, and it’s on the side of his face?
> less competent/lazier workers

That's an extremely naive view of the people a union is intended to protect. Even a minimal amount of research, or even some simple pondering of the situations your fellow employees might find themselves in that benefit from a stronger work contract would lead to many other cases where a union has benefit.

That's not to say a union is right for every company or job, but to think it only benefits those you outlined is just plain silly when any thought it put into it. If you really need some help in figuring out a beneficial case, consider what purpose insurance often serves, and also consider power imbalances when you have a bunch of individuals against one large unified opponent (when any negotiation can be considered adversarial under these conditions).

I’m not sure the timeline really works for this argument. Pentium was the first x86 superscalar and that was 1993 so it predates Itanium.

Rather Intel wanted to leave the baggage of x86 behind, segment the market for higher profits and hoped to get better performance than superscalar x86. But they never achieved the latter and most people just wanted 64 bit and software compatibility.
In this market what counts is performance/watt ratio. Battery power is a big selling point for cell phones, and so you can charge a bit more for less watts. Though of course price does matter too. There are also embedded markets where you have to be passively cooled, again watts matter.

My impression is Intel hit the price for embedded just fine, but at higher watts, and thus they can't compete.
It would mean that somewhere there is a common root, which if extracted, can derive all keys for all sites.

Why introduce such a risk when there’s no reason to do that?

Musicians don’t spit out an album in one sitting and they’re highly trained in theory. They get bored and tired of a process and take breaks. They come up with an album of loops composed together over time.

AIs state will forever be constrained to the limits of human cognition and behavior as that’s what it’s trained on.

I read published research all year. Circular reasoning. Tautology. It’s all over PhD thesis.

There’s no “global structure” to humanity. Relativity is a bitch.

Seeing the world through the vacuum of embedded inner monologue ignores the constraints of the physical one. It’s exhausting dealing with the mentality some clean room idea we imagine in a hammock can actually exist in a universe being ripped asunder by entropy.

It’s living in memory of what we were sold; some ideal state. Very akin to religious and nation state idealism.

> missing profit guidance for the quarter

The Innovator's Dilemma isn't about missing quarterly guidance. The dilemma is that it's perfectly rational and profit maximizing to continue focusing on your cash cow even when obsolescence is a foregone conclusion. It wouldn't be a true dilemma, otherwise.

The incumbent is the only player that can maximally squeeze the very considerable remaining profits from old technology, and they should do so with gusto. Moreover, switching to new technologies comes with more risk, even when it seems obvious what the new market will look like because the old market has almost zero risk--it's completely proven.

All the "solutions" to avoid the dilemma, like selling the old technology to take future profits and then pivoting to the new market, are just corporate branding shell games. They might even be in fact sub-optimal, but in any event the fundamental dynamics remain the same.

Students break acceleration world record...for electric vehicles.

This isn't close to the record for dragsters; if they can increase the energy density per unit mass there are traction and downforce improvements that can be used to improve this. It's very hard to beat chemical energy like detonating gasoline or nitromethane - you're looking at roughly a factor of 100, with ~40 MJ/kg for gasoline and 0.4 MJ/kg for a lithium ion battery - especially if you're racing through a 15 PSI gas that you can use in your chemical reaction without having to accelerate it onboard.

I suspect that traction control for an electric motor may someday allow electric vehicles to exceed the records held by internal (well, mostly internal) combustion engines. You could keep the tire at exactly the right amount of slip for maximum acceleration, rather than trying to balance centrifugal clutches to get just the right amount of power at the right time.

I wonder what the record is for a vehicle that can pick up electric energy from a tether/rail/overhead wire...though cables that can carry megawatts of energy are probably pretty heavy.

Edit: I think the most interesting category here is the typical friction-propelled, human-carrying vehicle of either chemical or electric power sources. Railguns, rockets, fan cars (using active downforce), and vehicles which engage the ground by rack and pinion are qualitatively different. When the question is accelerating your own mass forwards using the friction developed by your own mass being pulled down by gravity, there's an interesting optimization problem trading off weight and power.
There are no public RCS API's. No one (besides an OEM) can make an RCS app.
I used to make a tool that did this with Postscript and embedded EPSes, so you could use Quark or InDesign to create the templates.

The problem with using PDF is that most tools flatten the output, so that makes things a bit difficult.

I mean, exponents can be fractions. Maybe it's x^1.2 faster? I think it is funny when advertisements claim that something is "a fraction of the price". You could literally raise prices and run such an ad, and be technically correct. 3/2 is a fraction, after all.

Setting aside that Ritalin is the more common drug of choice for treating adolescents…

I’m in my 40s, and have been taking prescription amphetamines for ~20 years now. To this day, my experience is consistent and predictable. Before I take my first dose (which isn’t always in the morning), I have little ability to control where my attention goes. It’s not that I lack attention, mind you. There’s plenty of water in the tank, I just can’t control the firehose, and the nozzle just sprays water everywhere. My brain is a “noisy” place, different aspects of my cognition demanding to be the one that is heard. It’s a firehouse full of firefighters demanding to direct that wide-stream firehose. Every interruption, every slow driver, every unexpected sound, they’re all adding to the din, each one a firefighter demanding the firehose for their own purposes. If I’m lucky, I can fight them off and direct the hose where I want…until a new firefighter (distraction) walks in.

As a result, I’m anxious, irritable, fidgety, and impatient. You’d think I was on speed, given how quickly my attention jumps from one thing to another, and how quickly I lose the ability to focus on non-novel, boring things. It doesn’t matter if they’re “fires” that require my attention, I’m just ill-equipped to battle for the firehose.

About 20–30 minutes after a dose, the noise abates. The firefighters disperse. The flow to the firehose is narrowed and slowed, and I’m able to consciously hold on to it; I can direct the water (my attention) wherever I need to. Sometimes, I don’t even need to hold on to it, and it just stays where I pointed it (“hyperfocus”).

At the end of the day, when my meds wear off, I’m not exhausted from fighting my own brain all day long. I’m more relaxed. Peaceful. Calm. Patient.

I’ve seen no cognitive or physiological deficits as a result of taking prescription amphetamines for ~20 years. Because my wife and other adult friends/family members knew me before my diagnosis, they have a baseline to compare to when evaluating my behavior. I’ve asked outright, several times: they’ve seen nothing but positive improvements in my attitude, my ability to work, and my relationships with them and others.

Keep at home. I deal with the question alot, and the question you need to ask yourself. "If a pedophile or a terrorist used this program on github, would it cause more harm than gain to the world?". Usually the answer is it causes more harm, so you should keep the technique and methods to yourself.
American management is adversarial to unions.

American management is adversarial to workers.
Do you know how much income the investors/managers in your firm are taking home? How does it compare to your income? Are they factoring in your time and stress when making big strategic decisions?

I've had coworkers that didn't pull their weight in non-union shops that were able to skate by because they were buddies with a manager who played political games well. My union (CWA) is pushing at multiple workplaces to have a more objective review and hiring process.

But the occasional struggling or unprepared coworker has affected me way less than instances of poor management.
Do you mean duration and not speed?

Sure the readout gives a max speed reached but the numbers they compete over, and the numbers which establish car classes, are the time duration for the 1/4mi run.

That's an average acceleration around 2g. This seems beyond the limits of tires and friction. Do aerodynamic down forces kick in fast enough to make more force usable against the road at these relatively low speeds? Do the tires have more than static friction going for them (say, fine scale interlocking with the pavement)?

Drag racers can do 3gs, but that's at higher average speed.
