I worked at a company where the new CTO instituted SAFe (which he used at a previously failing company).

It was an unmitigated disaster, everyone was miserable. Developers were leaving so quickly consultants were brought in to stem the bleed.

When I left the CTO was trying to retain the little talent there was left by holding monthly Q&A sessions. The final question I heard before I left was something like, “why are the consultants treated better than the employees? They don’t have to do SAFe.”

Did you give the TV adaption of The Man in the High Castle a try? It’s on Prime, I found it quite enjoyable.
Isn’t that just revenge seeking and why America’s criminal Justice system is so messed up compared to Europe? If we focused on rehabilitation rather than punishment, we would probably get better results for society, than focusing on punishment to appease the victim and their family’s needs for punishment?

How do we balance rehabilitation and punishment properly? Right now, the USA seems to do it very poorly.
> Also it is pretty disgusting that CIA (or, as the latest agency-approved "conspiracy theory" has it, "rogue elements" of CIA) killed Kennedy to make sure we fought that stupid war.

You got any good sources on this? I say this as someone who’s not a skeptic but curious on good JFK sources as many are not.

My mom actually knew David Lifton at UCLA and his book presents an interesting case. If my memory’s right, he was a Cornell Engineering Physics graduate who was doing an advanced degree at UCLA. Which doesn’t make him right of course but does at least lead you to think that he knows a thing or two about objective data and what not.
Of course, because the root problem in the US is most people cannot afford the healthcare that they expect to receive. Hence all the political maneuvering to redistribute wealth, and the corresponding efforts to avoid having one’s (present or future) wealth redistributed.
>My entire panel is only good for 150A of service, so I am wondering if I could even fill up a battlefield match before my main trips.

Keep in mind, while the US uses 120V at the outlet, virtually all residential service is 240V (typically two phases of 120V), so in theory your home has 240V@150A=36 kilowatts of peak capacity. With some high gauge extension cords to distribute the load to different circuits in your house, you'll likely run out of space or friends before you run out of power.
I hate the US penal system. I grew up a semi conservative individual. Good guys and bad guys. Three strikes and your out sounded great. Tough on crime. All of that.

A couple years ago, I was asked by my faith congregation to serve as a volunteer at our local maximum security state prison, offering Sunday services to the inmates. I did so for 3 years. It changed me.

We’re there some truly troubled/warped people there? Yes. Do I kid myself that their “stories” weren’t surely one sided? No.

I was struck by how arbitrary the whole thing is. And how utterly ineffective it is. What troubled me the most is that we have outsourced this whole raft of problems, without sending it overseas. We want “problems” to just go away. And stay away. And so we outsource the existence of human lives to an alternate universe that exists right beneath our toes. And we maintain fascinating opinions about these people and their lives, with almost zero insight into what the existence we consigned them to was. When people heard I went to the prison every Sunday to visit with inmates, they would immediately wax their opinion about what it must be like. And I found over time that their imagination did not match my reality. Their can be no empathy in that scenario.

I dream (pointlessly) about a world where a much higher percentage of lay civilians spent volunteer time in prisons. Awareness leads to empathy. And only then when we weren’t outsourcing the issue, we might actually be moved to find something more effective.
You’re right, and that came as a real surprise to me. My current phone is 5 years, and I’m into tech, so I assumed that the average people was at least as long as what I usually do.
Would it be possible to make something like gitea that's federated on the issues level? I feel like that'd be really useful.
I have a bachelor and master of EE. My first job out of college starting my programming career (in Fortran), eventually moving to C and then C++. As my career progressed, I made myself into a software systems engineer. After several years of that, I started taking on full blown systems engineering things which I greatly enjoyed. That started my distancing from software development, mainly from interests but also because I became to expensive to write code. Fortunately, the companies I worked for were willing to support my career goals. YMMV.
Oh agreed. Death is not a good option. I'm mostly saying that life in prison, especially in American prisons, is not a good one either.
Well, that's an anecdote, but numerous studies indicate that black people, indigenous people, women, people in poverty, transgender people, are systematically mistreated by health care systems in north america. I know HN loves to pretend that racism only affects white people, but it just ain't so.

I'm agnostic to how exactly the biosphere is restored but I'm certain that it can not be done through market and capital dynamics no matter how clever or distributed the scheme. Money tends to cause ideological brain damage and those past a certain age with such damage are unable to imagine any kind of future without it.

>So when I passed through the prison gates, I took on the persona of a deadly gangster. I did things that landed me in “the hole” — slang for administrative segregation — over and over.

while I am by no means a supporter of cruel punishment, the tone in a lot of prison inmate's writings mirrors that one in that they do not seem to take ownership of their own crimes. When you go to prison for literal murder, I don't think 'deadly gangster' is a 'persona' any longer. That's just a description of what you are.
> The third variable is taxes

One of the charts in the submission shows that effective corporate tax rate continues to drop (from ~30% to ~15% over the last 2 decades). How much lower do you want it to go?

Also, if you replace the method of taxation (eg sales/income to land value use as you suggested), that's still a tax, meaning the only way to lower taxes is to... lower taxes. Changing the method of taxation doesn't inherently do that.

> Someone who committed a crime at 19 is a wholly different person at 50.

Not necessarily, some people are just bad or damaged to the extent that they can not live a normal life within society.

I remember kids I knew as a child who were just evil, such as cruelty to animals, violence towards females, etc for no logical reason and these are all people who ended up in prison for some crime or another.

There has to be a sanction for this kind of destructive behaviour and the remote chance that some random violent criminal has a potential to be to be some of saint, if only they have one more chance, is robbed of this opportunity is a price worth paying for the greater good..
Agreed. The US has some weird priorities in my estimation.

Excellent question. I worked in politics after the military and when I was in the West Wing during the Bush admin it came up once! They said the same thing, that it was the ship's idea. I reminded them that aircraft carriers don't have printing presses so it would be a little hard for the sailors to put that kind of banner together.

It could be that the ship's leadership wanted something like that (they are politicians too). But at least in my squadron we were all furious the president was coming because we had been out at sea for the longest nuclear and F-14 cruise of all time (10 months) and we just wanted to go home to our families but now we are delayed another week for a political stunt and have to spend the next two weeks cleaning the ship in preparation.
I sure hope those that did heinous crimes are.
So when the organization makes attempts to correct what amounts to a failure and cleans house the people getting a free ride should also get a handout on their way to the door?

Freeloaders have always existed, getting their position thanks to their connections and not their effort. It isn't something new and other work is being done that could be shared. A few people are working hard while a bunch of others pray on them for a paycheck. Haha, and my other post got flagged, ha, that's the pettiness in action.

If this is you, then I don't think you want to view it from the other perspective. Somebody is working really hard to get things done and a bunch of others jump in at the last minute to grab some credit, then go back to doing nothing. Or worse still, back to undermining the hardest workers out of promotions and recognition for not being "a team player"

They have everything to lose if they don't defend this attitude, but you have everything to gain if you start realizing your worth
No, it's a common story of what DataDog sales is.

Used to be a customer, 7-figures annual invoice with DataDog, not anymore. Heck, working with them for years, I still managed to make a mistake and get 4-figures bill on my personal account.

Their sales are worse than paparazzi who spy on celebs. Avoid at all costs.

The "what about" game will ruin any debate.

The delivery of justice vs human rights is not a simple matter and anyone trying to discuss it in this type of forum is doing themselves and the subject a disservice.
As an owner of a couple of companies, I get almost constant unsolicited spam, SMS, and calls.

I generally ignore most. Occasionally, if I feel confident it will be honored, I unsub.

I just feel that it is corrosive, professionally, to complain about/attack others in a professional fora.

For example, LinkedIn often has stuff posted that could be used as a powerful emetic. I just ignore it. I may take note of the author, for consideration in professional relationships, but I won't usually say anything about their posting.

There are a number of subreddits, dedicated to sneering at others; I am aware of ones dedicated to sneering at programmers (having been honored by their attention).

While these may be de rigueur, while in high school or early college, I believe that it's a bad idea to continue participating in these types of things, once we start earning a paycheck. Often, the people we slag, can end up in a position to do us favors, hire us, or fire us. Some corporations simply won't even consider us, if our name shows up in these places (I know that the one I worked for was obsessed with brand protection, and would not consider folks that they believed would not reflect well on their brand).

That also goes for posting attacks; no matter how "genteel," in places like this very forum. I generally avoid getting into pissing matches with folks, hereabouts.

I have the 50mm 1.4 from Canon and it's gorgeous. I also have a 50mm Summicron on my old Leica IIIf and it could have been made yesterday.
50mm was pretty much the only lens I used for ages when I was shooting film. I had an old Pentax KX SLR (like the K1000 but with a few more bells & whistles), and a regular f/1.7 50mm manual focus lens -- and I loved it. Shot rolls and rolls of film.

I highly recommend shooting old-school like this, as practice. After a while, you stop needing to meter, even, because you understand the light conditions and can pre-emptively configure the camera to do exactly what you want. Then, focus and shoot.

The other thing shooting on film taught me is that one perfect photo is better than 100 bad ones. I find that digital photography natives tend to rely on burst features in an attempt to capture the right moment. But in my experience, especially with portraiture, waiting and then grabbing the precise moment can produce better results.

> The early boot process (SBI) was standardized years ago, and widely deployed in current hardware.

>

> Late boot process (UEFI on RISC-V) was standarized early this year, ahead of relevant hardware (servers, laptops, workstations).

UEFI was standardized for ARM many years before hardware arrived. It didn't matter. It was widely ignored.

As long as we have to use U-Boot and use DTs provided by the OS instead, we're going to be in the same mess that ARM is in. The key is that UEFI needs to be so cheap to integrate by default that nobody can use the excuse of "low end" to avoid UEFI. I have a feeling that's not what's happening in RISC-V.

> ISA Profiles standard 2022 is in public review right now, and will likely be effective before the year ends.

The ability to chop up the ISA is going to have ugly side-effects for development and support of RISC-V. Various ISA profiles and modes already result in different psABIs, which flips the idea from an extensible ISA to a fragmented one.
It was surprising the amount of AV related gear that was multimode specific! The cost differential has dropped so much now you can run either at low cost so if you have the space you can run both.

MM is easier to do mechanical splices on, and does seem to be overall less sensitive to damage. If your need is 10G and less than 300m it works well.

As an aside I ran a USB over fiber repeater that was multimode specific by accident I used a single mode fiber (same LC connector), and it worked perfectly.
One thing I realized pretty quickly as a parent was how little control I have over my kid. Eventually, my kids will have space whether I like it or not. The challenge is giving the tools and experience to make good decisions within boundaries. They need to be able to think for themselves. It's anything but laissez faire nor is it authoritarian.

It's frustrating to me that a lot of people only seem to be able to think in terms of whichever of those extremes they dislike the most.

It's also important to understand that it's impossible to inoculate your kids against all possible life-altering bad decisions. Part of being a parent is always having a view towards how to support your children going forward, whatever their changes circumstances, without denial or enablement. That might make the difference between one bad decision and a years long chain.

You don't have to use a service mesh. What you describe is not a service mesh.

I would rather death than life in prison, much less life with years of solitary mixed in. I don't understand how the inmates deal with it, or why many prefer to live such an awful existence compared to a quick end.

Life in prison, especially an American prison sounds like its own form of hell. All of my energy would go into "checking out" if I found myself in that situation. It's not worth living at that point.

> What about justice for the society in which the crime took place?

This for me is one of the strongest arguments against the death penalty. If the state can kill its prisoners and the state's government falls into authoritarian hands, one political faction, the authoritarian faction, can simply kill off those who oppose it. Did the accused commit a crime, a "crime", or do nothing at all? Well, too late to find out.

Of course, an authoritarian government can bring back the death penalty, but at least make it harder for them to hide what they are doing. And the longer your nation goes without the death penalty, the more egregious it is when the authoritarians reinstitute it, the more obvious it is what they're doing.
Statistically, criminality decreases significantly with age. Particularly around middle age people's likelihood of committing a crime decreases drastically. It doesn't make a lot of sense in my opinion to have someone in prison at 50 for something they did at 18. But life without parole is currently the alternative to capital punishment.
A screen reader user can read all the information in a decent online menu way faster than having a Domino's employee read it to them. A customer who is deafblind or is blind and has a speech disability would need to use a TTY relay service, which makes it even slower.
