I dont care if Porsche collect data on my driving style to improve their cars.

Car manufacturers will see how ineffective and dangerous the ABS/ESP can be in some situations, just like flappy paddle gear boxes still need a clutch pedal to engage the clutch when driving over low grip situations like oil, ice, snow and rain, and the car gets out of shape, because few are perfectly balanced.

Dipping the clutch to bring the car under control and pointing in the direction you want to travel is essential in these situations.

Here [1] Misha could have dipped the clutch or knocked the gears up from 4 to 5 or 6, to prevent the engine and rear wheels acting like a hand brake.

Whats also interesting to note is the traction didnt kick in for a second or two, once he was already getting more side ways.

Now I know the Mercedes AMG have had their traction control setup for at least a decade with drift mode tolerances, but in this situation, the traction should have cut in more quickly to bring the speed down and apply the front brakes only.

So whilst the driver waits for the traction to kick in, having a clutch peddle to dip is the next best thing if the flappy paddle gear box cant knock the gearbox up a couple of higher gears quickly enough, even being able to change the brake bias quickly on the fly like in rally cars could help.

Its also why when a car gets sideways, it invariably leaves skid marks on the road before a crash. Some people are capable of driving with faster reaction times than the systems can react.

I know this because I've had to switch my traction control off "mid situation" to avoid a crash and now as a default switch mine off religiously when driving.

I object to the data being shared, just like the UK Govt shares the names and addresses of every person who is eligible to vote with people who stand in a parliamentary election when they can stump up a £500 deposit which is far cheaper than any mailing list! Makes me wonder about the Monster Raving Loony Party!

And other entities can also get this data which shows the law is not fit for purpose in some areas in todays day and age.

So there should be a default data cant be shared unless opting in imo.

> that wasn't your original argument.

Yes it was, there was absolutely no shift in subject matter between the two posts. “Hollowing out” is a thing that the company is doing to itself, and has (frequently) very little to do with its employees themselves. You have that equally as much with random mass layoffs as you do with intentional mass employee resignations. The company has done something intentional to cause an exodus which is largely random in nature, and is invariably along lines that has only a dimly vague association with an employee’s competence.

We saw that with some very prominent mass layoffs in Silicon Valley in early 2023, where employees of all kinds were sacked regardless of skill level, experience, and employability. It’s no different when employees as a whole reach a breaking point and initiate a wave of resignations - those with the means and resources to either immediately quit or be rapidly re-hired elsewhere will do so, those without those means will linger on and cling to the job.

> I wish we could simply respect the choices of an individual and not assume their aptitude because of their views on work from home.

Quit sticking additional meaning and intent where there is absolutely none. I never insinuated this, never had that as an objective, and took pains to keep the target on the company.

So let me re-iterate: Those remaining from Grinder’s mass loss of employees are most likely either people who would have difficulty getting rapidly hired elsewhere due to lower skill levels, or people who have been “locked into” their employment by whatever means and are therefore under a significant disadvantage of choice regardless of their actual skill level. Those that left would have seen the abusive and toxic behaviour of the company for what it is, and chose to execute their much more available options by seeking employment at a less hostile employer.

There just isn’t any other way to phrase this.

> it's certainly tonedeaf when you consider properly funding your kids as "desperate"

Capitalism as is implemented in America makes such desperation a key aspect of its existence. The cruelty of such desperation IS THE POINT OF CAPITALISM: desperate employees will accept lower wages and more abusive employers, who will cut more corners and squeeze their workforce ever more tightly for concessions in order to maintain those obscenely fat profit margins flowing upward to the Parasite Class.

So, “tone deaf”?? To paper over such cruelty-based objectives of Capitalism so as to not offend, is to foster ignorance by omission and is an epithet flung in the faces of the desperate for their crime of being that desperate. I consider ignorance by far the greater offence, and will gladly be “tone deaf” all day long where this subject is concerned. I will gleefully ram such “tone deafness” down the throats of everyone who refuses to acknowledge such inequalities by making it viscerally uncomfortable for them to ignore those inequalities.
I'm referring to the situation where a synchronous wait consumes the thread pool, preventing any further work.

A is sychrounously waiting B which is awaiting C which could complete but never gets scheduled because A is holding onto the only thread. Its a very common situation when you mix sync and async and you're working in a single threaded context, like UI programming with async. Of course it can also cause starvation and deadlock in a multithreaded context as well but the single thread makes the pitfall obvious.

As is a pattern in your replies you continue being either horribly ignorant or just downright malicious, neither of which is surprising from someone who uses CSAM as a shield for censorship. If you think for even an iota of a second that properly worn surgical masks are comparable to the cheap slapped-on masks that were worn during the pandemic, then you’re genuinely not worth discussing this with. Not to mention you didn’t even actually interface with any of previous reply, namely the very first reference I used which already discredited this ignorance.

The most effective way to get this changed would be to identify the cars used by every US senator, and then write them letters pointing out that their cars have granted a sometimes-foreign corporation permission to record every conversation they have, keep a file on who they meet, and document their sexual activities. This is standard espionage tactics, and as awareness of it should be spread in Washington DC in particular.

I love my Logitech K380 bluetooth keyboard (https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/keyboards/k380-multi...) I've had it for years and even though it is of course battery powered, I haven't needed to change the battery yet.

It's small, inexpensive, comfortable, quiet, and it allows me to easily switch between my work and personal laptop. If only those buttons could switch my mouse at the same time, it'd be perfect.

The 'battery degrades and you have to throw your keyboard away' argument is poor, but unfortunately all too true these days.

Just make the battery easily replaceable.

The real reason is just that wireless is not that necessary for desktops - the keyboard is always just there. Why bother with flaky wireless, battery anxiety and charging etc, when you can just leave it wired.

Personally I have a wireless keyboard because I use it with my laptop, and I move from place to place with them - having to plug/unplug each time would be even more a pain than the occasional recharging.
Unthankfully, the definition is so vague as to be totally useless from a programming perspective. Avoid invoking UB, or all hell breaks loose. [0]

Separately, I don't think their point was that they were speaking as a layman, but rather that the loose definition they gave is historically accurate, easier to reason about, and what a working programmer not versed in the nuances of UB would expect. The fact that UB has its current definition is indicative of "undefined [getting] lost somewhere."

I think what the GP comment is conveying is the cultural factor of a PPT. It’s not good for information communication when not paired with a human being giving the presentation that would say those sentences shown in bullet form. If you have the human, writing full sentences on a slide deck that they just read out is the worst.

But the cultural factor is you signalling “I want to PRESENT something to you”. It implies this is a pitch, and you’re only seeing the notes. It’s a way to say “come talk to me”.

The information density being so low is kind of a feature.

I used to use a similar approach, in my case: KeepassXC + Google Drive. My problem though is that I got tired of the issues KeepassXC had when saving the database into the mounted Google Drive filesystem provided by Gnome (GVFS, from the top of my head). Basically, sometimes it failed, other times the database would be saved with a different name which was annoying, because then, when using Keepass on my phone or my other computer, I had to be searching for the most recent database file. After months of internal debate and research, I ended up migrating everything into Bitwarden. Despite the paranoid in me has days of "what the hell did you do!", everything has been great so far and it has simplified my workflow nicely.

Well, in the context of a company and WFH policies discussion, work means paid work. This is not some talk about men vs women work, it includes women working at Grindr or any company or business.

As for home-related tasks, those are not "women's work" either, as they can be performed by men or women or even robot assistants, they're not paid work. They're also of course performed by themselves by most people living alone, anyway, and they're usually still not considered work in the business sense unless they involve paid staff. Asking a person living alone "what you do for work" they aren't going to mention that they do the dishes and wipe the floor at home, they're going to mention their Uber gig or cubicle job.

The problem is we’re looking at the correct predictions only. He’s a broken clock, he "predicted" numerous earthquakes in various regions and only a small number ended up true.

> The idea that planetary alignments can predict earthquakes has been long rebuffed by scientists. The USGS has stated that neither it nor any other scientist is able to predict a specific earthquake, but that it can calculate the probability of future temblors. Andrew Michael, a geophysicist for the agency, called alignment-based predictions "easy to refute" in a statement sent to Snopes.

Not trust their AdWords and look for alternatives.

Not trust GCP and use aws and azure.

Not trust new products.

Google’s brand is interconnected and it’s shortsighted of them to think “it’s just a few thousand inconvenienced.”

Imagine if Whole Foods also had a product line that sold caviar and they swapped it out for dog shit and they didn’t care because it only affected a few thousand customers. It’s not the number of customers that are important, it’s the reflection of the organization.

It’s deontology vs utilitarianism. Trying to do spot based utilitarian calculations without considering what principles lead to overall good is a stupid thing for an org to do.

Putting any personally important email account in the hands of some huge corporate provider is pretty much always a recipe for eventual problems.

Although big companies also have some leeway to steal domains (and the associated email addresses) from small companies and hobbyists, so just trying to keep your email to yourself doesn't solve everything.

Of course, that nearly every domain anyone wants is taken already is also a bane on us caused by a big company - Network Solutions, the privatized descendant of the Internic, as they realized their old rule of one entity / on domain didn't have to be followed, and blithely made their first evil sale of 80-odd domains to some household name drug company that wanted a domain for each common ailment or something. The idea of saving readable domains for future generations went right out the windows once someone waved money under their nose (and they didn't use that money to improve their UX for over a decade), and now virtually all registers are shills for shoving domains you don't need down your throats. Ugh. At least the old Internic had ethics.

Just like Google had the do-no-evil motto - somehow I doubt that's still a thing. Good luck getting a lost email account of them - they didn't give my Google phone number back even though the system still knows it's mine.
