That's fine, they will eventually have their lunch eaten by companies that can execute with all the talent they refuse to hire. It takes time, but the wheel turns.
My family is from a rural area of Hesse (Waldeck-Frankenberg), spread over many small towns and villages. Very down-to-earth folk. Of course they're religious: lots of them go to church, but certainly not anywhere close to weekly. The vast majority will only go on major christian holidays, a smaller number occassionally when they make up their mind on a weekend. I don't doubt that if I asked, my relatives would however know some people who show up every sunday without fail. Same story for others I know in the former west: my Bavarian acquantainces, others in the south. I don't think there's a German state besides Bremen where I don't know someone.

Currently I live in Berlin - I don't think the situation in the northeast needs explaining.

Is your point that I must be wrong and that ~4 million weekly attendees in fact means 10% of Germans do attend church weekly? Cause if that's the kind of mathematics we're doing this conversation is pointless.

Hello! I'm Clara, a front-end developer with three years of experience, an eye for aesthetics, and a dedication to creating powerful user experiences. I’m passionate about building visually beautiful and easy-to-use interfaces and continuing to hone my development skills. My current role involves lots of collaboration and extensive testing, debugging, and refactoring a legacy codebase to adhere to modern standards and accommodate a growing user base.

Before that, I studied computer engineering at the Universidad Nacional de Cordoba and Full Stack Development at HENRY. I'm looking for an opportunity to expand my skills, embrace new challenges, and build something exceptional. Are you looking for a developer? Let’s connect! Book a time on my Calendly at https://calendly.com/clara-sanchez-dev/30min-intro. I’m eager to learn how my passion and skills can help with the exciting projects you have in store!
Nice to see there is a bit of variety in the world.
I'm a union software engineer at NPR, and we just won guaranteed remote work for three years (pending a ratification vote by the membership). Glad I don't have to worry about shifting fashions among executives on this subject.

What reasons did you find?
That's a narrative pushed by lawyers who are trying to get people out of DUIs.

Yes blood is better but if you blow a .2 no you are not sober.
It's weird because I thought if SBF "belonged" to anyone it was the Effective Altruism and (Internet) rationalist communities that he funded. Those are the folks who seemed most tightly linked to him before the crash, anyway.
That's totally valid, also. I do sometimes miss the office, particularly from when I worked in a healthy office culture, but would want it to be optional.
>people who are inherently skeptical but not particularly bright.

Not like you, of course. You’re so much smarter than the masses right? What an insufferable and ignorant view of the average person.
Video conferencing is miles better than it was 10 years ago. It barely worked even 5 years ago

The thing is, if the government ended all subsidies it would be a much more level playing field for electric competitors to petroleum and Tesla wouldn't have to go hunting for its own subsidies.

That said the article is interesting because to my eyes he's pursuing the same "pull the ladder up" mentality that all the big players do:

> Musk also said he doesn’t believe the US government should be giving out subsidies to expand charging infrastructure

Of course he'd say that (so says my suspicious brain). In 2021 Tesla had a good lock on charging infra. Subsidizing it makes it easier for competitors to get in on it.

Not sure what it means, but in 2023 Tesla's charging standard is becoming closer to "the standard."[1]

Yeah, that's why I don't live in either of those places, being remote for now, and why you could never pay me to live in SF, with the heightened crime, drugs on the street, etc.

Donr neglect the social circle too though, having a family in the middle of nowhere is nice but it doesn't make for having too many friends when younger if not in an area with other young people.
Obviously WFH works better for some individuals and it only works for certain job description.

What's less clear is whether WFH productivity is relatively high because it leverages structures and relationships that were established pre-pandemic, when working from the office was the norm. It'll be interesting to see what the results of studies a few years down the road show, when there's more data and better metrics.
You are basically repeating the same tired paragraphs without even reading what I said. Who is talking about whataboutism here? I was replying to a comment that repeatedly downplayed the Iraq war. Maybe don't do that? You aren't "owning the Russians" by asserting ridiculous and false narratives (like that Iraq wasn't somehow destroyed). I never changed subject, I just called out white washing of the Iraq invasion.
My super noisy family makes me decree the title is not universally applicable
I'm curious - what do you particularly like about Fortran that isn't otherwise broadly available? Is it a matter of cultural idioms, a unique composition of features, or something else entirely?
As the article mentions, this system is unusual, in that it has three Earth-sized planets in its habitable zone.

I think the warm-up cost isn’t really there when the plant is operating continuously.

Oddly for a peaker plant, they built these as combined cycle, which wouldn’t make financial sense if it was to only run for short periods.

A “true” peaker plant is inefficient but with lots of capacity but we basically build a “proper” power plant that has good efficiency, so it’s not too bad. But makes you wonder what went so wrong in the planning (even though the mistake turned out advantageous).
Sure but what are cases where knowing when a random GUID was created is actually an issue of privacy? Every platform I've seen using Snowflakes that exact same data is publicly available.

Honestly I like ipv4 better than v6. I like having a NAT and easy addresses like 192.168.1.3 instead of fe80::210:5aff:feaa:20a2. They didn't need to mess with those things just to expand the address space, like how utf8 didn't require remapping ASCII.
I'm receiving SSL protocol errors via both Chrome and Safari under macOS.
This is happening at the company I’m contracting with. Employees, not contractors, must RTO. Two people on my team literally moved to different states with no company offices during the multi year period of not going to the office.

It’ll be interesting to see how this is handled.
Glad to hear people still care about separation of concerns! It's been so untrendy. Particularly after Tailwind came around.
I think Poe's Law applies here. I can't tell if this is satire of a prickly programmer with zero social skills or understanding of business context or an actual person.

OK you want to work remote. Great, do that. Literally, it's great for you. Some people might not want that, some people might want to run companies where that doesn't happen. Don't work at those places.

But then you get to gems like this:

"If I had to give only one bit of advice to anyone ever faced with an ultimatum from someone with power over them (be it an employer or abusive romantic partner), it would be: Ultimately, never choose the one giving you an ultimatum."

Sure thing buddy. Are we talking about an ultimatum not to send creepy as fuck text messages to female colleagues, or not to start endless flame wars in the slack channel over minute technical bullshit that doesn't matter? Or just this topic? I thought we were generalizing.

"Conversely, if you let these assholes exert their power over you, you dehumanize yourself in submission."

Are we 14? Of course your employer has power over you. You also have power in the equation as well, and you're both very free to walk away or pursue other opportunities. How about just being an adult and negotiating for what you want?
You can refuse, but no, it's not the clever loophole you think it is. The police will obtain a warrant to take a blood draw, which is more conclusive than a breathalyzer.
I think that many people struggle at home (group A) while others don't (group B). RTO helps those who struggle at home (group A). And is a major inconvenience to those who excelled at home (group B) but it doesn't significantly degrade them.

Thus RTO improves group A performance while not affecting group B performance so it looks like a win overall and in a sense it is.

But it is penalizing group B, making their lives inconvenient, and increasing their expenditures.

Working from home is objectively better if your employees are in group B: (1) better for the environment [less transit], (2) leads to better work-life balance [no time lost to commute, more flexible work hours], (3) is more cost efficient [no need to rent offices in high cost areas, remote employees can be cheaper as their COL is often lower], (4) lets employees have better homes [because you don't need to be near the downtown core].

I think if you start remote and you measure performance of your employees, you can ensure that you get most group B employees and you can stay remote. The issue is if you started in the office, you have a mix of group B and group A, and RTO will improve the average employee performance, so it makes sense.
Seems like it makes it easier to send your low-needs user shopping on their own. Hey, get a chromebook+, rather than having to go with them or find out where they're shopping and give them a list of ok models to buy.

There have always been chromebooks with better or worse choices of hardware. This selection is certainly good. Personally, I don't shy away from Intel's mainstream core Pentium/Celeron either especially in generations where the core count is the same as i3. But Intel also sells Pentium/Celeron branded atom-series chips that I avoid because of past experience with sluggish systems and reports that they're harder to get 3rd party firmware for (once ChromeOS updates stop happening, I want to be able to put something else on these, if the thing still works)
The hard part is I don’t think there’s a way if they open sourced the server we can verify that what they’re actually running what is in the public repo.

I really enjoy being in the office for so many reasons. The irony is that my job is remote in the sense that my team is in another city, and I only show up to the office because I want to be around people, get free lunch, etc. Previous to this I worked at a "remote-first" company, and despite being focused on remote work, I was never so unproductive because I spent most of my time waiting to connect with other people.

However, I understand why many people do like WFH. I don't understand why this isn't a conversation between the employee and her direct manager? If the direct manager can point to problems with being WFH then I can understand forcing RTO. But if the employee is verifiably productive with good performance ratings, why should she be forced to return to the office?

And this recursively applies all the way up the chain. If a director sees that a manager is falling behind in productivity, then she can drill down on the manager's performance and the performance of the team. But if performance reviews are good, why dictate that someone should be in the office? It's pretty stupid.
What remains from my perspective is that consciousness doesn't exist, everything is just a deterministic machine when isolated and a probabilistic one upon interaction with the external. But we experience consciousness, so we are missing something. Unless you think consciousness is an illusion, and that begs the question, an illusion to whom?

All that remains is an unanswered question. That special spark is what we are trying to pin down and explain and understand, it might not be special or a spark, but we don't know how else to describe it right now.
What do you mean by “must be enough”?

Not being able to support non-latin scripts sounds more like a limitation than a feature to me, although of course in many contexts it’s not in any individual organizations power to overcome it.
As someone who works hands on so I have to work at the office I really wish more people fight to stay home, the commute was so much nicer with people working remote plus the office was much nicer to work in without all the noise and distractions
Tonsky, dude.

I stopped reading your article because of your little websocket experiment.
You're trying to upset the applecart by saying your "framework", which has been developed in relative isolation, is better than the other top 4 contenders. Well, you better have some hard proof of that.

Saying that you don't use lists, isn't helping.
Thanks for the context. That seems to invalidate the idea.
That would work great for people that want to live in a single metro area.

As a remote worker, I'm perfectly happy travelling every so often for in-person meetings and offsites. That's not a problem for me.

There are no large tech companies within 30 minutes of where I live. I don't want to move away from my house or the people I share it with (whose jobs are not portable).
Bitlocker for an equivalent level of security (password at boot) is way more confusing and way more error prone in my experience. I know what I'm looking for and understand all the terms in use and I had to try three times, and lost access to my drive once.

No way in hell would I recommend it to less technical people (except default settings, which works fine but offers near zero security against extremely common things like theft). Bitlocker is by far the least user-friendly OS-provided I've ever seen - it's so bad I have to assume it's being intentionally ruined.
I’ll know this “counter argument” isn’t bullshit when people finally admit they know full well a large portion of people abuse WFH.

Until I see honesty on this, I am uninterested.

No one ever admits:

- I basically work 20-30 hours a week!

- They have no idea when I’m actually working.

- I was going to quit but I’m going to let them just keep paying me.

- I have at least one side job and I won’t be able to do it if I need to go back in.

I know YOU would never do these things. But we all know they occur, frequently.

It’s not a discussion or well reasoned refutation if you are just going to pretend that the issues don’t exist.

EDIT: No. I do not accept “they don’t work in the office either” as a valid argument. For the obvious reasons that at least in the office there is at least a chance to see it. For less obvious reasons like it’s still a body there, and seeing people work around you might make some people want to work. We are pack animals.

All you are doing with the argument that they “don’t work anyway” is telling me they shouldn’t be allowed to WFH or even be employed in the first place. It’s not a good argument.

> we had been surprised to find that a high proportion of hydrogen was present and that its concentration grew as we descended, reaching 20% at 1250 metres down. Such levels allowed us to speculate that at 3000 metres below the ground, hydrogen content could exceed 90%,

Why not speculate further ? Till you reach 100 %.

Hello! I'm Micah, a Product Designer with a background in edTech and biochemical research and a knack for creating lovable designs and interfaces with high business value. For my current role I recently designed a V1 landing page that increased our conversion rates by 60%. I also created several LinkedIn Ad creatives publicizing a new product launch that averaged click-through rates of 7.43%, significantly surpassing the average (most LinkedIn ads average a CTR of 0.39-0.69%).

I’m passionate about creating high-quality products that make a real difference for the people who use them. I’m looking for opportunities to leverage my product and design expertise, dig deeply into user feedback, collaborate closely across multiple teams, and contribute meaningful value to real-world users.

I know several friends who prefer to be in the office because they need some amount of time away from their young kids. It's the equivalent of "them" time where they get an escape from child care for a few hours.
Would you mind humouring me for a moment? I have a strong suspicion (that I can’t prove) that this article was created by a primitive LLM.

I believe that because:

1.) The article presents ‘facts’ that are completely wrong with complete confidence. This alone really seriously smells like an LLM.

2.) Those ‘facts’ are based off of misread quotes from the source pubs. The misreading seems to relate back to words being removed entirely from analysis or else assigned the wrong definition.

I see few signs of human intelligence. What do you think? And for fun, assume the LLM is an adversary. How do we beat it?
You'd require people to work 30 days per month?
Actually many DWI attorneys encourage you to take the breathalyzer, since there are many ways to get those results invalidated in court.
Offer a work location as well, give people the option to have somewhere to go to work if / when they want.
It’s really amazing how many fallback layers there are in a CD to work around errors.

There’s a first Reed-Solomon layer that can theoretically correct 2 errors per 28 byte frame, but they actually only fix 1 error and use the remaing error detection as an erasure code (instead of an error correction code) to make a second layer of Reed-Solomon correction much better due to interleaving.

If that fails, they have the audio samples swizzled in a way so that you can do interpolation between neighboring samples, and if that fails, there was yet another mechanism (that I forgot the details about) for a final effort.

I reminds me a bit of spacecraft, where there’s so much redundancy and flexibility to make things still work in case of a catastrophic failure.

The Galileo spacecraft comes to mind, where they reprogrammed the whole communication mechanism (adding compression etc) after the main antenna failed. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_project#High_gain_an...)
I think that was a risky move, but sometimes you need to take risks to get high rewards, so I agree it's sometimes the best move given your circumstances... I imagine you made the calculation that this was a risk worth taking... do you already know if that is the case? Are your developers "happier"? Customers praising improved performance? More people applying for jobs due to Rust? Fewer bugs? Easier to implement features?
That's what we did. If you actually spent 50% of your CS degree on learning every nlogn sort, then you went to a particularly bad CS program.

Google. It was good even before the pandemic. We used to video call each other between buildings 100 feet apart instead of walking over.
implicit assumption that having things closed one day a week is bad.

It is perhaps less convenient, but that doesn't make it bad. Lived in an EU country until recently, where everything is closed on Sunday. It makes that day much more restful, and it doesn't take long to learn to get your shopping done on Saturday.

Also, it is still illegal to use power tools outside on Sunday. Which means you aren't disturbed by your neighbor's leaf blower.

Honestly, I prefer 1 day a week of true rest over
more convenience but never a true rest.
