But you can't have the cake and eat it too. We can't expect every company to maintain native apps for every platform and a website on top of that; not relying on 3rd party packages and instead to write everything themselves. Maintaining all that, they're bound to f-up at some point and expose vulnerabilities.

> The takeaway here is this: we should all learn from early-Google's example. When employees feel truly valued (which is rare!), it creates psychological safety, high morale, productivity, and creativity. Early employees would often encourage each other to "fail fast" as a means to innovation, but that's no longer easy in an environment where failure implies a layoff. If you're someone building a company, challenge yourself to value employees above all else, then watch and be amazed at the ROI.

This paragraph (which is the ending one) feels like it is contradicting the rest of the article. Because if those things really led to an awesome ROI, then Google would not be where it is now, but in a much better position than before. I guess?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against valuing employees above everything else, but if this becomes too extreme maybe it's normal that the company creates too much fragmentation? For example, why did Google create both Go and Dart? Shouldn't they converge into one? (Shouldn't Flutter have been written in Go?) And I'm sure there are more examples like this (e.g. we can talk about Fucshia...).

I would argue that they made a really good early bet with Steam which rakes in enough profit that they can keep this (or whatever) mindset. They never really had competition in the PC space. If they would need to come up with new and better products each fiscal year they would look very different.

I agree, Facebook is generally lacking in intelligence.
Well, in my city there are few of these, but lots of low-paid workers removing leaves with rakes -- collecting them in piles, then in plastic bags, and finally into trucks, to the landfill I suppose.

The bigger problem is fighting with the fallen leaves. Leaves attract earthworms that actually process them and fertilize soil. Without them, soil is getting empty.

But still, in many cities go this vicious circle of making a lot of landscape care work that destroys it and needs a lot more work: agressively cut the grass + remove leaves -> poor soil -> bare ground without grass -> mud after rains washed on sidewalks & roads + need to bring fertile earth and seed the grass again.
That doesn't work for me. I want a conversation, not an announcement. My experience in chat is I post something "BTW ... " and it's crickets. Quite often no response. I feel unappreciated and like I wasted everyone's time. (maybe I did? but my experience at all previous work-from-office companies was I was well liked)
Even if there is a response it may be hours later which is not what I'm looking for. It's the conversation that sparks ideas and understanding for me.

My experience in the sync up meeting is it's too formal. When I meet in real life people have conversations, 2-3 people per. In the sync meetup, 12 people wait for one person.

So at least for me, it doesn't work.
I'm not sure if F#'s implementation is good enough. The specification [1] suggests that it doesn't do any additional normalization to the resulting identifier, so otherewise identical identifiers with a single space, a single tab and two spaces would be different.

If you have such understating people they'd have no issues understanding that there are two systems of coordinates in the new format just like in PDF (reader page vs writer page / absolute page vs writer page)

But you don't need to duplicate it, all I was saying is PDF as exists has no benefits here.

Also, speaking of columns, when you reflow page to fit the narrow screen, you can simply make the same page longer instead of splitying, then you can have your same single writer page number. Basically, it's a non-issue for format comparison purposes, you can make UI whatever you like (unless it's PDF where nothing can reflow)
It gets even worse: my end of my block alone (in pricey Cambridge, MA), has multiple properties that routinely use multiple gas leafblowers at once, and gratuitously.

One apartment building sometimes gets three workers using big backpack gas leafblowers simultaneously.

One house on a small lot seems to pay two workers to walk around it with gas leafblowers, going on for ages, like they're charging by the person-hour.

Another apartment building -- which seems to use a leafblower as a way for someone to kill time, just waving it around the asphalt, while the property is shabby-utilitarian -- switched to an electric for awhile... (which wasn't as bad as gas ones, but had a high-pitched component to the sound, like maybe metal parts scraping, which I'd guess was pretty hard on the operator's hearing).

Random other leafblowers on and off throughout each day, for maybe 3/4 of the year, not just fall.

I recently tried leaving neighborly notes to the property owners with the worst leafblower problems, and might have to refresh that again in the spring, if I don't move first. Or take my busybody-ness to the next level, and try lobbying local government officials for bans on leafblowers, and on the other main unnecessary noise pollution sources.

I grew up with a father who is/was an owner and director of a company that produces manufacturing printing rollers (gravure printing), mostly for packaging industry. He always competed against others on quality and flexibility as he couldn't on size, so having the best kit was important. The technology, even though the product is a discardable piece of packaging, is on NASA/CPU manufacturing level.

Even though, I myself was never involved directly in it, nor am I today, I know from him there were several trends:

1) Printing companies in Europe and elsewhere got bigger. What use to be 10 printing companies, now it's 1.

2) Equipment manufacturers for that industry got bigger. What use to be 4,5 equipment manufacturers in EU/USA, now there is one.

3) Lasers. Lasers got to a level where they can compete and surpass mechanical removal on quality and speed. This is true also for industry I'm in.

I think a missing context here is that this is aimed at people who work with VFX and other forms of computer-made images; and even more in context of "what should your authoritative master format for archival purposes be".

What is this weird fantasy that programming looks like this? It's always the same: a couple of people, always of diverse backgrounds, physically interacting, usually pointing and laughing at something, with perhaps another group, representing different demographics, looking on with a mixture of curiosity and awe.

Do an image search for programming to see more examples of this.

I guarantee this work was the result of guys sitting at desks, possibly in the dark, thinking. Are we collectively embarrassed that this is what programming looks like? Or are these just fantasies of management types who have never written a line in their lives?

The difference is that for a single family home people have other ways to get out alive. Someone could easily survive a drop out of a second story window and ropes (or today ladders like this one https://www.homedepot.com/p/Kidde-Fire-Escape-Ladder-2-Story...) make single family homes with only one stairwell pretty safe.

That doesn't work when you're got people trapped in a six-story tenement. International Building Code requires the second stairway only for buildings higher than three stories which seems like a good idea considering that the median height leading to death is about 4 to 5 storeys.

Commercial users do not like electric equipment because they discharge fast and do not have the means to recharge it between jobs. The solution there is to bring more charged batteries, but those as well as the charging stations for multiple batteries are costly.

Electric equipment can also not be used if there's rain, and the batteries are not resilient to cold.

I really sucked at math-A which was considered by some as not even real math. I will definitely check this one out and hope to improve this even now in my 40'ies..

The origins of Etruscans is lost to history but it's not like they spontaneously materialized in central Italy and stayed there for eons.

Most of the other peoples in Europe stem from migration of people of Indo-European descent, coming in several waves, from the south (via Anatolia) and from the north.

Groups of people moved around, settled and over time slowly diverged between each other, forming a cultural and linguistic continuum where each group of people spoke a dialect barely different from their neighbors but gradually diverging more as the distance increases.

Then some groups moved around even more (pushed by various environmental factors) breaking the continuum and introducing more stronger distinctions as a group became in contact with another group that was farther away in the cultural-linguistic continuum. The starker differences between a group and its neighbors accelerate the independent evolution of the linguistic traits.

Repeat the mix several times and you end up with producing a huge variety of distinct languages that are no longer mutually intelligible between each other.

Yet ateast in principle it's possible to trace back the genealogy of each of the languages and it reveals that the journey of a group of people in a piece of land is radically different from a group of people living right next to it.

I'm going to focus on languages because that's my area or interest. It roughly correlates with the culture and ethnic identifications but it's not a perfect match and in particular it doesn't necessary correlate strongly with the actual ethnicities (or genetics) because when groups mix the degree of genetic mixing and linguistic mixing varies. For example it's not uncommon that a group conquers another group, imposing their language and culture over them but the conquered group remains relatively unmixed (non-intermarried) with the conquerors.

For example most of the ancient groups in pre-roman Italy peninsula share a common "Italic" origin. That includes Oscan, Latin, Faliscan, Ligurian, Venetic and other Celtic languages of cisalpine Gaul.

But some like Messapic, native to southern italy, while still being of Indo-European origin, don't belong to that same branch. Nor it's related to the Greek of the other side of the Adriatic. Whether that's because of a later migration or because of a previous wave, I don't know (nor I know if it's known).

But the existence of that case (as many other cases) is a showcase how the idea that Etruscans are related with other groups somewhere else in the Mediterranean basin (or even in Anatolia) is not such a crazy idea.
I don't know what to say about this subject, not having been subjected to it (and also having a lawn and sometimes considering getting a (battery-powered) blower). I found this part of the article annoying in a misleading bad-sciency kind of way, though:

The rest is emitted as toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), two of the main ingredients in ground-level ozone, which both trigger asthma attacks and contribute to premature death.

I know ground-level ozone is bad news, but it's still just O3 so there is no way any organic compounds are ingredients in it. Perhaps they play a part in the formation of ozone (I'm no chemist) but then say that.

I had to look it up, and the US Environmental Protection Agency says [1]:

[Ground-level ozone] is created by chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOC). This happens when pollutants emitted by cars, power plants, industrial boilers, refineries, chemical plants, and other sources chemically react in the presence of sunlight.

So that sounds about right then, and was a very quick search away.

If you’re in a business still in control of your own destiny, you could do what we did and keep a weather eye out for sociopathy-aligned behaviours and gently work them out while minimising danger.

It worked reasonably well at one place I was at for about 8 years, estimating one of those characters popping up every 200-500 hires.

It’s the strategic side to your internal integrity function. Typically recruit folks who are lightning rods for these kinds of behaviours: young, female, brown, queer members of staff - don’t forget reception annf cleaning personnel! - and train them (often not necessary!) to spot abuse of power, bullying, threats and gaslighting and to confidentially report it.

Catch people with these behaviours early and divert the smart ones, fire the dumb ones. Sure, you’ll lose your next CEO, but did you want to work for that kind of person?

Fuck BAP and all these people with ASD who don't have it severe and end up being in denial, proposing masking and "getting over it" and other tough boy talk.

If you got diagnosed with ASD, you have ASD and there are tons of false negatives out there (undiagnosed people) as well as those claiming they're true positive (in reality undiagnosed, they may very well have ASD in some form, or not). It is also possible you have misdiagnosed false positives. Psychopaths, for example, could very well benefit from such.

I know I am not the latter. I know I have empathy, and when I don't, it is likely because of overstimulation otherwise. I recognize this in my children as well. My mother's late best friend (geez, typing this makes me realize how much I miss her) who was different in life as status quo in a way irrelevant to this discussion described my kids when tbey were very young as "friendly". A simple thing to say, but her observation was so aptly sound, I shluld remind myself about it more often next temper tantrums.
> How did you have regenerative braking on a non-electric BMW 5?

Just because the EV-brigade gave it a fancy name doesn't mean they invented it. ;-)

The non-electric synonym to regenerative braking is the combined effects of engine braking and/or tyre friction.

I frequently use it myself, for example when I'm approaching a known reduction in speed limit and its safe to do so (in the context of traffic distance behind me) I will disable the cruise control and let the car slow itself down in a relatively short distance.

After a short while you can do that sufficiently accurately so you reach the exact speed limit by the time you reach the sign post.

EV's basically do the same thing. The "regenerative" part is a bit overhyped IMHO it won't magically recharge your battery, maybe add 5–10% over the course of hours if you're lucky with the electron gods. The laws of physics still apply in an EV, unfortunatley.

Yes you might try to argue that EV regenerative braking slows you down faster. But the more aggressive nature is a double-edged sword ... aggressive slowing down with close following traffic, for example, is a recipe for easily avoidable disaster.

Learning grade school math won’t really help you understand these things. Yes, you will learn to think numerically and practice applying opaque algorithms, but you’d be better off starting with basic set theory and logic and learning “real” math. Book of Proof is one of my personal favorites. Then you can move onto some Real Analysis while brushing up on Calculus, then maybe consider formal probability starting to learn the foundations
