Yeah, I was surprised that the article didn't mention the elephant in the room here. Not sure if the 2020 figure already reflects the effect of Covid, but (purely anecdotally) my job satisfaction and engagement was also higher in 2020/2021 than today. That probably had something to do with the novelty of working from home, finding out that it's possible to do your job well without two hours of commuting, and also the expected economic downturn that didn't actually materialize. After ~2022, return to office mandates and layoffs worked "hand in hand" to drive my job satisfaction down. The article mentions that "Engagement fell in the finance and insurance, transportation, technology, and professional services sectors" - except for transportation, these are mostly office jobs, so probably had similar experiences...

- understand as much about the product as possible, primarily from a user point of view

- meet as many different verticals as possible and understand how they work

- speak with all other senior PMs and tech leads and understand their workflows

You're going to be working with multiple teams and stakeholders and it's crucial you have a mental map of how everyone's workflow is. You also will have an 'outsiders' view for the first 30-90 days as you look at the product with fresh eyes. Use this to drive insights for the product if applicable.

Lastly, don't ever stop customer meetings. It may not be on the agenda for other Senior PMs, but don't let that stop you. Customer meetings will keep your insights fresh and valid.
Between the assassination in Canada [1] and attempted assassination on U.S. soil [2], there is international curiosity about (and default sympathy for) a group most previously didn’t know existed.

(There may have also been awareness in the American and Canadian Sikh communities that they need to educate their fellow countrymen about who they are and why they’re the subject of what looks like a new form of state-sponsored terrorism.)

I don't actually think that is a bad thing.

The TSA screening at airports would be vastly better if TSA maintained a "red team" that regularly tried smuggling guns (or water bottles or whatever) into airports. The agents would be more attentive if the number of incidents they dealt with was large enough that they could practice more often. The system could improve if it had actual feedback on how accurate and effective it was. And instead of agents overreacting or underreacting they could tune their responses to an appropriate level.

The same applies to supply chain attacks. The REAL ones are rare, dangerous, and performed by experts; having a chance to practice catching them, to assess our detection rates, and to adjust our reactions is healthy.

Having read your post:

* Vanilla PHP can't read anywhere near the same RPS as the others

* Using those results in removing the ability to use a large amount of the ecosystem. While if you used the correct language you would be able to use it's entire ecosystem.

* In my opinion, if you're using workerman or Swoole you've already realised the limitations of PHP and should be using another language.

This seems like a classic case of "if all you have is a hammer everything looks like nail"

> Might not be as fast as go, but to say these libraries or tech isn't production-ready is rather naive.

This strawman argument. Firstly, you admit my original point. Secondly, those aren't the tech in question and I notice you left off the tech in question. Roadrunner, FrankenPHP, etc. All the tooling that can make your average PHP app go faster.

> And for a couple with good jobs and without kids taxes bite really hard, purchasing power is not the one expected from top earners. Add rising mandatory medical and retirement insurance costs. This is just not good.

About this, as I try to hire employees, I absolutely hate our tax code. DCAP is painfully low (5k). I really wish we could find a way to allow employers to offer pretax benefits and directly provide childcare as a fringe benefit.

But you're 100% right, mandatory take a maximum chunk and workers should have lower taxes.
I think there’s a way you could do this ethically, but personally I believe that the way you are implementing this is unethical. Obviously you are much more familiar with what you’re doing than I am, and I’d be happy to be convinced otherwise. But I think at the very least you could work on your messaging about this but there are a few things I noticed and raised yellow flags:

1. Primarily, you seem to mention winning your lawsuit and legal battle with the VA a lot to justify what you’re doing, but just because what you’re doing is legal does not make it ethical. I do not believe the FOIA was ever intended to be used to expose an API for accessing veterans’ medical records, and even if it did intend to do that for some reason, it would still be wrong to make that data completely available to the public.

2. Your framing of your legal battles with the VA gives me the impression that you are seeking to be vindictive or spiteful with your Fax-API. It’s hard to believe you are doing this because you care about Veterans when you’re actively forcing the VA to expend what I imagine must be considerable time and resources to comply with your requests. Maybe you do have a justifiable vendetta against them but I don’t see how this makes them any better.

3. Some of this data is so recent and potentially damaging that there seems no way to justify making it accessible to the public because of how it benefits genealogy or historians.

All that said I do genuinely believe that this could be an amazing resource for historians, genealogists, and people wanting to learn more about their deceased relatives. I just personally believe that when dealing with such sensitive data you have an obligation to treat it more carefully than you seem to be, even if you are justifying it to yourself as “just” making it 1000x easier to access and telling the world exactly how to do it through legal means.
Huh, so it's not giving you full Haskell, but restricted to an API of under 300 functions: https://chrisdone.github.io/hell/api/ Interesting. I guess that's what made this bit possible:

It was easy at the start of this project in early 2024 to say I
like reading the code, because I was the only user. Now, after
reading the code of a few colleagues, I still find it very easy
to read the code.

ie. you don't have to start hoogling library functions to read a new script (while having more sane behaviour than bash).

My main issue with Yet Another Scripting Language is that you have to install it to new systems and you'll find some dependency issue with idunno glibc being the wrong version or arm vs intel etc. (Case in point: https://github.com/chrisdone/hell/releases only has
hell-linux-x86-64bit ) I wonder, could you use this with https://github.com/augustss/MicroHs ? They seem like a good combination, MicroHs being extremely portable, Hell having a restricted API and presumably quite stable dependencies.

I tried using Idea for Scala 3 where indents are meaningful. I prefer size 4 tabs for indents. There were four knobs for adjusting indents and until I adjusted all of them the IDE was messing up my indents in subtle ways. If leading editors have trouble abstracting indentation from its textual representation I have zero hopes for them being able abstract even such simple element of AST as a block.

Maintaining NATO also ensures American hegemony over Europe and potentially the most disruptive global competitor. It may be expensive, but we know that left to their own devices the Europeans are wont to start a war amongst themselves, over some trivial border dispute, and then involve the rest of the world in it. So it's cheaper in American lives and material this way.

Neither. Labor markets are tight. That improves employees’ bargaining power. The time since our last jobs recession means more may choose to trade that leverage for free time versus savings. (I certainly have.)

Woke-ism is a cult.

There is no generally accepted definition of woke, and that is largely by design to mislead others through well known psychological blindspots (Cialdini), towards inducing others to join collectivism while also inspiring disunity and hate, albeit indirectly.

The movement often couches its perspectives in power dynamics which follows elements common to Maoism and Communism, along with many other similar marxist movements. It also has elements from critical pedagogy (the critical turn), which has origins in Marxist movements.

The mind virus part of it is the same with any belief system that lends itself towards irrational delusion, inducing bitter resentment in individuals and falsely criticizing without any rational framework or basis, often ignoring objective reality for a false narrative.

Woke-ism is a cult of the semi-lucid insane brainwashed children they manage to mislead, who desperately try to poorly grapple with reality, miserably, and bitterly, while dragging everyone else down.

Its rather sad for the individuals who become both victim and perpetrator.
There is no cure for insanity, nor the blindness induced.

If you want a rational discussion on this subject matter, I'd suggest checking over James Lindsay's work outing these type of movements. Your description is fairly misinformed.

For me, I don't use LXD, but use Proxmox containers. These are non-root Linux containers by default. Super lightweight compared to a VM. Proxmox makes managing LXC containers a little easier with a UI, compared to managing containers strictly using command line.

If you go this route, create a container template that has everything you want in every instance. And then spin out new containers whenever you need one.

Probably spend a lot of time working out who your company's customers are, what problem they want you to solve and how the company is currently performing at doing that. This can be done together with different people, for example the customers themselves, your sales team, your PM team, customer support team, operations, executives, etc. so that you build up a bit of a network internally. This should give you some good background knowledge for developing your product strategy.

The LSP is limited in scope and doesn't provide access to things like the AST (which can vary by language). If you want to navigate by symbols, that can be done. If you want to know whether a given import is valid, to verify LLM output, that's not possible.

Similarly, you can't use the LSP to determine all valid in-scope objects for an assignment. You can get a hierarchy of symbol information from some servers, allowing selection of particular lexical scopes within the file, but you'll need to perform type analysis yourself to determine which of the available variables could make for a reasonable completion. That type analysis is also a bit tricky because you'll likely need a lot of information about the type hierarchy at that lexical scope-- something you can't get from the LSP.

It might be feasible to edit an open source LSP implementation for your target language to expose the extra information you'd want, but they're relatively heavy pieces of software and, of course, they don't exist for all languages. Compared to the development cost of "just" using embeddings-- it's pretty clear why teams choose embeddings.

Also, if you assume that the performance improvements we've seen in embeddings for retrieval will continue, it makes less sense to invest weeks of time on something that would otherwise improve passively with time.

It's very much tragedy of the commons, but say with the classical example of wells on a combined finite water source, using less water won't make it last longer when you represent a permille of the total consumption, and you are only really hurting yourself by not using it while it still exists. Meanwhile the bottling plant next door pumps half of it for free and sells to back to you with a label that says "save water".

A single vote can change nothing or change everything depending on the overall distribution. If the public opinion is 80% towards one candidate and 20% for the other, even 30% of the votes wouldn't matter. If it's extremely polarized like 50/50 then every vote does indeed make a difference (Gore vs. Bush, topically enough lol). The problem with climate change is that it's more like 95% of people doing nothing cause they just want to live a normal life, and 5% of people trying to do something in a futile way. In the end it doesn't matter if a few million choose to cut down on consumption when the end result is exactly the same in an ocean of billions.

> how do you get a systemic change? By influencing individual voting and consumption behavior.

That's more like a democratic fantasy, believing that most people would even chose to to the right thing if given the option, instead of the most convenient thing.

No, you get it by lobbying key people who have the power to enact change on a massive scale. As you say, corporations only care about legal means and they make sure those means stay in their favor.

One might argue that if enough people can be persuaded to stop using a product (e.g. gasoline) then the production of it will lower, but in lots of cases that's a fallacy as well, since the producer will move against an existential threat to itself with all the means at their disposal, PR, legal, or even less legal. And in a sufficiently large market, any impact a single person can make is again a drop in the ocean.
I agree that the USA is different from Europe in this respect. The invasion on Afghanistan and Iraq was completely wrong, and in the case of Iraq based on falsified information, and the final result was worse than before. And although I'm happy Obama withdrew the troops from Iraq and Biden from Afghanistan, it looks like there simply wasn't an exit plan and responsibility for the people left behind. They had to deal with the consequences of wars waged by Bush under the impulse of 9/11 with no good outcome.

Still, when you look at the perception of war by Americans, starting with Vietnam, you see that people don't like killing. "In the course of the war, there developed in the United States the greatest anti-war movement the nation had ever experienced, a movement that played a critical role in bringing the war to an end." [0] This is a phenomenon that you don't see in Russia where people learned very well that if they want to stay away from big trouble for them and their families, they must not speak out in any way.

> “Woke”, for the most part, is a boogeyman that the conservative right uses as a summary label for various political movements on the left. Basically nobody on the left talks about “woke” except for perhaps a period of six months back in 2017.

There are left-wing critics of "Woke", see for example the African-American Marxist Adolph L Reed Jr – https://newrepublic.com/article/160305/beyond-great-awokenin...

If an unapologetic Marxist is attacking "Woke", that really disproves the contention that it is purely some right-wing bogeyman

Or, consider that the Trotskyist International Committee of the Fourth International published a review of the sitcom Abbott Elementary, which includes the line "In fact, in its treatment of Jacob’s wokeness, Abbott Elementary refreshingly mocks the suffocating trend of racialism in American culture" – https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2022/03/01/abbo-m01.html

Similarly, read their review of John McWhorter's Woke Racism – https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2023/06/14/ihjm-j14.html – in which they largely express agreement with his criticisms of the progressive "woke" ideology, but simultaneously condemn him for making those criticisms from a pro-capitalist instead of anti-capitalist perspective

And see the socialist publication Jacobin's approving review of the philosopher Susan Neiman's book Left Is Not Woke, which attacks "wokeness" from an explicitly left-wing perspective: https://jacobin.com/2024/07/wokeness-left-ideology-neiman-re...
