this makes me sad I have bought and used NUCs for our company for almost every single generation since the beginning

You say “preferred” alot in your post.

Did a leader in your organization ask you to switch tooling and you declined?

I work in an organization where we cut deployment bugs in angular by a shocking 40% by consolidating our teams tooling into a consistent set of standards. If a developer started with us who after hearing this wouldnt agree to conform to those standards we would terminate them as quickly as possible.

really hoping this is a troll…

CREATE READ UPDATE DELETE

a very simple approach to a restful service

this is kindof an incredible innovation that really only impacts like 2500 people in the world.

Came here to share this as well Superset doesn’t have quite the cult following as tableau or other tools but the project has come really far since its inception and is quite robust

Insomnia lead me to go dig into the repo… the average age of 98% of files in node_modules is 10 months old, attached to the commit when most of these files were added to the repo in the first place… so the entire argument is predicated on the changes to 2% of the dependencies

Basically came here to say this. The whole article felt very silly until I was like “oh wait OP stated early on he works at google… yeah seems about right ~closes tab~”

Can I just say I am blown away that archive.org crawls github I mean wow

I would tack on to this and say the post is talking about homelessness restricted to the microcosm of san francisco while John Oliver is trying to discuss it more broadly. the author contends that the “just give them housing” argument is debunked which is true but also not. these types of efforts didn’t succeed in the bay area but helped states like utah and new mexico decrease homelessness to the tune of something like 90%.

this feels somewhat like an unnecessary take down of an exposes that broadly does a good job talking about some of the challenges and solitions.

our company does M&A tech evaluation for companies and every now and then we run into medical software companies, the results more often than not are sad for everyone. Our experience has been that the companies are generally very well tooled up and organized to have conversations with HIPAA auditors where if we weren’t part of the evaluation they would be free and clear. But because we are in the conversation and because of our evaluation methods (most of which are hands on, fun fact most HIPAA auditors will never touch your system in any way) we generally end up with results that show companies have over invested in business process teams and under invested in best in class engineering to bring that business process to market in an industry best process kind of way.

I throw pottery and give 100% of it away

Telling an employee they have no opportunity for vertical growth in an org typically results in negative consequences.

This is totally it, putting a team member through rejection without giving them a growth plan and telling them you want them to succeed or grow basically gives them a map to the door

Agreed on some digging Culdesac is very clearly just a “rebranded apartment complex” their units are only for rent nothing like a stand alone house is available and as far as the retailers/restaurants the ones listed will occupy the only spaces built for that purpose… its an apartment complex

Good friend of mine once fat fingered something like: sudo chown -R 777 /

This isn’t actually true its just not well documented in the documentation it implies you need power shell then the actual instructions for doing it in the azure console are just lower on the page

I’m the Founder of a sub 20 person company and you are right about tableau but also completely wrong about your view. The problem with your tool is anyone who will find this useful can also just solve this problem with JavaScript.

Additionally I think you fell pray to a mistake i my self made about 8 years ago. I built a product thought it was amazing tried to turn it into a company and completely failed. In one of my final meetings about the project someone said “you know you just reinvented Apache yarn here right?... and not in a good way” I had no idea what they were talking about I left the meeting and started power googling they were right 80% of our code was pointless and missing 90% of the features of a pretty generic open source project.

Today I red team any idea I have by assuming someone solved it and I just haven’t found it yet. I ask the smartest people I know “what does this idea feel like?” Before I build anything...

If I could go back in time and tell you one thing it would be “while you may feel like you are fixing excel 100% of your features are in the developer docs for google sheets... a free product”

This may not be relevant to your case but I don’t see it mentioned.

I have worked with several large tech companies where I did not sign the non compete. I didn’t bring it up as an issue but I very clearly didn’t sign or otherwise initial the paper work. Strangely I have never once had one of those companies come back and ask me why I didn’t sign it.

I think that companies try to get what they can out of you.

What this person said! ^

almost all of the mentioned issues have solutions out their but the author is jumping around the stack with no sense of true purpose. How does graphql impact your SPA updating views, it doesn’t..

Start shorting eBay a massive part of their business has been based on taking advantage of this

Can I turn off political posts from my relatives?

You know something I am surprised isn't being brought up is the failed Accenture infrastructure rebuild

https://www.theregister.com/2019/04/23/hertz_accenture_lawsu...

not so much the money aspect of this, but instead worth knowing that Hertz had massively eol ready digital infrastructure in need of being replaced.

One has to wonder if this failure created a disruption to business cadence that put them in a particularly weakened state facing these times.

you know what always grinds my gears... the fact that everyone stops short of reminding the normals that litigation in private aviation lead to the fact that the final Cessna 152 was produced in 1985

I turned on a POC of a platform on AWS last month that stood up 30,000$ worth of AWS spend for it self... now where near this but the ease with which it came online was terrifying

Waterless urinals

I thought about this some.... if the company agrees to publish it as foss you could always fork the project back later.

Given some responses to this I will happily clarify. If you are in the united states the state you live in will have a state bar website where you can find attorneys in your area that specialize in different types of law. A number of people here have talked about the idea of talking to an IP lawyer. I think in this case I would recommend talking to an employment attorney. Most attorneys will give you an initial consult for free and then tell you what it would cost to move forward.

Always always always talk to a lawyer. If your dog walker (at the peak of their career) friend was like “I need a website” you wouldn’t be like “learn JavaScript” you would say find a programmer. If I had 10 dollars for every time I had to spend weeks convincing an engineer friend to talk to an attorney and then when they finally did it got dealt with in 30 minutes... Lawyers are just “full stack law architects” do your self a favor

The timing of some of this feels disingenuous... it wasn’t that long ago Facebook completed their graph API migration... functionally their is not a “platform separation” any more their are just different labels on Facebook APIs this change is now heavily reflected in dev tools... Facebook will simply argue that any disentanglement would have high impact to business and move on with their day. The people who work for the government and do this stuff know enough about how platforms work to know that the time to do this was over a year ago before this huge shift was locked in.

Came here basically to say this you will also find that well architected HBase/Big Table often work this way as well

I mean this is fundamentally untrue JWT is the underlying standard for Oauth2.0 so its something that is worth understanding even if you don't plan to utilize it.
