"What we are seeing now and predicting into the future is the rise of site reliability engineer as a title relating to the practice of DevOps and better describing the work to be done. At the time of our writing, there are more than 9,000 open roles for SREs on LinkedIn, a number that is only growing."

"Seibel, in an interview with The Information Monday, deflected those complaints, suggesting some came from people who prefer “superelite groups.” He shed light on how the accelerator adjusted to the year’s upheaval, including encouraging founders to focus on breaking even rather than growth at all costs, and showed how the recent graduates resembled earlier founders who had set up companies in a crisis."

"The average company loses more than 20% of its productive power to organizational drag. Put Slack in the picture though and development teams using Slack deliver 5% more output overall, with 23% faster time to market, 27% less time needed to test and iterate, and faster identification and resolution of engineering-related bugs, according to IDC research."

"The Dev Console is a simple and popular REPL that millions of programmers use every day, but, what many don't know, is that this simple interface is the basis for one of the best ways to program that reaches far beyond the browser. REPL-driven programming, for those who know, is a subtle programming superpower."

It sounds like it is more of a warning "you are in our way" device? "For long-distance hail and warning, especially during maritime security, the GLARE® LA-9/P combines a powerful green beam with Eye Safe® technology. The laser rapidly determines if an unintended observer is within the nominal ocular hazard distance (NOHD) and immediately shuts off the glaring output to prevent accidental eye injury. Once the bystander has moved out of the NOHD, the laser output instantly resumes."

not often. the titles can be interesting, but the format can be long and difficult to decipher. instead i often default to the executive summaries of industry reports and white papers. it's more operational and less theoretical i find.
