Vax VMs used to do that.

Also anything the compiles to a C shared library also does that

I think the problem is that if hashicorp thinks you are a competitor you and your clients now have legal/operational issues. Ie you are now a competitor because we are releasing a product just like yours, here is a letter from a lawyer telling you to stop using terraform.

Ok I have more vaccines then the law requires because I went places where it made sense to get more shots for more disease.

I have not touched the COVID shot because I did not trust it for these reasons:

- vaccines take years to test not months - there were new untested biotech involved - in short order I was being told that it does not work for this flavor of COVID.

And now it is acknowledged to not protect you or prevent the spread of COVID.

How can you claim any social good here? it has bad side effects and does not work.

Why should I feel a sense of ownership over something everyone, myself included, know I do not own? Really why?

I have a sense of professional responsibility that says do my best at work because I take the money, but that is different.

If I have unallocated and paid for time at work I look for things to fill it with that are valid work and improve my skills, or braindead things to fix like typos in the text or simple documentation updates. Both mean I am earning my pay and oddly enough I get a lot of props for the second and so does the engineering team overall for that work.

Depends on a few things:

1. what that particular filter filters out: ppm, mold, chemicals 2. What is in the air being filtered 3. How sensitive you are to the things in your air 4. How often the rooms air gets filtered through the filter 5. How effective the filter is

I worked in Beijing for a while and going somewhere with filtered air literally felt like a weight was removed some days.

Why is it suprising? There is no real need for people writing hand tuned assembly any more. And great optimized assembly code can work like crap on next gen of chip. Why bother?
