They will just have a program do the deletion randomly and call it chaos engineering.

While the article has done good points about what to do instead of an on-boarding, I'd also suggest on-boarding can be good for the user. Video games tend to do on-boarding, and often it's not skippable and covers very basic idioms (use the left stick/WASD to move).

The difference I think it's the novelty of the new environment and a sense of accomplishment that it rarely is a chore. So go ahead and on-board if the user gets to see something very cool.

So it is transitioning from manufacturing to offshore banking, and yet it's a one-trick pony?

To relate it to the main article: public housing in Singapore is affordable and an investment.

You can sell it and prices are somewhat market driven but with complicated taxes and limitations to prevent speculation (flipping). It's affordable because, as public housing, there are numerous subsidies, incentives, etc that the government provides to make the initial down payment and subsequent installments as easy as possible.

Teralytics | Software Engineer, Data Scientist | Singapore | ONSITE, VISA, Full-Time and Intern | https://www.teralytics.net/jobs

Teralytics is hiring Software Engineers in Singapore and Zurich, and for interns in Software Engineer and Data Scientist roles in Singapore. I'm the hiring manager for Singapore, so I'm pitching mostly for those roles here, but you can find out more at our job website: https://www.teralytics.net/jobs.

We're looking for functional programmers with good knowledge of distributed systems, databases, stream processing, or statistics. Scala knowledge preferred but not required. Salaries are extremely competitive and perks are good but we're also extremely selective. For interns, the work and environment is very good: I'm ex-Microsoft, and I'd say it's far better than the MS intern experience in those regards (we can't match their intern salaries though).

We are an analytics company (ETH Zurich spinoff) that operates across a very large swath of the problem space: integrating deep into the "sensors," through the processing and analytics, and then the visualization. We are solving some hard problems around realtime streaming, geospatial and predictive analytics, and work closely with data-driven customers to improve how cities and transportation work. The Singapore technical team is small (approximately 10) but growing in size and capabilities. Unfortunately, our work and opportunities are outpacing us, so come and help us!

I've encountered engineers who takes things too literally for this to work:

Me: "should this be documented in the team wiki?" Engineer: "Probably" "should we document it now before we forget?" "Okay" "um, do you want to do it? I could do it for you after I'm done with my tasks if you need help" "okay, you do it"

whoosh hint not taken. It's not rare either since the stereotype of socially awkward literal engineers is not entirely undeserved.

The number of lines of "Greeked" text should match the number of events you have for that day.

Random tidbit: among the Greeked text in the old calendar is the phrase "Hello from Seattle." It's a phrase that also occurs in several places on WP, including EXIF data in photos. It also occurs in various other MS products, if you know where to look :)

Unfortunately, MS has a policy against many easter eggs, like the flight sim in Excel, since the Trustworthy Computing Initiative: Undocumented behaviour is untested behaviour, and untested behaviour may lead to security and other issues. Easter eggs in MS products now are limited to such harmless ones.
