last employer (~6 years ago

It does not sounds like ad, but like Fortran. Last Ada job I remember was mars rover in 90ties. Great but nothing for new hires!

Lets hope climate warming will kick in this winter. Or 30 million refugees from Ukraine will flood Europe...

Project cleanup after sweatshops. Team quits on spot, leaves mess, no documentation. I put project back on track, documents things, help to hire new developers...

Business people in Twitter did not generated any profits (sales, positive PR...). I totally understand Elons position.

Key points:

- Elon said there are 10 managers for one engineer. We can argue about numbers, but I am pretty sure there are no 10 engineers for 1 manager

- Web UI is crap, it is slow to load etc... If twitter would accept pull requests, I would fix it myself. I am pretty sure tech people are frustrated by situation.

- I do not see any research from Twitter into federated networks, cryptography... I did interviews with twitter in 2012, this stuff was all cut latter... I think Musk may sponsor this type of research just to push his Dogecoin BS.

- Read how "hostile takeover" looks like. It is mess, also it is very very sensitive week. "work the whole weekend" is irrelevant. Things will look very different in two weeks!

- Key people will be able to renegotiate their contracts, with much much better salary. You probably need 100 people to run twitter. See Whatsapp...

it's not going to be a nice place to work for, so those people that are financially well off

I beg to differ. People who are crucial to operation will be much better off. Less meetings, less bloat, less bs, probably better salary.

I do consulting. Recession is good for business, companies lay off team of 10 developers and replace it with single remote consultant for 40% of cost. Also less taxes, since I work in different country.... You do the math.

This is lame, all the risk with very bad reward. There are very realistic medieval battle reenactments. And sometimes people get injured and even die!

are commonly treated with antibiotics

Transparent jar full of water, sitting on sun for days maybe weeks. Perfect petri dish!

Chlorine in tap water will kill your gut microflora with long term use. Some more sensitive bacteria (reuteri) are most important for immune system! At least leave tap water stand still for couple of hours, so the chlorine gets out!

For development I would just recommend github issues with comments. Way more user friendly. Also separate identities, perhaps even different server. No need to get main account compromised, or to get banned from Github for spicy comments.

It is centralised and only for US. I am not going to participate on any platform that is not decentralised, federated and zero trust.

In past I put a lot of effort into various forums. Well sourced information, several thousands hours of work. But very ofter it was all wasted, wiped and deleted.

Now I only write books. There are well established censorship laws. And work I put into writing book will be preserved!

Or just uninstall sudo, at least on opensuse it is optional package.

That is for next pandemic in 2023, silly :)

And of course, there are always trials¡¿¶

I think T-Mobile is decent option, 30GB for $20 per month. Not cheapest but reliable. That is in East Europe, maybe you are in wrong country :)

That is your choice, but sunrise and sunset is always nice)

Look at Japan, to see what is future for US.

It only affects people who went online and into subscriptions. If you own local Photoshop instalation, you can still open PSD files with no troubles!

What I want:

- I select trail

- App generates map PDF with numbered markers (milestones)

- phone has GPS active, but only shows single number, milestone. Preferably on lock screen, without unlocking phone.

Distraction free, tiny drain on battery.

Come back to where? Are CPUs gold mine? It is saturated and highly competitive market. Maybe they achieve leadership again in performance or some other metrics, but how would that turn into profits?

Everything with US is reversible, just wait until next election... I really hope not too many people will die until then. Iran, Afghanistan, Lybia, Syria, Jemen... another pointless war. World needs something better!

Interesting. I found it great to evaluate some random github projects. Virtual machines do not work very well on multiple monitors. I can also separate such projects from internal lab network.

I do data processing and can saturate similar bandwidth. But 10Gbps goes to my home server room.

There is no need to have 10Gb in bedroom, such tech produces a lot of noise and heat. Maybe Stadia or similar video streaming could use such bandwidth. But this looks more like wiring for residential building with multiple flats, or office building. Or like some sort of tech flex.

I wonder what is use case for this network. At my home I only use optics for long run, more for galvanic isolation, as electric charge could destroy electronics. All servers are concentrated in single room. Clients use miniPCs. Rest of the house is wired with 2.5Gb ethernet and wifi6, anything faster and expenses grow exponentially.

Innovations? Initiatives? Like edit button and lengthening strings over 160 characters?

Just look at their Web UI, horribly slow and lagy.

Twitter is horribly bloated and unprofitable company. Several thousands people could be justified if there are sales and profits. 75% is not enough, current people must go, regardless of politics.

No, in 20nyears we discover colors should face the wall, real painting is blank canvas on other side :)

Are you suggesting blacks are more likely to be criminals? That is impossible... and frankly in a few years nobody will care.

If anything this system can be promoted and sold as barrier from right wing extremism. Now you can physically ban tump supporters and antivagers from your shop!

Edit: also shop owners and security can be black...

Not really, this system is private and does not really on police. Criminals are denied entry. If they become violent, managed by security.

Many OS projects closed their mailing lists. Google groups become unusable, and maintaining your own infrastructure is pain.

Plus many OS devs resigned on providing unpaid customer support. So far Github issues seems to be a good place for relevant bug reports. And people who need help (and paid) have direct phone number.

Face recognition camera at entrance, shared database between stores, two door turnikets, armed guards at entrance... Boom! Problem solved!

Maybe not, imagine possession of such program is treated same way as a child pornography.
