I agree with your take. It was obvious to my VP. It's not obvious to the rest of the enterprise (yet).
But I think it's just a matter of when not if.
My current guess at my slow fortune 500 is ~1-2 years before we see real employment impact.
Startups are happening now at least with my anecdotal conversations. Right now the discussion is more just slower growth than actually doing layoffs. That coin will flip at some point.
Yeah that's the idea. They hold corporations hostage that are slow to move and increase prices.
Generically speaking no.
There's some exceptions, USDA, VA, and FHA loans. All government programs. But it's tied to the property so only transferable to the purchaser. Very rare here even now with rates changing so much.
> American households, on average, have $41,600 in savings, according to data last collected by the Federal Reserve in 2019.
Average vs Median strikes again.
Median household has 4k. 70% don't break 10k.
It's the high end that weighs on that average pretty hard.
I think private CAs are a mistake if only because of all the time wasted on certificate errors from improperly configured platforms. Don't forget that some languages don't respect system stores.
Unless you are involved in that sale discussion or otherwise have a retention bonus I wouldn't go down with the ship.
Probation is a legal term that has implications like you can let someone go for no reason. Most places don't have zero worker rights like the US does.
Have you already paid? Ask for a "pay for delete agreement" if you haven't
You need an Apple device to watch Apple TV+
I watched severance on a Roku so I know that isn't true.
I would argue the lack of atmosphere and high cost of shipping materials is a LVT in and of itself. You only build things that are useful on Mars.
I've always thought that stand-ups are a lazy form of management
My only point is that I see similar echoes of that argument from the comment I replied to, and I firmly disagree with that stance.
We got a small taste of how isolated nations are when this pandemic kicked off. It's amazing it didn't degrade further.
Norman Angell argued almost the exact same thing as you-- in 1909. Doubled down on this argument in 1933. "The Great Illusion".
He was wrong -- both times. :)
In my experience, a lot of people who live and reside in Los Angeles will take gigs in Georgia. Most people wouldn't actually live there minus their short stints to do the film they are involved in.
Serious question. I thought Yelp was basically dead? I essentially only use Google reviews.
They might just be confusing that with sprint being an awful network in general.
Don't think that some paper equity gives your employer more loyalty to you
Since 1 million is totally meaningless to me, this is roughly speaking 17 semi trucks full of water per million.
It's obvious that it's a failure of logistics, but missing 17 semi truck loads doesn't seem insane to me.
The author is incorrect about JSON in mysql. You can in fact index individual columns in your JSON. They end up being generated columns that you then index. Not as slick or mature as postgres, but it does exist.
Edit: audited the rest of the post. Author is otherwise correct. Occasionally ignores some (admittedly ugly) workarounds for some issues. All in all, great post.
What exactly does that website do?
What what did I miss?
So at it's peak we had ~160k Americans in Iraq. At Afghanistan peak, we had ~100k.
Chicago has ~11 times as many Americans. I'll take my chances with Chicago.
It's actually shows how remarkably low we were on the casualty rate in the wars we had. Far cry from the civil war (~25% casualty rate).

Network Infrastructure - North Central US
Summary of impact: Between approximately 19:34 UTC and 21:04 UTC on 06 Nov 2017, customers in North Central US may have experienced degraded performance, network drops, or timeouts when accessing Azure resources hosted in this region. Engineers were aware of additional impact for customers using App Service in South Central US. Engineers determined that this was caused by an underlying Network Infrastructure Event in this region which remains under investigation.
Preliminary root cause: Engineers identified configuration change as the potential root cause.
Mitigation: Engineers performed a change to the service configuration to BGP and mitigate the issue.
Next steps: Engineers will continue to investigate to establish the full root cause in approximately 72 hours.
At some point (roughly around your size, maybe a little larger) you'll want to add dedicated master nodes with no data.
3 small boxes, master eligible, holding no data.
I love the writeup, having a way to reproduce data if your clusters fail is a definite must with ES.
Population is 90k, average household size is 1.8. Suggesting that it represents ~3.5% of the housing in the city.
Market rate for a (very) modest 1 bed is 2k/mo. 2bed is 3k/mo.
I wouldn't call it a blip on a radar.
I wouldn't live in the valley and be carless.
Is this parody? The lines blur nowadays.
I wonder what size of cluster they are using.
I have two clusters running.
Largest one is an ELK stack. 7 nodes (soon to be 8, we're logging too much :) ), no dedicated master nodes, ~3TBs of data (1.5TB data x 2 for the back up). Need to make sure they are split appropriately into availability zones in case you lose a cloud zone. Need to have the right # of minimum master nodes otherwise you can hit a split brain issue. 500GB SSD, 4vCPUs, 26gigs memory. It eats ~5 gigs an hour peak load without breaking a sweat. Can basically take any heavy query people have thrown at it kibana wise.
That was my approach as well. It helped my productivity immensely, but I do notice that I'm slightly less aware of current events.
