It happened for me once by pure chance. I was looking to leave a secondment I was on, and received an offer, right as the leader of the client I was seconded to said we’d like to t…

My 8yo has an iPad with Osmo Awbie which he loves. You use physical tiles to program steps in a logic game like “move right 3”, “turn 90deg”… They have a bunch of other programs to…

Hopefully after living a long and fulfilling life? Geez

The tortoise and the hare is an important point to raise - this is exactly how I feel. But how long before AI is Good Enough that the point is irrelevant?

Maybe because others aren’t “disrupting” everyone else

I agree with this outcome. When you do raise issues nothing gets done about them and so if you continue down that path they will see the writing on the wall and plan your replaceme…

…does he think it’s “safer”?

This remote colleagues problem is my issue. I don’t mind coming back in (except the cost) but it is very irritating and pointless as I’m a project manager with dispersed teams all …

We as end users have no agency in the relationship with vendors.

This write up is fantastic

Sorry I don’t have advice but as someone who started in infra before cloud, and has recently been involved in data (Fabric, PowerBI) programs, don’t take the steep learning curve o…

Why should web browsers treat http like a bug? Many sites don’t need https.

From the FAQ it appears to be similar to Protonmail - emails stored on their servers, however the key “decentralized” difference being that you locally hold the encryption key so a…

How do you know if a friend installed This is Your Digital Life?

Don’t you love the doublespeak of using “FAIR” as well!

I work in a large law firm and see similar outcomes, coming from a similar fast paced background. I’ve drawn a different conclusion as to “why” though. Law firms are inherently ris…

I always wonder how enforceable these blanket rights would be in court. Didn’t Meta claim to own end users’ photos in the T&Cs back around 2009 and it got challenged and shot down …

They’re generalising to say the world uses Apple, Google, Microsoft, Zoom, Cisco, Tesla, and so on… US tech stocks. We use them and they gain revenue and profit. Of course there ar…

How many bits of paper does a restaurant need? How much electricity does their webpage menu use running 24/7. I can’t tell if you’re joking but no ESG professional would care about…

Also gotta think of what else is using the corporate internet pipe you can’t drown it in one aws upload for days.

A few years ago there was definitely document processing automation and query based filtering but still alot of human work. I assume you’re right and AI now does some of the work b…
