I expect there's a probabilistic factor to it, among other things. I use the almost the same addendum as you ("do not make, commit, or push any changes without my approval") and it…

I've reread it and I stand by my statements that it's an isomorphism, simply replace "container" with "machine AAD/auth-system boundaries" in your example. The "Your credentials st…

I'd argue you are still using a sandbox, just at a higher ring (outside the machine/VM) and relaying on app/resource level permissions on each of your external resources to enforce…

While I typically avoid touching non-technical topics, I have the opportunity to chime in as another PA highschooler from the 90's, we absolutely were taught that, down to details …

As a manager, I've tried for years to balance both sides of this coin. However, what I find in practice is that your success depends almost entirely on the trust your leadership ha…

I'm similarly bemused by those who don't understand where the anti-AI sentiment could come from, and "they must be doing it wrong" should usually be a bit of a "code smell". (Not t…

I've appreciated reading your posts broadly/for years prior to this as well, so definitely same statement back your way. If you're ever in the PNW, beers/coffee is on me.

While tone on the internet admittedly makes it hard to tell if your comment was tongue-in-cheek, I'm going to take this in good faith and express my appreciation that you even read…

While "try it and see what happens" may work for low-risk efforts, the costs and chaos associated with this in a system as complex as global employment seems eminently short-sighte…

I respectfully think you overestimate the impact this will have. Like with the H1-B cap discussions there were murmurs about some time back (Not actually reducing the cap, but inst…

Chiming in with a slightly different perspective: I often bookmark things I see in passing that might not be useful now but may in the future based on things I know I want to do. C…

While I normally keep the political threads at arms length, this is an interesting enough game/voting-theory question that I'm honestly surprised no one has linked the fact that th…

I take a very mechanical view on this, but take this with a grain of salt as my success has been "banal" at best. You have people paying you for your product. This is more fit than…

This is a bit orthogonal to the broader conversation, but you've hooked me with your predicament: Can you allow for preorders or "Expressed interest" at a new price point? (or at a…

I'm going to disagree with this as a long-term ARPG fan and a long-since-washed-up game dev. Up through the last few years, I was playing Path of Exile rather regularly. The grind …

As another hybrid "TLM->EM" with a similarly sized team, over a similarly sized product, I definitely feel many of the same pain points you call out. BUT. And I say this with all r…

I will admit your response gave me a little whiplash :P When I started reading I was getting very ready to disagree vehemently ("remote work is overhyped and only works for a tiny …

(Obvious disclaimer all views are my own and not my employer's) First, let me say that I don't disagree, pragmatically, with the truth of what you're saying, in terms of increasing…

Documenting everything ruthlessly (meeting summaries, action items, personal knowledge, TODOs, passing thoughts ala things I want to discuss with peers, etc) in a centralized and e…

While I can't speak for every manager, I can speak for myself managing a hybrid team going on 5 years now (obvious disclaimer, not necessarily the views of my company etc) > Imagin…

Question for ya if you don't mind: I had to do some PDF scraping a while back as part of a side project collecting alternative social/economic datasources. Even within a single sit…

There's definitely a line to walk there re: consumer education, but I'll give the analogy that if you walk into a bank to obtain a loan, you'll hand over _far_ more sensitive infor…

Some perspective, since I've been on the other side of exactly this issue, but for another bigco: While there may well be a backend issue, in many cases, the HAR file contains tons…

I can confirm this on pure (native) FF as well. As someone who has run multiple large web properties this hurts to see. I've observed firsthand the impact of what adding friction t…

So, I normally stick very hard to tech topics on HN, but this (dance and tall folks) is so close to heart I have to chime in: Have faith! Don't feel bad, lankiness while dancing is…
