    Filled it out, likely not to move any needles, but at least I did a thing. Thanks Casenjo for pointing out the survey.

    I read it as Hashicorp Vault, but for all employees, not just (IT) engineers.

    It's not a new phenomena [1]. I do not think "hospitals are incapable of keeping people safe from Covid" is the best expression. I think "encountering any humans bears increased ri…

    How do you know that "no humans involved"? Was there something that clued you in on the fact that the responses were not from a human being?

    Yes, your employment contract has likely a minimum number of hours of work stipulated (otherwise PTO etc becomes hard). Look, i’m not saying it is a valuable way of looking at prod…

    Does it not state a minimum amount of hours worked? If so, there’s a reasonable argument for fraud? ($x for y hours, but y hours were not delivered, only a fraction was.) Just so I…

    To add to that list: I’d bet good money the Rijk’s ventilation and climate control is top notch.

    The wording is slightly negative, but it does describe that side of the role well. There are also positive aspects that hang in the balance. Personally (as a people manager) I appr…

    Have a couple in random order: Be intentional about who you spend time with, who you work with, who you serve, and who you listen to. (March 2019, Patrick McKenzie, @patio11) Dream…

    I hope this reply chain doesn’t grow in length, but I’m in the same situation (terminal), and father to two. I wish everything could continue as normal as possible while acknowledg…

    I think you're looking for Overton Window, actually [1]. Also, I'm waiting for the the last shoe to drop: showing ads even to users that have YouTube Red; it's only a matter of tim…

    If you wish more competition to enter the market I'd argue for Apple to increase its prices (the higher margins the more competition). You're arguing they lower their prices, and t…

    Hey, while you are reshooting the pictures, have a look at David Hobby's material over at Strobist [0], especially the lighting 101 series [1]. Hope you find them as helpful as I d…
