    No, not if you're doing it to save money. If you're doing it because someone else is better, then yes. See: IBM's software engineering, vs Delta's offering of their maintenance ops…

    I agree. The GOP gerrymandering SF so that they have complete control of city council is obviously the problem here. /s There are no GOP members in City government, and haven't bee…

    This thread is 90%+ people denying the very existence of a problem. Last time I was in SF, people were shocked that I felt less comfortable than I do in Detroit. Detroit doesn't to…

    His complaints are very well outlined. They are a bit niche due to his use case, but they certainly are real, breaking changes out of nowhere. Standards compliance really is the na…
