There is. For yearly performance reviews.

Is this... a joke? Performance art? Not snarking. I'm honestly more confused reading this than I was before.

This and also poor zoning laws and NIMBYism allow for (and encourage) constant sprawl which also drives city prices up more because some people don't want to commute two hours each…

Now that's the fun part of the cyberpunk timeline I was looking for.

Now this is good content. Thank you!

That too, but also combined with having to balance that the people who did this before also did it in a different time with different resources and also have selective memories.

This. I was going to say essentially the same thing. Every adult who becomes a parent seems to realize very quickly that their parents also had no clue WTF was going on. So yeah, n…

Also sounds exactly like what happened with tobacco companies, lead in paint/gasoline, etc. It's like we never learn and then those who are in charge made rules to make it even har…

This. Data engineering has ramped up significantly and if you want senior people you'll quickly run out of people who've been exclusively doing "big data" for 5+ years. So your opt…

This! Ten times this! Single dependencies like this are absolutely a risk management issue. I say this as someone who's both been a single point of failure at times (and learned my…

Ok that was a really fun read. It's amazing how many random things like this persist for centuries despite tons of evidence to the contrary existing.

We're all gonna die sometime. Some of us will starve from no food, others will have a heart attack from poor quality food. Eat Arby's.

This one is a double whammy not only because there's not only data on those companies, but it can be extrapolated that many of those companies are relatively new to the cloud (and …

Happy Friday. Eat Arby's.

Now this is the sort of news I can use.

Why not both?

Unless Hacker News is down, in which case you need to give up and go outside.

This! So much this! Can we please put away the Puritan bullshit ethics in the US that clearly keep getting exported? Those people were booted out a few centuries ago for a reason. …

Yeah, that's a "Why not both?" situation right there. It does do important stuff for the business folks, and made it way easier for them in a really cool (at the time) way. They've…

Being forced into a management job with no direction or mentoring.

I've been saying this for years, so I'm glad I agree with the experts.

Same. I also want to live in a world where I don't have to fight with paywalls to read a newspaper.

This! Windows got split up internally under Nadella into Azure and Office groups. If anything, a lot of this means they're also boosting Azure even more by doing the same thing wit…
