The article is from a consulting company that sells devops solutions. Some marketing people got together and said, "What kind of article can we write to make people want to buy our product?" Then they wrote an article filled with phrases designed to make CxO types pay attention. The marketing people thought it would be worth the expense of doing a survey to get broader circulation. The point is, don't expect it to make sense, that's not it's purpose. It was written to attract attention, like a butterfly.
There's a technology that is better now at detecting certain types of tumours in images than radiologists.
In one, carefully curated study. When doctors start actually being replaced by that technology, we can say it's better, but for now all we have is a preliminary study. Here is just one of many reasons it matters.
When I say, "care enough to vote on it," I mean, will you vote against your senator if he opposes net neutrality? The reality is most people don't care, and of the ones who do care, a good chunk oppose net neutrality (because they oppose regulation of all types).
The FCC request for comments wasn't an election, obviously.
Put your wrists on the edge of the tablet, and have your fingers memorize the distance to the keys (virtual keys). It sounds miserable but you can do it (and yes it is miserable).
We've had plenty of dual-screen devices (mainly phones), and they are really cool. They just don't have any use case, they are toys. No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.
Our dev and DevOps teams use Agile so there's a ridiculous two week minimum delay for any fix since you have to add the JIRA issue to a new sprint before you can fix it.
Wow, Agile is making you not agile. Good thing you are following the agile manifesto by putting people before processes.
They do pay for their bandwidth, just like everyone else on the internet. Net neutrality, when done right, says they shouldn't have to pay twice for bandwidth just because the isp's CEO's daughter got a bad review for her restaurant. That sort of favoritism has no place in a capitalist, competitive society.
The more people working on electric cars, the better. I want a 15,000 dollar electric car with a range of 400 miles. That will happen eventually, but the more people researching it, the sooner it will happen.
Unless we can somehow get down to a 3nm node, and after that a 1nm node, then speed increases in CPUS will soon come to an end and CPUs will quickly become commodities, with no new research needed.
It might have been trying that, but it was wrong. It was referring to a concrete man in every way, gender, sex, self-identification......it was just wrong.
Ok, your manager is really hands-off. That is good. But he still is going to be in charge of giving you raises and performance reviews, and making sure the team is going in the right direction overall for the company. In your case, if you've only worked in small companies, then the fact that your CEOs have been hands-off means they have a lot of respect for you, which is a good reflection on you. If you want to call that guy a 'boss' instead, that is fine.
Obviously we started about "manager" as in the sense of one who is organizing to a certain degree what a developer is doing when and how.
So are you doing Scrum then? Because Scrum does have a manager called a "Scrum Master" who is organizing to a certain degree what a developer is doing when and how.
I'm not sure the new model is actually better than the old model. In recent months, I've seen it make bizarre mistakes, like translate "man" as "woman" in contexts where there was no room for mistake. Also it translated 10,000 as a million. Something is wrong with it.
Makes you wonder. I have a oak that is about a century old on my property. The damn carpenter ants are attacking it. The arborist checked it out recently (I love this giant old tree).
The person who can fire you is your manager. And if you don't do well, he can get fired as a result. That dynamic is real, even if you try to ignore it. Even if he's a "hands off" kind of manager, that just means you got a good manager (or he's a bad manager and you got lucky)
Anytime we change a software standard, it's an act of violence. It is disruptive. It will cause stuff to fail. It will cause cost and harm to people. So we need to be really careful when we revise the standards because there is that cost. We have to make sure that we're adding so much value to offset the cost.
The way it's written, it seems like it's about petroglyphs. People aren't really interested in petroglyphs on this site.......
I honestly have considerably more faith that Trump will sort out the North Korean situation than tech creating networks and power grids which are actually hardened against solar outbursts.
It seems to me that inflation may be directly tied to the ratio of stuff being sold to the amount of money used to purchase stuff.
Oh yeah, you got it exactly right, good job. You pretty nearly derived the money equation there, MV = PQ.
Conceptually, another way of looking at it is that all the value is on one side of the equation (all the things in the world). You can increase or decrease the money supply all you want (the other side of the equation is the money supply), but the money (at any amount) will still only be able to buy the things.

My current office is on the second floor, so I guess we're assuming Uber's incompetence with self-driving tech will
They're not Daleks, but nearly as effective.

When you care enough about it to vote on it.
My team e.g. has no Scrum Master, only a PM.
This is a little off-topic, but PM could either be project manager or product manager, so it is quite ambiguous.

The hard part is you actually have to buy before you complain.

I also found this gem, "colleag" which is not even English.

Well get rid of the carpenter ants, anyway.

Yeah, actually, you shouldn't call the Linux kernel secure, and no one (not even Linus) would call it small.

Yeah, I agree haha.
Heh, the standard answer of Agile advocates everywhere.

In terms of memory or disk space it's trivial. In terms of 1.6MB of compiled code, that's a lot of code, a lot of room for bugs.
