I really like this approach. You could even automate it where the 0–100ms queue's workers could sever the connection after 100ms and re-queue the message on the next level up, while also incrementing the timeout counter. You could do really interesting things by incrementing and decrementing a timeout counter... e.g., it gets decremented when the transaction completes under the line for the queue it's in. That could help with flap.

Menu prices on DoorDash are definitely still higher here than at the restaurant.

It’s a truly broken system. I always answer 10 for call center employees, because often they’re not empowered to actually fix anything, and answering anything else often hurts that person instead of shedding light on the broken system they’re stuck in.

The only time I answer less than 10 for a CS person is if they’re actually rude or not trying to be helpful. I much prefer the surveys that ask multiple specific questions that split the interaction between the rep and the outcome.

I know someone hired at Netflix who is belligerent, inexperienced, and lazy. He is a senior engineer there. Titles don’t really matter much at the end of the day.

You can show the diff with `git stash show` or also apply your patch with `git apply save.patch`

The first article you sited actually says that airlines are a low margin business. The fact that they've been more profitable than normal, according to your source, has to do with fuel prices driving more volume and saving some overhead, and their efficiency programs. Even with all that, their gross profits are still just in line with an average corporation.

This chart is so nonesense. HTML is deprecated? Really? And how is having more versions a higher risk of obsolescence, but having /multiple specifications/ reduces risk?

For things like this, since the majority of lawmakers are also real estate owners, it would be a non-starter. But, even if it did happen, I feel like the food costs would just increase to compensate for the taxes, since the rental prices would certainly go up disproportionately.

I never hit that minimum thing. I'll give $1 every once in a while because they're friendly and the town is so expensive, but the food prices already definitely reflect that, and there is no service, so /shrug

Specifically for the requirement "Is there another open source vcs that would be a more natural upgrade to CVS": the answer is hands down Subversion for that requirement. If you want distributed or "more modern" but not git, perhaps Mercurial or Bazaar, but they're less prevalent choices.

I personally love the staging component of git and would be lost without it. I often write a bunch of code working through a problem, because I think best that way, but it makes for a maintenance chore and a poor commit history, so I stage it into multiple commits when I'm done. This is absolutely trivial in git compared with other programs.

Plus, while the UX of git is not intuitive, especially from SVN, if you want to bypass staging and just use it like SVN, you can "git commit -a". Like svn, if you have new, untracked files, you can "git add -A; git commit". This is also trivial to alias.

Why skip secondary and jump straight to tertiary?

I've worked with a lot of really good managers who understand the role their group plays without having to delude themselves into thinking their team or function is primary. I think that's something that's really important regardless of the industry.

The most enjoyable jobs I've had have been those where there was good, self-aware management. While bad management is obviously a horrible time all-around, I've also had very bad experiences in the so called flat, self-managed models. For those to work, the greater majority of the team need to actually be self-aware, good (at least self) managers.

They are not the same in any kind of way. If you think that people getting murdered because of the color of their skin by agents acting under color of authority is equivalent to saying that cyclists shouldn't be shamed for acting unsafely and possibly causing accidents, injuries, or death because bikes are not cars, all I can think is that I feel as sorry for you as I do for the #alllivesmatter people.

In this instance, stop whining is not advice, it's in response to people thinking that for their own narcissistic reasons, it's okay to jeapordize the safety of others. That includes the cars that park in bike lanes as well as the bicyclists who blow through stop signs.

The first paragraph of this response is a dispicible belittlement of the rampant racism in the United States. Stop whining wasn't an argument, and having cyclists behave safely and follow road rules is absolutely nothing like being an apologist for racists that don't want to admit they're racists and just want the status quo.

I believe that we all share this earth and we should all act safely and responsibly. Yes, cars kill far more easily than bikes, but bikes can seriously injure or kill as well. Cars swerving out of the way of bikes also kill, which could have easily been the result of your encounter, had the SUV been swerving to avoid a bike.

You shouldn't be forced off the road. Pedestrians shouldn't step blindly into the road. Cars shouldn't drive erratically in populated areas. Bike can seriously injur or kill people, so just act responsibly.

I'd rather not be hit by either of them, period. Cars should not be running stop signs or lights, but neither should bicyclists, period. Full stop. Also, having a bike run the stop sign and fly into an intersection out of nowhere can easily cause cars to swerve, causing accidents, or even strike the bicyclist.

It's not difficult to drive, ride, or walk safely. Just do it and stop whining.

They should have consulted their lawyer before making that "press release," as they call it. Perhaps she could have explained to them the difference between libel and slander.

There are studies that suggest using analgesics may negatively affect your judgement, so there's that.
