You haven’t explained why it’s not the EUs fault. They constantly stick their nose in everything and people get on their knees to the EU blindly believing it’s doing a good thing. The EU is a failure, without America the EU would have been absorbed by Russia and China by now. The EU hasn’t prevented anything bad from happening. Just causes more headaches.

So what you’re saying is that if video conferencing works, regardless of it works well or poorly, it works therefore it’s not an issue. Even if a team worked faster, more efficiently, in person. It’s ok to be remote because it worked even tho they are less efficient and it doesn’t work as well.

lol. No amount of good internet fixes remote calls.

> 1

daily checkin, in person can happen in a minute. It’s helpful. Teams succeed together, not at the direction of 1 person coordinating. Removing them is just dumb.

> 2

lol no. That’s a dumb suggestion. It makes people less productive. Trying to replace a 30 second conversation with slack/teams etc is really just dumb.

> 3

Teams that socialise work better together. Period. You remove any socialising factor and you end up with silos, lost knowledge, depression. Etc.

All trash. A meeting in person is always shorter cos you don’t deal with audio issues a talking over each other and the mountain of other issues from remote calls. No amount of money in good hardware fixes this no matter what anyone claims.

You cancelled the tool because you didn’t know how to use it?

> Asian style living in apartments with public transport.

^ clearly never visited Asia. LOL

The U.S. doesn’t consider Taiwan as part of China.

”it's poor people that loot”

This always seems to be the defence despite is not being true. Poor white people evacuated and helped who they could. Poor black people waited to be helped, looted, murdered, and played victims.

It’s amazing that facts are now racist. We can’t identify a problem and try fix it. We just stand back and say “no that’s racist”.

Yeah everyone’s a racist when you’re not smart enough to understand someone.

4 months and produced nothing. She was low hanging fruit in a cost cutting exercise.

Time to move on.

Lot of phones aren’t “made” in China. Just assembled.

Damn that thing is almost as ugly as the cybertruck!

> it did not seem all that obvious an opt-out was needed

That doesn’t help seem like people making decisions at sentry are caring about their customers. I left sentry for other reasons but this just reinforces my decision to leave.

But they are trash cars.

Mind blowing that people think wind or solar is good lol

EVs are rubbish.

Cheaper to build yet the cost of power has gone up significantly.

Wind and solar are terrible solutions. Another 10-20 years and people will be complaining about cost of power as all the wind and solar need to be replaced and repaired. And the discussions on irreversible damage it’s done.

Yet in Asia self checkouts work well and rarely ever need intervention.

Is broken ice cream machine an American thing because in 30 years I’ve never been into a McDonald’s in Asia/Pacific that had a broken machine. It’s always working.

They aren’t wrong.

lol why does Spotify even have so many employees to begin with. Doubt it was 1600 tech jobs cos they don’t need anywhere close to that to run the service.

Earth is round, and if you think ai isn’t going to be intelligent then you’re not intelligent yourself. Also don’t use windows daily but atleast I’m not an idiot “m$ bad cos reasons so I can whine on hacker news to my boyfriends in a circle jerk”

I use Linux not windows. But windows isn’t flooded with ads like people claim. Outside of the U.S. I’ve never seen ads.

Wah wah wah windows 11 same as windows 10 with menu centered it hurts my feelings I can’t use it anymore.

Still no one gives any /actual/ reasons why windows 11 is bad. Just their hurt feelings.

Microsoft’s aquisirion of activision likely saved blizzard. MS only has 15% of the console market.

No.

I had to upgrade a project from rails 4.2 to 5.0 and it took like 3 weeks because things just broke randomly.

Upgraded a .NET 4.7 project to .NET 6 in 3 days and haven’t touched it since. And the .NET project was larger.

I haven’t done rails since that upgrade and I hope i never have to touch it again.

Xamarin for iOS and Android just works…

Maui on the other hand is a turd. It’s such a pain to work with, workloads just plain suck. And if you install . Net 7 and your project targets 6, It will download .net 7 workloads and fail to build. Then 8 comes out and same problem. Have to pin the SDK.
