EDIT: Sorry, they've dropped Windows support recently.
I don’t think it’s fair to dismiss what seems to be a reasonable discussion as simply “TERF talking points” and then reframe what your opponents are saying in an un-sympathetic way.
Yes, it works, and that's why it's dangerous because it lets a manager fall into bad habits of doing it again.
It makes the people doing the work pull out all the stops - beg vendors for support, drive to the customer site to witness the problem, and generally so whatever it takes.
In my HR hat, I would be reluctant to hire anybody that had recent training that was explicitly given exclusively to one race or excluding other federally protected classes like religion, gender, or handicap.
The local hospital handles the problem like this:
Doctor 1 gathers evidence and makes a preliminary diagnosis and writes it down. Doctor 1 then presents only the evidence to Doctor 2. Doctor 2 comes up with an independent diagnosis and writes it down. They then see if they match.
I use mine almost exclusively for listening to books - when you have a chore that you know how to do without thinking like putting away the dishes or mowing the lawn it can turn it into something enjoyable. For me, mowing the lawn doesn't engage the brain enough so I avoid it by itself.
I had a report in Microsoft Access that took about five minutes to run - and the users hated it.
I had the application throw up a fake dialog with fake messages about "Collating data, Cross checking, Sorting" and other such nonsense.
The report now took eight minutes to run because I had to abuse the "On Timer" event for it to work.
The users were delighted with the improvement.
I couldn't handle the emotional issues of pricing - I like my customers so I made my rates low.
One of my employees saw the problem and started to handle the pricing - he quotes stupid high rates that leave a lot of wiggle room to delight our customers by going above what was expected.
Both we and the customer are happier.
TLDR: Perhaps let someone else price for you because they're not emotionally attached to the number.
Perhaps not. I'm 42 and I'm
tend to think of my station in life as just being delayed by 15 years - I had to get over a rather crappy childhood and a protracted adolescence.
(That said, I'd admonish anyone your age that if you don't have children, have them now rather than a series of compensating house-pets for the rest of your life)
It really depends on the load and if your raidz has 1,2, or 3 spare drives. From what I've experienced, re-slivering a the new drive in a raidz seems to happen at about 30% of the maximum ZFS throughput under medium load. And even better than many RAID5/6 implementations - it only re-slivers enough to store your data and not just the entire drive.
