elon musk: hello human resources
This is not limited to just pushing code but all the bells and whistles that github added as features under the assumption of some predictable growth are now exceeding the original plans.
I suspect a lot of their existing systems have to be re-architected for unanticipated scale, and it won't happen overnight for sure.
if you want to be an activist, take these weird positions
the guy on gab is also a human being with the same number of rights and deserving of the same empathy, freedoms, representation, etc. as the trendy oppressed group on instagram but is generally treated as dirty
obviously i am not suggesting that they post on low traffic platforms, but everything substantial and important happens on x, believing otherwise is delusional
just shows that these groups are not as egalitarian as they purport to be
Then there's a lot of legacy stuff that needs to continue working because otherwise you end up with a non backwards compatible windows.
Then you have to get everyone at microsoft across all their bajillion products to change the UI from Task manager to the 5th level of settings for some obscure ODBC connector.
It's not going to happen I suspect
In reality the starting point itself is something absurd like "all vendors must be ISO certified no exceptions"
Nobody wants to be the person who says an exception is ok in this case, so you get lumped with having to certify.
Now your color palette generator startup is doing ISO certification. You are holding quarterly "information security governance meetings" and maintaining a risk register for... "blue vs slightly different blue".
Many such cases.
The world doesn't work based on abbreviations. It's very normal for any company to ask you for ISO 27001 whether international or otherwise.
You build something great and big corporation X wants to buy a subscription but you need to be certified.
Much of this is a good checklist but some of it is very european.
"Where is the risk register to track controls in your 7 person company?"
Now instead of doing what your team does best, you are doing paperwork theater for frameworks designed for a 100,000 employee enterprise.
You are documenting things nobody will read, making up processes that don't exist and translating the operations of a lean company into bureaucratic language.
What's needed is a variant of these standards for small teams, which is proportionate and pragmatic.
The minimum useful data for this stuff is a small table of language | WER for dataset
they both ran the same program of "you disagree with me therefore you are immoral and your reputation must be destroyed"
