Your balancing the relationship you have with leadership to do what you are asked to do, just as you ask IC to do things they may want to do, with doing the best you can to maintain or improve the QoL for your team.

The author is right, the correct stance is... > “Yeah, <s>this new policy sucks</s> I don't agree with 100% of all decisions, I get it. It’s going to affect me in negative ways too.”

Then critically thirdly,

> "Lets work together to demonstrate why the new policy is a risk to the customer."

Everybody drives on the same roads to the office, everybody has to wake up early, everyone has KPIs they are trying to hit.

To get what you want the compelling argument is to the customer.

Authors example, there aren't enough desks. We'll do it, but this is the level of support we can provide customers. This customers project is going to become at risk based on if we do this because of these reasons. We'll go in, but in order for us to deliver what we do at home we need to be accommodated to provide the same thing on time, I've done an estimate on what we'll need do you want me to expense it?

It's not about changes hurting you, the change hurting your team, it's how it's going to hurt the customer.

The MLB VR app[1] is pretty neat. You can sit behind home plate with a virtual strike zone, track balls, launch trajectory, height, a bunch of stats as you watch the game play out in real time. Including live games.

A lot of the negative reviews are people confused it's not a game, it's to watch baseball games.

I can't say I'd watch a ton of games on it but I watched some playoff games on it.

Only complaint is that the players are just little cards running around the field. MLB has very good 3D tracking[2] of players on the field, if you could see a somewhat realistic model of players on the field that would be pretty amazing.

If they iterated on the concept I could see more people adopting it.

I checked out your blog and the archive link which is really cool. I think what I'd like to know is what's unique and different about the Tasmania LAN community that is interesting? Culture, food, games, language, is there something unique in that archive that adds to other LAN or games cultures?

I'd focus on the quality of the submission vs. the result it generates, or things like the time it's posted because the two are not always related.

Can't remember where I read this but essentially most Americans are single issue voters on the economy. They just pick their second most important issue when the economy is humming along nicely.

The economy has been fine for many peoples working lives during ZIRP. But when people feel like their struggling to afford diapers and cereal most other issues become secondary.
