To be fair, you don't actually need to know Docker beyond being able to follow a tutorial.

Who comes up with this shit. If someone is sick they shouldn't come to work at all, ever. You should encourage people to stay home so they don't get others sick. If they can manage, have them do a little work from home.

Moving from a small (10 person) company to a building with 1000 people in it I went from almost never being sick to getting sick 3+ times every winter.

Strongly encourage your employees to stay home when they're sick as long as they're getting their jobs done. If they're out frequently or for a long period of time (4+ days) require a doctor's note. That's your sick policy. Done.

It seems kind of funny that an open source project can't find an open source form of communication.

It's like being your own lawyer. It's possible, and in the past it was much simpler — but things are so complex now that it doesn't ultimately seem worth it. As complexity grows so does reliance on specialists.

Corporatism in this sense is really just monopolization of capitalism, which in itself is a symptom of unchecked capitalism.

I guess you could contract with your neighbor and run your own lines to their batteries?

Sure, but that doesn't change the fact that the practice is kind of fucked up on a conceptual level.

I can't stress this enough: learn how to cook tofu. I held off on being a vegetarian so long because I had a bad tofu experience, but I eat it 2-3 times a week now and I've grown to prefer over chicken. Fry it, braise it, bake it... there are a lot of options. Mushrooms are a similar story.

My diet is primarily: Rice, beans, tofu, mushrooms, and various greens. I've never really been a salad person, and even as a vegetarian that's still generally true.

Yeah it's a bit hit or miss because of that — I really wish I could literally make my bookmarks a private Google of content I've seen. Usually there are a series of things I try like "I think it was on X site" or a few keywords that I think were in the title. It works for me maybe 80% of the time.

This has always been my understanding as well. I've always tried to write HTML in a manner that would remove all presentational aspects to the point that I could redesign an entire site by changing the CSS only.

37% isn't exactly mainstream... to contrast, flexbox is at 97%

I use them in Chrome all the time, I have thousands — I basically search them as kind of a personal google... for those "Oh I remember reading an article about that once, let me find it"

How about we take the ego out of Marc Andreessen

I like some weird looking cars, but this thing is just an ugly sedan

I need to use the Adobe Creative Suite (or a mainstream alternative like Sketch). Literally the only reason I can't switch to linux.

Before anyone even starts — GIMP is not viable in enterprise workflows.

because it doesn't make them any money

Probably safe to say that those fringe cases aren't representative of the full slew of 8,000 people here.

It could carve out a niche, but it would never compete. They don't have the money Google has by a vast longshot.

They didn't need to sum up the full canon, they needed to like... have any part of it? The original animation accomplished more with the story in less time.

eeeehhhhh

I'm with you on this. The bloatware in modern operating systems, even once you take away the PC-vendor garbage, is appalling.

I feel like they could keep things the way they are, and offer an AOSP-like vanilla version for people who generally know what they're doing (Google does a pretty good job with limiting it).

I'd pay hundreds of dollars more for this software option (have previously considered hiring someone to do it in the past on a new PC, but I have had bad experiences with PC repair shops).

I bought my spouse a new PC and literally had to spend HOURS removing software and decoupling McAffee from Windows. An i5-based system was out of the box crippled while it downloaded updates and software from the Windows store that I didn't even want to begin with.

OSX is markedly better, but I don't need siri, icloud, chess, ilife, dvd player, photo booth... the list goes on.

We'd do just as bad, but differently. Time makes fools of us all.

You're just going to see more remote work. No one's going to want to lose those profits once they have them.

That's an interesting comparison — we could very well end up in a market where existing manufacturers catch up and vastly outsell Tesla in the long-run (Android), and Tesla ends up as a very successful luxury model (iOS).

I didn't say manipulation was evil, just pointing out that manipulating someone and calling it love seems more like abuse than love.

>"We've underinvested in the driver experience," a senior official said. "We are now re-examining everything we do in order to rebuild that love."

This is a pretty troubling way to phrase using behavioral science to manipulate your employees.

You're taking an unknown known and making it a known known.

I'd rather an exploit stay secret so there's a chance that someone doesn't use it against me, rather than telling everyone the exploit and hoping someone fixes it fast enough.

Disclose it to the company, and give them a hard time limit.

In Japan they might be a little delayed. In Boston the trains just don't come at all. One time I was stuck on a train for four hours because a switch was frozen (normally a 40 minute trip).

I know this is just a bunch of kids taking the piss, but little things like this make a boring day working on the train a bit happier. Thank your local transit workers if you have them.
