Re:Transparent Telemetry for Open-Source Projects

The only way I'd consider this, is if the telemetry my app generated is available to me or can be rerouted to another target. If so, please add this ASAP. Otherwise, I'll stick with my own observability stack.

They're giving the appearance that they're working on marvels. Given the amount of raw human intelligence they've hired over the years and the profoundly underwhelming output of the organization it's pretty clear it's was an illusion to trap investors.

Can you provide more details on this? I decline to use a number of apps supported by Facebook and Google but have yet to have anyone refuse to hire me because of that.

Thank you, I was about to comment it's not a service it's a product. And frankly this has always been the case they were just more subtle about it in the past.

I've been using this instead of the password store for over a decade now.

Works every time and is portable as hell.
How are people still using password lockers?

Re:When Those Who Know Won’t Share

You've obviously never worked in an environment with intentionally ignorant or lazy workers. I'm all about sharing knowledge and supporting your teammates. But I've recently discovered people who are simply leaches. They've discovered that they can get by on generosity of others. My boss sat me down earlier this year and reprimanded me for spending too much time essentially doing other people's work for them. It never occurred to me that people would do this intentionally but now that it's been pointed out to me I see these people everywhere.
Re:Why Germany Is Better at Training Its Workers
on Friday October 17, 2014 @12:16AM (#8469405)
There is no contradiction. You're assuming the American model. German workers and their unions work hard to ensure that they're always updating their skills. I worked in Germany for 8 years and I'd estimate that at least 10% of a workers time over a year is spent on training updates and cross training. They're dead serious about keeping workers for life.

Why is it that you can't go to a medical facility and tell the intake nurse or admin person you're not agreeing to any procedure that's not covered by your insurance. Wouldn't that put the onus back on them? Anything not covered instantly becomes a freebie or a lawsuit?
Why do hospitals and clinic get away with this crap when auto mechanics and plumbers can't?

Seriously, I've read these about twice a year since they came out. His Chaos series is very good too. More fantasy than sci-fi tho.
