I’m not putting any work stuff on by home computer. I’m not giving work admin rights to that.
Why? Amazon seems to have built an amazing system with AWS, but does it need the same amount of staff time to maintain it that it needed to develop it?
If Amazon acknowledges that it isn’t going to be developing new products to the scale it did for the past decade, it probably doesn’t need the headcount it had before.
Or you had several companies try to start their own streaming services from scratch and thought you needed a ton of new shows to fill it. Disney+ could have easily gotten away with archived Disney Channel shows, all the animated Disney cartoons, the old Star Wars & Marvel movies, and the Simpsons. It didn’t need a lot of the new shows, no matter how cool they looked.
If graphics were with it, people would pay for it.
The fact of the matter is that exponential graphics capabilities requires an exponential input of developer and asset creator budget. Given that there is a ceiling on game prices, it isn’t worth it going for higher fidelity games when the market isn’t going to pay for it.
They lasted longer than Alitalia? Good for them.
Banning cell phones for soldiers on the front line has become common since the phone transmissions are used as bombing targets.
However, the blackout of YouTube for the civilian populace is mainly for control purposes, especially as Ukraine is fairly active on YouTube.
I’ve seen some content creators having a discord channel that is pay to get into where the content creator participates in it as a way to generate additional money. I suspect Reddit wants to do something similar and take a cut of fee.
And I fully expect this to devolve into becoming a new OnlyFans.
Got to get content somehow.
I feel like the option has been working in a bullpen like area for one or two days a week.
You get a lot more of the small questions that people ask in person but seem resistant over Teams or a phone call.
You also get to hear other interactions, which can be valuable. Seeing someone else go through a new task can be a learning experience, or you can see someone else struggling with a task and help them.
You don’t really get that in corporate mandated fun time, and introverts need the time to better get to know others as they slowly open up. That said, the value of face time goes down from 2 days a week and there is some value in having alone work time.
Yeah. If management isn’t going to show up, then there isn’t a reason for everyone else to show up.
That said, there are benefits to having some face time with people that you don’t get from full remote. It just has to be done in a thoughtful way.
They probably didn’t even plan for it. They just bought it and it kept getting bigger.
All a spider needs is an instance to download everything.
Do you trust anyone claiming to be self taught with the responsibility to design something that, if it fails, will cause billions in economic damage? Not the people you know, anyone who claims to be self taught?
Do we allow for self taught doctors or accountants?
Also, these regulations aren’t being developed for all servers, just ones that can cause major economic damage if they stop functioning. And you don’t need everyone to be qualified to run the service. How many water treatment pants are there where you only have a small set of managers running the plant, but most people aren’t licensed to do so?
Isn’t that the reason why Amazon gutted their Alexa development team? It turns out there isn’t business case for Alexa.
Why not? It is still valuing the self education of people. It just means having a license to manage the system requires people with significant experience.
And it isn’t like a degree alone is required for licensure.
Some states let some people get professional licensure through experience alone. It just ends up taking more than a decade of experience to meet the equivalent requirements of a four year degree.
Or it needs to be a profession.
Licensed professional engineers are expected to push back on requests that endanger the public and face legal liability if they don’t. Software has hit the point where failure is causing the economic damage of a bridge collapsing.
Is it still? The VC funding has started drying up and every tech company has started worrying about profitability now. I think the old innovate or die mantra has played itself out.
And IBM & Motorola diminished in part because they stuck to older industries where cost became as important as innovation and didn’t lower their cost.
