I am both a career developer and experienced team manager. from first hand experience the 1.5x im getting from AI is not flowing down to my team / org because why would i output 50% more when the pay environment and leadership are already underwhelming. That additional 50% productivity goes completely to side projects built on my second computer between 9-5 tasks

I am currently waiting to take delivery of a 14" M1 MBP. I assume the move here is to cancel it and order the newer one?

As in the technology is available to make many 'off the shelf' tractors self-driving. I have no info on actual uptake just that there are components available to make 'normal' driving in to self-driving using third party modules

I specifically wanted to learn meditation several years ago and used the headspace app to do so. After going through their several basic programs and then the various 'pro' levels I stopped needing the app to meditate.

The app was invaluable to learn how to sit quietly and control my mind but after like ~2 / 3 months it stopped being useful as I was much less interested in the 'medititaion for running" "meditation for relationships" etc. I just wanted to learn the basics and not apply the meditation to a specific topic. For that it was great. As with anything though, YMMV

yea that makes sense. That's why I always wonder if there's a GOOD way to force simplification

I often try to think of a rule that would require simplified bills without just having arbitrary limits. Like, wouldn't it be nice if each thing voted on had to be less than 8 pages (for example) in length instead of 3000. I'm sure there is some downside though like how will we fit all the pork in to this vote??!?

oof (from the link). Debugging nightmare to have a fairly inexperienced team trying to diagnose stuff in these incredibly complex systems.

> 4 SREs managing Nomad, Consul, and Vault for 11,000+ nodes across 22 clusters, serving 420+ internal developers

> "We have people who are first-time system administrators deploying applications, building containers, maintaining Nomad. There is a guy on our team who worked in the IT help desk for eight years — just today he upgraded an entire cluster himself."

I'm not sure that is still the case. I have an OP-Z and lurking forums for that device reveals tons of posts about build / hardware issues. Luckily my secondhand unit only has SOME broken components but it's pretty widely known as an incredibly fragile device with many design flaws

Not related to hollywood but I worked wildland fire for the local sheriff for a couple years and the 'mandated lunch breaks' were pretty much bullshit. MAYBE 15 minutes to stop and eat (often not even sitting down), then get back to work but had to report at least a half hour of unpaid downtime on the shift report at the end of the day. No wonder that area expertise is also hemorrhaging skilled workers. Luckily it was only part time for me but those guys are really getting fucked over between low pay and the ridiculous breaks

To go a bit further MSM's ad revenue is being hollowed out by Facebook et al. Why would anyone pay to advertise in Economist when they can advertise to "people interested in economics, earning over 150k, last thought about cigarettes three weeks ago" etc.

Similarly, if you were an advertising exec at pfizer, would you choose to pay millions of dollars to advertise your meds to a continuously shrinking audience on something like CNN, or would you spend significantly less directly targeting "oldsters who need meds" on FB or Goog's platforms?

I'm a huge cynic but it seems like most of the critiques of social media coming from big / old media are just symptoms of having their revenue bled away, not any meaningful calls for change for the better

My dad likes to remind me that he was 'working remote' (had a dial up modem and two factor auth in to whatever he was doing at AT&T/Ameritech) back in the early 2000s

> less symptoms == less transmissibility

doesn't really hold up when asymptomatic spread (no symptoms at all) has been one of the main concerns for the entire pandemic

Relevant Jared Dillion (former goldman sachs I think, now a newsletter guy) tweet from yesterday:

> This may seem hard to believe, but there is more money to be made being long fraud rather than short fraud in the stock market.
