I’m saying that many jobs require frequent travel. Software engineers will need to attend meetings in other offices, salespeople will be out with potential customers, customer success staff will embed in other offices, people at all levels and in all functions will need to travel. CEOs need to travel too; if you think the CEO of Amazon or similar sized businesses can do their job from a small office, I would wager you haven’t been very close to the demands of C-level in a business that size.

What makes you think I’m defending Amazon’s CEO to somehow protect my own future? I’m arguing that many jobs require travel, and that’s also the case for any CEO.

I personally work in a fully remote business that has never been anything but fully remote. I’ve made my bed and I’m laying in it very well thank you.

I’ve been fully remote since COVID and have successfully argued for my team staying fully remote. I don’t for a second buy that a team works better in person, provided you make the right changes to your culture to ensure remote works.

I’m a fan of remote.

But come on, thats false equivalence and you know it. Of course a CEO isn’t in his office 5 days a week; mostly likely he is travelling 3 weeks out of 4 and the last week he is actually in his nearest office. You would expect a CEO to move around their business. If they sat in an office every day they wouldn’t be doing their job.

Look at the job description and then decide if a role can be non-office-based.

The point makes sense if you’re inside Putler’s mind I’m sure; if you can’t win the game you’re in, change the rules. He’d rather be feared and no 1 asshole than being a mid tier economy in the western game.

100% Micro. Unless you’re only - and mean ONLY - living in the terminal, why would you want all your desktop and terminal shortcuts different from one another?!

I doubt it’s ever peaked at more than 3 GB usage, even with 18 containers running.

If it ran an Electron app it would need an upgrade.

Kinda similar to my self-hosted server; 24 core, 32GB - peak number of concurrent users ever hosted is 3.

Sort of the same here. Our 17 and 14 year olds were the last in their classes to get one and I still felt it was too early.

And for those without kids, here’s my actual story about what smart phones do to children: I was recently visiting an enormous aquarium abroad; just tank after tank of impressive displays.

As we arrived we realised, ok wow, shark feeding is literally now, let’s go watch it. It had obviously drawn an enormous crowd of families but eventually we got ourselves into a position where we could see. And then my wife tapped my shoulder and pointed and I noticed what she had noticed: At prime viewing position, on these pedestal sort of things, we’re sitting a row of teenagers, all of them, to the very last boy and girl, hunched over and staring at their smartphones.

LITERAL SHARKS WERE BEING HAND FED RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM and they couldn’t give a shit because PHONES!!!

Got two teenagers. I’d outlaw smart phones for anyone under 18 if it was up to me. Bring the flame!

May I gently ask if you have children in the phone age range?

I have never seen anything with such a hold over teenagers.

Wholeheartedly agree with TFA. People who claim Firefox should go all in and block everything and return no data to advertisers need to explain how Firefox should continue to fund development.

 

I’d love it if client-side processing could collapse these posts into one.

 

Given both kbin and lemmy are part of the fediverse, I would expect to be able to subscribe to https://kbin.social/m/tech by searching for [email protected] - but nothing shows up.

What am I doing wrong?
