- All the RIRs are, in my experience, a very consistent and safe set of hands. This sort of things is vanishing rare to the point of borderline inconsequence by many providers of major internet infrastructure. The fact they care enough to take it seriously and publish shows how much they care about getting it right.
I just completed a fairly major reorganisation of resources with RIPE, and I’ve interacted with them for two decades, and my experience is they remain as steady and consistent as ever.
Sure, you may not like a particular policy at some moment, or may not agree with the charging structure at some point in time when it’s not advantageous to you, but they do at least do what they say and say what they do.
- This is the cost of complacency. They were ahead for so long then the likes of Roborock just left them in the dirt. I remember the first time I tried one of the Roborock devices, and until then I have been a long time Roomba user (like, 20 years). I just couldn’t believe how much better it was. And iRobot just stubbornly refused to iterate on their fundamental products.

- Any experienced procurement or FP&A team will be doing this
- InDesign also includes Pantone and is the logical go to for anyone who truly cares about modern DTP
- It’s the horizontal integration across Entra, not the Office experience, that is the lock in
- I love that this very point is in fact one that it generated against itself!

Spooky…
- Well that’s quite exciting :)
I sank a non-trivial amount of time in my younger years in to both Settlers and Settlers 2. I’m hoping now that it’s not rose tinted memories!

- An internal audit is how you go from gap assessment to ready for external audit.
External auditors should be selected by looking for ones who themselves are audited by your regional government auditing body. Eg if you wanted to be audited and certified for ISO27001, and you happened to be in UK, you may choose BSI as your external auditor, who themselves are audited by UKAS.
It’s a web of trust model.
The purpose of these certificates are to shortcut compliance checks by your customers (or in some cases suppliers).
- If you want to get a really good feel for these functions, you can do worse than pick up a financial RPN calculator like the HP 12C. It is largely unchanged since it was introduced in the early 80s but it’s highly functional aesthetic and purpose make for a great experience if you like to learn something new that is also genuinely useful. Personally, I keep one of these in my bag. It’s great for meetings where financials are on the table and you also don’t want the distraction of a full desktop OS around you.

- I agree with you, however, layoffs and performance management are different things though.
If an employee is not being productive, that is a performance management issue and a good company will start by trying to fix it and if that doesn’t work will replace them. A bad company will retain bad performing people.
Layoffs are when you don’t have the work for them or you can’t afford something so are restructuring or similar. A good company will make layoffs and restructure if the economics require it. A bad company will keep going without doing that, ignoring their finances.
- Or used to :(
