- You should care about the work you do. Just remember who you are doing it for. They own the work they being the company. If the company wants to reward incompetent kleptocrats then I salute them as long as I get PAID the second they stops happening they can with the greatest of respect get f’d. then you just take your trade and apply it somewhere else having learned expensive lessons they paid for about what worked.
- Western countries do that to each other and within themselves. Maybe it’s not the west or countries it’s people.
- In some ways the west is still remarkably feudal but to the direct chain of managers not just directly to your “liege lord”. I regularly see people say no to big bosses who are outside the direct management even if they have high ranks.
- Always a classic.
- Islam will not take over France.
- Is this the same for Russia, China and India? Are political elites generally just older globally.
- Security operations centres for private companies that have lots of screens in them and tiered rows of desks. Bonus points if they have a podium at the front for briefings. Additional bonus points for having glass window view plane for visitors. Final bonus points for a button that converts the graphs on screens to a world map or some other BS when actual guests do arrive. It’s like some type of Apollo 13 fever dream.
- This signals they are not personally invested in commercial real estate or friends with people who are. Good for them.
- In the grim darkness of the present no one gets the context.
- Privacy but only when it suits us. This validates the use case.
- You should stop peddling vegan bro science. There’s nothing wrong with milk.
- The move slowly thing is likely to account for jerkiness as a thing people do is rush up the slide and wait at the catch position. You want to get to the catch without the inertia of being forced forward so you can raise your hands get ours in and then push. From a physics perspective there’s also the possibility that rushing up the slide forces the stern down faster breaking the about however that Varys massively and I don’t know about it being proven.
Regarding the order of operations after the catch that’s because a stroke is similar to power clean sitting down. You are effectively maximising the lever arc.
- Really great site would make solid Tik toks and YouTube shorts one technique a minute long. No joke can see this being useful for prompt engineering like for people making AI memes. It’s about knowing what to ask for.
- You should add .top
- And (mostly) low salaries with high taxes.
- Yes somewhat correct. That is for operations of critical public services such as civil registries. This was several steps beyond that. There was other reporting on this as well.
- Yeah like you say this isn’t a new phenomenon. In some cases they even try to shield themselves with legislation.
For example let’s look at Ireland.
[0] Ireland tries to exclude itself from GDPR https://www.thejournal.ie/data-protection-bill-2018-3853647-...
[1] Entire health system compromised and possibly majority of PHI data exfiltrated https://www.hse.ie/eng/services/publications/conti-cyber-att...
[2] Irish health service only begins notifications to confirmed affected individuals a year later https://www.hse.ie/eng/services/news/media/pressrel/hse-begi...
[3] selective punishment of companies whose data is breached eg google https://techcrunch.com/2022/03/14/dpc-sued-google-rtb-compla... vs meta https://www.dataprotection.ie/en/news-media/data-protection-...
Laws unevenly applied make a mockery of justice.

- “Strangest thing to me about the topic is that it’s obvious vast percentage of citizens within democracies wish they lived in an authoritarian country, yet choose to live in a democracy and use the liberties they’re provided to actively destabilize and destroy it.”
Yes agreed.
“Yes, I am aware current authoritarian countries wage propaganda campaigns, but in my experience such campaigns would be meaningless without an existing tendency to seek out authoritarian rule.”
Yes agreed.
“While likely flawed opinion, I do feel like one possible explanation is nationalism in general, since while many democratic countries will argue they believe in the rule of law, ultimately any non-citizen is treated as if they are within an authoritarian country and for sure not as citizens by default.”
Losing me. Non citizens aren’t citizens by default and therefore should in any country be extended the same rights. As they don’t bear the same responsibilities.
“Only once there are countries that treats all people equally and as citizens, will such an issue be addressed in my opinion.”
This is where I think the breakthrough was lost in my opinion. Having the realisation of the first few paragraphs but getting it backwards. All I have ever seen is a corrupting influence of some groups from authoritarian countries who move to democratic states only to attempt to take their brutal systems with them. Specifically here to avoid doubt I’m talking about Islamic and Chinese immigration both have in various countries setup their own police systems. This is wholly unacceptable and should not be tolerated in the same way Irish/Italian/Russian organised crime shouldn’t. Not saying it’s all people from a place or a “racial” thing cause there are many people trying to escape the regimes of their homes. However it’s clearly motivated by nationalism but by external nationalism. People taking pride in their own countries is a counter to this influence.
- It isn’t a democratic system. It’s clearly been infiltrated by both lobbyists as you say but also foreign powers. Further integration should be halted in my opinion until the undemocratic elements are dissolved and replaced with ethical moral means of representation if that doesn’t happen then we are at an impasse for which I see no future in this system. Personally I will not donate the labor my life to it. Everyone is free (for now) to do what they wish. Nothing is perfect but society should benefit those who benefit society not oligarchs and tyrants.
- So close to a breakthrough but you lost it at the end.
- Utterly irrelevant. That they or anyone should have any more of a say at planetary geo engineering over the one habitable planet our species reside on. Unless you believe in some sort of intellectual tyranny. What if the “smart” credentialed people were ones you didn’t agree with and proposed eugenics as a viable solution to over coming climate change would you be so quick then. I doubt it. Not trying to call you out here but this line of reasoning that they are an expert so get to do this is bonkers. Sure propose all you like but my lord no action.
- This and your other comment in this post are such spot on sage advice and align so well with my own experience I feel we must have worked in the same companies. Thank you for putting words to some things.
- Good question hard to bake all the context in. The area I have worked most in is operations where a technique/widget/process is needed to fix a problem present within the environment due to an external actor which otherwise couldn’t be identified/monitored/resolved. Also to clarify I’ve been lucky to be part of such skunk work projects never actually lead one.
- Definitely depends on the person. The amount of projects I’ve worked on that were dismissed by such people done anyway and invariably became the saving of the team/org/company is laughable. These always took longer as they were under resourced and the people working on it did because of belief not because it was good for their status in the company. The hallmark of these is the last minute surge in resourcing when management figures out they got it wrong. Sometimes I think it’s almost like they bought an option on saving themselves by badly resourcing something at the start.
- Yeah it was quite nice. They’d feed the fish too and they’d all scramble for it.
- Sadly time distorts historical grief. Take the Irish potato famine which was an opportunistic genocide by the British. It’s now punchline in jokes. Other example is Romes conquest of Gaul or the Mongolian conquest of anywhere.
- Chainlink. Ignore the community. Look at the work of those involved and the things they are building.
- It’s because it’s streaming I’d bet so really just a wrapper on;
