Again, you’re putting words in my mouth. I’m done engaging with you as I don’t think you’re conversing in good faith.

No one said anything is beneath senior employees.
It’s a lost opportunity when you, a staff engineer, spend your time doing something that a junior engineer could do – instead of doing a task a junior engineer can’t do.


It’s faulty, short-sighted logic though. If every company trained juniors, only for them to jump ship in two years, there’d be a pool of trained juniors to hire from. Yes you wouldn’t get your investment out of that particular person, but you’d be hiring someone else’s investment.
Beyond that, there’s work that is better suited to more junior employees because it’s literally a waste of the senior employees’ skills.


Too many industries are shitting on entry level employees now… They’re easy targets for layoffs and easy targets for AI, apparently. Now they’re already complaining about the lack of quality talent.
If you don’t invest in the next set of entry-level employees, you won’t have the next set of qualified employees.
The release notes mention why they request each one.
Thanks for your comment. I usually travel alone and was like “why would anyone subject themselves to AirBNB.” I appreciate the context and perspective.


Dude also used a LLM to generate descriptions for the packages he’s serving from his package manager. And of course, it got them wrong, creating a headache for the actual package maintainers


While we resourced mozilla.social heavily to pursue this ambitious idea,
How many people do you need to administer a Mastodon instance? I’m pretty sure infosec.exchange is like one dude.


Ah I was hoping for a western setting in the Warhammer universe, but it looks like Old World is high fantasy.


There’s no counterpoint in that article. The article says that things should change. At no point did I say I agree with the status quo.


You’re conflating my statement of “this is how you should expect companies to act” with “this is morally right” – which was literally the point of my original post. You’re either deliberately trolling or unable to engage in a respectful conversation. Have a day!
Edit: Oh and CircleCI is a US company, so you once again tried to change the topic to fit your point. Please learn to converse in good faith. Cheers!


“Within the limits of their discretion, directors must make stockholder welfare their sole end,” Strine wrote. “Other interests may be taken into consideration only as a means of promoting stockholder welfare.” – Chief Justice Strine, Delaware’s Supreme Court, 1985’s Revlon v. MacAndrews


It isn’t a shock. Right or wrong, if you call out your boss/board/investors, you should expect to be fired. Corporations are required to protect their shareholders, not make a moral stand. I hope the gentleman here understood that – when you choose to take a moral stand, it isn’t going to be without consequences. It’s one of the reasons we generally admire people who took a stand (and ended up judged “correct” by history).


I use Firefox full time but I’m bummed at the number of sites that break in odd ways when not using Chrome. As an engineer, I understand how appealing it is to only have to test in one browser, but this monopoly is the result.


It is interesting, but it’d also be cool to see Blizzard introducing their fanbase to one of the popular indie systems like Cypher, Cortex, etc.


Turnstile was announced over a year ago.
I don’t know about evil, but my results have been filled with AI generated crap sites lately. I don’t know if others are doing any better filtering them out, but it is making me think to look elsewhere besides ddg
Why are the three Chrome derivatives missing features Chrome has? Is it a porting issue or are they just that far behind on pulling in upstream changes?


DHH is a contrarian. Any benefits of the cloud he might get are overridden by the fact that he needs to be different (and blog about it).
See his stances on Typescript, workplace inclusion, TDD, etc.
2FAS is open source and doesn’t have a cloud presence to store data. You can use it to add 2FA to your other services as well.
