  • If you got the power to change what gets popular on Reddit and what doesn't, what would you change?

    Jump

  • I would add more automatic "poster location" tags and community voted "human" and "bot" tags.

    As for a more direct answer, I would make things that contribute to human compassion, knowledge, and how-tos. More stories that help people to build a better world. Fewer stories about people that are popular for being popular.

  • While I agree, this line of argument could be taken to bolster Sky Daddy's love for us and only us.

    The whole universe is so different from us, but our little bitty part is just right. Clearly, Sky Daddy made the particles our crude sense and instruments can detect just for us, but Sky Daddy truly is unknowable (and made of the other stuff).

  • I avoided DS9 for decades thinking it would have to suck. It didn't. I highly suggest a first play through of only Dominion War episodes. Then the characters grow on you. You wonder why anyone tolerates the mean Kai. So then you watch it in order.

  • There are more options than the two you mentioned. Listing a few as more people should remember them. I did get a bit off topic....

    1. Use huge company to provide service.
    2. Provide service oneself (, likely with Open Source. )
    3. Use small or medium company to provide service (, likely with Open Source. )
    4. Use huge company for things huge company is great with, but keep "crown jewels" of company on internal self provided systems.
    5. Use a small or medium company to provide a service, and another series of small or medium companies to check on the first company.
    6. Use a huge company based in a country that is very serious about laws and putting CEOs in prison for wrongful acts.
    7. Do not do the thing. (Included for completeness.)
    8. Do the thing not on a computer. (Violation of privacy could result in violation of more serious laws.)
    9. Use an older technology on a computer.
    10. Use the huge company to provide service, but ensure the data includes insane things.

  • business with a contract

    I always wonder at this and have cautioned my managers repeatedly. Yes, we have a contract, but they have a literal army of lawyers and we have less (one lawyer one retainer for hourly work or a small grouping focused on taxes and employment law). As if our ownership won't bend over backwards to avoid suing a large company like Google, AWS, Microsoft, or Oracle. (Maybe OpenAI and Anthropic are sue-able by a $100 million corp?)

    As proof I offer the lawsuits between businesses that have proceeded far enough the general public has heard about them. Not a specific one, just all of them.

    Ubuntu's trust problem in 4 concrete issues - verified facts, no FUD

    Jump

  • The best part of Ubuntu was improving Debian. In the beginning, Debian was a bit ugly and difficult. Ubuntu was competition, and perhaps resources (IDK) directly or indirectly. Debian is much easier to use than it was when Ubuntu was new.

    Ubuntu is taking the RedHat approach (over complicating so that one must buy the support).

  • Dealing with YOLO Vibelord colleagues

    Jump

  • Edit: I should explain first that I do not think you can change your employees or manager. A technical solution will never fix a management problem. Perhaps your manager is getting enough heat to be open to better management controls. You should be in "sanity protecting" mode.

    Original: While the posts include a lot of fiction, but "overemployed" crowd have some good advice. Start applying elsewhere, downshift your effort at $job_one, and move to collecting a check.

    Or ramp up and take your manager's job or get fired trying. Gather data and allies in the C-suit, and stage a coup. Or unionize (or post pro-union flies in the bathroom).

  • Weekend commits are actually less likely to introduce vulnerabilities, but they take 45% longer to fix.

    I can only think of contributors being nice and relaxed, doing their most brilliant work. Work that is a bit too brilliant for the same contributor to fix any bugs found during any other conditions.

    insert that one quote about being too smart for one's own good

    Edit: Weekend commits are 8% less likely to have bugs, but those bugs take 45% longer to fix! This site is gold.

    Edit 2: that may not mean what it looks like at first blush.

  • An unrelated bit cool about clay from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay_mineral.

    Given the requirement of water, clay minerals are relatively rare in the Solar System, though they occur extensively on Earth where water has interacted with other minerals and organic matter. Clay minerals have been detected at several locations on Mars,[15] including Echus Chasma, Mawrth Vallis, the Memnonia quadrangle and the Elysium quadrangle. Spectrography has confirmed their presence on celestial bodies including the dwarf planet Ceres,[16] asteroid 101955 Bennu,[17] and comet Tempel 1,[18] as well as Jupiter's moon Europa.[19]
