Most people here seem to forget that ads is what pays for the free internet services. The main issue with them is not making the consent more explicit to the user. I think the business model: you either get this for free with ads and targeting, or otherwise you have to pay X, should be more common. I bet most people would pick the free option with ads and targeting.

> Just think about how massive these costs are. How much feature delivery will have to be delayed or foregone to support the additional architectural complexity?
I don’t know if the author has worked with micro services. MS solve a communication issue. If implemented semi-properly teams stop blocking each other and the overall result is _faster_ and _safer_ feature delivery to production because the scope a team (or tribe, etc) will be working on a smaller, isolated codebase. The challenge _usually_ is that now developers have to take the environment into consideration introducing new patterns (retries, structured logs, time outs, circuit breakers, possibly SLIs for other teams, distributed tracing, metrics, etc). Given a large enough org, someone will either adopt or write a micro-framework to handle all or most of them.
To re-iterate if introducing MS stalled feature delivery, then it is a premature decision. YMMV, of course as there are other reasons to isolate part of the code base (e.g. compliance).
I got to understand from personal experience that the anti-SOA people are usually the ones who stayed at the same company their entire carers, never saw any model other than the monolithic one, see SOA as a threat to their domain knowledge within the company and simply are not able to see its downsides (because they have adapted their ways of work around it and never experienced anything better).
Yes he does, there are tonnes of articles about the CO2 emissions, at the end of the day the only reason this is interesting is because Musk was so thin skinned (and hypocritical) about the whole situation that this became news. It's probably one of the best examples of Musk creating a problem out of nothing. No one cares about Zuck's private jet, because at the end of the day he's done a fantastic job of being extremely boring.

Seems like a reasonable decision to me. Moderators are not owners.

I use ChatGPT throughout the day. I don’t find code completion very useful, but I ask questions about esoteric areas I’m unsure of, or about some numerical technique I’m trying to recall. It unblocks me faster than anything I’ve ever used and I’ve learned more about some topics in the last six months than in the last thirty years. The fact I can ask elaborative questions and get answers that are fairly deep and nuanced is remarkable. Code it emits is often specious but fairly close to usable, more than enough to open a door for me in what used to be hours of fruitless searching and reading countless stack overflow answers telling the questioner they’re asking the wrong question and answering something unrelated instead.
That you guys aren’t finding the value tells me you’re using the tool wrong and likely have already decided with prejudice, because I have primary experience that once you try to figure out how it’s useful, you’ll find remarkable utility waiting. It’s ok, man. I’m sure many folks found the computer useless too.
The quality of the answers is often too poor to be used as reference.

C# already had all the advantages of Go (more or less) and more, yet Go is still growing. This has nothing to do with the technical capabilities of the languages.
C# GC, MS and external libraries, build, docs, tools support (especially for Linux) are all worse than Java.

Why do you doubt that at all? It's literally what the parent comment suggested doing: Keeping track of different people and getting a sense for who impacts business outcomes versus who is all talk. This is what people do in general. It's not some magical skill that only engineers can have. We all observe who gets things done and learn who can't follow through over time.
These ideas that only engineers can see how things work and that once we're promoted to management we just become dumb robots incapable of seeing reality is ridiculous.
> Politics over the last 10 years come to mind. Bad behavior is often rewarded. Doesn’t mean you should partake, but I don’t call it cynicism as much as realism.
Politics isn't the workplace. If you're using hot-button public politics spanning the country as an analog for teams working together in a workplace, you're going to end up with some deeply flawed mental models of how management works.
You are not promoted to manager. It is a different career choice, but the fact that you see it that way explains a lot about your position.

For better or worse, open source software is competing with paid software, so expectations for basic support and maintenance need to exist. If there is not enough capacity for this, the maintainers should make it clear upfront in very visible ways so people can use that information when deciding what to use.

It would be extremely useful to be able to filter per country, as not all remote opportunities are available in all countries, but I guess a feature like this would have to involve data submission from the companies themselves.
