> At the end of it, they were sketching a completely different architecture without my "PMing". Because they finally understood who was actually using our product.

I cannot help but read this whole experience as: “We forced an engineer to take sales calls and we found out that the issue was that our PMs are doing a terrible job communicating between customer and engineering, and our DevOps engineer is more capable/actionable at turning customer needs into working solutions.”

Good. All Engineers should deal with the clients directly.

Which is ironic since Max Planck experienced a staggering amount of change in science that did not require anyone dying, took place over just a few decades here and there, and was extremely fruitful.

Born 1858, died 1947, pretty much everything known about anything changed somewhat in that time period, and he was literally part of a lot of it, and helped convince people and change their minds without them dying.

Almost like the quote is utter bullshit.

Almost like its a colloquial phrase of Plancks writings, that represents how the quantum revolution played out for so many people.

The Democratic Party is a complete disaster. When they pushed out David Hogg, rather than embracing him, it was over for me.

Funny, ejecting him was one of the very few smart things the party has ever done.

Why does he need to talk to someone in the travel industry to evaluate the experience of traveling? Yes, we all agree with Louis CK that just being able to fly is a marvel. But it still sucks and it has gotten worse.

I'd be open to working on it if they actually want to pursue it and want to provide contact info for whatever subgroup handles the comms/networking.

"still issues with things like sound equipment"

For the $500 entry fee you would think they could provide earphones and someone would hack together an app that would let you listen through those earphones based on some sort of proximity detection. No doubt the first year someone would find a vulnerability in it and would need parallel deployment to the existing infrastructure, but still.

Hacker culture has always been left leaning, lol. Open source is a grand anarchist experiment.

You expect hackers to be like, "we love capitalism! We love strong hierarchies!"? Don't be daft.

> Hacker culture has always been left leaning

No it hasn't. It started as counterculture. 90's hacker ethos might as well make you a fascist these days.

energy out changes though. By focusing only on energy in you miss half the equation

Last time I checked, I don't control my metabolism with a dial. I do control what enters my body through my mouth
