An old timer at my first job told me:
“Never take 2 week vacations. Everyone just saves work for your return. Make it 3 weeks or more so they just take care of things without you.”

Hearing that top candidates, even if unemployed, are turning down offers because some companies have tried to offer lower comp due to market conditions.
Companies - keep your talent bar high and don't overhire, but don't skimp on paying talent. You'll get what you pay for.

Para futuras referencias, fue pérdida de tiempo. Soporte Priority da excusas vagas de por qué pasa.
La estrategia es reactiva, tienes que llamar para que corrigan el problema y no hay intención de arreglarlo de raíz.
No usen pago de impuesto por TDC vía BMX Móvil, está roto.

Alguien conoce gente de sistemas en ?
Pagar impuestos referenciados por medio de la aplicación móvil puede ocasionar cargos duplicados.
Van dos ocasiones donde me dice que el pago fue rechazado y si pasó.
Soporte me dice que es “normal” 🤨

Over the years I have learned by experience that just having the answers is not enough.
How they get delivered, emphathetically, separates The Expert from the others in the mind of a customer.

I would pay for a SaaS subscription that allows me to find ripe avocados 🥑 at any point in time.
Heck, I would pay a premium to get them delivered.

It’s scary that Teams doesn’t seem so bad anymore besides the sporadic driver update before a meeting.
Looks like my adaptation has been completed 🐑
This works across cultures too.
People who have no idea how much they make an hour tend to put little value on time.

I have seen some instances where clicking the user profile picture takes you to another totally unrelated user.
This sucks but is the price of betting your future on narcissistic leaders.

Those fired got 4 weeks severance, by the way. A slap in the face, given that if they chose to not click "yes" to stay just a week ago, they would have gotten 3 months.
They might have believed in Twitter 2.0, but still got a worse deal than those who chose to simply leave.

Musk followers are like a cult justifying their misery with greatness.
Makes me wonder if this platform will survive in spite of the toxic leadership and (a lot of) brainwashed engineering working for the sake of a billionaire’s whim.

Scoop: Elon Musk just sent an email to all staff outlining "Twitter 2.0", writing it will"need to be extremely hardcore". Long hours, high intensity.
People need to click "yes" to confirm being part of this by 5pm ET tomorrow, else they get 3 months severance. More details:

I have not used Mastodon yet but that analogy told me everything I need to know 😂

As much as people are pushing Mastodon, the whole experience is like trying to get GPG/PGP to work.
Hey here's a load of servers, won't say much but yeah pick one. As much as distributed is good, there is a need for coherence too

First experience using Doom Emacs has been very positive.
If things continue to go this well I might end up moving from spacemacs 🤔
Very interesting thread that helps product teams on the bases that need to be covered for either moving into or from architecture paradigms.
Most of the time the problem lies in the expectations and ways we approach things more than the architecture paradigm per se.

I spoke with a team yesterday that is moving away from serverless in favor of managed k8s on aws
it wasn't an easy decision for them and they went through a thorough review of their architecture
the reasons they highlighted to me are:

What took Netflix well over decade to build and perfect, you could argue both Disney and HBO did 80% of it in a few years. App-wise, handling scale-wise, adapting streaming-wise.
Shows how quickly innovative tech can become commoditised, and rare tech skills become more common.

I only value authenticity if you’re not an asshole.
If you are an asshole, swallow that shit & bury it so deep inside that you’re the only one it poisons.

Don’t get confused about it.
The new super mario movie is just for kids as well as for us in our 30s that grew with the NES.
It is October, it is time for me to past this alltime classic yet again.
It will never not make me laugh
