How is there absolutely no further comment about that in their RCA? That seems like a pretty major thing...

Personal accountability

That’s never been my observation. Tech people are some of the most arrogant people I’ve encountered, often asserting things outside of their domain. The delusion that being right in one area makes them right in other areas is real.

It’s the whole circle jerk about STEM being the ultimate degree fields in university, while humanities and liberal arts are looked down upon and sneered at.

This sentiment is so incomplete as to be utterly useless outside of a very narrow scope.

Good engineers are right a lot very specifically within their technical competency.

Simply saying "good engineers are right a lot" has pretty clearly resulted in a large group of people who think that because they're right a lot about things within their field, that quality of 'being right a lot' extends to things outside of their field, and that is terribly wrong as often as not. The hubris and entitlement that I've seen engendered in people who take this creed too seriously is really something to behold. It's part of what directly leads to the 'techbro' stereotype.

No, Kyle, just because you're right a lot about all things relating to Rust does NOT mean you know a fucking thing about economics, healthcare, or whatever the hell else it is you espouse your strongly held opinion on.

You're an ace at reading comprehension, friend. What part of 'if there's fraud it should be prosecuted' was missed by you?

My interpretation of OP's comments was as a call to sympathy. I'm saying I have very little.

If there's fraud, then prosecute it legally. But I am in no way obligated to feel any sympathy to investors getting fleeced. It's their responsibility to do their own due diligence, and if they're getting taken in for, I am hard pressed to give a shit.

Hard to believe his company was okay with paying for all of this, but neat! I’m jealous.

Not just networking issues, there are plenty of reports with external drives having problems as well.

Oh, I am so, so sad that this can’t be done remotely :( MASSIVE football fan, Burnley in particular. Go Clarets!

He’s absolutely correct about the ridiculous complexity of cloud tooling. The number of services, features, knobs, etc., available in AWS is borderline comical. I’m skeptical that half of the products they have really fill a gap and solve problems people had. Who’s asking for all of these new services that are constantly being rolled out? There’s so much cruft in their product offerings. Promotion at AWS is kind of like how it is at Google now, where a product is launched because someone needs to get their L8, not because customers are asking for it.

You can’t be that naive, can you? It’s obviously not the Tweet they’re worried about. They think the Tweet is indication that he supports Hamas enough to aid or promote them secretly. “If this guy is this outspoken publicly for his support of Hamas, what must he be doing to support them behind closed doors? Does he donate to them? Organize for them?”

Whether or not that’s enough to search him is another debate, but that’s what their thought process was when they decided to detain him.

Good lord, did that ever strike me as pretentious and cliche.

…right. Don’t blame the manufacturer for making shitty drives, blame tech review sites for testing those drives with the tools available and reporting the results of those tests. This is some 4D level victim blaming shit. I’m almost impressed at the absurdity of this argument.

I see the logic here, but I’m highly skeptical about how valid such a tool would be.

If a researcher comes out and says, “Surveys show that people want X, and they do not like Y,” and then others ask the researcher if they surveyed people, the answer would be “no.”

Fundamentally, people wanting feedback from humans will not get that by using your product.

The best you can say is this: “Our product is guessing people will say X.”
