Versus.com is useless. There’s no value in their comparisons.

Preferring simplicity in your smartphone doesn’t make you simple.

And what phone doesn’t need a battery replacement after a few years?

I don’t care about the beauty and I think some android phones are prettier, but iPhone hardware is ludicrously fast and that’s one of the reasons I have one.

He wants shitbag, astroturf, conservative, fascist “personalities” to be able to respond to and every prominent non-fascist post where they can be promoted to the top of the replies.

As a bonus, it will also help the astroturfing oil companies better kill environmental efforts.

I thought it used to be pretty solid. Not as solid as Gamer Nexus, but totally acceptable and significantly better than the vast majority of tech reviews. But that hasn’t been true for awhile.

Gaming and tech “journalism” would benefit so much from reducing the snark over their currently obnoxious levels.

Is that An official call? Seems suspicious.

Will cancelled movies matter if people keep their streaming subscriptions?

Those image captchas are useless. “Prove you’re a human by identifying bicycles exactly the same as our AI identified them.” Of course an AI is better than a human at identifying them the same way as an AI.

Having worked a summer job as a clean room protocol inspector during construction of a clean room I saw that the vast majority of construction workers there didn’t give two shits about violating even the most important protocols and would I regularly be threatened with violence for enforcing them. The various contracting companies didn’t care enough to fire them.

American construction workers definitely have the skills, but they would have to work to find ones that are more disciplined than the ones I worked with.

So what does work? You can set up sprints with what seams like reasonable amounts of work and engineers will still miss their target occasionally. Sometimes weeks in a row. And sometimes for very good reasons. It’s a lot easier to gauge if someone is actually working when you can actually see them and give them the benefit of the doubt.

But even if your only metric is how much people are banging away on a keyboard, then you would have to be being purposely obtuse to not be suspicious when a company working from home does way less than they do in the office and they get significantly more story points complete in the office than they did working from home.
