I'm sorry that just comes across as unprofessional, weak and passive aggressive. If someone started doing that on my team I'd take it as part of the case against them not a reason to fight to keep them. Also presumably that's in ear shot of other team members, it's disruptive to team morale. If you are serious about looking elsewhere, make it clear you want to stay but xyz is making you consider other options. Do it in private with the right people. Or say nothing at all.

Very principled of you. Not sure management would be as ethical.

Do you mean the later levels are bigger and more confusing in black mesa?

Genuine question, as I own both versions and don't know which to play.


I sort of agree with you. But the sentiment reminds me of the hacker news dropbox launch response. Which was pretty much

"pfft! I could set all this up myself with a NAS xyz".

This is an odd coincidence, I went back to Linux recently because win 11 driving me nuts. Unfortunately I've got two problems that just seem unsolvable.

Unstable wifi network connection and temporary image retention if I use variable refresh rate.

I'm on mint Linux, Nvidia 1660 super, tp link usb WiFi. Other users reporting the same. Back in 2010 on another pc I had the same issues with WiFi on mint.

I don't have the time to mess with this stuff.

I'm considering win 11 lts. I really would prefer not to.


Slightly related, if like me you have gone far to far down the emulation rabbit hole and find that you are now onto FPGA emulation, you might enjoy:

I really want to get these working on my steamdeck too but it looks like a lot of work.


ROG Ally X vs. ROG Xbox Ally X.

Also, it is possibly the worst console name of all time.

I don't even know what Xbox is now, is it a service, is it a console, I'm not even joking really.

Also visual studio code Vs full fat visual studio. Thanks Microsoft you just made it more difficult to web search both products.

Full fat .Net Vs dotnet core Vs standard or is that .net.


There was also Visual Studio, the Mac app that got renamed and wasn’t the same as Visual Studio, the windows app

Possibly, but you don't know that and you are stating it as fact.

One of my main problems with all of this is "what counts as social media". It's a stupidly broad term. Email? SMS? Forums?

I think it’s pretty easy to write a law that doesn’t include email and sms. They have no engagement algorithms.

Forums require a little more finesse - but a good starting point is distinguishing upvotes from personalized engagement-based algorithms.

Basically I don’t buy that your concern is a problem in practice.

Edited to add - here is the guidance for Australia’s law for reference: https://www.esafety.gov.au/about-us/industry-regulation/soci...


I think if people were forced to invest their pensions in shitty EU stocks there would be push back. Also moving public sector pensions into EU stocks won't deliver the growth required, they are already unsustainable.


But there's a chicken and egg effect here in that the stock prices are low because of low investment and the stocks are bad because the stock prices are low.

For instance, Meta has basically doubled in price from a few years back but their business is basically identical. Doesn't seem very efficient to me, at least.


I doubt that. Investment firms exist to find an edge. Any mispricing would be eventually exploited because the incentive to do so is so huge. That's what value investing is.


Can someone explain what he is actually suggesting? What $300B he is talking about, and on what it will be invested in instead.

Also why is he wearing sunglasses?


I think $300B is about everything. Pension funds, investment, military spending etc.

The glasses are due to eye redness.
