You want to cut the federal debt, where should we look to where the wealth has been hoarded?

I use BW for all my personal stuff because my wife and I use it.

Why not do this for every country? This type of support should be required for mass layoffs.

I understand the strategic impact of such large decisions but I don't understand why these types of programs can't be implemented in the 21st century even if laws need to necessitate such programs existence.

This is an elaboration on the experience of abhorrent engineering culture at this company. From people who can't professionally speak with one another to a manager who cannot seem to effectively solve the core issues underlying the problems at the company. Instead of a moment of reflection on HOW to improve the root cause of the problem, it feels like they're kicking that can down the road.

Two things I'd like to point out:

1. It's nice to see some form of humbling commentary from the author; albeit, I don't think it targets the right solution to the problem.

2. I still think there's a lesson here for any org to digest and that is communication is such a vital and integral part of "a raising the tide lifts all boats", so to speak.

So your engineers will get a productivity salary increase, right? RIGHT?!

Watch how quickly that turns the conversation around.

This argument lawmakers have here is entirely built upon the straw man. I understand the deep yearning to protect children but all this won't make the criminals stop using the tools that are currently legal. They will continue to use them. Making them "illegal" won't make them stop using them because they can still be acquired.

If I wanted an IDE, I'd switch to the terminal version of Emacs.

For this to work well, toxicity needs to be nonexistent. I would even advocate for a "no tolerance" for toxic comments/behavior from peers/colleagues.

We put solar on our house and did some pretty rigorous research into the tech precisely because of this concern. After spending many nights/hours understanding the tech in this industry, I can confidently say it matters less about the current generation of solar tech. But, while the degree of quality in solar products exist, what really matters are the contractors that install it. I did not read the articles and I don't want to claim that there's direct causation by contractors, but if I were a betting man, I'd easily put money on the quality of the installation as opposed to the actual tech provided.
