Where I work we have eastern US (50%), very few UK (10%), and India (40%). Some of the Indian people have crap (for them) hours (1-9pm).
We have the spread so there's 24 hour coverage, and processes that take a while can have people working on them throughout the day.
For example this morning I overlapped with someone from India 8-10am for a handoff, and then gave them instructions for when they get in around midnight (my time).
When things are busier I start at 6am (and leave early) to have a little more overlap.
To get 6ish more hours of work in a 24 hour period it seems like a reasonable way to handle it to me.
Specifically we work with data migration and have to get things handled within specific periods of time, the extra around the clock work force is makes my life overall much much better.
If the auto transcribing and meeting notes count as AI, then it is extremely used in teams (and extremely useful).
Manuals are going to go away in performance cars too now that they're objectively lower performance.
It's all going to be DCT at the high end (perhaps creeping down), an automatics/CVTs.
It's a shame, I too love a manual, but it's less good for performance, and doesn't really save money for manufacturers any more (killing the low end).
That assumes that either:
1) you can reliably hire elite programmers and use AI for the rest
Or
2) a team with diverse levels of talents is worse than a team with all average talents
I have no opinion on the answer to those two questions, but it doesn't seem obvious to me that pure average talent would be better than a mixed talent team.
on my Dell Latitude and iPhone, Firefox is about the only thing going that isn't chrome/chromium under the hood
Firefox on iOS is just a re-skinned Safari, as are ALL browsers on iOS. I still use it since it keeps my tabs and browsing history in sync, but it's just Safari.
I wish it worked that way in practice, but from what I can tell the only mechanism to enforce the emoluments clause seems to be impeachment which appears to be pretty much a non starter.
Even still, 55+ GB for Windows is insane.
If it is illegal, it's only for running amuck of a pretty much unenforceable part of the constitution.
Another Trump window-licker. Great.
Could this be why my windows folder on my work laptop is 65+ GB? Maybe that Weezer video from Windows 95 is in there too.
They probably got mixed up because they were trying to game the first year?
It seems like they couldn't decide on 2017, which I assume would impact their final year of protection.
In the process they got mixed up and failed to keep things going in 2019.
So it wasn't about the $450, it was about the $x they'd get with that extra year of protection.
They probably gutted middle management, as this is exactly the type of thing a good middle manager will hassle people about until it gets handled.
Why would it be cheaper for the government to buy than the expected profit?
It'd be practically zero sum (technically it may get more use of the government purchases for expected profit under the current system, but it'd be a very very expensive purchase, and one that would benefit a subset of the population).
You're a fucking moron.
Time is nature's way of making sure that everything doesn't happen at once. Space is nature's way of making sure that everything doesn't happen to you.
