Since you seem to know what you’re talking about, I’m looking for some advice: I work for a large and very well known engineering company and currently our incredibly terrible workflow looks something like this: Develop locally using VStudio -> transfer repo to network drive -> login to tester via three layers of Remote Desktop Connections -> run and debug code live on tester RDC The tester setup is virtually all GUI based. It’s also located on the other side of Asia which is the reason of logging in via RDC. Is there possibly a better way of making this workflow more contained in a terminal/single ide environment, without having to jump through the RDC loops?

100% agreed.

Even those among us that have for years recognised the hypocrisy of the West in condemning practises in other countries which they themselves implement, this trial of Assange is so explicit in nature that it's quite unsettling. There was an understanding that this type of thing was a line that a liberal democratic Western nation simply would not cross.

Incorrect. After implementing a lockdown, and getting R<1, essentially brings you back to square one. That's when contact tracing is implemented and lockdown ends. The contact tracing will keep R<1 until a vaccine/better treatments/ICU's are implemented. A secondary lockdown might be needed in case people another outbreak occurs.

My god, literally everything in that second paragraph is what I do.

Gonna need a source for that.

I don't know how you can fail to see how an organised and unified workforce will always benefit all workers in a firm. Pitting 'top performers' against the rest, scaremongering about 'lazy workers' etc. just divides the workforce and allows management/owners to exploit/underpay workers as a whole. The company would not be able to function/make as good a profit as it does without ALL workers contributing. If a worker truly is lazy/not pulling their weight, they get fired. A union doesn't stop that. A union is a unified voice for workers that can demand rightfully, better working conditions, better pay, better benefits.

This fiction that somehow tech workers should avoid unions because their pay is so well is utter corporate propaganda. The money won't always be this good people, especially as more and more are told to enter the industry. I know HackerNews is an entrepreneurial haven but it's funny to me how people here, with all their technical wisdom, are so blind to any benefits to workers and aversion to anything seen as 'socialist'.

My god, all those links refer to Irish Americans. If anything, it shows that Americans hold grudges throughout generations. It's quite telling that an American conflates Irish-Americanism with being 'Irish'. The hyphen is there for a reason.

Irish-American or actually Irish?

I'm Irish and I don't really get it. The statement sounded pretty ignorant and typically American.

(I wonder if people will spot the irony).

Why not dry it with tissue paper?

is Seattle lonely?

Total BS. Irish War of Independence is a good example of guerrilla warfare beating the oppressor, and the British did not subscribe to 'laws of armed conflict' in the slightest:

Had to make an account just for this, but the website (morningstar.com) is of Morningstar, Inc. investment firm from Chicago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morningstar,_Inc.

And to be clear to anyone who mindlessly defends capitalism, this religious devotion to an objectively greedy method of distribution of resources indicates an absurd lack of critical thought and confirms US brainwashing has been quite effective on you.
