SRE platform engineering and support at scale: Rust, Elixir, Erlang, C, and the usual stack friends
One went in here where people normally drive 60 mph:

On Clark straight through, I would look for approaching traffic from either side or ahead and would cut across the hatched area, mostly maintaining speed. It's honestly better than stop signs or stop lights.
PS: One place that doesn't do proper traffic design (or architecture): Texas. They insist on placing massive concrete dividers everywhere and have camouflaged by wear obstacles in the middle of paths that are injurious to bicyclists. It's nothing like the Netherlands where there aren't many random, dangerous surprises.
EDIT: I work for Meta as an IC6.
Nix solves version and configuration dependency hell problem by allowing multiple versions and configurations of the same package side-by-side. Unfortunately, it also still wants to make system-wide changes on macOS. It also has the "problem" of less wider accessibility because the functional nature is more complex.
PS: I have worked in client platform management and engineering at scale.
Every Turk, Russian, and Serb enters the chat.
Transliteration without deterministic, reversable fidelity sucks.
PS: I have a "normal" given name people spell 4 different ways and surname people spell 3 ways. ]: I always spell them out. Just be glad your last name doesn't have 4 "y"s as their legal American name like a former coworker.
One prescription, although not a panacea, is profit-sharing, worker-owned co-ops of tech workers. Confederations of co-ops by tech trade or area could rival or supplant MAANGs but without the perverse incentives of publicly-traded companies and their defenestration of ethics or mercurial abandonment of valuable employees.
That's a shame a system of one exam deters people from their dreams. Is there another exam or another path elsewhere?
I'll believe this when there's independent evidence. Also, I want to see evidence to see data for all pilot AI driving products: traffic collisions, injuries per collision, arrive sooner or later than humans, and pedestrian injuries rate.
Let me tell you about PSPSes and living on generator for weeks at a time for 4-5x per summer. Home insurance tripled. Bounced to SW TX after 45 years.
I'm curious. Does anyone know what model / OS Amazon fulfillment centers use for their field force handheld devices?
