- Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t seen this mentioned but apart from 8K being expensive, requiring new production pipelines, unweildley for storage and bandwidth, unneeded, and not fixing g existing problems with 4K, it requires MASSIVE screens to reap benefits.
There are several similar posts, but suffice to say, 8K content is only perceived by average eyesight at living room distances when screens are OVER 100 inches in diameter at the bare minimum. That’s 7 feet wide.

Adding the bilingual joke I knew.
An English cat, named One Two Three and a French cat, named Un Deux Trois, decided to race swimming across the Channel. The English cat won because the Un Deux Trois cat sank.

- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 4 months ago:
Home Assistant is - by far - a better home automation platform than anything else I’ve tried. Most of them cannot integrate with as many platforms and your ability to create automations is not as powerful.
Folks will argue that it’s harder. I argue back that if you buy a hub with it pre-installed, your setup experience is as easy or easier than HomeKit or Google Home or maybe Alexa.

- Comment on Microsoft mulls more job cuts, this time focused on managers and non-coders, not just low performers. 5 months ago:
It’s not often discussed that Microsoft, Amazon, and other ‘very cool’ tech companies still practice this 80s firing the bottom 10% bull.. It has nothing with being a low performer, but everything to do with culling jobs indiscriminately and creating an in/out culture. Managers are forced to place employees into bottom performance slots, sometimes arbitrarily, so that teams/groups/departments fit the bell curve nicely. Then, people get fired, bonuses go out, and everything is peachy at the end of the fiscal yesr.
Let that stew for a few years and these behemoths are factories of pet projects and crunch culture. Your long-timers are either golden performers who’ve seen massive churn and project turbulance OR they’re climbers, willing to step on top of anyone or burn any project to climb the ladder or at least keep their spots.
