If you read the article you find out. Unfortunately this kind of stories are the norm of modern academia

All best old-school emeritus professors I met in my life were absolutely certain they wouldn't have had a career in modern academia.

This story doesn't surprise anyone unfortunately

That requires user profiling, something most lemmy users are vocally against.

It also requires a data science team and a bunch of additional legal stuff.

Not even a pure mckinsey type of company value kpis over stakeholders' feedbacks. If a company is purely kpi driven, it is a bad company, as kpi cannot catch everything, but have limited and specific scope. Your managers should go back to their MBAs, and revise their stakeholder management skills. If a manager get a feedback that one of their team members is jeopardizing a project and the relationship with clients due to taking responsibilities and tasks for which they have no competency, it is extremely bad. In this case is even proved by the fact that the company must spend resources lowering the clients expectations. Managers should absolutely act. If this doesn't happen, the managerial side of your company is pretty broken

Ntfs is a notoriously bad file system. If he has the physical space (which he has), better to use a better file system. Ext4 might be "old" but it's a much better FS. Backup space is overblown imho

256 GB for OS only is huge for linux.

50 gb should be enough, unless you have very peculiar needs. You save 200gb SSD for demanding games that require fast I/O

1TB for backup is pretty big as well. Do you really need to mirror 1:1 your games' folders? Can you not backup only save files?

Windows, I cannot judge. I don't use it outside work

Lemmy user here, I don't see it either... The guy has bad settings

Best practice is to clearly state that PM here is not competent for its job, either he finds a solution himself (e.g. he manages expectations of clients without admitting he fucked up) or he has to be replaced.

This kind of situation is very dangerous. PM shouldn't take similar decisions, nor promising anything

What I am saying is that it is very common. All manual cars I have had with the exception of one have the R on the left

Why do you have a project manager discussing technical solutions? That's kind of... very wrong. Most PMs nowadays have a just a slightly better technical background than a secretary...

It is pretty common to have R on the left, to avoid accidental shifts while car is in motion

No, all these old houses are mostly stones and bricks. Fires are not a threat.

Earthquakes on the other hand...

I can only see restaurants gazebos and tables, are you sure?

Anyway these places are usually limited traffic zones. Few cars/vans have permits to enter, particularly for loading and unloading purposes

AFAIK Qanon started on 4chan, but was forced out. I guess it was too crazy even for them

Never ask a emacs user to show their conf files... Immediately Nuremberg trials

(clearly /s...)

I like this :D

And, in news that seems entirely unbelievable in Maryland, where a bushel of steamed crabs is an expensive treat and crab cakes are on just about every restaurant menu, Italians have little desire to eat their way out of this crab conundrum.

We will eventually eat them, we just need to understand how to properly make a pasta sauce out of it! Already some people are eating them, we need time to refine the recipes to become more popular :D

I used to work in academia in a field where salaries in financial and tech industries are pretty good. The best people left. Most who stayed were average at best with great egos. Only 1 person deserved to stay and he is now living in a shithole city, with a salary that is 1/3rd of mine as lecturer.

It is a broken system. We all had too much passion and were willing to sacrifice. They mistreated and exploited us. No regrets, only a deep sense of sadness

I am pretty sure it is also about "cultural" taste. Italians have more types of pasta, cheese and wines of any country in the world and they can tell the difference of each of them at a extreme level. Italians are pretty pedantic on food

I am not an expert in crabs, no idea of the names of common mediterranean crabs, sorry. But searching on Wikipedia one apparently is called in English Maja squinado, another Mediterranean green crab...

As said, I might be wrong with these names

Or the PI via the grant

High impact factor journal are among those that ask fees depending on number of pages and figures. Or at least they used to when I used to do academic research
