The company I work for switched from redmine to jira few years ago, after using redmine since 2009 or so. It was a really bad decision spearheaded by a single project manager.
I miss redmine. I hate having to see the constant interstitial loading animation in Jira. And working through small modals. Just load the damn page for the link I clicked on. All the “single page application” junk is rarely executed well. But I can’t say that it or I’m a dinosaur. Sorry the rant.
You’re not a dinosaur for hating the continued consumerization of products and services targeted toward use cases that are expert in nature.
Sure, have a simpler GUI for Jira Service Desk users in a non-technical customer service role. Give me a different GUI that’s not driven by designers looking to reinvent. I don’t need that, I don’t want that, and it just wastes my time.
Something like that also happened at one company I worked for. While Redmine served the company for more than 10 years, and it was still doing great, the new management decided switching to Jira was a must. Maybe it can help other workflows, but for us, it didn't really improve anything, it only made people angrier. That was one of the reasons why I switched jobs.
Jira is so much better now than it was the last time I had to use it, about 10 years ago. It's like a different product with the same name. Maybe it is, I don't know what happened in those 10 years.
I used Redmine for many small projects, probably since 2007. It works well. It's quite simple, not many bells and whistles, which is OK. Maybe not many features but enough to get the work done.
This isn’t surprising. It’s like saying “don’t post sensitive/proprietary info on stackoverflow and don’t blindly paste code from there into your professional work.”
And google is nonetheless happy to have countless other coders use their experiment, just not their own.
Leave other LLMs to the side on this issue. There are a variety of different issue that arise when Google employees might use a non-Google LLM, so that prohibition is in a category with different reasons.
It's ElReg who, true to their style, decided to focus the discussion on Google employees using (or not using) Google's LLM. Even they, however, acknowledge that Google "also advised users not to include sensitive information in their conversations with Bard in an updated privacy notice."
As such, Google seems to apply the same standard to other users (including "countless /other/ coders") that it applies to its employees, no?
It doesn't have to be a primary use case for it to be one of the use cases Google is putting forward. In which case Google is still saying they're unwilling to use their own tools in the way put forward for others to do so.
There are some non-EVs that you can get with limited tech (until the newer laws kick in). You can disable the connection in some vehicles. For example, there are guides on how to disable onstar to various degrees (removing the antenna, removing the bridge to the network chip, etc). EVs tend to be tech heavy because the costs associates with them require targeting the premium market to make a profit.
I agree this is sad. However, as a child of the 90s, I lost the attention war to my parents' TV. Maybe I just had absent parents, but I feel like most parents haven't been interested in their children for a while now.
Probably never were. It’s only lately that parents are expected to watch their kids every step until they turn 18. Back in the day you’d just tell them to go throw rocks in the well with the other village kids and come back at sundown
Robinhood allows up to $1,000 to be used "instantly" just by the user initiating a transfer. So Robinhood doesn't have the money yet, but the user can buy stocks -- meaning they are using Robinhood's money.
I would think the people knowledgable enough to know their browser is making requests to FB without actually visiting FB would also be knowledgable enough to block it themselves (with their hosts file, ublock, etc) and not need the ISP to do so.
However… I don’t know what I’d do in the time that I would normally work. I’m working on retiring early so I need to figure that out.
