7of9 as captain movie with a fresh crew?

Bus factor.

… that’s why you do a follow up interview and review their code, and maybe leave some things a little ambiguous to see if they ask you questions (telling them it’s okay to email questions and mostly expected)

Why did you decide to do ABC this way? What do you think about having done it XYZ way instead?

I know you didn’t have time to write a full test suite, but what areas of what you wrote would be best to focus on tests and why?

You can ask them so many things about what they wrote.

That’s like… how it works in the real world. They ask questions to product as they come up, they get questioned on their work in code reviews

Unless you work somewhere where you pair code 100% of the time anyway…

If you just look at it as a pass or fail and are not doing a detailed review with them after, you’re doing it wrong.

Never do your own Crypto

Figured this needed repeating not at the bottom

I was nodding along until

Not even the destitute want pickled cauliflower.

It’s great!

It definitely made me think of Jobs when I saw it. Not sure about the mouth part.

Next in line, I guess they can call it just “App”.

Saw this yesterday which is relevant

Developers developers developers developers, developers developers developers developers AI

With Plex every time I try to sync new content I put in the folders it says I’m unauthorized and have to close the server and reopen it.

Haven’t bothered to trouble shoot it yet as it’s annoying but not annoying enough.

I once made a big fuss about a very critical security vulnerability because they didn’t want to deal with it and there were very serious ramifications to the business depending on how it was dealt with. Like the company was exposed to multi million dollar lawsuits over it, maybe more, possibly worse than lawsuits

It was the only time I’ve ever been classified as not a team player, and they used that incident as the reason in the report.

Edit: they did eventually deal with it properly, but not before trying to hide it and lie about it to our customers first.

That would never happen to me, there’s no problem, I don’t know what you’re going on about.

People don’t even understand the value of an immutable digital object and how it never existed before bitcoin either. They can’t wrap their head around that having some inherent value even if small, and how that can transform the world, even if not bitcoin specifically

I saw an article that said it was to its lowest price since June 2022, got a chuckle out of that one.

When you choose the option of why you returned it, some include not covering the shipping cost.

Try choosing something else next time.

Profit is revenue - cost of goods.

If you make a widget and it costs you $100 to make, and you sell it for $110, you have $10 profit. Then you have all the other expenses that it takes to run a business, lets say that’s $200.

Your revenue is $110

You profit is $10

Additional Expenses: $200

You NET profit (AKA Net Income) is $-90

It’s like that pretty much everywhere including the USA. People just don’t understand.

Yes, nonprofits in the United States can earn a profit, but they must reinvest it back into the organization. Nonprofits are tax-exempt and are formed to serve the public, so they can’t distribute profits to individuals. How nonprofits make money

Donations and fundraising: Nonprofits raise money through donations and fundraising events

Earned income: Nonprofits generate income through activities related to their mission, such as:

Selling merchandise

Charging fees for services Renting out space Selling food

How nonprofits use their profits Program growth: Nonprofits use profits to grow their programs, hire staff, and upgrade technology Sustainability: Nonprofits use profits to build reserves for long-term sustainability Fundraising: Nonprofits use profits to attract more support through fundraising efforts

Restrictions on nonprofit profits

Nonprofits can’t distribute profits to individuals Nonprofits must reinvest all surplus funds back into the organization Nonprofits must ensure that their revenue is directly related to their mission

This is why you’re wrong

Profit is revenue minus cost of goods

NET profit or net income is after expenses unrelated to cost of goods.

If a widget costs you $100 to make and you sell it for $100 that’s $0 profit.

Tack on all the other expenses to run a business and now you’re in debt.

Profit is not NET profit.

“Profit” is a general term referring to the money a company earns after subtracting the cost of goods sold from its revenue, while “net profit” is the final profit remaining after all expenses, including operating costs, taxes, and interest, are deducted from revenue, representing the company’s true bottom line profitability

Edit: Below shows some guidelines, on how they can earn profit.

NON PROFITS can earn profit, they’re just restrictions on it.

Non profit doesn’t mean no profit.

Non profits make enough profit to pay their employees, rent, and any other business needs, or they get money from other sources. They still need and make money to operate.

For a company to succeed, there must be profit, or have an outside source of funding.

You cannot pay rent, employees or other business expenses with revenue and no profit without going into debt.

It helps with cash flow sure, but if it’s not profit you’re going into debt to pay that.
