On my childhood I had a colleague were when him lose a match against me or my brother, him got mad and fire the joystick to the ground.

To complement this, once when I was earning some money to type documents through computer and print them for many purposes (rent contracts, college homework and others), a woman asked me to fake their printed pregnant exam which was saying that her wasn't pregnant, I rejected, she insisted to print a simple "Yes" and I persisted without a sweat! I was young at the time about 14 years old.


try to search for samples of lab results (OCR dev, long story)... don't include anything about pregnancy or any keyword even close to it. and you will be shocked how the entire first page will be services selling positive pregnancy tests. I had no idea there was a market for that.


I had worked with a guy which is smart, or at least persuasive, since him was hired somehow. He after started working with the team, him complaining about the project proposal, about the bad code decisions and had serious discussions with the product owner. After I talked with the PO, I opened a meeting with the complainer to extend my hand and say that I was opened to listen, him thanks me but preferred to stay a little away. The CTO proposed that since him spotted a bad code (it really was), him had time to analyze better and fix! In the end him lost 2 or 3 weeks fixing the code, wasn't able to finish and request resignation directly to the HR with the reason that the team and the project was bad, probably criticized the CTO. I had to take the code him left and finish the fix!


The worst experience for me is changing directors/C-level to maximize the exit profit, between the lines of "disagreements over company policy" can be many things, but one major pain is culture changes which drives down everything, once the company stimulating the healthy place and then creates a disturbed one where we can't grow and deliver our better solutions only for money.


Taxes isn't the right approach, in Brazil is taxes over taxes and the poor people is the real affected by them. They cannot eat fish frequently or only through processed food, which in turn, is mixed with many other things which are bad for their healthy too.


That is the whole point. The taxes are there to reduce consumption, and the people who reduce their consumption first are the poor.


One of the comments from the accepted answer says that the Mozilla was the codename for Netscape, link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1114254/why-do-all-brows...


There's a better explanation in the last comment on the page You linked.

ISTR that Netscape used to have in it's README or INSTALL (or maybe an "about"-like menu entry) a note that the name of the browser is pronounced Mozilla while only being spelled N-E-T-S-C-A-P-E.


I'm not that older, but I had learned this trick, mainly when the device goes wrong and we need to fix the tape :)


Once during the first year of the covid pandemic, I requested a couple meals for me and my wife through the Uber eats for lunch, my wife was accompanying in the hospital my mother-in-law on Sunday, then after suddenly the place informed the meals was delivered, but I didn't received anything. After I tried to discuss with Uber eats, I had appealled for the credit card, they full refund me.


Grafana is mostly knows for the most used interface to query Prometheus and create dashboards for collected metrics


And more recently inventing and reinventing Prometheus alternatives. It’s a bit much trying to keep up.


On my last job, the company was using NewRelic (for two environments we was using at the time) which had an ok cost and "suddenly" we'd been forced to use Datadog which costs way over for our budget and after the person responsible for the change and integration see the estimated high costs, started to cut everything possible to keep it low. So, our tools degraded and we wasn't able to test things on staging and collect metrics like we was when using NewRelic. FinOps is certainly a good approach, but we need it from the start!


ha, we use NewRelic for our application but the company is so cheap, they won’t even buy the infra team a license!


Haha appears some managers change only the address but the behavior is the same, I already worked on a place where we had to use free heroku addons besides the paid PostgreSQL and the dynos
