To characterize a fight over the essential mission of your organizational work as a "distraction to the general employees" is to reveal yourself as someone of no particular contribution.


Use of signals is the single most important consideration in my opinion. Other drivers cannot read your mind. Using signals protects you.


I can't see how any of this makes sense. There are not a lot more eligible men than there are eligible women. Interest in relationships is not constrained in any way to "guys". I think you have an alignment problem.


The situation for men and women in dating isn't symmetric.


Of course not. Alpha males command the most attention


Right, "at most" they are acting as Maxwell's demon. Useless.


How do you replace ZooKeeper?


Kafka replaced ZooKeeper with Kafka itself already a few years ago https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-500%3A...


And first announced to be "production ready" in October 2022.


(WarpStream founder) WarpStream has a completely different architecture than Kafka: https://docs.warpstream.com/warpstream/background-informatio...

That said it does require a lot of metadata to orchestrate all the different concurrent operations over S3. We handle this with a custom metadata store that we run in our cloud control plane.


Near me there is a preserved section of forest (in the middle of a suburban sprawl). It connects a senior-living apartment building to a Walgreens, nothing more. It's one block wide and two blocks long, just enough forest for a winding walkway to never see the roads on either side.

When you step into the walkway you immediately feel the cool and moisture. It feels magical.


Lawns don't usually die in the summer, they go dormant. You can usually distinguish between dead grass and dormant grass by observing the color: dormant grass is yellow, while dead grass is grayish.

Texas lawns commonly use some form of bermuda grass, which goes dormant during the hot season (typically late July to late September). Some lawns will mix in a rye grass which shows bright green color during this same season to preserve the look, but obviously this compromises the growth of both types of grass.


I have been intentionally toxic to my family for years, and only recently succeeded in having them cut me out of their lives.

The "unseverable" bonds of family have caused a litany of mental and physical problems for me my entire life. It's only since my "toxic" behavior finally exhausted their fidelity that I've begun to feel like myself.


I've begun to feel like myself.

How can you tell?


I didn't even have the attention span to unpack your first sentence.


They said: When many words said, no listen more, so say "attention span overflow" instead of yawn.


Reordering and paraphrasing what they actually wrote:

I've been using that expression when giving up on participating during discussions.

Other people's line of reasoning are unnecessarily long, repetitive, trivial and most often also completely pointless. This derails my own productive/actually-interesting argument because I only have so much mental energy.


I got what they were saying...


In the fable it is not a golden goose. This is significant because killing a golden goose would result in golden flesh.

The (not golden) goose lays golden eggs. The recurring time-based nature of the eggs is the key aspect of the fable.


You're right! Mistake on my part
