Ah could be hardware/OS, yeah. I believe everyone at our company are on MacBooks (I'm a Linux guy myself, but orgs don't usually like that).

My personal laptop is a Dell XPS 13 and while I like it for various reasons, it has had plenty of problems with the built-in mic and video (mostly the mic). So it very well could be that.

We have like 250, mostly remote and on Slack all the time. There's the occasional hiccup here and there, but generally it's pretty seamless.

I've personally never had an issue with Slack, mic/video included. My connection has always been solid, though. Never tried on a shit connection.

It's delusional to think he was ever going to do anything but accelerate the genocide.

Yeah our corporate machines won't run any external media. I assumed that was standard practice.

It's a toss up, for me. Both managed to capture all discussion on major open source projects.

It's speed, but it's also flow and a continuous stream of thought. If all your editing is being done with muscle memory and minimal thought, you can continue thinking about the problem at hand rather than interrupting your thoughts process to fumble through some context menu to make a change.

The negative impact a lot of screen time has on kids is very well documented. Basically, even educational shows do basically nothing for young kids. It's passive and doesn't help development in any way. Kids benefit a lot more from active exploration, play, and socialization.

"Moral panic" is a phrase reserved for complaints that have no basis in reality.

It's still grossly negligent from a security perspective.

Yeah. Anduril has tried to hire me multiple times as well as well as a number of people I know (their software is written in Haskell, which is a somewhat niche skill set).

Every time I've told them absolutely not.

That's certainly what we do in my workplace. Shocked that they don't.
