  • I love asking the “how do you know” all day, but our official IT people have been bitten by outlook and cloud and LLMs so badly that they completely overlook the CLOUD ACT risks and general sovereignty issues inherent with using those from outside America.

    So the “has this been approved” part is not gonna go like I’d like.

    They make you attend the meeting, but if you’re like me you’ll be messaging your boss and saying "I’m not okay with being recorded, so I’ll just mute and shutter for the duration, thanks. I think that’s the best we can do.

    I’m lucky that

    • we’re union
    • we have really strong provisions around recording
    • my boss is awesome

    …so we can refuse to interact while being recorded, without fear of reprisal.














  • It could be regional or arbitrary. I say ‘coding’ a lot because it’s shorter. I could say one is about the keyboard work and one is about the architecture and design, but it’s really the fact that one’s shorter.

    But in my environment, they’re interchangeable as much as anything can be. And I’ve grown up using both; even in college in the '90s, coding C and m68k.

    YMMV?
