...or you keep fighting forward with the migration, because if it's seen as a failure then some pretty big heads will have to roll...

Just fyi, myopathy is a general term for diseases that affect some types of muscles, while myopia is short-sightedness -- assuming the latter is what you were going for!

Thanks!

Baffling to see this, in every place I've worked at that used Lotus Notes, it was an absolute dog on the system. Clunky, slow, and ground everything else to a halt. And this was the case even on a relatively modern laptop in 2019. Not what I'd call performant at all!

Notes was simple enough to allow folks with no computer science background or even sympathy for the machine to build teetering, badly-performing things.

However, even with a mind towards efficiency and minimalism, performance at roughly hundreds of thousands of documents was extremely elusive.

People who complain about aspects about movies they didn't like should all be as forthright as GP in explaining why exactly they didn't like that aspect, so I can decide whether to entirely disregard the opinion.

Disappointing to see you downvoted. I agree with this partially, but only because I think it applies more broadly.

I work in tech (although not in Big Tech/Mag 7/FAANG/whatever they're called now), and I feel quite acutely that anyone in the field is culpable in part for the enabling the absolutely massive dump that the capital-adjacent class is taking on the world to have their power play fantasies play out.

To the extent that I've started apologising on behalf of the field/profession to non-technical folks when they complain about yet another dark pattern/"growth hack" designed to steal their attention and money.


"This person sent goodwill to one group of people so obviously wants other groups to die in a fire" is not really devil's advocate...


We're not using Github Actions, but CircleCI is also failing git operations on Github (it doesn't recognise our SSH keys).
