Your ‘n’ key has been sleeping with the apostrophe.

Here’s $10.

Hey, you make a lot of great points and thanks for the perspective and depth of engagement. I think “paying vendors for services you don’t want to run internally” is exactly outsourcing. With the ubiquity of big cloud services though, I hesitate to call that outsourcing even though it fits that definition. Maybe cause that’s more about the hardware than the people, I dunno. I checked real quick and seems like they do have their own data centers but use AWS and others as well around the world.

I think I may have a different default definition of outsourcing than others though after working tech support in the US for bigger companies through other smaller outsourced companies in the US. A lot of people probably assumed I meant overseas as in outsourced tech support to India. I agree with your scaling estimates and most everything else you said. Someone’s gotta design dem summer sale logos too though lol. Cheers.

A behavioral health company with 25 iPads deployed to field employees as patient data collection devices all signed into the same iCloud account instead of using MDM or anything.

They all had the same screen lock PINs and though most of the data was stored in a cloud based service protected by a login, that app’s password was saved by default.

Steam is available in over two hundred countries and you think 100 employees is enough to manage that? To do the account support, billing support, vendor support, user content moderation, technical support, hardware partnerships, server management, platform development, legal compliance, business development, web development, database management, HR, accounting…etc in multiple regions and in every respective language? One employee per every two countries?! Figure it out.

Steam claims they’re available in over two hundred countries. Do you really think that one employee for every two countries is enough?

Translation: They outsource a lot.

Edit: Lol, downvoted by people too dense to realize you need way more than 100 people to operate in over 200 countries with as much business as they do. OFC they outsource a lot. Your local Walmart has 100 employees.

Stop caring. There is nobody you could be that will please everybody, and if there was…there’d be nothing of you left as you morphed to fit the situation and company around you. Just be yourself and ignore their passive aggressive BS or avoid if possible.

(yes, it is that simple but still harder than it sounds. Ask yourself “Do I need to give a shit about this?” and the answer will usually be no.)

I’m a 1 but the apple would be morphing into different types and then the image would zoom in on patterns or what the bottom looks like etc. It would then shift to something totally unrelated like Sonic the Hedgehog. Why him? Your guess is as good as mine. There’s a lot going on up there and it’s noisy and constantly under construction.

To your question though, of course I don’t watch them, I skip around to the good parts.

As I was first scrolling, I read this title as “Passive Aggressive Sandals” and now that’s all I choose to think about.

Crocs unabashedly WITH socks, right in your face.

I guess so!

Yup. We also might come from the “step on a crack, break your mother’s back” generation?

Look, this is objectively funny because it’s the same exact tune.

That’s a smart mom.

You better finish your dinner, don’t you know there are starving children in Africa?

I’m sure it’s past your time now, but if we raise awareness, perhaps we can save one person together…

That sounds rough, sorry to hear that. Being with someone that doesn’t treat you well for too long is damaging. Sounds like you found one of the millions that was absolutely not the right one for you though and I hope you can let it just be that when you’re ready. I could stand to take my advice to be fair lol.

Yes, but tavern wenches are assumed to be included.

Assuming that getting married means you’ll never masturbate again.
