No no, don't look at what I'm doing when I'm complaining about someone else doing the same thing. THEY are doing much worse, so that means I'm not bad as long as someone else is worse.
Ehhh at this point Apple’s privacy strategy is little more than marketing. Sure they’ll push stuff to the edge to save themselves money and book the win, but they also are addicted to the billions they make selling your searches to Google.
Ugh, CarPlay 1 is exactly the division of responsibilities I want. I don’t want Apple anywhere near the actual driving functions and instruments. It takes a long time for my car to connect to CarPlay and it’d be super distracting to have the instruments suddenly change to Apple’s as I’m driving.
Are you a principal eng? The principal engs I’ve known express things in terms of measurable business problems. You have a list of practices with no success criteria.
A lot depends on exactly this, and what types of applications or features the developer org is responsible for building.
IaC could be useful if you're constantly spinning up new standardized apps, but if you're looking to increase deployment velocity it's not going to do much.
I'm also surprised that they're asking HN what should be improved -- I think HN is a random assortment of people working in or interested in tech, many of whom will happily give advice based on no expertise. I hope "ask on HN" is near the very end of their list, and they're just being thorough? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This sounds like mistaking five minutes of googling as research. Sorry, for being so snarky. Please look around you and talk to your new customers as other posters already suggested. And talk to the management. Which perceived problems lead to the creation of the position for someone responsible for developer experience?
Off the top of my head: Libraries already exist, and the regulatory regime to oversee subscription services doesn't.
Meaning, no one has to do all the stuff required to bring a new government agency into being (including raising taxes or borrowing money), there are no new regulations to comply with (which would cost the streaming services more, which would cost you more), you don't have an new, unnecessary agency brought into being which will literally never go away and increase the size of permanent government we all have to pay for and live with, you haven't expanded the scope of government intrusion in our lives, etc.
that has nothing to do with staffing. Korea has a uniquely hostile ISP market where service providers want to charge foreign services ridiculous amounts (versus peering agreements in most markets) for access to Korean consumer networks
Korea has a philosophy of local conglomerates first and foreign companies only existing if they prop the local conglomerate up.
It's a very good strategy as the Korean market is lucrative and the Korean companies have opportunities to spread worldwide. (they just suck at it)
Twitch got sent a foreigner-tax and didn't pay it, that's all. Korea already has a thriving version of Twitch called AfreecaTV. (edit: Oh it's not that thriving on their international site, maybe Korean site is better.)

I don't doubt that there is some degree of domestic favoratism—it would be surprising if there weren't any—but Korea was for years the last bastion of Internet Explorer because of government requirements, as opposed to Chrome, Firefox, or some special Korea-reskinned Chromium. iPhone has lots of market share despite Samsung.[1] Relevant to this discussion, Korean players going back to Starcraft a quarter century ago were and are well known for competing in and livestreaming mostly non Korean-developed videogames.
[1] Yes, I know about Apple being a Samsung customer
No, they really just suck at it as a culture. Tech in Korea is terrible and startups are even worse. The culture may be set by this big players though, that's for sure. It's not about competition leading to this. This is just a "grab" based on the great success of international market trade from Korean companies like Samsung, LG, etc. The same way Facebook and others call Chinese tech terrorism, they earned the privilege locally to hinder competition.
Korea changed the pricing model for network traffic to be "sending party pays". For something like OGN that has a literal TV channel it's less of an issue, but for something like twitch that is only Internet, and tons of video, it's more difficult.
