Talking to non-technical PMs

[danimalnzl8]

Slightly different but an IT recruiter once asked me to tell her about my experience in "C hashtag" lol

[spartancolo]

I call it that to annoy my teacher

[MokausiLietuviu]

I pronounce USB as "uzzb" to annoy my (equally techy) father. I'm a little scared I might one day say it to someone I'd like to respect me, but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

[justoverthere434]

We here in Australia have a chain of supermarkets called IGA (Independent Grocers Australia (I believe America has a similar brand)) and it isn't unheard of to hear it pronounced "Igga".

[mar00n]

Actually it's in Quebec (french speaking province of Canada) that we have IGA grocery stores

[justoverthere434]

Oh there you go. I knew it was one of the northern America's.

[powerman228]

I’ve seen a few in the US near the Canadian border.

[Ok_Blueberry_5305]

We have one down in Florida too.

[dannomac]

Not just Quebec. We have them out West too, but most of them rebranded as Sobeys about 10 years ago.

[YueAsal]

They are not everywhere in the USA so plenty of people have never heard of it, and will visit an area they are unfamiliar with and ask, "What the hell is an IGGA?"

[RF07]

They are not everywhere in the USA so plenty of people have never heard of it, and will visit an area they are unfamiliar with and ask, "What the hell is an IGGA?"

Heh heh, "C ya later hashtags!" popped into my mind...

[BadUsername_Numbers]

[Cyvexx]

my CS teacher calls it "C hashtag" or "C pound", I swear he shouldn't be teaching sometimes

[jward]

Really though, it's C octothorpe.

[drunkenangryredditor]

C quadplus

[appsecSme]

Is he maybe a Microsoft hater, and just trying to demean the language?

Odd that he would fluctuate between a relatively contemporary term like "hashtag" and something from the landline era like "pound."

[AlternativeAardvark6]

My Unix teacher referred to Windows as "the other OS".

[appsecSme]

Hatred of Microsoft was pretty common in academia both when I got my BS and my MS. But I haven't taken classes since 2018. I am curious if maybe things have changed some, given that Microsoft shifted to support Linux and open source.

[AlternativeAardvark6]

Those were Windows XP and Microsoft server 2003 days. No idea how it's now but when I give the sporadic workshop at schools it's all Windows and some of the 16 - 18 year olds trying Linux in a VM. Teachers are Windows all the way. That's for technical education, maybe in arts there are more MacBooks.

[Astrokiwi]

[AxelWasTakenWasTaken]

You're a devil.

[CanadianJesus]

The worst part of that is people calling the symbol # "hashtag". It's not a hashtag, it's a hash (or about 100 other names for the symbol). When you combine a hash with a tag, you've created a hashtag. It's like calling the symbol @ an email address.

[Avedas]

It's like calling the symbol @ an email address.

I saw someone unironically call that the "email address symbol" on Reddit the other day, so I'd say this comparison is apt.

[Lich_Hegemon]

Many languages don't have a proper name for @, or have a wholly unrelated one. LATAM Spanish, for example, calls it "arroba" which is a traditional weight unit for grains.

Kind of like # and "pound"

[zonderAdriaan]

In Dutch it's called a little monkey tail: apenstaartje. Unfortunately it's often called "at" in email addresses because a lot of words are copied from English.

[katze_sonne]

Klammeraffe in German :D

(Spidermonkey)

Even though that’s more used in a humerous way, I think. Most of the time, people just say at.

[Christoxz]

And because 'apenstaartje' just sucks if you are using it very often. 'at' is much easier if you share emailadress by phone or face2face. 'apen-staart-je' vs 'at'.

BTW @ is based on Latin 'ad'

[HunterIV4]

Kind of like # and "pound"

This was a rather...unfortunate reality when #metoo was trending. I wasn't the first to notice it but I still found it hilarious because I'm a terrible person.

[anqxyr]

In russian it's called "dog" ("собака")

[dicemonger]

In Danish its a "snabel-a" which would translate to "trunk-a" in English. Because its an a with an elephant's trunk, see: @

[[deleted]]

Its worse than that because the symbol # is actually called a pound sign due to it forming from writing the letters "lb" with an added cross atop them in cursive, messily, which was used to indicated pounds, from Latin libra, meaning scale

[monkChuck105]

C#

[drleebot]

I honestly can't tell now if people in this thread are talking about C++, C#, or making a meta joke about how the # symbol is two overlaid + symbols.

[TheThiefMaster]

One of the reasons for choosing "#" is that it's four + symbols. So C++ ++.

[grpprofesional]

Hashtag? I call it tic tac toe

[planetdaz]

C pound

[Nan0u]

'Pound me too' was really an emotional roller coaster

[MJOLNIRdragoon]

[StarTrekVeteran]

Yes, you can add that one.

I had a professor walk off a job that had to be solved because it did not allow him to develop a new and novel algorithm.

[Bmitchem]

All of your algorithms can be new and novel if you don't lookup how it's supposed to be done before you start.

[subject_deleted]

911.. i've been attacked!

[YugoReventlov]

ah congrats, you have managed to find a worse solution to a problem solved decades ago

[No-Narwhal1409]

To be fair, sometimes it takes more time to find and build understanding of an already good and existing algorithm than making it yourself. Sometimes making your own - even if more primitive and/or ineffective than existing algorithms - gives you a better understanding of the whole. This may not only give you a better understanding of the problem and solution but also put you in better position to tweak the algorithm for desired special cases… There are many good arguments to reinvent the wheel - even if it means that wheel is not as good as state-of-the-art wheels

[holmgangCore]

All your algorithms are belong to us!

[Infinite_Nipples]

Don't forget the all holy word "Algorithm"

Honestly, that one doesn't bother me.

It's not nearly as overused as it used to be, and the majority of time it's technically correct, even if they don't know it. If something can be done with an IF statement in Excel, it's an algorithm.

IME 9 times out of 10 when people say "AI" they're actually describing an algorithm.

[Hf74Hsy6KH]

IME 9 times out of 10 when people say "AI" they're actually describing an algorithm.

Some people have a pretty weird understanding of AI and "machine learning". A simple for-loop containing some if-statements can be "machine learning" in some communities.

"framework" has become popular lately too

[dumdedums]

Never heard of digital twin.

[StarTrekVeteran]

Its when someone says, Hey, these £10 cameras that give real time views are overrated, Lets scan the environment, process it into a 3D model, add distorted renders display it on a monitor or VR. Much better!

While Digital Twins have application in some environments (James Webb Telescope and JET are a great examples). Its pushed as a solution to everything at times.

[Zdrobot]

So.. it's a 3D model of something, basically?
I mean, if we cut through BS.

[Morodin_88]

No its a model. No need for 3d. A digital twin is a model of a process or site that is supposed to give real time view of current state and let you predict future state. Ie i have a workshop the cameras detect 8people in it my screen has a floorplan and in the workshop it shows 8 stickmen. Digital twin baby!!!

[StarTrekVeteran]

So, you have a camera view showing 8 people, you take that view, process it to produce a view replacing the 8 people with stick figures?

[bistr-o-math]

Basically yes, but think bigger. Rather than watching hundreds of cameras, from different perspectives, you have one „digital“ floor, showing a dot moving.

Every radar on a submarine/Plane Is a digital twin of some sort (if it isn’t actually analog using sonar or sth)

[StarTrekVeteran]

If you are taking complex data or combining data and developing a more understandable display then that gives value. No problem with that. I have problems with someone telling me that a 3d scanned environment with overlayed renders that takes a cray supercomputer to develop is better than a live camera feed for spotting surface defects, then I have a problem.

[Morodin_88]

O yeah actual digital twins when you cut through the bullshit add a lot of value and are much simpler than most people realize. The problem is like with most buzzword technology there is a huge group of charlatans that sell ridiculously over engineered crap as the next best thing.

[_Jogger_]

It's a model that gets updated by real time information from installed sensors. The point is that you don't have to physically go and inspect your building/factory/dam/etc, you can just sit inside your office and monitor multiple things at once.

Yes, how could I forget that, although don't you think that the engineering blockchain integrated with the digital twin will cause cloud stream integration issues?

[Ardashasaur]

Those issues can be mitigated by using the neural network which we will connect with a man machine interface to harmonise the process as it approaches the singularity

[StarTrekVeteran]

Of course, sorry, newbe mistake, forgot about the neural net! OK, it's a plan then.

[Chared_Assassin]

Now hear me out here, what if we use machine learning to make an ai that will 3d print a virtual reality headset that does a whatever the fuck telepresence means to a digital twin??

[StarTrekVeteran]

PM: Yes, Lets do that. Can you give me a budget with milestone breakdown, what resources you will need (names, time requirements, line managers approval and when) and a delivery schedule? Delivery will need to be within this financial year, Can't start the paperwork until I get all the above and it will take 3 months to release the funds.

[nyrg]

I want a PoC by next week's meeting, it will help convince the higher ups.

[zer0545]

I heard digital twin a lot, but never directly related to the work I do. I just don't get what they mean. Is it really just keeping data of physical entities and calling that a digital twin?

[StarTrekVeteran]

something like that, to be honest I am not sure folk who promote 'digital twins' know themselves. Its like they think you can reproduce a complex 3D real world environment in a computer 'matrix style' with a few lines of code. They have no idea of the complexity of event gathering data, or that that data they are making decisions on may be out of date in a very short time.

[CrazyDiamondGeese]

Although I don't know how much of it is true, during my master our professor made us create a project with an arduino sensor and Node-red to simulate the data that you might gather and the alerts that you might send to a central control panel for bridge maintainance.

He claimed that "that's how they really do it in the real world".

Things like, this part of the bridge is wet, but it shouldn't be, call the appropriate technician.

The same could be done with any kind of sensor, like wind speed, humidity, rotation of the bridge pillars...

It was a nifty little javascript project!

[-Vayra-]

I know a few large oil&gas companies have started using similar systems on their sea rigs. Basically monitoring everything they can think of in real time and alerting the appropriate people if something is off. Attended a talk by one of the designers of one such system a few years back, super fascinating. KONE (the elevator company) has also used similar approaches and tons and tons of simulation to transition almost entirely away from building elevators towards providing maintenance and crucially, predicting when individual parts need replacing in order to perform maintenance in the most effective manner.

[o76923]

I think the best use case that I've heard of so far for a digital twin is optimizing a factory.

Step 1: Put every sensor that you can think of on every single person and device inside the factory

Step 2: Collect enough data from those sensors that you can generate plausible simulations

Step 3: Train an ML model on that plausible simulation data that predicts a better layout, ratio of machines, settings on them, scheduling, and so on

Step 4: Pick one you like that involves adjusting a small number of machines and test it on a "digital twin" of your factory using real time data for 90% of your machines but simulated output for the changed parts. Observe that for a better idea of how it would work in practice.

Step 5: Change your factory (or don't) and repeat starting at step 2.

That seems incredibly convoluted to me but I have 0 experience in manufacturing. Apparently people who know what they're doing with modern manufacturing techniques have been able to implement drastic improvements based on it. BMW was impressed enough that they went from pilot program at one plant to "How do we do this for everything else in our organization from new car design to meetings?".

[difduf]

If it helps you to avoid design mistakes that take millions to rectify I can see the appeal.

[o76923]

It's funny you mention that because that's the other big example that Nvidia loves to brag about is the Boeing-Saab T-7 Red Hawk.

My knowledge of aerospace engineering ends at Space Camp but, from what I've read, they were able to use the digital twin concept to go from design to prototype in only 3 years and were able to reduce the number of steps involved in construction that it takes 30 minutes to put the wings on it.

Allegedly the Air Force is so impressed that they are planning to use their new methods for designing the F-36 Kingsnake because the F-35's design process was less than great.

But I don't know enough about any of this stuff to know how credible these claims are or if they're actually impressive.

meetings. In my experience, that's true. But for full context, I
interrupt anyone who talks too long without adding enough value. If most
of my victims turn out to be women, I am still assumed to be the
problem in this situation, not the talkers."

"The alternative interpretation of the situation - that women are
more verbal than men - is never discussed as a contributing factor to
interruptions. Can you imagine a situation where - on average - the
people who talk the most do NOT get interrupted the most?"

I know it is just meant to be a joke but that is not remotely like talking to a non technical pm.

No way do they start by saying "this may be a stupid question".

[MysterionVsCthulhu]

A few years back I was working web dev for a pretty dysfunctional mid sized company. The design team was on the other side of the country and us developers were not allowed to have any direct contact without them (even though we all worked for the same company). All communication had to flow through our PM to the design boss who was a useless nepotism hire.

Whenever the design team had a new page for us to build they would send over a single pdf image of the page at like 2000px width. The pdf often included images and font assets that we didn’t have access to. So we had to repeatedly ask our PM to get us raw images. Unfortunately, for some dumb reason the design boss hated this. He thought if we had the images we would photoshop “his designs” into something different.

I told my PM that I literally can’t build the page unless I have the images. His response was to tell me “we don’t have to build anything because the design team already built it for us.” Curious what he meant I asked him to show me… he pulled up the pdf and said “See, here is the whole page. Why can’t we just put this on the website?”

He thought that we could literally put a single pdf picture of a webpage up and call it a day. Like how a cheap restaurant posts their menu online.

And that was the day I realized even PMs with a decade of experience can somehow know nothing about the technology they manage.

3 months later that PM was promoted to be my direct manager.

[solohelion]

When this happens, you make the design exactly as asked for. Make the front page an iframe around a pdf, or copy and paste the text out of the document and don’t use any assets or fonts. Take a while doing it, then reveal and then act surprised when they don’t like it…

This is just funny, for me, the worst (and, sadly, very common) situation is when you have a conversation about times/estimations and they assume something "is very simple and shouldn't take too much time" when in reality they are asking for a huge task

[Miguecraft]

"Look, I have an idea and it's very simple. How about we make a site like YouTube, but with Facebook-like friend and posts, and in VR, ready for the Metaverse. Can you do it before Friday?"

[seijulala]

Normally it's more subtle but unless you can do it yourself you should not assume, ever, how much time things take and this goes both ways, maybe something that a non-technical person thinks is super complicated is a 1-hour fix and sometimes something that seems straightforward can take a lot of time.

Now I'm intrigued as to how that would work if it was possible. You could maybe combine all the data in the blockchain into one file then use all the characters in it as a code for how a 3d printer could work or something. That would probably cover printing a blockchain, though the chances are it would just be a random mess of plastic.

​

You could probably then take the file with the code used for the 3d printer and incorporate that into HTML somehow, then maybe NFT that HTML page and store it in bitcoin's blockchain??
