Writing. As in paid to do it, with briefs, deadlines and editors. From this comment I probably look like a crap writer! I do need to focus alot to write well. I don't use AI except for checking for basic mistakes. I may start using AI

Yeah get your PR and citizenship to your desired country ASAP (wouldn't help in this case as they did anyway). Generally the world gets less friendlier to migration over time. Be it little things like more tests, costs and waits or big

What happens if you need to catch up? You keep calling in a loop with a new lastEventId? What is the intention there though. Is this for social media type feeds, or is this meant for synchronising data (at the extreme for DB replication for

> 4 9s of accuracy predicting click-through rates Having a hard time parsing what that means. Lets say the CTR for 1000000 impressions of an add is 24.5898% and the ML predicts 25.1926%. How many 9s of accuracy is that?

It is expensive. If we do a monthly test restore like someone suggested then 1TB costs $6000/y. No restores is $3000/y. s3 regular is 10% of that.

It's one of two backups. The software is great. Dropbox level of just works. iDrive by comparison is cheaper but always errors and files it couldn't touch.

Thanks! I suspect that for my use case (actual backup no meed for cloud access) s3 glacier is statistically cheaper.

As a customer do I need to worry? It is my favourite cheapo backup.

Technology ironically. The stuff Peter talks about where Y=0. The covid vaccine inventors for example. Other Y=0 things are people giving their lives for the greater good and basic rights. Geneva convention. Rights for black people, rights

I disagree with the take on UBI. With UBI more people can then pursue a career that is fulfilling for them. Rather than choices of shit jobs to make ends meet.

By the way, reading maps is easy. Reading a map and memorising all the landmarks and turns so you can then drive without looking at the map is the hard bit. IMO.

Useful! I mostly use Bitbucket and Atlassian has a decent VSCode plugin to check on PRs and Jobs, I assume similar exists for Github.

These are the people who will survive (AI or Otherwise!). I would also add: The rich. If you invested well and sit on 10M+ you are probably OK as long as you keep investing well. The very talented (and recognized) e.g. anything from sports

This sounds like sage advice! Instead of paying for ads, pay for yourself to cold call. The investors still get value. Also don't travel anymore and the workshops are not mandatory unless it is in some kind of contract. Even then negot

Well I just used 7 days leave to get 16 days continuous time off so I'm with ya! Like the idea of optimising it. Of course doing the full 15->53 you suggest means you are counting weekends alot in this, which you get anyway. You can

It is easy when you are forced to do it. It's also hard to wear a face mask all day and stay indoors.

They can move to Discord, Whatsapp (huh!), Signal, Reddit or some sailor forum. If FB disappeared they could reroute. Bigger things are disappearing and we are going to be fine*. E.g. much world trade with the US.

They probably could. If all your friends and family posted 10 times a day. But people prefer to consume I guess.

The travel things you describe to me are work (in a good way) getting away from it all can give you the clarity to know what big moves to make. I recently went to Tokyo and didn't touch work at all. The only way! For those who can'

I think you are right with the building analogy. Most stuff built in the last 25 years is crap quality! But importantly looks nice. Needs to look nice at first.
