I first want to say that I cringed reading the entire original article. But I want to address something you said as well, "TLDR Women are more picky th a n Men". This is highly age-dependent... On average : A 21 year old woman on

Nonsense. There were plenty of SaaS startups. I started an ISP in 1996 and had the same reaction you did to that statement in the article. The only thing I’d add to what you said is the article said what drew them to the cloud - hefty fre

What I’m saying is our Bloomberg bill went from $58,000 per month to the minimum usage for Bloomberg of $1,000 per month. Our new provider was about $10,000 per month.

Right there with you!! We just completed our conversion of Oracle Java to Azul Zulu Java late last year. Taken off 7,000 desktops and I don’t even know how many servers.

About 8 years ago our Bloomberg rep met with us and told us that our use of Bloomberg Data License that we use to load descriptives into our trading platform was going to essentially have a crippling price increase. They were going to be ni

My car’s visual sensors (i.e. my eyes) are often blocked by snow and ice. When that happens I hit a button to turn on the defroster that then gets rid of the snow and ice. Could they use a similar system?

Probably take 5 minutes to find an example order online from most judges in the country. Make a fake document to look just like it saying whatever you want. Send it in - how do they authenticate it?

Would like to see the product that Microsoft replaced the killed product with. For example; Edge isn’t dead. It just got replaced by a fork of Chromium. I called for them to give up on Internet Explorer and fork Chromium almost 8 years ago

Confirmed. Miners are angry about EIP-1559 that burned gas fees instead of paying them to miners and are even more angry about the transition to PoS where they will lose their income stream completely. The computer I'm typing this on i

Respectfully, you are reading English words like a robot and completely ignoring the context of the conversation. Similarly, if I were to say, "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" it would not be helpful for you to whip up cal

Took me a minute to understand what you were talking about. The context of my claim was, "Since transitioning to PoS, hash rate has only gone up". You seem to think it's disproved by the fact that hashrate has gone slightly d

Ethereum is moving to proof-of-stake this year. It was moving to PoS last year and the year before that. Now it's June, but I heard probably delayed to July. One telling thing is that ETH miners not only haven't sold their GPUs

You seem open to it which is good! One thing I would like to clarify - it isn’t “just in your head”. That’s a common misconception. These are long term emotional states that cause real physical changes that show up on scans. Myself, I had a

If you want to try it, don’t use the original power supply. They have a common failure where a voltage regulator will fail and feed high voltage on what should be a five volt line. Buy a recently made replacement power supply - there are to

I think there are many middle-men involved in these robocalls. The pattern I’ve seen personally is: 1. Offshore screeners asking basic information to pre-qualify the called party 2. Commission sales people adept at identifying actually inte

One thing to keep in mind - the price of the ruble doesn’t magically go down with intent. The quoted price moves with sales. So picture a scenario where literally nobody wants to buy the ruble. The price would literally remain unchanged. Th
