I think this speaks to the bubble you're in and how your kind of software development probably represents 0.1% of what's out there. I don't even know what WebGPU, Warren Abstract machine or "whatever is that you're

Hm, my wife uses it daily for her classes which aren't tech related. She describes it as a very patient professor who meets her where she is at and doesn't judge. English isn't her first language too and sometimes she can ask

Are you using 3.5 or 4? And what kind of things are you trying to do ? It's not like asking it, copy + pasting results + paste errors loop takes a long time to validate if it works or not. Even when it doesn't work it saves me tim

Have you actually tried to use it ? I use it everyday and is absolutely amazing -- saves me a lot of time. We've also built automations around it and it saves our company a lot of time. It's already here and in use by many compani

Lol, the amount of databases running real production heavy workloads for the biggest companies in the world that haven't been updated in 10y is probably very high :) at least the ones I've seen ..

One can easily set up prometheus/grafana or ELK or sentry when you're that small on another VM.

I don't. I usually have ~100s of candidates per role. Is not practical

yeah I would say I'm fairly experienced and I absolute love their gifs and images. But I find the content very shallow overall and very oriented towards passing interviews - which I believe is their goal so :) I appreciate the gifs !

Yes that's also true. My core group of friends is no longer in my OG city as well for similar reason as me, as aren't most of my cousins. It's more uncles+grand+parents

Very nice! I've thought about something similar. Of course that a challenge is when you marry someone from yet-another nationality. Our plan right now is to try to get key members of the family that want to be together to where we&#x27
