Yes, that would be complicated. EXCEPT most of what amazon sells is Company A in China makes product -> Company B imports and sells on amazon. That's easy to calculate.

If you are attending the meeting as well as using an AI note-taker, then you should be able to ask the clarifying question(s). If you understand the content, then you should understand the AI notes (hopefully), and if you ask for clarificat

No, I would say at this point a lot of people who say they use twitter feel the need to say they aren't a nazi nor do they support nazi's. YOU may not feel that way, but a lot of people do, and they don't want to be associate

Here's an interesting thought on your "gotcha" - I'm 57 years old, been programming as a career for over 30 years, a lot of languages and I have no idea what the difference is.

But see - that's part of "negotiation" too - you need to make them want you before you hit them with higher demands. If you're up-front you might not even get the interview.

Anecdotal, but in my area (Central US-IL), we had Verizon as the telco many years ago and we had Verizon DSL (Comcast was the only other choice at the time). We had only 1 issue w/ Verizon and it was fixed quickly. Frontier bought them

Forgot to mention their appallingly bad self-checkout systems - one of the worst I've ever used because of anti-theft measures. I will say I went to Schnuck's the other day and it was actually worse because of their UI.

If your vehicle costs that much for a "simple" repair you're going to be suffering from expensive insurance too.

This makes it relatively easy to chain calls if necessary - call one api to get a authn token and then call another with the token you just got. I think that postman and insomnia can do that, but it's a breeze from the command line.

And as a programmer who preferred more c style languages, vb.net sucked (and I understand that's just, like, my opinion man). Way more verbose with weird syntax. Can't remember the exact syntax for lambdas, but it was a joke.

It seemed like they were talking about large vs. small vehicles - not have vs. don't have a vehicle at all. And that's a lot different. The US could pass legislation making large vehicles more expensive and fuel efficient vehicles

Assuming that 'IL' means US-Illinois, not sure if Israel has legalized. On the case of US-IL, the problem is that there's no competition (after 3 YEARS), because of the obvious corruption in the process from the beginning. Bu
