Absolutely. GitHub Code Search is by far the most valuable online development tool I have used the past year. It is so much more useful than Copilot or any of the AI LLMs in my experience. With Code Search, I have: * Rewritten a CMake bui

The message being sent to customers claims that they “remain more aggressively priced than our peer providers”, which is nonsense as far as I can tell—unless they now consider their “peer providers” to be the likes of AWS, Azure, and GCP? H

Thanks for the clarification! Since you’d mentioned IM administration it didn’t cross my mind that you were talking about Spravato. That typo is regrettable, but unimportant to your point that the nasal spray does indeed use two fixed doses

In my experience, finding purpose is not an easy process, but it is at least a simple one to start. Personal values are the things you care about. Going through a list of core values[0] and rating them on a 1–5 scale should give clarify on

It seems to depend somewhat on the input image. Software like ImageOptim[0] brute force the best compression by trying multiple different compressors/modes and picking the best result and there is rarely a consistent winner. That said,
