After spending a few months with chatgpt I'm skeptical. It's pretty stupid, more likely to be respond with inaccurate hallucinations than reliable output. It's most useful when I outside of my typical comfort zone and precise

Yes! It could be more expensive too, the real kicker is utility costs and how cold your climate gets.

I just think the cover letter is a byzantine chore that's easily faked. Not a real signal that the candidate is a good one. To your point "in the interview...", I think hammers home the post's key point that the real pro

It's not that it's more energy efficient than AC per se, just that running it in reverse to move heat into your house is much more energy efficient than using electricity to generate heat compared to electric resistance heat. Rela

They are qualitatively different because the rocket can traverse that amount of space scalably. The chairs cannot.

I relate very much to this. In particular the well intended but ignorant suggestions.. I think it's often hard for most people to truly appreciate a problem they don't have.

My wife is 2nd generation. Her father once asked "What's Latinx?" He thought the notion that Latin grammar had become politically incorrect as absolutely insane and offensive. While well meaning, I believe a lot of the ideas

As someone who was in a service role and subject to an opt in post interaction survey, I don't believe systems like this are effective. They select for Karens with unreasonable demands. They use the survey to retaliate against the empl

Snowflake at it's most basic is SQL on cloud vms, anyone comfortable with SQL should feel at home there. That said, there are many Snowflake specific features that may take a bit to become familiar with. Just off the top of my head: -

Gnome has really surprised me (in a good way). I was really just looking to have a better dev experience since I use containers so extensively. But the UI is really pleasant to look at and intuitive. I particularly enjoy not having to disab

I think any system is susceptible to problems like this if the underlying hardware becomes unavailable. Using dynambodb to obtain locks on s3 is a pretty common pattern in AWS development. This has more to do with AWS than Terraform.
