You're drastically conflating two very different sides of the house. Hourly workers are generally employed in logistics, FCs, customer service etc. This segment dramatically increased in 2020, to 1.2-1 4M employees IIRC, and for the pa

Thanks! Your details of one time charges passing through to invoice/billing, probably bypassing aggregation, totally makes sense. I’m thinking of that case as something like “incurred line items” now. I haven’t seen that much as I’m mo

Interesting indeed! Im definitely not authoritative, but my partner did some biology research and field work in this general area. My slightly vaguer recollection is that yes for Sydney there was a big mass migration year when the marshes a

First off, I appreciate your related comments. Two questions Im curious about: You mention usage and one time charges as being distinct. Ive generally seen them treated as the same thing; “instant”, “action”, or “usage.” Effectively atomic

Dont forget co-selling discounts. First 100 messages free with a monthly resource. And is that per monthly resource, or each monthly resource?

Where is the SKU (equivalent) applied? IME the metering data is sourced from or near to the service. We cant move these per-customer-per-period variants there. So instead you have a fixed usage type/metering and use arbitrary “pricing

I suspect doctor_eval and yourself are talking past each other a bit. You seem to be conflating metering and billing in your model: > You raise or lower your prices on the hour boundaries. The new rows inserted after the price change wil

FYI, youre underplaying the migration aspect. For NSW, and I believe other states, their migration was a byproduct of habitat loss/pressure. Their native habitat is riverine and marsh lands, like macquarie marshes. As ag and surface wa

Coming from the CDN land this isnt true. We didnt put too much effort in to precision, but on the order of 99% of IP addresses get down to metro area. Cheap commerical providers like Maxmind get to the right postcode on the order of 90-95%

Well… your anchors of eth and btc are down about 25% in the last few days. And their reported “assets” are huge chunks of the total market value for a lot of these tiny sketch coins. So yeah, I expect its going to be rough when this get liq

No. You physically can not run a major (arena/stadium) tour without using live nation. They own or have cross deals with the production company, venue, etc. Even pre-merger they had their hands in many many many pies. Its not just ub

Im 10-15 years out if date, but no. When I was friends with MPA/CAA touring folks no one was pro live nation or ticket master. They were at best a necessary evil that you dealt with in order to get market/venue access. Everyone

From the CDN & authoritative name server side Ive mostly dealt with eyeballs and a smattering of devices. With ~1min TTLs itd be 80% in 5min, 95% in 20-30min, 99% at an hour, 99.9% 1day, the remainder entirely variable. Literally stoppe

No. Manufacturing NFA items without a completed and approved form 1 is a felony. IIRC most NFA items also need ATF preapproval before crossing state lines. This was Bad Idea City.

A sear is a standard part, and legal on its own. A specific design, an “auto sear”, prevents the weapon from locking back up in battery after the slide/bolt returns. That’s effectively a “machine gun” and unlicensed (technically, untax

As feet says, you seem to be missing the second part on a evolved rules based order. Building codes (the IRC, IBC, IFC, etc) are the exact opposite of a “big idea.” They’ve been learned by the work (and loss of) thousands of people over dec

A correction on terminology might prove enlightening. The US citizens working for the CIA are “spies”, handlers, or agents. Anyone who works for them, eg provides information, is an asset. They're not an employee, advisor, or “spy.” Th

Sorry for the delay, was traveling on holiday. In short yeah, using the incident status as the implied times makes sense for the bulk of cases. Totally agree on picking out signal from the users inherent actions, but allowing them to provid

How do you/users programmatically quantify MTTR (and related metrics) per incident, or in aggregate? Although it shades towards problem management this would seem necessary to achieve the claim of “reduces mean time to repair (MTTR).”

Ive run a major CDN and authoritative nameservice. Its small enough to not matter in most cases. A quick swag is Id expect 95% of traffic to respect the ttl. Another 4% will appear to have some sort of minimum ttl on the order of single dig
