It sounds like they're trying to – and I think probably will – but it isn't a sure thing yet. Resting in my armchair, I think they're trying to make deals with several other banks to absorb the SVB clientele. Maybe there&#x27

If your company didn’t pay you, would you work there? For how long? It’s not necessarily about the finances of the employees, it’s about the finances of the startups.

Almost no one is paid in advance. Most people expect to be paid on a regular schedule, e.g. biweekly, semimonthly, monthly. If you do the work and don’t get paid soon, what’s your expectation going forward?

FDIC is funded by insurance premiums of member banks but also can also request money from treasury (afaik never happened). So the money comes from banks paying into FDIC, not tax payers.

Yes but a week can be a long time. Startups trying to make payroll for the 15th might be in a tough spot.

Yes but many people want their money today, not in 10 years.

I wonder if the FDIC is just as efficient but this situation is different.

It’s not practical to shut off every appliance, particularly the major ones. The risk is probably greater for smaller kitchen appliances (eg George Foreman, waffle iron, etc) that don’t have the safety features of large appliances. As long

More utilities are rolling out time of use rates to encourage consumers to use electricity during off peak hours. Even if you don’t have a direct financial incentive, it’s better for the environment to shift your usage to off peak times. Th

How do you deal with so many base images only supporting a single architecture? We’d love to build multi-arch containers but don’t want to maintain all of our base images either.

I know a few doctors and they're not necessarily directly available to patients but have to be on-call for nurses, MAs, etc. It's not 24/7/365 but its more than I get pinged when I'm on-call.

I'd agree but I think they'll view any penalties as the cost of doing business. If they can find a way to reduce costs or raise profits by more than the penalty amount then it they'll absolutely do it.

davinci-003, ChatGPT, and others can be great tools. But they often give you exactly what you ask for (or at least try to) and a large part of writing SQL queries for analytics is figuring out what wasn't asked for but should have be

It could probably get much more accurate. The idea of using AI/ML to tune databases or optimize queries isn't new; I expect to see more recommendations from DB hosting providers as a premium service.

I think that's because most SQL analyst who can understand the data model, assumptions, quirks, etc. usually get promoted into other positions.

ChatGPT is search. Maybe not for you and me, but I've seen plenty of articles about how Gen Z uses TikTok as a search engine. ChatGPT cuts out a lot of friction of getting to an answer. With traditional search engines, you type in yo
