   WordPress is an open source project that anyone can host. That 40% number is probably true for WordPress installations . Not all WordPress installations are hosted at Automattic (the company). Thus it's hard to understand how 40% of a

   What's terrifying about it? Serious question. Lately people are associating all sorts of doom to LLMs so I'm curious to understand.

   So your requirements are: 1. Reliable speech to text from multiple possibly identifiable speakers 2. Long-term knowledge storage and retrieval Speech to text is a solved problem, AFAIK with a caveat: single speaker. You'd need to train

   Metrics sample rate yes but logging sample? When an end-to-end transaction for a very important task breaks, do I get *some* breadcrumbs to debug it?

    They are nice for quick experimentation, yes. But there are rock solid projects like Cilium using them. I think your point is that the barrier to abuse is lower?

    Basic DevOps is easy enough to grasp and apply, especially if it's just the CI part. I'd say all developers should learn a bit of that. Actual "infrastructure engineering" (cloud or not) is a different beast. It requires

    Since you have experience with frontend, mobile apps seem like the logical choice here. But web development is huge. Are you saying you can't find jobs that _pay well_? Maybe you can consider specializing further into web development f

    My initial impression was good but the extreme "safety" blocks in Gemini are what makes me still use ChatGPT (which isn't great in the regard either but not as bad as Gemini). I wonder if they even have a way to track how muc
