I never used this address anywhere so comparatively not much. Oddly, almost none of it is in the spam folder. The other interesting bit is that someone seems to have been using this address for online purchases and lease agreements (fraudul

Good point. I had done this previously with my primary email, but it didn't occur to do the same here for some reason. I kicked off the Google Takeout process per another comment's suggestion.

It's been a while since I've read it, but I remember The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber being a very interesting take on how to build a scalable business by analyzing how successful franchises operate. It was an unexpectedly p

I resisted tabs on IE7 for years, preferring to keep dozens of individual windows open. Now I have dozens of tabs. One of these days I'll start making more use of tab folders :)

Both innate talent and hard work are orthogonal to achieving desired outcomes (and you can get there with either). If your talent or efforts are pointing in the wrong direction, you won't get to the outcome, regardless of how well-mean

Apparently I said it 18 times, which doesn't seem right to me. A Google search didn't return a single example, though there were some instances in replies. Wonder if those are included.

What makes it serverless is the ability to spin up instances on demand (including down to zero when not in use), while paying only when the resources are in use. Given Lambda's generous free tier, I'm literally paying nothing for

As someone who went with Lambda for my current project, I don't agree with this take at all. In fact, it's as boring of an implementation as you can imagine - a single "fat function" developed in .NET serving the entire

Fascinating to see a frequent use of emoticons in replies from early 1984, only two years after their invention.

The original assertion is literally how LLMs work. Saying that there's reasoning involved is the extraordinary claim here, and the one requiring evidence, not the other way around. Otherwise you're just asking them to prove a nega

Not sure if this covers all of your requirements, but consider whether ranked choice voting via https://www.rankedvote.co might fit the bill.

I posted about it above, but I tried to read Gravity's Rainbow right after Infinite Jest. While the latter was a bit confusing to follow early on, once you make sense of characters, it's pretty easy to keep going. The writing was

That's interesting, I tried Gravity's Rainbow on audiobook and came to a conclusion that written copy would be better due to sheer amount of detail and different characters. I'm no stranger to large tomes (tackled GR right af

I'm sorry this happened to you - nobody should be forced to consistently work on weekends without prior consent, let alone be let go for refusing. That said, there is an important lesson here. Tying one's identity to one's pl

Not sure this would work with every camera. My particular model does not support remote shooting over USB. Newer models of the same camera do and Sony even provides software to go the USB route.

After working for almost 3 years with a barebones work-from-home setup (standup desk + laptop), I finally invested recently in some equipment to improve upon my crappy laptop camera and a room with little natural light. The difference in my

Kudos to React maintainers for their focus on documentation. A year ago I decided to learn React and the official docs were instrumental in getting me up and running. For context, last time I'd done any serious coding was when I still
