I'm in that group, and could afford (and am interested) in owning one of these. Many offset the downsides of the generator with solar, which is increasingly viable, but having it all in a EV especially considering fuel prices is a drea

I have a Class C along with an ebike to partially mitigate this. To me it's still worth it, although I definitely agree with the tradeoffs. I also am "full time" nomadic during the summer months, so if I want to stop in somep

Thanks for this. It's funny how stemmed from some british dude who essentially made it up and people bought into it. I was also surprised by all the other terms I seen floating around that are a similar thing

It'd be crazy if they didn't. Especially after the covid bubble and running headlong into economic uncertainty.

I've been working on day trading now for just over 5 years. I even took a sabbatical for 1.5 years to fully dedicate myself to it. Still struggling to be consistently profitable. I figure it's going to take me another few years to

What's crazy is that the EDI market is still cornered with VAN's charging absurd rates. It still shocks me everytime I get involved in a project and the EDI portion is like $100,000 a year in VAN charges and they don't blink

Yeah people's contact information changes over the years, especially these days. Some people I develop a close enough relationship with to exchange personal email accounts, the majority I don't. I'm independent as well and so

There are lots of movements to get away from such platforms, but are underground for the most part. Places like /r/digitalminamalism on reddit. The majority of people are not interested enough and do not have enough self awareness

I'd never considered this perspective before, but after a 14 year relationship ended for me the exact same happened. I never before linked the two changes together, ty for that.

20+ years as well and this is spot on. I've also been up and down the ladder including coding, management, director, etc. I eventually decided I liked the technical path much more, and that freedom was a very important value for me, so

I see this too as an independent. As a company brings on more SAAS stuff it gets more complicated to manage, and integration to legacy will always exist, in fact often enough it can entrench the legacy even more as more and more integration

There's also the excellent https://www.nand2tetris.org/ From basic computing gates all the way to running tetris. It taught me so much of the lower levels. Also a comment as a former Gentoo user of 7+ years - the perfo

Very good counterpoints, especially the second. I suppose there is also the chance that recycling and reuse options continue to advance as technology moves forward.

You've just moved the landfill to your house, instead of somewhere else. Where do you think it's going to go when you are dead? Waste is created at purchase, not at exit.

I don't maintain my profile or participate, but I have an account. It's so that people can contact me, primarily because it's impossible to do so via any other site because I don't maintain any other social media that&#x

Plus a whole number of other distributed projects over the years. Everything web3 is just hyped ideas that are already out there, in some cases for 10+ years.

Sorry to break it to you, you aren't going to have any profit with this one either. Practically by definition anything open sourced would erode any edge it has until it's not worth running.

Yeah, one of the best companies I worked for had a referral payout. It was primarily because they were growing so rapidly and were having trouble finding good people. The referral only got paid out after the person passes the 3 month probat
