Yes today I had administrative tasks all morning. Then meetings. Then a fault with the email provider in production. Then in the last brain fried hour of the day attempted to code but didn't get far.

Yeah I think you might be correct. I used the wrong term but I guess what I don't like is the idea of calling someone's boss to get them fired for saying something mean online. On the other side I'd not want people on my team

I'm pro free speech and hate when people get cancelled for their beliefs. I don't think firing was appropriate based on the story told in the article, but also recommend not acting like the author. Not to avoid being fired but to

I think they're arguing that you get a performance gain. Personally the systems if deal with wouldn't gain from such and optimisation as there is too little data. So I'll stick to the simplest approach.

One possible factor is the cost of backwards compatibility.

I'll have a look. The last time I touched anything open source in this space it was Adempeire. That was not a good experience.

My wife couldn't sleep through my snoring after we had our first child. Her hormone changes gave her trouble sleeping and the extra tiredness, from a baby, meant my snoring got worse. She demanded that I go to a doctor to sort it out.

My reflux seems to have gone now that I'm on CPAP for my Apnea. No idea if that would apply to anyone else but I still thought it was worth sharing.

Perhaps this is an American culture as I don't ever hear this in NZ.

>Western society promotes the propaganda that nothing is worth doing unless you are being paid for it. I don't find this to be the case. Many people in my circle of friends see earning money as a means to an end. Hobbies and charita

>Despite this, I'm having trouble applying for jobs. I usually don't meet any of the requirements, as I don't have actual work experience that the job description expects. And when I do apply, I get rejected before an inte

I've used many different databases. They're all very similar I've not had trouble adjusting. Every ORM I've used has required more time to learn. I'm not against ORMs but I've yet to see a situation where one w

They look perfect but the most I've ever spent on a car works out to be about $4.5K in USD. I guess the running costs would be lower but this is well over double the most expensive car I've ever owned.

Thanks for the reply. Yes we use Jetstream. Just Nats with Jetstream on. I've found it to be very simple to run. We have a small team so our complexity budget is low.

Any chance there will be Nats support in the future?

What I want in travel is warm and dry. Get me a small warm dry single person electric vehicle for cheap and I'll be in. For now I'll use my car.

It sounds like it gets stuck in solution.

That 2% is still a big cost. I think In-Situ Resource Utilization is what we need to make it cheap enough to do more in LEO. I know it's insane but mining water in space and sending it back to earth seems to be one of the best options.

I would really like to work in a team with someone like you in it.

That doesn't really detract from the cluster of coincidences.

Yeah, it comes down to cost benefit. Different situations require different qc strategies. But the fact that something is not 100% effective is not. Good argument against it.

I've heard the same argument against unit testing and strong typing.

It sounds like you might be mixing concepts. Accounting records can duplicate copies of information without needed links to the original. Sometimes this is better. You want a snapshot of what things were at the transaction time.

Wow, that's a radically different view than mine. Can you expand on your world view and your views on the value of life? It would be interesting to understand where you're coming from.

But look at it the other way. This normalizes suicide. It will increase the number of people that are temporarily in a bad way ending their lives. That is not a good outcome.

Yes but the Canadian government has programs to address all of these things. https://obesitycanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/OC-2020-... https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada&#x

Find an industry that has poor automation and build the tools they need. Cabinet making is one that could use some help.

You're not wrong it's an incredibly hard problem. It feels so wrong to me that ethnicity can be a factor in healthcare like this. I work with a few refugees. They work on a production line. Poor English and no education means they
