No, but if you low ball the numbers you put in the job ad then the people you actually want for the job won't apply.

That would be great! Really appreciate your write up, this space is really fascinating. The short cache / no stateful Writer / no searches on Writers thing stood out to me as a key differentiator to something like Grafana Loki.

In Husky, how do you maintain very short cache times in your Writers without blowing up your S3 write costs?

To put these billing errors in context, our account suddenly showed ~$12,000,000 in usage fees. I saw some others posting bills high as 100s of millions. Pretty heart attack inducing.

I think that's absolutely true when it comes to the media's treatment of past outbreaks, but that doesn't apply to the situation in Ukraine, it's the opposite. The mainstream did not take the threat of Russian aggression

People give a shit now because it’s a major escalation with a nuclear power. That was not true with their invasion in Georgia or the previous incursions in Ukraine. This is a genuinely newsworthy and alarming event, I’m not sure what you ex

CO2 is transparent to visible light but not to infrared, so it allows sunlight to heat the surface of the earth but impedes its cooling. Smoke and soot is not transparent, so it blocks sunlight from heating the surface in the first place.

You might just be overthinking it. It means the same as “slow and steady wins the race”.

That time period featured the longest depressionary period in US history with large spikes in unemployment [1] [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Depression#:~:text=In%2... .

The article you cited is from 2002. Japan has been mildly inflationary on average since the late 2000s. Unemployment spiked significantly during the deflationary period and has been dropping since.[1] You can see a similar pattern in the US

It's a multi-dimensional spectrum, it can't be captured adequately by a single number.

The federal contractor mandate is not in place, it was put on hold by the courts and none so far has sided with the Feds. The federal private business mandate is gone, it was quashed by the Supreme Court. What states decide is separate from

If you’re in the US, the federal vaccine mandate was quashed by the Supreme Court, so no need to be terrified.

Apparently this is under the jurisdiction of the railroad police, not LAPD. Not clear to me what jurisdiction that falls under but sounds like it might be federal.

Climate is not chaotic, weather is chaotic. Without any models at all we can predict that the Sahara desert will be hot and dry many many years out.

Except NFTs don't store the item, they only store a creator-defined URL hypothetically pointing to the item or a hash of it's contents. Also nothing guarantees the royalties if you can just download the item. Nothing in NFTs pre

A deed is to land, the land still exists if the house is gone. Your example is more like owning a title to a car that's been shot into the sun. It has 0 value.

Those numbers really don’t tell the tale. The problem with looking at raw bed numbers is that all kinds of not so good pressure valve mechanisms go into effect as bed capacity drops, such as: * cancellation of elective and non-urgent surger
