Kindle literally removed 1984 from people’s devices

I guess it depends what people consider the “millionaire lifestyle”, which must go up with inflation like everything else.

Tom Scott has a video on it

Is this the comic version of “Simpsons did it”?

Keep an accurate work diary, something high enough detail that you can look back on in several months and know what you were doing at what time on what day. Something you can then use to answer the question “Exactly, how many time this month were you asked to do X”, and the answer be precise.

Sounds like you might be being asked to do things you haven’t had training for, and don’t have the certificates for. In which case this becomes a legal liability issue, and something they can’t ignore, and can’t fire you for.

Also, be careful of the difference between “I have been asked by a manager to do this” and “noone else was doing it so I felt I had to”. If you’re speaking to patients about their medical issues without training or being specifically asked to, you could be getting yourself into trouble too.

The diary thing is useful for everyone in every job really. In your annual review (or quarterly, whatever) it’s incredibly useful to provide facts and figures for what you’ve been spending time doing. Particularly if you’ve got a manager who wants to downplay your efforts, or if you’re asking for pay rises/ bumps up to higher grades.

If your whole ecosystem is in azure, it kind of works. Similar to gsuite

Yup, after 25+ mins of conversation, often there aren’t any actionable takeaways and noone has taken ownership of anything.

I’d much rather spend a few mins working out who’s on the hook for what, rather than meet again in a week and discuss the whole thing again with zero progress in between.

Falling with style

Only on the Discworld

This still only talks about the how, I don’t see why anyone would ever need to do these operations. Other than copy pasting them around for configuration purposes, why does it matter what form they take?

What’s the use case for a human ever having to do this manually?

Dodging pedestrians?

There’s an early Grey’s Anatomy episode where it happened. Assuming the science is close to correct, there were chemical burns and dehydration as major issues.

What were the original 9 words? Are they particularly famous over there?

Ideas like this are exactly why the UK left though. Noone wants to be forced into something the don’t want to do, particularly wars.

People don’t wanna hear that around here. But I agree, with the right instructions it’s better than a junior Dev. Loads faster, and mistakes can be fixed faster, and if you update the prompts then it learns better from mistakes too.

It might be a config thing, but pretty often these scans will find issues which are only relevant on e.g. windows, when building a Linux container. Or the issue is in some XML parsing library in the base OS but the service never receives XML and isn’t public facing anyway. Context matters.

To be fair, absolutely noone knew what type of Brexit was being voted on. That minor detail was left out of any of the conversation.

Presumably the argument is “if I’m not going to understand what anyone is saying, can I at least be somewhere with less rain please?”

Not if you lived with my uni housemate. He was obsessed. I’m 100% done with it.
