Thank you for the feedback. Always good to get constructive criticism.

Great point. We use this for our solution design docs, and to display the final star schema in our dbt models that we then embed within our dbt docs. Given we use dbt for our warehouse, we don’t need to worry about the create table statements.

I’d never heard of it. Then my first encounter was in a company where someone had built a Python abstraction layer over the top to ‘make it easy’ and it just turned into a mess. But when done well, it’s much better!

An RSS feed is a publication that you can subscribe to without needing to give any personal information, such as your email address.

Website would publish their blog entries to an RSS feed so you didn’t need to keep going to their website, or give your email address to get it sent to you that way.

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.

Way easier to drink a drive-thru drink from a straw while driving. And it’s a drive-thru, so kinda assumed you’ll be consuming it behind the wheel. My toddler also has a habit of not fully creating a seal between his bottom lip and the underside of the cup. So a straw in that case saves a lot of spillage.

Thank you!

But does that equate to the power of AI doubling every 3.5 months?

I’ve been thinking about this, in conjunction with quantum computing and AGI for some time.

If AI follows anything like Moore’s Law, I don’t think it will be too long (decades) before we’ll be breaching the limit of 64bit, and we would need to go one way or another.

That said, based on the above, 99%+ of our existing jobs would have likely been fully automated, so the world would likely be a very different place, and 128bit computing likely would stand out as too big of an achievement.

True. I think someone else pointed this out as well. But I don’t eat a poultry drumstick. The English language is a funny thing!

Fascinating! Thank you all for the answers! I got an F in French at high school, which might explain why I hadn’t made the connection.

I’m not sure where you live, but salaries have dropped significantly here (Australia), although it would be fair to say they were back to pre-covid ranges. Two years ago, big banks were offering $250k base for a Senior Data Engineer. Currently the rate is around $170-180k.

Whoops. My bad. Adjustment made. Sorry :-/

Cool, thank you.

Ah, that’s a really good point. I hadn’t thought about that. I use Apple CarPlay and haven’t carried a wallet/cards in years.

Are there any non-Google, non-Apple OSs that allow for these (even if it is the Google app sitting in a sandbox)?

Is it absolutely 0% or is it 0% with a $10/month administration fee? If the former, don’t pay it off early, just set up a standing order/direct debit and let it pay itself down. If the latter, you need to calculate the comparison rate (which will get higher the closer you get to zero balance), and work out what the break even is. Then carry on paying until you hit the point that the effective interest is greater than the interest on your savings account and at that point pay it off in full.

While I think we can agree it’s not a mass exodus, and as a percentage it’s fractional, I would be really curious on the relative percentage of mods and higher activity users.

I wouldn’t be surprised if these were proportionally higher than the total percentage as they would be more attuned to what was happening.
