Taking a huge risk with the naming here, I would be expecting to hear from a Microsoft lawyer any minute (Due to MS's flagship 'SQL Server Management Studio').

e: Don't let this dishearten you, I only would consider a name change to be more of your own brand. When I saw 'SQL Studio', I assumed MS had created an online version of their product. This looks like a well-done passion project.

> all they had to do to label a cow “free range” or “grass fed” was change the finishing stage to a lower density configuration instead of those abominable feed lots you see along highways.

And this is exactly what people have wanted, and are willing to pay a premium for.

Interesting. All the Flock cameras around me are stationed around the entrances to Lowe's parking lots.

You missed the touch of sarcasm. It's a joke, recent AWS announcements have been heavily AI-focused.

Kevin was CTO / head of product engineering at Windsurf, Anshul was a founding engineer

If they can fund a fork, they can continue business as usual until the need arises

Abundance of natural beauty and recreation opportunities

The physics of heat pumps disagrees with you. The freezing point of water has no bearing on at what point they become less effective.

For the past ten years I've run a side project that estimates the word count of books and how long it takes to read them. Maintaining and improving this requires tens of hours a month, and a few hundred dollars in RDS, ECS, etc. costs. Two years ago I was at least breaking even on affiliate income, so the cost put into it was purely my own time and effort which I enjoy. These days my total traffic numbers are about 10x, but human traffic is down 50-70%.

I'm basically paying to host content for AI crawlers to scrape and I don't know how much longer I can do this. I'm adding Goodreads-esque features currently, but if it doesn't get the sign ups I'll be forced to archive the code and take the site down.

Frame or shape leather hide to hold water, add water and hold over flame or add hot rocks.

Are you using the same tools as everyone else here? You absolutely can ask "why" and it does a better job of explaining with the appropriate context than most developers I know. If you realize it's using a design pattern that doesn't fit, add it to your rules file.

Companies don't do these acquisitions with cash on hand. It's OpenAI and the whole pool of their creditors and investors.

Lighter fluid can make plastics brittle. Odorless mineral spirits, shop towels, and gloves would be my next step.

Or further the hype and name it o9.

Assuming `samwcurry@gmail.com` belongs to the same person who owns samcurry.net, they changed their own password.

Great! My wife was reading me ticket prices for an event on Ticketmaster yesterday, I kept telling her she needs to add them to the cart and start checkout to know the real price. She did just that and to my surprise the price didn't change at all!

I don't have SS cookware, but cast iron is basically non-stick. A teaspoon of oil isn't going to break the bank.

Food-safe wood conditioner (or just beeswax, or coconut oil, etc.) is basically free, and you should be taking care of everything wooden in the kitchen on a semi-regular basis. If your wooden cookware is degrading, I'd be more worried about the state of your wooden cutting boards.

If your cooking utensils are gouging or pulling up 'seasoning', it's not 'seasoning'. Seasoning is a micrometer-thin layer of polymerized oil. What you're describing is carbon build-up from a poorly cleaned pan.

At least once a week I give my vintage cast iron a good scrub with Dawn powerwash and chainmail, dry on the stovetop, apply a layer of Crisco, and then wipe it all off as if I put it on by mistake.

Tangential, but anyone interested in literature should read "The Sagas of the Icelanders" if they have not already. The early Norse and Icelandic sagas are a treasure trove of great stories. I think about them nearly every day and it's fun to recognize similar plot points in modern novels.

Seriously, why is it so hard to find a protein powder that doesn't include Stevia (or its distilled, chemical name). I don't care about my protein powder being sweet, but if it's gonna be sweet, give me some raw sugar. Stevia is bitter and ruins the whole shake.

Peak bagging is a very common term in the outdoor sports world. This complaint is like a non-tech person reading a Wired article that mentions JSON and complaining that there's no explainer.

I would absolutely love this!

It's not fair competition, healthcare is full of players competing with each other in a highly regulated marketplace. The system has been set up in a way (generally with good intentions, you want doctors to have expensive malpractice insurance for example) that no matter who is providing the services, the costs to the end user are going to be high.

You'd have to use the volume of earth, not the mass. Google tells me that lava is ~3x denser than water.

You can similarly use materialized views for this type of denormalization. When an update to the source tables occur you can trigger a view refresh.

Truly, 100B nodes needs some sort of aggregation to have a chance at being useful. On a side project I've worked with normalizing >300GB semi-structured datasets that I could load up into dataframe libraries, I can't imagine working with a _graph_ of that size. I thought I was a genius when I figured out I could rent cloud computing resources with nearly a terabyte of RAM for less than federal minimum wage. At scale you quickly realize that your approach to data analysis is really bound by CPU, not RAM. This is where you'd need to brush off your data structures and algorithms books. OP better be good at graph algorithms.

I'd be real curious to see their ROI calculations on this strategic move. Laying off those 1800 employees will cost them $260 million, before factoring in hiring costs for 1800 highly technical replacements.

Salaries for experienced SWEs in Boise are cheap. Looking at levels.fyi there's a recent salary from an Android engineer with 5 years of experience grossing 143k. If they're looking for FAANG talent they won't even be able to poach a college grad for that amount.

In the Boise market, Intuit is laying off 157 employees and announced the closure of their campus due to Boise not being a strategic location for AI R&D. This comes after Intuit bought the Boise-local time-tracking software company, TSheets, and expanded the TSheets campus with a second building to accommodate up to 900 employees.

If it looked for `://` then stuff like `mailto:me@fake.email` would break.
