Well, it’s like most things, it takes practice and time to be good at it if natural talent isn’t there.
Sure, things out of our control can trigger emotions, but one incredible ability of humans is to rationalize those emotions and act in more constructive ways than to immediate react back.
It can be quite liberating and fun to understand and process these things, much like understanding code and data structures in order to recombine them into things you want to achieve.
Fill in the form and send your iphone 11 in for battery replacement.
I've done this a few times w/different iphone models, works great, no fuss. The several days w/o the phone is nice forced social media detox.
Very amateur-ish question and counterpoint from me: how is Apple M1 performance and power consumption so good compared to the other laptop cpus then?

Hyperscalers & Meta.
(Corp speak 101: Hyperscalers = AWS, GCP, Azure)
Any improvement is welcome, hopefully it won’t regress after Olympics, but wouldn’t be surprised.
1. at least 2x a week, group meets on Mondays and Friday to set weekly expectations, 1:1’s as needed weekly or bi-weekly
2. bi-weekly
3. See 1.
4. Documentation is part of “definition of done”.
5.& 6. Start the week with making sure everyone understands their week’s tasks, have a demo Friday to see what was finished. Then pair as necessary - maybe check-in Wed w/juniors. For seniors and up, know and track the multi-week goals.

* has this impacted biases or political stances (extreme or middle) in any direction?
* has this impacted individual happiness in any way?
At ~160m, (similar to the 200m), at-pace speed for the pro is already all-out for the average person.
At financials (and sometimes sales departments), you have, from most junior to senior: 1. Associate 2. Analyst 3. Vice Presidents 4. Directors (MD - Managing Director)
Whereas in software/tech, it's usually Directors that are subordinate to Vice Presidents.

pick your poison, slower lookup or more disk usage

LLMs are not going to help if the input data is also garbage, let alone hallucinations.
“Are you dizzy?” - sometimes, I’m not sure… etc
> Most of China lives in one third of the country
Right, so U.S. has PLENTY of space ;)
I’ve been to rural China (village where my family and ancestors are), there’s tons of space to modernize and build still, China def not out of livable space.
A sibling comment about people cramming into the same area seems way more accurate.
Also, look up the population density of different countries:
* China has ~4x the people of the U.S. with similar land area
* India also ~4x US population and has 1/3 of landmass
* Russia has ~2x landmass of US, but only ~1/2 population.
There’s plenty of space for more people. Just gotta be less lazy and destructive and build, build, build. Finding how incentives align & not as game-able would also help.
The code allows for a lower minimum wage when tips are involved.
Getting rid of this complication in the tax code would make owning restaurants harder, but fix other societal issues.
Can’t say it’s be an easy decision or trade off to make - a lot of restaurants wouldn’t be able to stay in business and those who like eating out would have a lot less and more expensive choices.
If someone copies this code and uses it in a non-toy application, well, that’s on them.
This isn’t even considering quality of care, only quantity.
For other professions, if there’s already a glut of supply,… well, we don’t really need more ads or reality tv shows or sensational/viral clickbait.
Language toolchain.
You have to do this for all the languages, not just Python. Hence nix and other tools were made.
Though, in my experience, asking that question to people in China (or from there) is generally met with:
* I don’t know, not interested in politics
* Chinese people live there so they’re a part of China (not separating gov from race/ethnicity as a naive answer)
* (no comment)The short history version is basically like this: after the overthrowing of the last emperor and WW2, the Chinese civil war continued between the KMT political party and the Communist party. KMT basically lost and moved to which is Taiwan today and even the KMT now is no longer the controlling majority now (they have elections whereas mainland China does not).
superset is the flip side of grafana; not good for up-to-second updates, but good for complex queries. Also, non-time series stuff. Ex: Which customer groups bought which products for all time? <— that type of BI stuff.
So it’s basically lisp, with either lists or atoms, at the char level
