I'm rusty with specific languages and skillsets I rarely use (e.g. I don't use CSS every day, and forget Python JSON/XML/IO interfaces).
If I need to do something that requires those skills, it used to take me an hour to get up to remember how to do everything, and another hour to do the work. With ChatGPT it took ~15min as it handled all the boilerplate/basic stuff I was previously grabbing from documentation. It's not hard or impossible to do without it, but it did save me significant time.
If you're an efficient engineer with photographic memory, it will not significantly improve your workflow. If you're an average generalist programmer who uses Stackoverflow more than once a day, GPT models will save you time.
One more healthcare note - I had a lapse in coverage between jobs and my state health exchange (Thanks Obama!) was ~1/2 the COBRA price. That's what was recommended by my HR company at the job I was leaving. This was in CA, but similar situation in MA.
Yes, it's an absolute dick move. If it's that bad, accelerate his cliff and let him leave early.
Had a situation where I was let go 2 months before my cliff in an advising/part-time situation, and while I won't say anything negative about the company and most of my colleagues, I was honest in respect to the exec teams behavior. Zero of the 4 applicants who I relayed that to accepted their offers. Was my small equity stake worth (potentially, may have had other reasons) 4 hires?
Some of the popular restaurants in my town use a booking app called Seven Rooms, which does not have a "notify me" feature like Resy & OpenTable if there are cancellations on a date you're looking for.
Made a bot to check for my desired dates and times and ping me if something opens up.
I think it really depends on school Z. If it's a flagship, top in-state school (Michigan, Berkeley, UCLA, Virginia come to mind but aren't the only ones), you may have a better social experience and still have the ability to meet top talent. If it's one level below that, I'd consider MIT.
E.g. In CA I'd put Berkeley/UCLA at close to MIT for undergrad and a more fun place, but I'd choose MIT over UCSB or UCSD for academics and future career options. Not that there aren't smart, driven students at those schools, resumes speak for you to some extent and will open more doors.
You're not the only one making this decision, other smart kids are making the same choice. I chose a large state school over smaller, "higher ranked" private schools and regret nothing. I had a much more "fun" experience than any of my friends who went to those other schools, and I find most of their friends pretty unlikable (douchey rich kids).
Are there security/UX risks with users getting used to using their wallet for auth ? It's difficult to know a safe vs. potentially unsafe site when it comes to crypto. Reading the docs, it appears to be relatively limited permissions, but either by giving more permissions than desired or phishing? Or can they combine the authentication with additional information to become a more effective spearphishing target?
If my email account is phished or hacked, it's bad, but there's a level between my cash and my email account. If I make a mistake here, potential losses are higher. In which case I'd probably have a 2nd wallet for auth and another I actually use, which then becomes more of a pain. I don't trust my parents or less technical relatives to use this flow safely.
Start at your local government, figure out what they can and can't do to help. Go to the next level, figure out what can and can't be done at that level. Keep going.
Generally accepted logic is that visible payoffs are not immediate but several years down the line for more senior roles. Ex. when someone is looking for a VP/Director/C-Suite role, the network and resume line items are more valuable. Most people will go back to similarly leveled roles, potentially in a different industry (like engineering -> finance/consulting).
Evan can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it was one centralized service with all the schemas. You could view older versions and make new versions via the UI.
It was pretty user-friendly and managing schemas was straight forward. Haven't done anything similar since so no comparison point, but I thought it was fantastic and improved data quality a ton.
I've had 2 friends start revenue generating MVPs on Bubble.io
One is a Cameo-like platform for LatAm, the other is a TikTok like short-form audio app .
I've been incredibly impressed by the platform and extensibility. If you have basic coding skills I think it's much more powerful than Webflow or other platforms.
... Or in the real world where the rest of us live, not strawman land, like taking your license and right to drive away if you get a or DWI/DUI - which is what happens to normal people. If you're rich and have good enough lawyers, you can become a congressman.
Cars are licensed, insured, and highly regulated. Do the same thing and we'll be happier than we are now.
