The surrounding cold winds would reduce or negate any potential harm from leaving the laptop on and it wouldn't be cold enough to hurt a laptop in a sleeve/cover.
Also, this would also affect electronics transitioning from a cool/dry room to a hot/humid outside area. Such as going from cold hotel room overnight to the blazing hot outside in asia in the summer.
Not only does AI have no chance of threatening my job security, it makes my job easier the better it gets.
A larger task that usually takes me 3 hours I can shave off 2 with chatgpt. A task that takes me 1 hour, it can perform instantly. It can do 80% of a project for me with high rate of success but it can't do the last 20% - but neither can 99% of the ppl in my industry do it either.
I also asked chatgpt how long it'd take to take over my job:
"With your extensive experience across "insert my field", it would take a while for me to match the depth of your real-world knowledge and decision-making skills. However, I'm already here to assist with tasks like data analysis, generating reports, drafting documents, and providing insights, which can make your work more efficient. While I can handle many technical aspects, the nuanced judgment, leadership, and human connection inherent to your roles are unique to you and require a human touch that I'm not designed to replicate fully."
I then asked it to estimate how long it'd take to do 80% of my job: Chatgpt said maybe 5-10 years.
While yes, grinding is good in moderation in their 20s, it also ends up creating harmful "grinding" habits later on in life, especially at corporate jobs where your future and promotions aren't based off of the "actual" grind.
That said, it doesn't mean they shouldn't be "grinding" in other aspects of their lives such as learning and honing their skills to grind that 2-year promotion by jumping around companies.
I'm an avid believer of only putting 50% in my day to day, and to only put in 100% when SHTF and have consistently proved my worth.
True, but from my point of view OP won because he was able to see through the aholes true plans causing the ahole to only get the crumbs of a much larger piece of the pie at the end.
To us and others it may seem to be a large sum, but to him it was definitely only a pittance of what he intended to take.
4.0 and below, yes, iffy. 5.0 and above - better connectivity, battery life, etc. 5.3 is the most current version and its loads better than 4.0 or 5.0.
Amazon sells usb powered water pumps, that with a 5 gallon jug and some diy can make a reusable sink (google camping sinks or portable handwashing stations)
With ads overpopulating the internet and everywhere we look on our streets its good to be able to mentally sort through the junk instantly and to pay no attention to it. I think of it as mental training/fortitude to be able to recognize the "scam" they're selling and to be able to overlook it and move on without a second thought - McDonald's will never look like how they do in their ads.
Reminds me of a marketing class I took in uni and how marketing is everywhere, it's one of the few practical courses that I can apply concepts to every ad I watch.
On the otherhand, there are some more "interesting" ads such as free screeners from ads on ig in my area that I have attended and were actually pretty good and definitely worth it.
There's also technical ways of blocking those ads. So no, youtube premium isn't worth it.
This. Exactly this. If you don't get it, that means you just haven't learned it yet. I have several guy friends who keep blaming the girls hes with, sure he's learned, but from what the girls say about him he still has a ways to go.
imo if you with your experience is already questioning these issues after 1.5 weeks it stands to show that this company, without a vast overhaul, seems to be the issue instead of you, as an individual.
It doesn't seem like a high-risk career move if you were able to substantiate your claims to recruiters/hiring managers/whoever in the event that they were to discover this inconsistency in your resume.
I have a friend who is in a similar situation. 10 years ago he was being charged $2500 for a line from a major street to his place last year he got another quote and they're asking for $15k. He's just using cell data right now as its simply cheaper than dishing out 15k for a line and then having to be locked into a $150-$250/month internet plan.
If they're serious about gaming just get a desktop build and buy a chromebook/ipad for school, much cheaper and will go further. Even the best laptops have noticeable decline after 2-3 years.
