  My health insurance costs 842€ a month. I pay half of it, the other half my employer. So I am quite impressed with the $20 from the estimation.

  But why do two jobs? Won’t people do a better job concentrating on one thing and getting $2000 for that, instead of gaining experience in two different areas at the same time?

  Let me fix that!

  I define € means ∈ in the context of my comments.

  I define € in the context of currency to be written as „€uro“

  I learned something new here!

  I thought an orgy would imply that for each fucking tuple (h1, h2) € F[H], there exists at least another pair where (hx, h3) € F[H], hx € {h1, h2}, so that there are not two disjoint strict subsets of O.

  In textual words: When Tobi and Torben have sex, and Brunhilde and Gudrun have sex, I thought this is not an orgy. There must be a connection between those two pairs. I bet I am having an orgy with a lot of strangers by the definition of this paper.

  Twitter turning into Truth Social?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube comment deletion is out of control, can't say anything anymore even when completely sensible. Is there a text format (alternate characters) that allows you to bypass detection?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe it’s the creators that delete your comments as well. Doesn’t have to be only YT.

  Do backups. Don’t forget to test if recovery works as expected.

  I also like to give AI my code and just ask to rewrite it, implementing a cleaner solution and upholding best practices. Most times, there are things that are really an improvement!

  Isn’t paying for subscriptions exactly the zeitgeist? People pay for Netflix, instead of just recording stuff for free and sharing copies among friends and family. It’s convenience you pay for (if we keep Netflix originals out of scope)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HP executive boasts that its controversial ink subscription model is "locking" in customers⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This printer was paid for by my employer in 2017. I would have never spent 250€ on a printer. And I often did not use it because it had run out of ink and I was too lazy or occupied to take the 5 minutes to order it. So now this is taken care of.

  It is also the best printer I have ever had and the longest living. But it is also the first one that cost more than 50€ so the reason might lie there.

  So… you have the full game encoded in an NFT? That sounds like a shit ton of overhead.

  I have never encountered this product. Can you give a brand/product name example?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HP executive boasts that its controversial ink subscription model is "locking" in customers⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually like my printing subscription. I pay like 5€ a month (I don’t quite remember) and don’t have to think about buying new ink, Monitoring the status of my ink level, or facing the issue that I suddenly ran out of ink and can’t print.

  That’s what I pay for. I probably pay more than before, but 5€ a month is really negligible. It’s less then one Starbucks coffee.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What moment from a video game made you cry?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “To the moon” Nice little point and click adventure. I played it through one afternoon and was sad for the following two days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be amazed by the uses of Tech...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would look at it from a different angle. Before the internet you had to have a lot of knowledge in different areas to be able to sound and behave smart, and also to make good choices.

  Now you have knowledge readily available everywhere and there is much less incentive to learn things you don’t currently need, just to have it available in case you talk to someone about this topic.

  This has become even more evident with AI, where you don’t have to skim through a lot of context to find your information, you just ask what you need and it is presented the way you need it right away.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Any recommendations for a career change?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am in servicenow. The bigger aspect of the job is talking to people to figure out what they actually want and design the implementation with all the best practices in this overly complex environment. The technical implementation that follows is a nice change of pace. I like the mix in both, talking and configuring. (You can’t really call it developing, the dev aspect is rather small)

  I fully work from home, travel to the office four times a year for the team events.

  If you write someone an email and include your phone number then it is completely okay for them to call you back.

  I would also check the box at not eating three times a day. Because I eat so much delicacies in the evening, that I don’t need breakfast any more 😅
