This is the way. Time yourself by hand. Automate. Use the saved time to automate further. Meet deadlines as if you were doing it by hand. Then during the inevitable crunch time you can miraculously come through. Each quarter, cut about 10% off the time you "need" to do automated tasks, showing constant improvement.

Lastly, always guard source code closely and be aware if coding on company time means they own that code. You can bring up that you think something can be automated, but this is a job they're gonna have to pay you extra for. Show a demo if you need to, but remember that coding automations isn't your job, so don't hand that over for free (payment in social capital depends on your job).

The key is that you're usually not following the recipe as accurately as you think.

Also, burnt out & liquid in means too hot. Calibrate your oven so you're actually baking at the temps the recipe calls for!

The "make it twice as long" is genius.

I have a prius prime! Works perfect for my use case. Everyday driving is full battery with maybe a bit of gas. Big long trips require no extra planning or stops.

Not for everyone, and i figure will last until EVs are nice and developed with better infrastructure up where i live.

Evo biologist here. These ideas are not really new to the field of evolution, but they are well laid out (if a little dense) & somewhat codified here.

The paper is an interesting read. Dunno if i agree with all of it yet, but it's good to see the case made for thinking about evolution as a process that spans systems come up again.

Fair point. There are bigger fish to fry but this is a change people can easily make 👍

They will. Mass extinctions worse than what we would cause have happened in the past.

We're just not part of it

Thing is, if you need a car you cant afford to not have one. My options are buy a used car or a new car. Used cars are difficult to gauge reliability. And anything less than 5 years old is only ~5k under the price of a new car.

Mf subaru people had the gall to show me 2018 forester with 20k miles on it and be like "$29,000". For reference, a new, 2023 forester with no miles costs $31,000. Insane.

Your choices are currently: buy a reliable used car for the MSRP of a new car and less warranty, buy a very old, unreliable used car for 2x-6x what it was worth 3 years ago, or buy a new car at or above MSRP.

Shits fucked yo.

I wish i could trust AI to do data entry.

Alright bub. You tried buying a car in the last 3 years?

You can still buy liscenses for office. I just bought a key off a shady vendor for $30 and have a fully activated, non subscription office 2022

Post exposure shots should be covered by nearly every insurance. The preexposure ones are not.
