I am the first one to wake up (with an alarm) in my house on weekdays. I also find the light from the phone actually helps me wake up slowly. If I don't wake up early (get ready myself) and get the kids ready for school, it'll have a cascading effect on the whole day, so screen time works for me for that purpose. And it's usually only 10-15 minutes max. In that time, I don't see or do work stuff. Since, we have family around the world, I usually just go through the family chat messages, some light social etc in that time. I get why it's a bad habit but I also have a reason why it works. On weekends, of course the alarms are off and I wake up when I wake up.

"Amazon" may not, but the manager, VP, SVP etc may. Careers aren't made by having the right skillset. They're made by having the right set of contacts. YMMV


Sure, but someone leaving on bad terms (especially if they’re relatively junior) isn’t super likely to be one of those people eh? They call it ‘burning bridges’ for a reason.


That's not even the same thing. The govt is bankrupt because it keeps printing money to get out of previous debt and other poor choices. The companies are following the rules and taking advantage of loopholes in the system.


It keeps printing money because we have socialism for the rich, they are never allowed to lose now.


the data needs a bit of a cleanup. I see N100 showing up with "Intel 100", Intel Alder Lake N100" and just "3.4 GHz" in various places.


Is this for the CPU column? That's actually one I spent the least time on, since there was so much variation with how sellers entered processors. I'll take a look at it, thanks.


Update: cleaned up CPUs a bit.


That is not what the license costs even for relatively small deployments.


I can't find it now but I think I read words to the effect that performance is degraded if one isn't using the correct license or something, even for v23.x versions.


No longer free for businesses with over $10m revenue


Denmark is the same. Only the smaller startups use Slack. Everyone one else is on Teams.


The stories presented are from an earlier era but maybe still relevant.


That is an inspiring read. I almost went down this path when I got laid off last. I still somewhat regret taking up a corporate job back then instead of focusing on something else. But then, I probably wasn't ready. Thanks for writing this Peter.


thank you darkstar (peter here)
