or here's another example: I recently cut a ton of over-provisioned cloud resources: https://x.com/omarish/status/1828272808717111308 there was zero service degradation from this change. the only metric that went down was my burn rate. I'd gladly pay some function of LIBOR + the amount of monthly savings someone could deliver, without degrading performance.

Sure, lots of caveats here. But let's not talk about this idea in abstract; let's talk about real-world needs. * This wouldn't need to be a FT employment agreement * And this probably wouldn't be a substitute for eventually bringing on a FT infra engineer. Continuity, roadmap, etc etc caveats, yes I know, it optimizes for short term results. but right now I am strategically thinking short term. But like even if it only takes an hour of work, all the better.

What would happen if we compensated infrastructure engineers like we paid a top trader, or a pro golfer? Purely based on performance and results: My company's CI pipeline is frustratingly slow. `git push origin master` to production rollout can routinely take 10 minutes. We deploy a lot, and that 10 min is a huge tax on productivity and velocity. What i'm "supposed" to do today: * Put up a job posting for an infra engineer * Sift through 100 profiles, interview 10, negotiate, close, start date, etc etc etc and * maybe in a few weeks/months, I found the right person and my CI pipeline is faster. What I want * Let's say mean build time is 600 seconds, and * Mean time to failed build is 480 seconds. I'll gladly pay someone $10 for every second of mean build time they can reduce, and $20 for every second of mean failed build time. So let's say you can get it down MBT=60s and MFBT=30s I'd gladly pay a talented contractor $14,400 to deliver those results ((600-60)*$10 + (480-30)*20). Probably more.

People who use TypeScript and VSCode (or Cursor) for small-to-medium sized codebases (~4k files, ~280k LOC): Does your editor ever get into a state where the problem count fluctuates wildly? One second everything is great, next thing it thinks I'm targeting netscape navigator and has 9999 problems

Yeah -- I had asked if there was something they could do but they came back with a no. And I agree, it would have built a ton of brand loyalty if they did offer to help.

Working on getting my two year-old daughter into programming and computers. Any other parents on here want to talk about what's worked well? Got her this recently and it's been watching her learn about loops: https://education.lego.com/en-us/products/coding-express-by-lego-education/45025

I know I'm supposed to be the bigger person and just forget about it because technically they didn't do anything wrong. So I'll start doing that :). Hope everyone has a good 4th of July weekend and I'm looking forward to engaging more here in the second half of 2023.

This has been weighing on me for a few weeks and I just need to say it. There's a company on here that claims to be builder friendly, were once customers of ours (and promised to stick around), used our APIs to build an MVP and raise funding, took our data, and then demanded we not mention them ever again.

Feel free to change the <5> with any other token ID And to see a smaller-size preview, replace "original" with any image dimensions and format - so like 200x200.jpg as an example.
