He said the quiet part out loud.

How many VPNs are running on ports that’d be allowed? Schools can easily restrict wifi to only allow 443 through a MITM proxy and 80 (which firewalls can easily inspect and drop TLS connections.)

Grammatically, probably not, but it definitely seems appropriate.

I regularly get 43-46mpg highway with my 4 cylinder TLX, drops off like crazy atoms town though.

I agree that economy peaked In the 80’s-early 90’s, but if you take into account how much bigger, and heavier cars are today, we’re not that bad. Also, a lot of weight and size goes towards the superior crash safety in modern cars.

I feel like there’s just so much crammed in this thing it’s going to be heavy right now, but if you look back, they used to be massive and heavy and have continued to get lighter and more compact. Give this a few generations, and I’m sure it’ll lighten up a bit and get thinner.

TLDR; never buy the first generation of anything.

Artificial scarcity…

But seriously, production for physical goods, you slow down because there’s too many on the shelves. I’m more talking about digital goods like app development. For them Production means features. The only time you scale back is that you either don’t know what features your buyers want, you can’t sell what you have produced, you have no bugs (which never happens), or you are trying save money/balance budgets where you don’t make enough to pay for the development teams.

If I was a shareholder or board member and heard “I don’t want to grow the company in ways you want with out a raise” I’d hear it as “he’s no longer doing the job we hired him for. Publicly going against our wishes.” Which is a short cut to getting fired in any other job on the planet.

Honestly the only reason I’d pay for O365 is for the included Cloud storage. A yearly family plan is $99.99, and includes up to 6TB of one drive storage, which isn’t a bad deal for Cloud storage if you need it.

Everyone I knew running into this solely use Firefox and thus assumed it was just YouTube or their ISP. None even thought about the browser aspect. I can’t see how it’s a very effective strategy unless they pop up with “try chrome, it’s faster”.

Developers: I could use AI to increase my output and productivity while better testing code and coming up with unique ways to speed up runtimes!

CEO: We could do the same output with less people!

Hopefully this will be more effective than the war on drugs.

AI could totally help here… seriously, once everyone gets laid off because corporations think AI is going to replace us all, there won’t be rush hour anymore!
