What happens if the OpenAI failure is because of lack of demand from their customers and the market in general? None of the AI providers or hardware providers will survive, no?
Block the AWS IP ranges. You will have reasonably good results blocking all datacenter ranges - cloud providers, VPSs etc., if you don't expect traffic from them. You can get the ranges from Udger (paid) and it isn't very bad w.r.to false positives. Alternatively just whitelist expected regions and block everything else. More false positives prone, but easier.
I'll probably pay 10 - 20% more for an "old school" hotel room with a clock radio and standard phone to call the front desk. No other "non-essential" electronics other than multiple well-placed power points. No TV, Coffee Machine either.
The number of bright screens on random "smart" controls that I'm trying very hard to hide before sleeping are too much.
And you will because "entrepreneurial" chains like Hyatt will lower their prices thanks to the additional revenue they get from this and other unexpected charges in order to attract more customers.
20 years ago, when I first started working, Wipro and HCL Tech had been talking about making the outsourcing model into "factory-like assembly lines." This fizzled out very quickly back then, but I guess it is now coming to fruition :-|
>"77 meetings between 1 and 6am" statistic, and I could see the look of shock in their faces. Did they assume I was just working 9-5 and not making an effort to accommodate other timezones?
I've remote for most part for over 10 years; fully remote since 2019. I've always worked with a big timezone gap. This is not sustainable - I've played the whole "change my sleep cycle" game and it just does not work either in terms of health or time with family.
Most of the time it is worth it to push back and get meetings moved. If someone is being consistently unreasonable, then escalating to the next level may be the answer.
>now Zoho all collapsed because of questions around market viability.
When did Zoho collapse? It is privately held and seems to be worth over $10B [1]
I find Vembu being quite annoying these days with all his statements and comments, but all his companies (Zoho has many, like ManageEngine) are doing well.
Deciding that one new business is not viable is not a collapse.
Left Facebook in 2015. Other than missing the death announcement of an old friend, I haven't really been bothered. HN & curated Reddit subs (basically Goretzky's security sub list) are more than I need to keep up with things.
I do have an Instagram account, and use that to follow the Slackwyrm comic (and ignore people asking me to give them my "desirable" id.)
I did try Blind, but quickly gave up on that mess of an app. 1 day of using it and it just was rage bait after rage bait. Maybe next time I'm job hunting - a friend stated that it was very useful for her negotiations.
Most of my WA group chats are archived & no notifications - no pressure to read them immediately. Left every group chat except close friends and family anyway.
Yes - I haven't used ChatGPT so far. I initially tried to not read what the Google AI summarized, since I did not trust it, but these days, if I know enough about the subject to identify errors, I do read the summaries.
