Generally not for Masters' programs though, which is the most popular and easiest way to get a temporary study visa. Then they pay out of state tuition rates.

JSON - er JSON-based document storage - documents with unique identifiers. and the ability to define and set schemas for the JSON, and ... we're back to a relational database

there's a workaholic / achievement / perfectionist satisfaction aspect at play - hustle to make yourself into an idealized version of self. Since achieving this is difficult, gradual, and ultimately impossible, it becomes a perpetual distraction.

Wow pretty amazing. This seems to point very clearly to a muscle tension issue. The piercing into some area on your head may have helped some chronic tension to release, stopping the migraines.

I suppose two case studies worth exploring are:

Consumer Reports (subscription magazine recurring revenue) NY times Wirecutter (a potential add on service to boost apparent value for subscribers)

Your note on affiliate marketing is what makes your first statement potentially unachievable. How does a consumer "know" that a product is significantly better to the point of "worth paying for"? There's always another free (potentially ad supported) affiliate marketer (or 5) around the corner. (Also considering the "worst" version of this "product" is an unskippable ad").

I don't know the solution

Wasn't the NY times founded way before the microchip?

people can find multiple ways to get to the same product. once your way starts charging they will find another way.

FWIW There is a built-in cache system for r markdown documents. I'm not up to speed on their exact implementation but I have found it useful.

Because they are generally incredibly computationally expensive operations that can take hours/days to complete (?more)

The degree of reduction is nice considering the countless times in the past where I wrote my own file cache logic using if/else statements, temporary files, pickle, and bespoke sqlite databases.

Why give myself the headache of maintaining so much extra code when someone already wrote it.

Which is a valid business model.

But doesn't make sense when you've personally purchased the machine to do the printing. At this point you should be your own print shop.

I use LLMs to double check/write python pandas code so I don't need to use Libreoffice/spreadsheet software.

But you can "add humor" to your communication with light joking - often with a self-depreciative take

"I'll get back to you assuming I remember where my head is tonight!"

Does the API offer "fixed" models that don't change? I was under the impression they did.
