Nope, I'm in Texas and not Arizona. We've already got two wafer plants here. The largest projects are expansions on those, so these companies are pretty familiar with the available workforce at this point.
I live in a relatively small city that has a 30B phased wafer fab project under way, and an another separate 5B wafer fab project underway, and plans for at least one more in the next couple years.
Anecdotal, of course, but there's some real things being built for sure.
For the folks for whom this is true (and I totally get it. This was me not even that long ago, so no judgments), a $6000 down payment / start fee / whatever is nearly unattainable.
Wow. To get the advertised lowest monthly fee for a model Y (Still $690/month!) you have to pay a $500 security deposit and a whopping $7900 “start fee”
While the deposit is refundable, the start fee doesn’t appear to be. So in 1yr, your total outlay is $16,680 for a $48,600 car. That’s essentially a 3 year payoff + 500 for deposits, and you don’t end up with a car after.
It’s not immediately clear what the advantage is here, I guess unless you can’t qualify for a regular car loan. But the equity cost here is very high.
They claim a loan on this car at 4.25% would cost 1900/mo, but it’s more like 1300. And Tesla financing is as low as 2.9%, which is 1277/mo if you put 4500 down. Those go to 1203/mo and 1178/mo respectively if you put down 7900.
I dunno. Nothing about this seems like a particularly good deal or good for it’s users. They don’t get the tax credits, they don’t get the equity, they just get a more economical rental. It doesn’t even look like there’s a purchase option in the end like a regular lease.
Maybe I’m being cynical here, and I will admit I have never quite understood the appeal of leasing anyway, but this concept just totally escapes me, and the numbers don’t make a good deal of sense to me either.
> There has been a ton of "we graduated into the worst job market ever!" propaganda pointed at millennials who have internalized it. It isn't true unless you were in finance or real estate.
It was true for a lot of us who weren’t in tech at the time. I graduated in December 2008. I was unemployed for a year, eventually finding a job as a bank teller. I applied for literally hundreds of jobs from waiting tables to retail to grant writing to substitute teaching.
I was either “too qualified” because I had a degree or I was “too inexperienced” because a lot of folks who had recently retired were going back to work because they just became upside down on their house.
When you’re freshly graduated and broke, a year is a long time. Worst ever of all time? Nah. But it was pretty traumatizing.
The Dell U4021QW is probably the best monitor I've ever used. I, too, got sad with 1440 vertical pixels on previous ultrawides, so I was pretty excited when they announced this one. 5120 x 2160 is really a dream. It's limited to 60hz, which bothers some folks, but I haven't noticed. I don't game or anything on it, though.
Hey there. I'm responsible for support here at Timescale. akulkarni asked me to take a look at this.
To be fair, I don't have a good answer on why the input box does require the resource group name to be lowercase, but I ran through the steps end-to-end, and as akulkarni said, the names are case agnostic on the Azure side, so you'd just need to input the resource group name lower case to create it successfully.
Sincerely, thank you for the feedback, as this is how we learn and improve. If you give this a shot and run into any trouble, please do let us know, and we'd be happy to help troubleshoot.
Unfortunately, the list doesn't seem to be compatible with piHole (at least >5.0), and in searching around there's some beef between pi-hole folks and the oisd maintainer. I won't perpetuate it by posting links, but it's sad to see for sure.
I have had these jump outside of my house. I realize how crazy it sounds, but I had a pair (they were not encrypted - this was long ago, and I don't even know if encrypted ones existed) and my neighbor had a pair. I would, very occasionally, end up getting DHCP answered by the router in their network.
It took forever to figure out what was causing this, and I eventually figured it out by doing a (very slow) IP scan of every device on the network I was connecting to and finding a machine named with their first and last name. Unplugged the thing, and the problem went away forever.
If it hadn't happened to me, it's something I would have thought impossible!
I don't know why this was downvoted. You see what you see. Maybe my experience with electron is tainted :D
I don't have any measurements, and I'm not really going to take any. It's just always felt slow. So I'll admit I should've perhaps been less prescriptive.
Software jobs, especially at the kinds of FAANG companies largely being discussed here, are quite a stretch for the term "wageslave."
Entrepreneurship isn't for everyone, even those who've tried it before.
