You should try to get a job in Azure, you’d feel right at home!

.net462 baby!

More like 4.6.2

Very little, as in fingers in hand, little in Azure

Meanwhile, I recently proposed doing the work of updating the runtime versions from .netframework over to even .net5+ to save $millions/quarter.

I ran benchmarks, showing 2-10x+ improvements.

Got told, “lol no, this service is unlike Bing”. For context, Bing has amazing blogs on this*.

This, btw is inside networking for Azure…

Not sure at what point I should stop caring. Could easily improve operating expenses to the tune of hundreds/billions per year if they applied this across Azure.

$1 Billion USD at current prices. Having said that in the current SWIFT or any other legacy payment rail, there is no finality in transactions until 30+ days.

Not only that, is that you would have the Eye of Sauron quickly looking at you for moving such quantities especially if it were a private individual or some smaller group that isn't all registered with the powers that be.

One could essentially sign up to be a librarian (bit of an exaggeration but there are active duty members who work at libraries). Same goes for Coast Guard which doesn’t get deployed in the traditional sense and are more like water police.

Ceteribus paribus, the military provides stable job, income, and a generous scholarship.

The scholarship is roughly $70-$100k depending on school and a monthly housing stipend. For SF area, that stipend is $4.2k/month
