    it's common, they reserve an amount, and then update towards the final payment. These are not payments as such, and almost always take 48 hours to clear. Same at hotel rooms usuall…

    wait, people can just do that? How does that even work? Does Visa not supposedly protect both the seller and the buyer? In Western Europe, a chargeback is not that unheard of, but …

    Yaah I feel the same way. Gemini is great at and Django and AI backends, OpenAI better at making something visually pleasing in React and Claude for everything else or across front…

    yeah I thought that was the USP of Legora and Harvey, so this is not the same thing at all, just surfing the brand recognition

    the M line of macbook pro's are beautiful, well crafted, long lasting machines. MacOS might not be your preferred way of working, and you might prefer cheaper options or USB-A port…

    weird how its 0 to 15, and no in between. I went in hoping to set it to 5 minutes. I don't see that as a problem. However, suddenly losing 15 minutes, yeah that's an issue

    thank you, I had this debate at work so many times. Sure it's not a security measure as such, but it's still a worthwile component to the overall defense system.

    also, let's not conflate easy to repair with cheap to repair. The macbook is quite easy to repair, it's just insanely expensive because they made the choice that, for user experien…

    you need a ton of third party tools to make it behave like Windows, that's what you mean. I'm perfectly happy with my "vanilla" macbook. Runs Baldurs Gate 3 and my final fantasy ps…

    6k would be a no-brainer. In our office, we'd definitely need the enterprise version for compliance reasons, not because of the features. That's about 14/user/month. At a workforce…

    yeah I don't understand how this isn't blatant market abuse through their monopoly position Regulators should be all over it. EU has tried, but unsuccesfully, since it was lawyers …

    When you get to partner level, you also get profit sharing on top of you salary. Partners get 300-400k and senior partners get closer to 600-800

    Benefit of mcp is that it exists and kinda works, and a lot of tools are available on it. I guess it's all about adoption. But inherently yeah it's a discovery service thingy. Goog…
