    That's why I internally push to use Bedrock. If AWS flakes or bans the company account I've got bigger problems. Putting more eggs in the same basket is a counterintuitive solution…

    I have 3 modes of redditing in order of importance/frequency: 1. custom fp with many defaults removed, 2. r/all, 3. rarely, but sometimes default fp. I find that it works. r/all is…

    That's all well and good when it was subs like FPH that were easily ignored. The thing that threatened to chase me off of reddit was the_donald. Not because I was "offended"(the ne…

    I'm in the middle of the spectrum myself. I'm happy to say hi, shake hands, but I need my alone time. I have plenty of friends and they all get it. I could disappear off the map an…

    I thrive in the small group office. You get the flow of ideas that are trying to be achieved with the open plan, but without as much of the noise. And it's easier to call out one o…

    From my personal experience: It's the first thing off the island when my schedule gets pinched. I can't cut back on work, don't want to cut out family or rec time. The MOOC suffers…

    In my personal experience there's no way to truly blunt the sting of failure. If I go in optimistic and fail unexpectedly or pessimistically and fail as expected the pain is the sa…

    I'd say that's a much more fair way to go about it. If you're going to ask someone to do work for you, that should be a paying gig, and it should be a task worth doing. If you're l…

    This teacher is as middle America as it comes. I actually went to that school although I had a different teacher for history unfortunately. Some of this is a personality conflict a…
