Hi,
thanks for your response. I'd love to know if our problem is technical or not, as either we're misunderstanding the true-up licensing model or the user limit counting is faulty.

We're coming from a 30 Users License last year, with two true-up on-top of that.

Now we're down to 17 active users, so after our TAMs reply we bought a License with 19 Users. When trying to add the License we're getting an error that in the Last year 30 users have been active so we need to renew for this amount...

Is this a bug?

In some cases, it is more important to distill vs. over-communicate. Senior leaders are reliant on you to sweat the details. Finding out what is important to them can be an art form--or a simple conversation sometimes.
I checked out some of the brands you mentioned, and holy crap they're expensive. Outlier has 3 t-shirts on offer for $300, shirts from most of those brands average $150, Acronym are selling jackets for $1k+....

I'm expecting a reply on the line of "quality comes at a cost" but I've got shirts over a decade old that have no visible signs of wear and cost a tenth of what these cost.
> We need to know all the details, including the weave?

You don't. In fact I'd argue that having access to the details makes you more likely to both choose the wrong garment and rationalize that wrong choice.

> For someone that sweats a lot in hot & humid climates, why does one white cotton shirt show the sweat, and another doesn't?

Branch one of this answer includes all kinds of details about thread count, thread length, thread quality, and all kinds of other details for you to get lost in.

Branch two: don't wear cotton in hot & humid climates.

> Why do I feel cooler with a thicker cotton shirt than a thinner one?

Branch one includes all kinds of wonderful details about the way in which cotton wicks moisture but does a poor job of evaporating that same moisture. (Your thin cotton shirt sucks up your perspiration to arrive at the "moisture traffic jam" much sooner than your thicker one.)

Branch two: don't wear cotton in hot & humid climates. Synthetic, bamboo, and even light merino tee shirts will all perform so much better that the difference between thin and thick cotton will become thermal noise by comparison (pun!).

Seriously, don't learn the details. I can't tell you how many times I've had pointless conversations about the differences between various proprietary waterproof breathable membranes to people who are using the rain jacket exclusively in the Southeastern U.S. (Hint: none of them will do a decent job of being breathable there. So just pick one, unzip the vents under the arms and get on with your day.)

The friction I'm describing is what inevitably occurs when workers start openly discussing pay and realise that some among them are paid much more than others. I've seen it happen multiple times in different workplaces. Some longer-term employees discover that more junior, less experienced employees are being paid maybe 30% more and pretty much mentally check out instantly. They become instantly absolutely demoralised and will end up on a spiral downwards which either ends with them resigning or being given a massive pay-raise.
I've heard someone describe the phenomena as 'contractor rot', when a full-time employee discovers how much more contractors earn.
Learning to effectively communicate with others is the single most important skill you can learn. It will help you improve your relationships with others, clearly communicate your own ideas, and address areas for improvement in ideas and others in a way that is constructive. There's been quite a few great books on this thread already. Here's some I haven't seen.

* The Ultimate Sales Machine - Chet Holmes - good even if you're not in sales

* The Effective Executive - Peter Drucker - Great book overall

* The Phoenix Project - good for understanding project flows and silos.

* Thinking in Systems - good for how to set up processes so that even if you step away the job still gets done. Essential for getting promoted, no one can promote you if you're impossible to replace.

I find that anyone who isn't a PhD (or could easily have been if they hadn't gone into industry) might as well be a paper shell. I can put on a mask of civility and charm when needed, but all I really want is to talk to deeply self-aware people struggling with the boundaries of human knowledge.

It's like you try to peel back a single layer of why people believe what they believe and there's nothing there. No reflection, no relevant context, no mirror provided by an intimate knowledge of history or literature ... just nothing.

Nearly every time I work up the motivation to try to really get to know someone who I think I may have judged too quickly I find religiosity, passive consumerism, an unexamined life, something so distasteful that it takes ages before I can do it again.

Dijkstra's last published thoughts on the merits of infix notation for associative operators come to mind[1]: "It made me realize why I like it so much for associative operators: it allows us to write p+q+r without being forced to choose between (p+q)+r and p+(q+r); in prefix notation, the choice between ++pqr and +p+qr would have been unavoidable."

This show the obvious merit of parenthesis for prefix notation, since then one can write (+ p q r). In essence, the + operator distributes over the operands.

I haven't formed an opinion on this yet. I love cats and my gut is sympathetic to anti-declawing viewpoints as I would never declaw a cat myself, but I'm seeing a lot of anti-declawing rhetoric here that makes very little sense if you look at it logically in contrast with neutering.

If you're an opponent of declawing, are you also an opponent of neutering? If not, can you present an argument against declawing that isn't also a straightforward argument against neutering?

>Or make that “hey!!!!!” Exclamation points, unlike the period, have so far escaped obsolescence in customarily punctuation-free online interaction; if anything, they’ve been cheapened by overuse,

That's a point I personally disagree with. My impression is that exclamation points typically serve as indicators of an older, rather than younger author, especially if they're included in a joke. If someone sends you a meme or copypasta that ends in an exclamation point it's almost always boomer humor. "Because Jill's real name is Randy!" etc.

One source for the rates paid is: https://www.inquirer.com/news/uber-lyft-rideshare-drivers-ph...

The N.Y. Times published more detailed data last year iirc.

I used the GSA expense schedule for the standard mileage rate and various online sources (rural mail carrier reimbursement ($0.70), livery and van per mile estimates) to estimate the actual cost.

Better data exists on the expense side, but I didn’t go down that path due to time constraints.
Yes and this isn't your fault, no matter how much employers want you to feel. It's entirely up to a company how much they offer employees. Think about this, they could at any moment increase the pay off every employee without as single complaint from employees. They make a conscious choice to not increase the pay of more senior employees intentionally because they know the employees won't leave to get more money. You shouldn't feel bad because of choices the company makes. The friction isn't your fault or your concern. As I stated before companies tell you not to share because it benefits them, not you. No one feels bad when someone leaves the company for more money elsewhere, there are even companies that ask their employees to take a cut and they do and everyone feels okay with it because you're all in it together. The only time this friction occurs is when a company chooses to bring someone in for money they choose not to offer to another employee. You stated yourself that you became demoralized before sharing, in fact it was the company that brought it on. The company is trying to make you feel bad for sticking up for yourself in a contract negotiation, don't let them do that to you. You're worth more than that, both as a person and as an employee. The contractor makes other sacrifices including benefits and stability as part of their wages. If the company can't explain that it's on them, not you.

Well, bear in mind that partly, it was horrific because I was new to it, and it was very much in at the deep end.

* inconsistently named action creators defined in the same file(sometimes) as the actions

* confusing tests that I still don't understand

* the main focus being on axios requests handled in reducers rather than reducers themselves

* the two main reducers being updateData (which merged in object into the store and saveData which fired off the axios request, and every component had to implement custom logic around using these two. Connects everywhere (which a child comment warns against!)

Don't think anyone working on it had made any one decision badly - just a combination of using a new tech in a slightly non standard setting, deadlines, and a strange backend integration.

Also, I don't think any of it was Redux's fault. That link looks good, thank you, will try it out and see if it is similar to what I came up with on my own for this new project.

Shouldn’t spend literal money. As for why, well I don’t use Podman but Rkt had a similar fork-exec model and it came with loads of benefits, like having containers that integrated well with your init daemon.

Docker has the issue of needing a daemon that runs as another user. Aside from being a security issue it’s just inconvenient and Docker has to go through great lengths to make it all transparent.
Heh. I've found that my odds of breaking a pen are negatively correlated to the price of the pen. I switched to using pigma microns at the beginning of the year. Just starting on my 3rd pen.

The problem is that evolution up to human stage requires 1B years. Let's break this 1B years in thousand 1M year blocks. Assume that probability that all life terminates at each 1M year block is 1% due to events like super volcanos, astroid hits, solar flairs, ice ages, magnetic pole reversals etc. This leaves chance of only 0.004% that life will continue to exist after 1B years on a planet that was already viable. If probability of life serviving after each 1M year block was 90% instead of 99% then completing full 1B year would be astonishingly small 10^-44%. Current estimate in milyway galaxy is 20 billion Earth-like planets. However if probability for completing full evolution cycle was so small than intelligent human-like life indeed would be extra-ordinarily rare.

Another thing to think about: Any sufficiently advanced life form would eventually do long term space travel and face with the fact that life is super rare. This will lead to them seeding life with their own genetic material to other planets. This will eventually lead to millions of planets full of life in span of few million years. However this hasn't appeared to have happened indicating that we might be the one who do this.
+1 for Zebra Sarasa. (I was excited to see it mentioned as well.) I'm a fan of them (for 15+ years) since someone I knew who owned an office supply store introduced them to me. They look a lot like G2's but if you look closely at a G2 you see a brown smear of color at the top of the refill which Sarasa doesn't have.

However, I cross out things often (to do lists), and sometimes draw a line across the page (as a divider), and if you do that, you will get a big blog of ink on the next letter you write. Another issue I've had is that some batches I've gotten were unreliable.

I recently got into fountain pens (which I thought this article would mention; figuring out refills was confusing for me at first). I have a cheap one (as far as fountain pens go, $18 but it's refillable (Sheaffer VFM)) and it's really great: no more blob issues at all.

> More often, however, migraines are likely to be covered by FMLA (in the us) and the person gets time off for a certain amount of days.

Almost always, you will be expected (rightly or wrongly) to use your PTO/sick days first (if you have any). Then FMLA may kick in (up to 12 weeks within a 12 month period), subject to several potential restrictions (e.g. employer company minimum size, employee tenure minimum, etc.) Also, the law states that your employer no longer has to pay you, they just have to keep your position available for you upon your return.

So, maybe that's no so great or useful and it's better for your employer to just deal with the fact that you get periodic migraines.

(Not disagreeing with your points, but wanted to clarify that FMLA is great for some situations but not all). People just need to be more understanding and compassionate.

They definitely shouldn't continue to be in custody for immigration after their legal documents have been provided.
I didn't love Goldeneye in particular, but I was in college for CompSci and had done a little OpenGL.

No, knowing (roughly, from a very 50,000 foot kind of view) how those games were made did NOT diminish my love for them.

If anything, it really enhanced my enjoyment and appreciation for them. Having made my own simple programs I was very appreciative of the gulf between my weekly programming assignments and the massive amounts of technical wizardry and craft that went into something like a polished retail game.

I don't think video games ever really fooled me into thinking they were anything but simulations operating according to some underlying rules.

After all, even if you know nothing about programming, your goal as a player is to figure out those rules in order to beat the CPU and win the game!

But those rules often delighted me anyway, and I always had a hefty dose of willing suspension of disbelief, so even something like a 16-bit RPG could really connect with me emotionally....

Yes, pricing is per single date, initial version was 'per month' but that was too restrictive IMHO. With per day pricing one can order exact historical data that is necessary for the task and nothing more also mental calculation from day to month/year is rather quick.

I'm not sure that this actually contradicts what I said.

I follow the subreddit r/IWantOut. Every day, someone asks about coming to the US, and we tell pretty much all of them "better get a Masters in Engineering first." The fact is, most people who would like to immigrate to the US are not refugees or related to US citizens. For most of them, the bar actually is that high. That we accept a lot of people from categories that not many people fall into, including ones that I would barely count as immigration (eg. "Child of a US citizen"), doesn't have much impact on the general case.

Additionally, I think it's important to consider the practical barriers in the system, not just the text of the laws. From what I've heard, the paperwork and fees involved can cost thousands of dollars, and the regulations are so complex that you need either top-notch English reading skills, or a lawyer.
Everybody in life will have their own goals, own dreams, things that they want to do, the way they want to do. You cannot define it for someone else.
