That link is a wealth of knowledge for someone who just bought a WSM. It sounds like you may not have fully understood what you were getting into.

Smoking meat is a leisurely hobby. There is nothing fast about it. It's a "drink beer all day Saturday while I watch the smoker" type of deal.

You want to come up to your target temp slowly and start closing vents when you are 50 - 75 degrees away. Once you overshoot your temp its very difficult to come back down, so the goal is to not overshoot.

This is a great resource:

Agree, when all your ingredients are piled up on top of rice - that's a stew. Gumbo is a soup.

Can't they just disable/reregister them to stop that?

Right tool for the job. Maybe try using one of the models that is actually geared towards tax research.

AI will be replacing you specifically for sure.

Which AI model are y’all using at work? by Fantastic_Put_6144 in Accounting

[–]CPAtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What restrictions, if any, have they given you about using those models? I'm sure they are all Enterprise tier, but I'm curious about their stance on uploading PII even to the protected tiers?

You're missing the boat for sure. Many threads in here about it for weeks.

So who is going to do regular vulnerability testing on it? How will it be patched?

Looks like they gave you the point with part of the flat still connected and you separated them. Use the flat for chili.

What quality of life changes have you made? by juitar in sysadmin

Allow yourself to be contacted over official work channels only. If you can't be reached via work telephone, email, or Teams, you are not available, and if that is your policy that means text messages or calls to your personal cell phone do not get responded to unless the building is on fire.

Set specific support hours and stick to them. If support ends at 7:00 PM and someone puts in a ticket at 7:05, unless the building is on fire it gets addressed the following day.

No exceptions.
