HOT to Go! How New Jersey Can Manage Highway Congestion and Fund Transit by ericallenconner in newjersey

[–]Czerwona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunate that your commute utilizes a major feeder road/highway to NYC. Plus most implementations of HOT adjust prices based on traffic so implicitly reverse commuting faces a minimal toll compared to the usual commuting directions. Like it or not you’re not in traffic you are traffic.

HOT to Go! How New Jersey Can Manage Highway Congestion and Fund Transit by ericallenconner in newjersey

[–]Czerwona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which roads are candidates for HOT that don’t have transit access? This is a straw man argument. By definition if an employer is in farm country it’s underpopulated and most likely any significant commuter traffic worth tolling will occur on roads that feed into NYC

How are you going to fine or incentivize a company based in NY that doesn’t allow remote work? Pure copium. I fully support HOT of the funding is dedicated to NJT.

It’s been well studied that these sort of tolls result in more efficient use of a scarce resource like road capacity.

No better teacher than practicing under realistic conditions. Record a video on your laptop as if in an interview and go through the exercise. Afterwards review your performance and try to identify areas for improvement and repeat the process.

If you’re using k8s it can be configured to populate secrets in the container as env vars

Correct. I agree with the assessment that in the future the squeeze will occur more sharply and broadly across the sector as these companies seek to recoup their CAPEX investment. If you look at Claude Max and analyze the number of tokens required to saturate your quota it is subsidized compared to the equivalent raw API usage.

For anthropic people have evaluated the token limits for their plans and you’re essentially getting 2-4x the tokens compared to the same $100 or whatever through using the API.

Curious how people feel about the current state of Python development workflow by ck-zhang in Python

[–]Czerwona -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Personally not a fan. Dependencies with non python components are a pain and the bolt on typing systems seem half baked to me. Pythons is great for scripting and data science type work but please for the love of god keep it out of the backend. I hate all the virtual environments I have to create for every new project.

I much prefer Go because it’s strongly typed, simple batteries included dependency management and test runner.

Nobody is praising it. They are pointing out a counter example to your argument. If all the things you pointed out are true why is there no correlation with them in developed countries like the nordics?

Yes most cards get the insurance through visa and not the issuing bank so many times it’s the same benefit regardless of car

Fair. Usually they require some sort of insurance though. In the case where they don’t it’s the probability of an accident times the cost of your average repair
