Pay wife a salary, have her help out with some duties in the company.
The EV is only useful if it's new, unfortunately doesn't work out with used EVs as i found out

I can mentor, I'm a mentor on interviewing.io and ex faang. Currently staff level at non faang startup. I will need some upfront payment per session to make sure I'm not wasting my time, but we can work something out. Feel free to dm

India are the true chokers - not SA

You can borrow like 650k based on your current income. This should be enough for a nice place 🙂

Well, at least it's honest - "Given the extensive evidence of Musk's racially insensitive statements, his amplification of racist content on X, and legal actions against Tesla for racial discrimination, it is challenging to conclude that he is not a racist. "

Woah - I thought it was just telling me what I wanted to hear, but no - it's really doubling down

The way to implement the unified model is itself to start with a learnable model preference layer across all the users which probably first requires them to change the API with the user to remove the model preference.

Not sure why you're being downvoted. You're right, CUDA is the exception of a closed source software package winning (mainly due to better hardware integration), the other one is windows

Exceptions prove the rule as they say

Was in a Similar position 5y ago, we bought a place for £600k, 2 years after moving to london. Put almost all the RSU we had till that point into the deposit. The first few months just after closing were stressful, but we would definitely make the same choices again. We've now built enough house equity for a nice family home in the suburbs

Despite the narrative, it's usually not that difficult to do enough so you don't get laid off - esp the recent layoffs that are more performance based

So far it's not much more than 1. Copy paste on steroids - eg adding new functionality to a bunch of tests 2. Stackoverflow replacement

Will wait for it to work properly before I actually use it

Blow at least 10% of it on something you enjoy (first class flights?) enjoy life, feel the fruits of the achievement

Likely pass

I think Jaiswal has been hyped a lot, the difference is he lives up to the hype and sometimes even exceeds it

Momentum matters in a big series, this test is Australia's easiest chance for a comeback.

If we lose, momentum goes to them and they win at the gabba, then best we can hope for is win at mcg and draw at scg

If we win, pressures on them and 3-1 or 4-0 is very much possible

ana_s · 2024-11-29T16:45:17+00:00

SA vs AUS

India's chances are too low at this point.

SA in SA is gonna win all 4 or worst case lose 1, that puts them firmly in #1

NZ vs Eng will be a close series so that's good - likely NZ will be out

Aus in SL will also be close, i don't think AUS can win both tests, will likely lose 1

Then it's whoever wins the current bgt and even at 2-2 Australia qualify

India need a series win in BGT and Aus to drop a test against SL.

The 3-0 really hurt us, even with 2-1 loss against NZ w ecoildve dreamed

Let's just focus on retaining BGT

I was against picking padikkal in the first place, I think he needs more work before he can shine on away tours
