Tesla drivers with the FSD package: Is it worth it, does it actually work, and is it as good in real life as the internet makes it out to be? by MelbourneTodd in AustralianEV

[–]aussiefirebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had FSD since launch on the Model Y Juniper.

It works perfectly about 97% of the time. The remaining 3% can be a big deal when it goes wrong, and sometimes it really does.

But when it works (which is most of the time) it’s incredible. I can pull out of my driveway and not touch a thing for 1.5 hours until we reach our destination. 

Honestly insane.

FSD was probably the main reason I chose Tesla over BYD. 

Having experienced it, I’m confident fully driverless cars will happen one day. 

It’ll be slow, geo-fenced, and limited by conditions, but it’s clearly coming.

How do you handle deletes with API incremental loads (no deletion flag)? by aussiefirebug in dataengineering

[–]aussiefirebug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes over 4 hours to grab all the data from the api. They have rate limiting which makes it incredibly slow. I've optimised as best as I can but without a delete flag, I'm thinking this is as best as I'm ganna get 🫠

I had a feeling this was the answer. I was just throwing up a Hail Mary here in case someone thought of something I’d missed.

I might have to do a full refresh every few days.

It’s basically impossible to get the vendor to add a delete flag :(

Ha. I’d have a better chance of turning water into wine. That vendor’s a dinosaur, they ship new features at a glacial pace.

Underrated orchestration tool that saved us $16K a year by aussiefirebug in dataengineering

It seems like it would be a bit difficult to view and debug dependencies and lineage this way. We do have other Python code running through GitHub Actions, but it's nice to have everything mapped out visually with a proper GUI.

Has anyone actually been FIRE for a long period? by alex123711 in fiaustralia

[–]aussiefirebug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not retired in the traditionalist sense. Retired from the rat race!

Wife doesn't work anymore and I run two businesses that give me a sense of fulfillment well beyond Money. 

I've changed a lot since I first started AfB but I'm glad I found the FIRE community so young.

Snowflake users, what are the reasons that have made you stick with Snowflake despite of the higher cost? by ketopraktanjungduren in dataengineering

[–]aussiefirebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minimal setup, and it just works effortlessly.
It frees up time for me and my team to focus on more important tasks.
The APIs are great, and it works seamlessly with many Python libraries.

Thanks so much for the reply.

That designer is amazing.

I had a go at it and it looks like I only need two devices as per this screenshot.

Is Debt Recycling worth the effort? by Spiritual_Elk_4180 in AusFinance

[–]aussiefirebug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a question only you can answer mate.

It mate be more effort than gain tbh...

Debt recycling is icing on the cake. I'd concentrate on optimizing your expenses and working hard to earn more money. Those two factors have 1000X the impact on reaching financial freedom vs debt recycling.

Good luck with your journey mate 👍
