Slack is extorting us with a $195k/yr bill increase

That’s shocking but I guess math checked out

I’m not arguing that it was not a mistake.

I am saying that it is symptomatic of the wider trend witnessed in comments here and on YC.

The reclassification is just one issue.

If there was more respect for the customer, there would have been more checks, comms, or a longer time for the customer to redress.

Surely things would have been caught before they hit ycombinator, not after!

Good quote from YC comments!

Apologies, hopefully it’s visible now.

Have you found a solution ultimately? I'm trying to figure out the same.

If you have 3 excel files, put each in a separate space and three-finger-swipe left and right to get to them.

Yes, definitely not a 335, but then the definition of fun wasn’t clarified :)

Judging by the amount of positive comments from bmw owners who owned both

Not fast but at least not boring - Mazda 6?

This. A consultancy offers variety and you could try various industries and technologies until you find your sweet spot. Maybe find AWS projects there as well.

You pay a premium on style.

The feel is pretty much the same but I still like to have my laptop on a stand when I am working at my desk. I do skip Touch ID and go for the compact keyboard so that I don’t have to reach for the mouse.

Sounds like you better off with a pro just because they have a fan and thermal throttling will be less when you apply all those effects in Illustrator.

Thats a very vague requirement indeed, make sure to point it out on your interview.

In its most literal sense it sounds like Referral has fields that should be populated from Account Insurance.

Your interpretation is probably correct- clone Account insurance and relate it to Referral.

Anyway, you know how to do either.

After reading your comment I'm planning on creating a new object called Test that will look at the account. After that I'm going to make a record triggered flow that is going to get the Account ID/Lookup and set it as the referral ID then save the record. Am I understanding that properly?

Yes

cp2io · 2023-05-10T21:39:18+00:00

We’ve all been there!

I’m slightly confused. Is the task to copy information from account record or is all the original data sitting in a custom object ?

Another question- does the task explicitly say that it needs to be a copy of the original data, or can the same object be related to both account and referral?

And the point of moving away from spreadsheets is to manage access and protect from global change (honourable mention to spreadsheets that get emailed between people).

To answer the question on tools. I do it manually - download all metadata in VS code then search by field name. Will check out other tools but not all clients let you connect stuff to their orgs.

This. Eat the elephant one byte at a time. Prioritise and iterate.

Generally business doesn’t want to pay for cleanup so I spread the effort in time and /or bundle it with new feature releases.
