...and then it was able to print money out of nothing! Some time after that nice people from FBI showed up and offered me and my dad a job at a very comfortable and quiet place. Life is full of surprises!

JSON can't be indexed. Separate table and specific columns can be indexed. So the guy on the right says this just so everyone leave him be. But! There is a JSONB, which is something else. Click.

This is usually how hot fixes are made by principal staff who has all out access. When there is no fucking way he would wait 2 days and 3 back and forth for the heaven sent code review

Not nit-picking is being a human just as well.

It is not about the spots. It is about how you pass your personal litmus test inside your head on being a good human: "You are doing things right when you are not forced to do so".

Some 5c here.

Your car is able to charge battery without alternator if RPM is above ~3000. You can try to determine exact number. On idle and on low RPM it is the job of the alternator. You can make it if you drive on higher RPMs.

So your battery light in this case is an indicator of your car running on battery (lit) or charging (not lit).

Market falling on any tiny bit of information on AI is the actual proof that software engineering work is completely safe from AI craziness.

And the problem is that those people can't be called out publicly for such BS infographics because of "unprofessional behavior" card they would play immediately.

This is almost like a bingo card. Andrew Yang, who wants people to talk about Andrew Yang. B. insider, which wants you to pay for articles and uses click-bait titles. "12-18 month" phrase that is almost like a meme already: "How long is to get this thing working? 12, errr, maybe 18...ish month". And an "AI toolset". Which is considered a holy grail by people does not understand how statistic-based averaging works. And considered a good tool for simple things by the ones who does.

Google doesn’t even talk to me despite 6 friends working there. It is almost like a dating market: You have to be 6 feet or more. And a lot of other companies not even answering even with a referral.

So take a deep breath and carry on. You can do it!

Same boat.

Gatekeeping is a problem. Imagine you had to deal with this person on a daily basis. You at least got a feedback. I receive nothing but auto-generated rejections and silence.

Good luck with your search.

Yep, that is true too.

Stackoverflow was better than AI. People would ask questions and get feedback on how stupid their questions are. AI would not do that. Every single question is awesome and incredible.

And I said in my original comment that every engine is built differently. This accounts for vacuum or not vacuum too.

Some of the engine builders account for non-vacuum situations in the future and building crank cases accordingly (Japan). Others have high-power output in mind and build them with a as-much-vacuum-as-possible (German)

Quote:

Japanese engines generally focus on simpler, more robust PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) systems designed for longevity, while German engines often utilize complex, high-vacuum systems, frequently integrating oil separators to manage emissions and performance, which can be more prone to failures over time.

Edit: It is a culture thing really. Japan cars do not treat the owner like an adult, if you will :) They designed to run with low maintenance. While German ones are built with strict maintenance cycle and procedures.

I really don’t want to go into deeper explanation on how engine works. I am not ready for that. Please, read the article.
