Eufy C120 is $35 and you can put an SD card in it for continuous recording and no cloud subscription required. Can watch the camera and playback any time using the app, no cost.

Despite the fact that this is a claim with no basis in reality, what you are saying is that people who don't understand the core concepts the language is built on write bad code...Isn't that true for every language?

Do you mean overloaded methods? You can "override" methods in Go in the sense that if you have an embedded struct you can provide your own implementation in your struct to use instead

yea, Upwork said they can't disclose to me what action(s) they took "due to account privacy"

You mean...the account privacy of someone pretending to be me?

Yea that's pretty much what I did...I added a note to my "headline" on LinkedIn saying if you found me on Upwork, it's not actually me

According to Upwork support when I spoke to them

> Please know that as soon as the freelancer applies or is offered a contract, we would run an identity verification process which would have them submit a Government-issued ID and have a quick video chat or send us a selfie to prove their identity.

However, this is way too late in the process for my liking...and who knows how strict they actually are?

According to Upwork support, they do something like this before a contract is actually signed. But in my opinion that's way too late in the process - someone impersonating me could completely ruin my reputation before any contract is handed out

I've had nothing but negative experiences debugging elixir honestly. In a large project, trying to step debug is just way too slow

what elixir tooling are you using? I absolutely deplore writing elixir because I just find the tooling atrocious
