I do exactly the same thing

What can you do in PyCharm that you cannot do in VS Code? I recently switched from PyCharm to VS Code to maintain a project with 250k LoC in Python (Django) and VS Code has been like a breath of fresh air. While you may need to install some plugins to get it "just right", it's more extensible. PyCharm is more "batteries included", and maybe that's the rub here.

I actively work with and set up ~100 domains in SendGrid, and Yahoo and AOL are still, have have been, THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE since I started working at this job 8 years ago. It's always been a black hole into any type of support. I always get the same answer back... "If you don't want to be seen as a spam bot, don't act like one".... OK, I'll just tell my client they can't send their 20k emails when they want (with a non insignificant going to Yahoo/AOL still). Honestly I don't know what else we can do better. We don't send newsletters and such, we only send transnational emails.

You realize your Model 3 has a mechanical lever to open the doors if electronics fail? ( I own a Model 3 too )

Modern day water systems will only work for a while, until the water towers run out of backup systems. Still need electricity to pump water up for gravity to pressurize/distribute it.

You assume the person was able to attempt to escape. It said they survived the crash, but they could have been incapacitated.

I agree, the handles on the Model S are a little too over engineered, but what prevented the first responder from breaking a window? How is this different than the doors just being locked? I own a Model 3, and the lever handles still wouldn't have opened when the car is locked.

I agree with the sentiment, but it's a crowded market that if there was an easy, elegant solution that met everyone's needs we'd already have some leaders out there. Maybe we already do. My person preference is Notion at the moment.

It's all about culture. Try to be the agent of change, or change your expectation on what you can achieve in your current role.

This is completely unacceptable. I work for a small company of 9, with 3 programmers (me being one). On vacation we all unplug to the fullest extent. It's all about setting expectations, having redundancy and backups. In fact, the boss hired me so that he could do exactly this, unplug and leave the country to have a solid vacation. I tend to either unplug all the way, or make it impossible to contact me by either being somewhere remote. I haven't come back to a burning fire yet.

I agree, a real baking steel works very well for this. I have one I use as a griddle, and sometimes in the oven.

The Kettle Pizza came with a much thinner version of steel, that was still heavy as hell. The radiant effect of the kettle version wasn't that great. And mine rusted through in less than one season, and it lived inside my kettle.

didn't warp, but the enamel paint started flaking off the outside and rusted through in certain spots where the flames would have been the hottest. My kettle is 10 years old though.

Really just brought the pizza off the stone so that the bottom wouldn't burn, and brought it close to the top without touching to get enough radiant "broiling" effect.

The "baking steel" required too much maintenance, and rusted to pieces and started dropping rust flakes into my food. The radiant heat effect was very small, and I nearly always burned the bottom of my crusts before the top was charred, even when doming the food.

The sheer amount of fuel you have to put in to get up to temp was absurd too. Having a 900 degree raging fire in my weber kettle sure made me nervous, even for hours after I was done making pizzas.
