I tried to close my account, and got the response. But they closed it when I failed to verify it.

A single, non-discounted, one-way train ride between the two biggest cities, Amsterdam and Rotterdam, costs €20,20.

The promotional price of this subscription is only a few euros more expensive than the existing unlimited subscription for weekend train travel (i.e. 6:30 PM Friday to 4:00 AM Monday), which costs €39,50. You can pay €4 extra for a 40% discount the rest of the off-peak hours.

With that discount, my commute (Haarlem <=> Amsterdam) costs €3,30 each way. A single trip to work a month makes the promotional subscription better value.

Your example produces very distinguishable results. e.g. if Array.first finds a nil value it returns Optional<Type?>.some(.none), and if it doesn't find any value it returns Optional<Type?>.none

The two are not equal, and only the second one evaluates to true when compared to a naked nil.

If this is a concern, you could use a VM without network access to make the backup

I assume they mean the profits in the past couple years are dwarfed by the losses that came before. Looking at the company's entire history, instead of a single FY.

> They expire in 24 hours

8 hours of work, 8 hours of sleep and 2 hours of regular daily tasks. That leaves 6 usable hours.

> What would you use them for?

Nothing, probably let them expire.

> How would you maximize the return from the AI credits?

Given the time constraints, the expected result is nil with some stress as a bonus. By doing nothing, I achieve a local maximum of nil with no stress.

> Would you use them for charitable uses?

This sounds interesting. Is there any charitable organization that could benefit from receiving some credits that need to be used ASAP?
