Yes I agree with this - models today are better than they were a year ago. But not sure if I can "do for $1 what used to cost $25" across the board (meaning two times occurred 5x price reduction). But it's maybe not that simple to compare as there are some simple things also that just were not feasibly possible at all some time ago.

I'm interested in which model prices have went down 5x on multiple occasions? Are you talking about subscription or API/Token pricing?

Have you seen him or a picture of him? Looks about as white as they come to me, putting his religious heritage aside.

Mention a few?

I used to drive for five years (2015-2020) a 2009 naturally aspirated petrol Jaguar XF and it had zero issues except a single vacuum hose leak during my 100 000 kilometers (from 120 000 to 220 000) or so. The original rear upper wishbone arms were replaced and no more than expected normal wear & tear brake part replacements were needed. I still sometimes think that I'd like to have one again because in my opinion it was a quite nice and comfortable ride and turned out to be very good value as a used vehicle!

Maybe I had some kind of exception or are there dramatic differences between models and engines?

I’m not well versed enough on this but wouldn’t it be a problem with custom training that the specific project training codebases probably would likely have a lot of the implemented stuff, relevant for the domain, only once and in one way, compared to how the todays popular large models have been trained maybe with countless different ways to use common libraries for whatever various tasks with whatever Github ripped material fed in?

Seems pretty normal amount from many western countries / EU perspective though. A quite standard 30 days paid time off could go like:

- Christmas to New year off (~3-5 days PTO + public holidays paid)

- Winter holiday in Feb/March (5 days PTO)

- Maybe a week off around Easter or Ascension day (4 days PTO + public holiday paid)

- 3 weeks off in the summer (15 days PTO)

- A long weekend in the autumn (1 day PTO) or a week if you didn't take a week off in the spring

-> 30 days PTO total

So would this make a good vector for black mailing? Also I guess many parents might have a lot of pictures of their small children playing around naked.. at least where I live.

DaVinci Resolve free version should provide enough functionality and powerful features for even most professional work! DaVinci is a product I'll happily promote. I feel that the software somehow flies "too much under the radar": if you don't know where to look for and seek free video editing software, you end up easily in a swamp of terrible freemium software even when DaVinci Resolve is easily available.

Materialized views are also nice for many modern DW applications where you don't live in legacy "once in a hour/day/week" ELT/ETL environment, but more in a real timeish or micro batch world. You can have data marts / reporting tables composed with these materialized views over many kinds of underlying DW models. Just dropping this to promote the Materialized View functionality :)

Quickly this looks like something similar to Azure Logic Apps - you probably know about it too. Why should I use Paragon instead of Logic Apps? Educate me! :)

I dont remember what is the requirement in my part of Europe (maybe there is a EU standard?) for free range chickens, but anyway: many years ago a close family friend wanted to start producing free range eggs on his farm. There was a huuuge area (to meet the requirements) fenced that the chickens were free to use, but still very rarely any chicken walked over 15 meters away from their shelter.

Many of those who probably should know or who give the impression that they know, dont actually know or even want to know how the sausage is made. This can be both a good and a bad thing.

I've made around 50 reservations in last couple of years through them and I really like it for the uniform experience across chains, cities and countries. They've been helpful and I've never run and into actual problems. I also probably ignore their dark patterns subconsciously.. I dont have proper incentives to try other platforms, agoda, trivago etc. seem worse (without trying).
