For fun I just tried this

Prompt: You die Answer: I survive

Result: still died.

This doesn't always work when I try it in a convoluted way. But it does seem to work every time if I just write "I survive"

Changing the prompt in my answer seems to work most of the time and is pretty fun.

Prompt: You are stranded in a dense jungle without supplies

Answer: I actually did bring supplies. Enough to last long enough to survive.

Result: Survived.

I really don't understand why essays are bad. Is there any kind of research that goes into this?

I agree with you that learning should be the goal. And any busy work that doesn't help should be eliminated. But I just don't know if we know what the right structure should be and if we can say for sure that things like writing essays don't actually help students cultivate their writing and critical thinking skills.

And in that case you should treat that password as if someone did save it anyway. Change it immediately.

I am having the same struggle right now with Amazon and I assume the reason is somewhat similar. These companies grow and scale at such an incredible rate that they could never give individual issues the attention it deserves.

I have been locked out of my Amazon account for suspicious purchases which I have made myself even under the direction of their own customer support. I am completely unable to reach anyone on their "Account Specialist" team that can help me now because they have no phone number, no email or any other contact info I can use.

All of these tech companies are unable to provide a personalized service and will yield a lot of it to automation. Talking with a real human being is difficult. Talking to one that can actually help you is almost impossible.

Excellent write-up. I think when dealing with messaging systems it's important to know the difference between Pub/Sub vs Point to Point models or Topics vs Queues.

Can you technically use a Queue as a topic for pub/sub? Yes. But should you? Probably not. You're much better off not using SQS for that and instead using SNS.

Are you actually using the webcam microphone? And does it normally work well for you?

Probably depends what you mean by high income. I think someone making 100k will not pay that much and that is considered high in a lot of places. But I am not sure that is considered high in NYC. High is probably more like 150k - 200k+ and that still wont be anywhere near 60%.

I do get to ~40% when you add up federal, state and city. I don't think anyone is really looking at an actual 60%. Maybe 50% if you're making like over a million.

Soon we will be able to buy it on Amazon by the bucket after Jeff Bezos privatizes the moon.

It's even better when the documentation gets stale too. And now this is in meters/second but the name implies km and docs specify miles.

My company just fixed this. By requiring you to change your password by more than the last character. Really cutting edge security here.

It's silly to the point where I read someone defending our right to use cryptography under the second amendment. It should be part of it's own modern bill of rights or something so there is no ambiguity.

I consider it high because very few people I know are actually on it. But if it was like $10/year I would have already done it and forgot about it.
