Just show them New Relics new pricing
shyn3··on For your next side project, make a browser extension
I love this idea of making your own. I wanted to create one that types the text I highlight like a type writer. Will have to try it now. Thanks.
shyn3··on Old man yells at cloud
As options grow flexibility for power users disappears is my challenge.
shyn3··on Old man yells at cloud
AFAIK, you have to do this before.

Maybe this has changed.

The first outage I had, you couldn't even sign in.

The second outage, you had to set it offline before your internet died. This was when Rogers was down in Canada.

shyn3··on Old man yells at cloud
If your internet is down you can't play your gamepass games offline. Exciting stuff.
shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
This is the cancer that infected big tech. A class of professional managers who provide little to no value but don’t want to leave because the grift is so easy.

?

Also green accounts are triggered.

OC literally said a manager who can't code is evil.
shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
Dude learning to work in teams is the only way to grow.

You can only be so good on your own.

Im relating it to my pay and happiness. Realizing your team is amazing is liberating.

shyn3··on Ask HN: Google useless for shopping / product reviews?
Hey I love when I see you post on here. Thanks for all you do.
shyn3··on Ask HN: Google useless for shopping / product reviews?
Few free searches to show case your product is probably better.

Chatgpt3 will fail if they close their free access.

It takes money to make money.

I like your description but it has a login wall so hard no. Cool concept!
shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
Toxic. Rethink this. I had this mentality and it hindered me significantly. Now I listen too the worst idea and I've grown personally and professionally more than ever.
shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
You can replace that to say that mentality is toxic. Not an attack on you, just a way of conversation. Dialects and attitudes across the world differ. When I say you, in that context, I'm critiquing your claim, as I don't know you personally.

Your definition of control is different and conformist.

Management control their own destiny. Coder's don't in a business.

If your manager calls you have to answer. If you call them they can ignore it.

Your response is in the sense of the business growth. I'm speaking to your and your coworkers sanity.

I'm referring to having a job where you enjoy what you do. Your response suggests goals of fulfilling someone else's dreams which OP didn't suggest. He was referring to his own QOL.

shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
Dudes a coder who doesn't want to sit at a box all day. I didn't go into programming because it just feels boring doing what he said.

Management allows you to control what you want to work on. OP wants enjoyment. Control provides it.

In fact OP would be the total opposite of normal management.

I'd say your mentality is toxic. People who can't code can ideate. You don't need to know X to be able to lead X. Many programmers actually suck at thinking outside the box and I'd sit on calls where nobody could figure it out. A business manager articulats the problem and it's solved in an hour.

shyn3··on Ask HN: I achieved my dream of being a self-taught dev. I hate it. Now what?
What do you like about coding? Building the whole project or the key parts?

You can move towards management if you get the big picture and only code things you like.

One of my managers in the past would attend meetings all day and strategize. If he found a project he liked, he'd delegate someone to attend his meetings.

He figured out a way to keep himself sane.

shyn3··on Tinder users are using ChatGPT to message matches
Is had a coworker remark they can read at almost twice the speed after gpt3. They used to be at 20 wpm now 55.
shyn3··on Ask HN: GPT-3 and the Future of Advertising
They won't do it though. They can't risk the cash cow they have.

Think Digg when they came out with the current Reddit design.

shyn3··on Amazon rescinding the offer while I am on the notice period
This is so true.
shyn3··on Ask HN: GPT-3 and the Future of Advertising
They won't because that's just how transitions happen. They would need to completely change how their interface works and pivot from their current customer base.

Someone will figure out a way to make a hyper localized chat bot which sends referral links.

I'm not too sure of the different levels of machine learning but and got but gpt3 chat and services like it are time saving.

I was able to watch a non technical person buy a VM from linode, deploy debian, setup WordPress behind nginx and setup ssl offloading.

Google would never be able to help. The person would just quit from overload.

shyn3··on Ask HN: GPT-3 and the Future of Advertising
Gpt3 is going to kill Google.

News outlets have already died. What exists today is not news. Those aren't journalists. The AI can already write better.

shyn3··on Amazon rescinding the offer while I am on the notice period
Wow. Sorry man. Head high. You got this!

We need a list of companies who act this way and boycott their products.

shyn3··on “News is what somebody does not want you to print – all the rest is advertising”
The story is the advertisement.
shyn3··on Show HN: Create a Children's book with AI – with illustrations
If you are going to charge, notify the person before they spend the effort. I think.

The pay what you want seems cool.

I have a story like but needs images. I think that's the value add.

shyn3··on ChatGPT is a ‘code red’ for Google’s search business
I've already reduced my Google queries by 70%.

I now query openai find a general idea and then query that in Google.

Speaking in absolutes when you don't have a crystal ball is annoying. And negativity sucks.

shyn3··on A new chat feature has been released by You Search
This needs to be locally targeted. For example, is Swiss Chalet near me open?
shyn3··on Ask HN: How do you keep track of all the content you encounter?
I need a Firefox or Chrome extension that scrapes all text on every page and stores it for me somewhere.
shyn3··on Show HN: Create a paid link to anything
I'm convinced this will be a Dropbox moment.
shyn3··on Ask HN: Remote Working and Cameras-On
I hate seeing people in camera. I don't want to know if you are deaf or have four eyes. I don't want to know your disability.

I'm here to offer to information for anyone. If you're not able to hear me, I'll adjust. When I know about your disability I cater to you which reduces our growth.

I wish more people realize that cameras affect vulnerable populations.

shyn3··on Ask HN: If I get locked out of everything, please try to help me
Sorry to hear about your situation. We really need to host our own email or utilize a paid service, but it becomes cumbersome and expensive. I'm not sure what the solution to this is.
shyn3··on Ask HN: Those with money-making side projects,how did you come up with the idea?
Usually banks have a template so the edge cases aren't so edgy. Had to do this with Canadian banks and each one had their own template, but once you parsed it, generally, it worked until they updated their template again.
