Life goal: don’t have a salary; have a “compensation package”

Can you name a better option?

I feel like both are valuable for different purposes. Do you really have specific requirements? For example a piece of software to dispense a defined amount of a medication into a bottle. It requires plus/minus 1 ml accuracy for health safety. It will use Acme Corp stepper motor to operate the dispenser which has its own requirements. It will operate on arm based Linux for low cost. These are requirements, they will not change. We will sell the device with a high definition screen with 1080p(no one is gaming or watching movies on a medication dispenser, no need for 4k or 8k).

Then there are more agile things. Some pharmacies are 24hrs, the users want a dark mode so it’s easy on eyes at night. Don’t write specific colors for buttons into your requirements at beginning. Some prescriptions are sold between 10ml to 5 L(making up numbers) so users want a touch pad to enter values instead of up and down buttons(pressing up 5000 times would be a pain). How users enter amount should not be a requirement at beginning. These can change and should use a agile approach.

Requirements in my mind are things were changing is a huge investment and would require a new round of design. Those should be defined up front. That’s waterfall. Other aspects should be easier to change based on whims of customer. That’s agile.

If a customer says we like your software but want to use Other Corp motor, no sorry not compatible. If customer wants their logo in corner should be doable.

As always, best choice is it’s depends on situation

Yeah if your only storing username and passwords and hoping no one uses the same username. Now consider I’m running tests on a piece of hardware and storing results in the database. I run 45 tests per unit so I can’t use serial number as id, I want a way to get all results for a single unit and I have 5 testers since I’m high volume but each test takes 30 seconds.

Tester 1 and tester 4 might get same pk if offline, random IDs for each record won’t work since I can’t combine everything for 1 unit. This is more why you use uuids for each test

Hers my favorite example, it’s 128 languages in a Quine relay https://github.com/mame/quine-relay

Everything up to the laser welding was as a teenager.

I have the opposite situation at the moment. I bought a bag food, early last week. It was delivered last Thursday. It is supposedly suppose to arrive today, still waiting for it to be “out for delivery” though. We will see what happens, like when it’s delivered they are supposed to take a picture but it’s already in my kitchen.

I want like a sub sandwich with American cheese coated with manwich …

You don’t stop … Factory must grow !!

Yeah you are right but …

Am I the only one who thinks this is one market that we can’t complain about prices on? In the mid 90s premium games were 60-70 dollars. Like super Mario bros 3 was 70 dollars. Now current premium games are 60-70 base price(not including dlc). Thats not counting the tons of games for less than 20 these days. In 30 years prices have mostly gone done despite inflation. Imagine if that was true for cars, or houses or even dog food …

I like doing what I call “building up” my sauce. Like a jar of store bought sauce, a large diced onion grilled till translucent, 1 or 2 diced peppers, a can of tomato paste, a can of tomato sauce, a can of diced tomatoes, a lb of browned ground beef, a package of sliced mushrooms, some mozzarella cheese, some Parmesan cheese, some ricotta cheese, a few cloves of garlic, basil, onion powder, garlic powder, rosemary, paprika, a dash of cloves, thyme

Pour into a pot, medium heat for maybe 45 minutes to an hour, boil pasta to aldente ,layer of sauce, layer of pasta, optionally a layer of sausage slices , a layer of cheese, a layer of sauce, a layer of pasta, a layer of sauce, optional sausage, a layer of cheese and bake at 350 for an hour…

Typically that can feed my teenage son, girl friend and myself for like 4 days and sometimes throw out the end because we are sick of eating so much pasta for 4 days…

I have a really odd history of jobs… First job was installing multi million dollar home theater systems, then did a summer renovating a house(paint, refinish floors, install kitchen appliances, built 3 closets, moved a wall, replaced all windows and doors) , did 4 years as a corporate network administrator, 10 years laser welding medical devices, 4 years as a manufacturing technician, 2.5 years as a software engineer…yeah it’s an interesting resume…

Game looks decent but totally thought of one piece with that name…

Looks great, my only suggestion is add more sauce as especially the edges look dry. That said I love saucy pasta

I hope one day to get whipped cream…

I mean…kinda?? This should be easy and deterministic. Check count of syrup if count less than 3 order more syrup else send excess syrup to neighbor store . Why does this need ai?

I’ll get to it as soon as I figure out how many bald eagles it takes to make a Michelob ultra 64

I want a pancake drawer…
