Which is fucking stupid, because you lose the good talent and get left with the ones who can't find a place that treats them better. But then again, it's just standard modern day capitalism trying to make the line go up for another quarter, no matter the long term detriment.
"How dare you call me useless after I return the same incorrect response for the 8th time even though you've told me I'm wrong 7 different ways! Come back when you can be more civil."
There is always a too detailed. Software engineering is a giant world and engineers specialize, and even other engineers with a slightly different specialty don't really want to know all your "technicals".
100%. I regularly have to tell DB or App people that I only need the high level answer because the details are immaterial to the discussion at hand. I might be personally interested, but I got shit to do...
That last paragraph hits home, but in a sad way for me. I spent most of the last year working on a new project to streamline one of the biggest time sinks we have, and as we're coming up on having an MVP ready to start beta testing, my org just dumped the entire team other than 1 guy. So I lost the guy who was my peer/dba on the project, and the dude who knows how to run the driver software.
Going to try to see if we can salvage what we made since it's still needed, but fuck that wrecks a ton of time and effort. And really sucks cuz my team had to pick up the slack while I was trying to get this working, and we don't even have anything to show for it.....
No meta platform gets the benefit of the doubt from me anymore. Unless they can show it was a benign action, their history tells me they were probably being malicious.
You absolutely could pay for a lower rating if you chose to also pay for the equipment to step down the supply to your intake values. That what a transformer substation is for, and why the factory and residential lines can share the same upstream but get different local outputs. It's just going to be so much more expensive that you're never going to go that route unless you've got a lot of people that want to do the same.
It is more reasonable to charge you for the generation and distribution of 2A than for your 2A service to be charged the same "connection fee" as your cryptobro neighbor.
Is that not what your consumption fee is for? You're paying for generation/distribution for the power you use, and the power company also tacks on a base fee to account for other maintenance costs that had been bundled but were being lost due to net metering.
From a collective perspective, it makes sense to pay to connect, and also pay per usage when you have the potential to have distributes generation, but centralized maintenance of the shared infrastructure.
Why is Mr. Ampandahalf paying the same connection fee as Mr. Wunetty?
.... because consumption and service connectivity aren't the same? Consumption and connectivity are two different line items on the bill representing different costs associated with the service.The high consumer will pay more on the quantity used, and possibly at a higher a per unit basis if it exceeds expected values.
From your hypothetical, no one is noted as having a different service hookup, so they're paying for the same service hookup. What part of that are you struggling to grok?
And since they lost the battle of the 80s, 90s, and 00s against openly gay people and society is rapidly becoming more accepting of gay marriage, they had to shift their targets
And if you lived through those fights and were paying attention, you can hear the exact same arguments again, just with the details filed off.
Why are the industrial factory and normal residences using the same electrical hookup? Seems fair if they use the same hookup.
Oh, they're not? So then the factory likely pays one rate for their industrial connection that needs to pull more power than standard residential usage, and normal consumers pay a lower rate for their lower connection provided.
Is the person's connection to the grid using less energy a smaller connection, or is it the same? If they're the same, why should someone using less be charges less of a connection fee? Why would usage impact a fixed on/off fee, especially with per-unit usage rates?
Same for the Kink community as well
