Been an Atlassian consultant for a while and I just left (Rather I was let go) from an established Atlassian partner, and I can only feel relief. I was always more of a data center on prem person and all this cloud nonsense has been going nowhere, except for them. Those acquisitions are always half baked and you *might see some of it somewhere in a product. All I can say is I’m happy I’m no longer doing Atlassian consulting.


Virtue signalling, hand wrangling and mostly jostling in international affairs. Nothing of consequence. Just daily business


Jaw, jaw is better than war, war

This theatre is the way countries can negotiate and communicate peacefully


I hate YouTube, Google, Meta and all their products with a passion. Well deserved.


Echoing to this perhaps, I heard birds can react 13 times faster than we do, which is especially useful in flight with hundreds or thousands of other birds.


Yes, smaller animals, faster heartrate, more direct wiring, they probably experience time different than we do.

Many human responses are purely unconcious muscle memory due to nervous system latency, this also implies the brain has evolved to be highly predictive as to compensate.

Which I’m reminded of every time I reach to grab a knife I’ve dropped, instead of just stepping back and letting it fall.


you should see the reaction time of the fly that's been in my house for days now


The trick to catching a fly is to move very slowly


Correct, or let your cat do it :D


I have heard tell that this works. I have it on somewhat good authority that old ladies may also work with unpredictable results.

Wow this brought back a hazy memory of school sing-a-longs, thanks.


Forgot to mention this startup doing good work and it’s a promising lead. Getting lots of traction recently. https://terratis.fr/


Very interesting we’ve had infestations here (France) while I was living in the south, adding biogents moquitaire traps is also successful as a complement, April onwards to October. But I love the name bucket of death. Tiger mosquitoes are such an annoyance


This is absolutely amazing, awe inspiring.


Had a new Kia for the past five years and there were no issues apart from a speaker replaced under warranty. I cannot trust PSA, Renault, Stellantis or any other brands anymore. (Takata airbags) As for those flagships from renowned brands, it feels like a trend. I ‘did’ trust Volvo but won’t anymore. The way it was handled is particularly poor.


Remember. Mc Donald’s are not in the Burger business.


how do i add RAG / personal assistant features on iOS?


you can plug in a vector DB and run Cactus embeddings for retrieval. Assuming you're using React Native, here's an example:

(Flutter works the same way)
