Worth noting the base model only has 1Gb ethernet, not 10Gb as mentioned in the blog.


> And the system I bought includes 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 32 GB of RAM

I thought it was pretty clear from "the system I bought" that he was not talking about the base model. And I think $100 for 10 GbE is surprisingly reasonable for an upgrade from Apple. For comparison, 10 GbE Thunderbolt adapters typically cost about $200 - and while 10 GbE PCIe cards can be bought for less, they tend to be much less power efficient and generate a surprising amount of heat.

I actually think it's very commendable that Apple even gives the option to upgrade to 10 GbE on a mass market desktop. I was recently looking to buy a non-Apple Mini PC, and while 2.5 GbE is very common now, 10 GbE is still relatively rare. The options I found were to go with a Minisforum MS-01, which is considerably more expensive than the base M4 Mac Mini w/10 GbE upgrade, or to order something slightly sketchy from Aliexpress. So as soon as Apple announced the new M4 Mac Mini, I went with that instead.


An individual S3 bucket or policy for each user?


Everything user specific. Nothing should operate across users. Why should it anyway. You only need to aggregate logs across users, cloud watch does this.


Well for one there is a hard limit of 1000 s3 buckets per account


I don't care if a CEO spends their own money on PAC donations - but sending a mass email to all your customers (including international ones) about an election is just bizzare.


I'm not talking about a CEO spending their own money. Companies themselves give to PACs.

Makes sense to acquire with newly issues shares while the $ZM stock is so high


Wow, I should become a Chief Legal Officer..


They sold Series E shares at $41.


kinda ironic how in his post he's trying to compete on fees


Coinbase doesnt have 2.5% fees so it is ironic that it is extremely competitive

Their retail platform has a 1% withdrawal fee unless you are using USDC in which case it is 0%

And their trading platforms have 20 basis points and less commissions


Coinbase charges a spread of about one-half of one percent (0.50%) for cryptocurrency purchases and cryptocurrency sales. However, the actual spread may be higher or lower due to market fluctuations in the price of cryptocurrency on Coinbase Pro between the time we quote a price and the time when the order executes.

We also charge a Coinbase Fee (in addition to the spread), which is the greater of (a) a flat fee or (b) a variable percentage fee determined by region, product feature, and payment type. The flat fees are set forth below:

If the total transaction amount is less than or equal to $10, the fee is $0.99 If the total transaction amount is more than $10 but less than or equal to $25, the fee is $1.49 If the total transaction amount is more than $25 but less than or equal to $50, the fee is $1.99 If the total transaction amount is more than $50 but less than or equal to $200, the fee is $2.99

Edit: There's another section about how they charge 4% to deposit dollars unless you use ACH (and wait 1 week) or wire transfer (then they charge you $10 to deposit or $25 to withdraw)


And then someone says "just look at Square or Venmo, they do fine connecting to your bank or whatever, adding Bitcoin to the mix just adds another layer of complication"


I created a quick Rails app after Sam Altman posted his "The days are long but the decades are short" blog to send one of this 32 quotes to a Slack channel, everyday.

If you haven't checked out the blog have a look here: http://blog.samaltman.com/the-days-are-long-but-the-decades-...

Sam's blog really hit home to me on a number of points, so I decided that I wanted to be reminded of what he said in a regular fashion. I set up a cron job to notify our Slack channel every day at 9:30am just as my work day was about to begin.

I've found it really useful to continue to be reminded about these. Hopefully some of you will find this useful too :)
