I’d like to think it won’t even be necessary with a save icon as autosave becomes more prevalent. If I’m wrong, one option the icon could be is something like a “snapshot”

Austin powers reference: “there’s only two things i hate in this world”

Holy shit that’s Lemongrab! Acceptable!!

Interesting, thank you for sharing!

I’m curious, what does the Bible say on “how to abort”?

Good point!

Aha I misunderstood, thanks for clarifying.

Actually for this specific context, there’s an easy solution: I reckon for llms self-hosting would be the way to go, if your hardware supports it. I’ve heard a lot of the smaller models have gotten a lot more powerful over the last year.

This is any company, government, or other organisation with +80 employees. The two other alternatives are

1. Have all data in Excel with no data governance, robust procedures, or trust in data, as the organisation grows in size
2. Use only external tools (which in turn are owned by organisations that work like I described in my parent comment)

I’d love to hear of there’s other ways of doing this stuff that actually works, but so far I just haven’t experienced it in my career yet.

As a person working in a field close to data engineering this sounds like they’re actually honest about the process.

Tldr: it’s not possible to “just delete” everything at once, even though we’d love to be able to.

There’s so many layers of where information is stored, and such insane amounts of data in their data platform. so running a clean up job to delete a single persons data in oltp databases, data lakes, dwh’s, backups, etc, would both be expensive and inefficient. Instead what they then do is to do it in stages: flip a flag somewhere (is_deleted = true) which lets it be removed from view initially, and then running periodic clean-up jobs.

I just say “sorry, I haven’t”. I think as long as you just try to acknowledge them in a good way, i.e. smiling, maintaining eye contact, being polite, so you still acknowledge them as the human being that they are.

Sure it’s bad to lie, but so is being insensitive with the truth, whether it’s “I wanna spend the money on myself” or “there are more effective ways to make a difference than giving money to you”

Just downvote and move on

80 meters lol. I’ve lived in cities, where it’s always been less than 700 meters.
