you never know if the layout is about to shift ever so slightly more causing another in a series of misclicks.

Oh how many times I've accidentally assigned a newly created ticket to some poor fella I'd never even seen before...

Sorry but the usage of AI is too evident.

Their usage of upsert appears different than I was used to:

Me: Upsert = Update or Insert

Them: Upsert = Get or Insert

I'm not moving goalposts. My 2nd comment just adds detail, which i hoped the reader would manage to infer based on my 1st one. That's all.

My point is it's like saying a car is more inefficient than a bicycle because it uses (more) fuel... totally ignoring that it also gets you much further and that too much faster.

Whereas a valid, to me, criticism would be that a particular car is less efficient than another car bc it burns more gas, when both do about as good a job.

> Though we normally can’t perceive them, these vessels always occlude a portion of what we see, and for an important reason.

Efficiency is input / output, not just input.

15x input / 15x output is just as efficient as 1x input / 1x output.

They start out saying oxygen vessels partially and subtly occludes vision.

So the bird's eye doesn't suffer from this disadvantage.

In other words: It uses 15x more energy but presumably also sees 15x sharper and more into the distance than our human eye.

Sounds proportional at most, but certainly not inefficient for the bird's purposes?

This also highlights a major flaw with voting and political campaigning in democracies:

Undifferentiated blanket judgements based on biased framing, polarizing society artificially into totally unnecessary camps of opposition.

Another example is military and defense, or pharmaceuticals. Some rather beneficial and even necessary aspects to both, yet some disagreeable things to either as well.

"Why don't you just google it yourself?"

I suspect this is what's going on in most of these cases.

Developers either want to make money or work for someone who wants to make money.

In either case they will be forced to.

The multiplier got 2.5x-ed (from 3 to 7.5)

The minimum plan with Opus access is 4x costlier.

That's a 10x total price increase for having access to Opus at all.

But yes, if you account for the 5x more requests, then it's 2x – not relevant though if you're like me and wouldn't usually max out the quota.

Not sure it's ever good to assume this beforehand though. Most things are negotiable, if you know how to negotiate right.

Big if true. Can you cite an example? I'm all ears.
