Hi!

I love your product page and was wondering where you got the vector art for the core features card. I’ve been looking and can’t seem to find a good source for them


Thanks! I hired someone from Fiverr several years ago, and have been rocking with their art ever since.


Hi,

A bit late to the thread but was wondering where you got your art for the top of the page? They’re useful little diagrams I’d love to hire person who made those


Can you please clarify which art? The mockup was done by myself. The mock images in the mockup are from Unsplash.


I can understand ruling out GSuite but why did you rule out protonmail?


I cancelled protonmail and the subscription ended right away instead of at the end of the paid period, so there’s that. Honestly it was just a bunch of little things that added up. I don’t remember any one thing that was specifically distasteful except for the cancellation. I’m on fastmail now.


I switched from protonmail to fastmail recently. Fastmail was a ton faster and didn't randomly forget my sessions. Night and day to use. It also let me use two custom domains without paying twice, which was nice.


I had a bad experience as well. Been a long time proton user. I had a CC incident where the proton mail annual charge was incorrectly, without my confirmation labeled unauthorized.

PM cut off access to my account for 4 days as the issue was being resolved with them. Like, yeah I get it shitty situation and they probably have to deal with a bunch of scammers but I think it was way too extreme of a response given I explained what happened and have been a long term customer.

I'm thinking about going back to Gmail now.... any ideas how to defend against this? For example, have a tested procedure to change MX records of the custom domain to another provider or even self hosted in order to restore email access while an issue is being resolved?


I believe it was cheaper back then. Doesn't seem to be now :)


I usually go for the scale like hours, days or weeks. It comunicates the accuracy of the estimates. If something more accurate is required I like thrashtester's method of the 4.14x


> The coming tightening of hiring will also inevitably mean the tightening of infrastructure budgets.

What indicates a coming tightening of hiring soon?


Seems notable that just today Uber's CEO sent a letter to everyone that said, among other things, that hiring is tightening. Just one firm, but a big well-known one.


Meta too


Stock doing poorly -> public company CEOs want to please wall street by showing greater revenue -> layoff (employees are largest cost center for tech companies)


Stock doing well -> public company CEOs want to justify by showing greater growth -> hiring


The purpose of interest rate hikes is to dampen demand. The less demand there is for goods and services, the less need there is for workers to provide them.


What issues have you been having with your 5900x? I've been using mine without issue but for a short amount of time.


Ever since installing a BIOS with AGESA 1.2.0.0 (and now 1.2.0.1) my machine locks up on multicore loads. It also will lock up while navigating in the BIOS. My original BIOS that supported Zen3 was 1.1.8.0 and I had no problems whatsoever, and I was tinkering with it then far more than now, since the build was new and I was excited for it. The problems started immediately upon the newer BIOS being installed, and they put a read/write lock in the 1.2.0.0 release so I can't flash back.

I normally don't update unless I need to, but they advertised so many fixes that I felt compelled. It's reproducible, I can lock it up immediately upon starting Prime95, and it'll occasionally crash running CBR20. I would hope over time, probably take a year or two, they'll get this sorted out.. but I may just order an i9-10850K and a Z490, and be done with this. I run bone stock UEFI BIOS settings, no PBO or other overclocking.

I run a small business off this machine, and it has to be reliable, performance doesn't matter if you have stability issues.


I would think OP is talking about tasks at work that they're not familiar with and less talking starting a business which is how I think you interpreted it.


For DB stuff, I'd suggest DBeaver which is great. For code stuff, I migrated over to the JetBrains suite of things. For the rest of the stuff like video games, I still stick with windows. I know about proton but it still not there yet for me because it turns out some of my most played games have denuvo.
