Funny conversation with the boss.

Me: “it’s open source but it has an enterprise version that handles RBAC better”
Him: “How long would Claude take to implement RBAC”
Me: “A couple of hours maybe a day if there’s back and forth”
Him: “what are the other enterprise features we need”
Me: “the workflow engine, SAM integration, backups and monitoring”
Him: “dig deeper and give me the estimated time and token cost”

I’m sure this is happening everywhere. Why pay for enterprise when you can vibe the features you need. OSS+gated features will no longer be a thing

(P.S.) OSS isn't going anywhere, but the classic "open core" thing ( giving away the base code but charging for enterprise features) is pretty much dead. Open-source codebases are so solid now that they're the perfect start point. If a team knows exactly what they need, they can just use that free foundation to build out those "premium" features themselves cleanly. I don’t like it but I understand it, why pay for an enterprise tier when your own devs can just build the exact same thing on top of the free version without it turning into a hacky mess..

For my specific case, it will save us thousands of dollars a month if we get it right.

I was expecting way more submissions by now.

Am I in the wrong industry? I need a voice coach

Should I just go to each party's headquarters and ask for their policies (manifestos)? How is it this difficult ffs

And this is why I never let AI run anything in prod. This is why I made pasta, so I can work on servers faster, more organized.

“SSH into prod and fix issue” should never be a thing. Ever. There are no guardrails even if there are guardrails.
Even if there’s an mcp server for it.

Finally got the time to start this. I’ve been on a gigantic cliffhanger for five months

The Audacity is a much darker silicon valley, almost succession-like dramedy depicting a bunch of morally bankrupt people in tech. An awesome (so far) series that finds its edge in the paranoid, ego-driven fallout of those who wield too much power. Make sure to watch the post-credits recap of each episode. I'm loving it so far and I recommend y'all to watch it.

I finally got onboarded to CBE Capital, and my first buy order just successfully went through: 3 Awash Bank shares at 3,000. It feels a bit overpriced, but then again, what isn't these days? My plan moving forward is to invest a fixed amount in the exchange every single month. I’ve previously owned shares from Zemen and other banks, and they’ve performed extremely well for me, serving as a solid overall investment and a great hedge against inflation. This recent purchase was really just a trial run to get a feel for it, but I plan to gradually invest more and more, and I genuinely hope y'all decide to do the same. If I had to share a general rule of thumb for anyone looking to start, it would be to stick to the bigger banks, invest consistently every month, and always hold for the long never try to day-trade.

There’s not a lot of options. Gadaa bank, Wegagen and Awash

Well well
