    Joining a startup

    That sounds like someone watched the social network movie. I can see that 50k getting diluted with a share split or locked in for longer time frame. Obviously someone at the top getting greedy.

    Dune Part Two, which cinema screen is best?

    I saw the iMax version enjoyed it. Thought the audio was too loud though. At times just at the point of being unbearable. There was a ad for Kong at the start which was actually uncomfortable it was so loud. Maybe I'm getting old.

    IT Sectors - Diversifying?

    I think if a company needs active directory or Azure it probably needs at least one full time IT Admin/Support person on site. At which point they don't need to contract out the other support that you do, or have someone winging it. No harm learning it but easy to get out of your depth with...

    Joining a startup

    I think startup ups a fantastic way to leap frog your career and opportunities. They are high risk and time consuming especially in your role. There won't be too many times those opportunities come up. I regret not embracing the few I had. I would be trying to reduce costs and bank 6-12 months...

    Does anyone else struggle day by day, week by week with work?

    I've had jobs in the past which I used to dread going into. But most of the time I'm enjoyed work especially if I'm busy. But at the moment I've lots of slack time and I dread that. Especially if it's a quiet day in the office I struggle to fill it.

    When are you going fully electric?

    The flip side of all this is theres decent used prices now for relatively new EVs. If they suit your requirements. If they don't then it doesn't matter what the price is.

    When are you going fully electric?

    I'm thinking...theres reasons theres so many Taycans for sale and it won't be reflected in a straight comparison with a panameras. As such they are not comparable. It's data distortion not data driven.

    On prem infrastructure to cloud - Career advise

    MFA is another black hole of developers skillset's. I don't think it's age. You get teens all using the cloud at school, social media, smart phones, yet can't use excel, or collaborative documents or databases. You'll get the teen techies who can, but the majority struggle to organise their...

    When are you going fully electric?

    No different to buying an over priced house just before the market goes pop. Time has everything to do with it. Not least the pandemic and then that it's constantly changing technology.

    When are you going fully electric?

    It's not the dealer, it's the manufacturers. They started a price war and companies like Tesla and Chinese brands aren't really interested in their used prices, so they are burning their used car market in this price war. There's also the market adjusting to increased supply, cheaper battery...

    When are you going fully electric?

    Posting a comment about EVs when taking about the taycan suggests you're not keeping up at the back. There's multiple reasons why the taycan in particular has a problem. Increased depreciation on EVs as a whole is very recent occurrence go back a couple of years and it's a different market. Why...

    On prem infrastructure to cloud - Career advise

    The problem I have with phoenix project book is that mostly everyone in it, eventually comes around to the right way of doing things, and that's not what happens in real life. While we saved money moving to the cloud, the costs of being in the cloud are rising. I can see at some point we'll be...
