You won't believe what they're doing in China.

This is the Chinese port in Guangzhou.

People unload ships remotely with 5G, AND THEN, AI vehicles automatically drive the containers to trucks and load them, without human assistance.

Have been trialing @RunsOnRunsOn for the last 9 days. And our total service costs on AWS using spot instance is the same as our daily spend was using the same size runners on GH actions. Great work @crohr

How old were you when you figured out dependency injection was just “arguments”

Finally the account is closed. 🍾🍾🍾

[Chad Lamb @lamb003]

So you can’t close a private clients account in a branch you need to ask your banker. Sounds convenient but I have now been trying to close my account for 3 months with varying rates of response from my “dedicated banker”.
@Nedbank private clients is such a fucking waste of time

[Chad Lamb @lamb003]

The account has been overdrawn due to accrued bank fees for a week or so and they tell me I need to clear the debt before the account can be closed. Umm sorry I have been trying to close the account for THREE MONTHS while it had money to cover fees.

[Chad Lamb @lamb003]

@DonovanFroon @Nedbank Pretty much. Every time I’ve needed something my request gets sent on to someone else. Glorified switchboard operator. But via email so it’s orders of magnitude slower. Literally wait days for a response even when I follow up multiple times.

[Chad Lamb @lamb003]

@Nedbank The fact that I need to dm the admin of the Twitter account to maybe get some help is the problem.
