I like the idea and face the same challenge. I’ve just installed it and, from my first impressions, it seemed a bit basic. Here’s what I expected:
Hundreds of recipes that I could swipe left and right through, allowing me to build up a typical selection of what I would usually eat. Instead, I was presented with only three choices, none of which I would generally consider.
A simple way to send the code to my wife — via imessage, Telegram, etc. Instead, I had to tell her in person! :)
This presents the perfect opportunity to delve into shopping lists where the wife wants something healthy, and the I crave a burger. I can think of quite a few features you could add if the app develops further.
Also, like the comment below about having a stranger over for dinner (not for dating purposes), it could involve a couple or someone visiting a new country who would appreciate a local showing them around and perhaps covering the dinner cost. Once the app learns your food preferences and interests, that could be quite exciting! There might already be an app that does this; I’m not sure. Swiping left and right on both food likes / dislikes and also general interests.
CyberStrike offers a temporary solution for crashed systems
Cyberstike has given users a potential way to fix their systems.
Boot Windows into Safe Mode or the Windows Recovery Environment (you can do that by holding down the F8 key before the Windows logo flashes on screen)
Navigate to the C:WindowsSystem32driversCrowdstrike directory
Locate the file matching “C-00000291.sys” file, right click and rename it to “C-00000291.renamed”
Boot the host normally.
Yup. Well in our case (and we are thankfully not affected), they could call IT support. But then again, if IT support themselves cannot boot their PCs...
I feel old - remember having access to Delphi 1 alpha as we were one of the first third-party VCL components. I was moving from VB3 and Delphi felt like a major upgrade and super cool!
Honestly EU doesn't have to change a single thing. All compliance exists already.
The trick is to not track good children at all, only those bad ones. I'd you leverage sanction lists (that exist already) to track the bad children, you have all cases covered.
Any Santa related contractor (Santa helpers, elves, etc) have to check a sanction list to see if they can finalize a transaction with said child.
As for lists: when a child sends a request for particular gift, it starts a formal transaction. The other entity is legally allowed to process said child's data to provide the service they agreed upon.
Kids that have not sent a letter to Santa and are not mentioned in sanction lists, can still get gifts but Santa lacks profiling metadata and can only provide generic, unprofiled gifts. Which is good as already have sufficient amount of Bluetooth speakers and Paw Patrol toys.
Wait, how would tracking bad kids be less illegal? I think putting bad children on state sanctions list might very well be deserved for some of them, but a bit overkill... Imagine not doing your homework leading to being officially sanctioned by EU governments or the UN... though I'm sure that's a pretty convincing way to make someone do their homework.
I would not optimise for performance yo early. All the building blocks are here. Let's leave "scaling issues" to the Christmas OPS team! Some cloud provider must have a North Pole region, right?
I have worked with a few CEOs like this; the last was an old company (25 years) in dire need of a digital transformation to survive. The company had more than 300 employees and was still using Excel and Lotus Notes on-prem server room. I started a move to Office365 and Azure Cloud .NET, but the CEO showed no interest in the technology and gave me a few months to complete the transition. He came up with some unrealistic ideas for accomplishing the move when timescales were not met.
After a year, I left the company after delivering a few things. Recently, I visited their website and found only a single home page with several PDF documents embedded within it and no sign of any client-facing solution. Assume they are back in Excel again.
There are plenty of CEOs / Founders out there that would love to find a great CTO / CIO so don't give up looking :)
My advice is to start looking for a new job or go freelance. I started doing fractional CTO work - which is interesting but challenging to find new clients.
