Conduit everywhere. Every cable will be obsolete eventually, a conduit run to every room with pull cables makes it so replacing cables doesn't require a remodel.

Not to mention in house solutions are basically guaranteed to cost more than AWS to get something even close to as comparable. A basic service like Lambda is complex as fuck and has had billions of dollars poured into making it what it is today.
I've become the primary maintainer of a jumbled mess of a PHP/Laravel project we use as our"mission control" at work and I've been dying due to lack of dev tools. Might have to take a look at this (pester my manager for a license) assuming it has Laravel support.
Yes? I work in the identified healthcare data space, but work close to people in the unidentified space and even something as personal as health data can be obfuscated in such a way it's impossible to trace back to an individual. Not to mention whatever they're logging is surely many orders of magnitude less identifiable. They also have an entire page dedicated to answering these types of questions and concerns.
I don't necessarily agree. If a brand makes high quality stuff I'm not gonna avoid them just because they put their logo on their stuff. I have a kickass Adidas backpack from 2014 that is by far my favorite, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna get rid of it just because it has an Adidas logo on it.
I also have perfectly good clothes with various brands on them, and I'm not just gonna throw them away because that's wasteful as hell. I don't go out of my way to buy stuff with brands on them, but that won't stop me from buying something I genuinely like and find to be high quality.
Aggregate data doesn't mean no client side data. It's possible they're collecting aggregate level client data too. They could go further and collect data on individuals that is not identifiable or useful to law enforcement in any way. I can think of a few ways to get anonymous usage data that allows you to improve your service while protecting your users. I don't know their scheme but they clearly don't need overly invasive forms of analytics as they have a solid service.
Quality of service is usually only useful with aggregate data which is worthless for prosecuting an individual.
If you have the technical knowledge (or ability to follow instructions) you can setup your torrents behind a VPN using qBittorrent and gluetun in one docker container, and Plex/Jellyfin in another with a shared volume between them. It provides you near bullet proof protection due to the isolated environment and prevents accidentally clicking those .mp4.exes since it abstracts file management away from you. It's also super user friendly once set up even if you're not running a media server 24/7 and just want it for your desktop.
If you wanna get fancy you can use the *arr suite of software to do some magic fairy shit including automatic indexing (searching dozens of torrent sites simultaneously), but that can quickly become a deep rabbit hole. Once setup though it's seamless and kicks ass.
Should be at least double in the US since it would be consultancy work which brings higher taxes (1099 vs W2) and no benefits. A $500 full day consultation is super cheap.
If they ain't paying you enough to stay they're highly unlikely to honor the idea of regular raises. They've already shown they're willing to low ball you if they can get away with it so fuck taking the risk of staying.
Yeah this seems pretty reasonable to me? 20 over is well beyond just speeding a little bit. I understand culturally speeding on freeways has been accepted, but doing 20 over anywhere is asking to cause an accident due to the large speed differential with those actually obeying the law. Especially with the insane rate at which fatality rates climb as speed increases.
Poor insulation, and even if you had drop ceilings you still have headers you'd have to drill through at the top of every wall. Not to mention they look awful and damage easily.
