One of the two healthcare workers tested negative for flu, the other recovered quickly and was not tested. That description doesn't sound like bird flu, so it seems xo

Counterpoint: if you hate your job, talk shit about it on Slack, get fired, get severance. (the alternative being quitting and not getting any severance)

Yes, I am aware. I'm mostly asking why this operation, _in addition to_ what Hezbollah does, is not also considered terrorism. Sounds like the tl;dr is that civilians aren't the primary target, therefore it is not terrorism.

I'm genuinely curious: how is this not considered terrorism on Israel's part? (or is it considered terrorism?) From a tactical standpoint, this is very similar, and the only big difference I see is that this is technologically mor

IIRC the Rust book talks about files automatically being closed when dropped, and how that's better than having a close method. That's probably why it's not a separate method, even though it suppresses errors.

How many tries it will take depends on a lot of factors, mostly luck. Pay attention to what works and what doesn't, and keep improving. Somebody else saying "it took me N tries before making $5000/month" won't mean

The article says that trying to bring back mammoths is endangering other elephant species, so in this case it is mutually exclusive

Cool, but why would we want to do this? Is there any practical value? There are species that are important to our current ecosystem that are going extinct, why are we bringing back mammoths instead of fixing that?

There seems to be a lot of arguments citing that "$otherPlatform should be held liable for the same things!" The main takeaway here is that Durov is not being arrested strictly because his platform contains illegal material. He is

Props for being open. As a tentative future customer, hearing you say "we're not reliable (yet)" isn't awesome, but it's infinitely better than what large cloud platforms do (that is, gaslight you into thinking noth

I know someone who had an almost identical experience with CIBC in Canada: accounts (including payroll) completely frozen, nobody to contact, nobody who can help. Never found out the reason, either.

Psychedelics are not illegal in the U.S., and never were. Psilocybin is illegal in the U.S., but the psychoactive drugs FTA were not psilocybin.

As somebody who's worked in game dev, I can relate to the author. You could totally argue that the incompatibility and non-modularity of the land + naval AI systems is bad design, but that does not put the blame on the author: they may

This is such a severe bug it almost feels like a supply chain attack/back door of some sort. Is that a likely scenario here? I saw another comment saying that these CPUs are used in Scaleway's cloud, so it's certainly a legti

imo, in the current landscape we will not see any largely popular P2P services/platforms. Mastodon is largely a flop (it has a few deeply ingrained issues and a lot of usability problems), Web3 is a scam (nobody wants to pay money to v

I wonder if CrowdStrike did do a phased rollout (as they should), but didn't notice that the update was causing crashes? Not sure if that would make them more or less incompetent...

It ain't that deep. Back then, you had to understand the lower level concepts in order to use the computer... Nowadays, you don't. It's that simple.

Well, one reason we don't know why SSRIs give therapeutic relief is because they don't, actually! There has been no clinical evidence on SSRIs mitigating the effects if clinical depression, and a lot if anecdata I've seen is
