Some new people you meet will prefer to see who you are by looking you up online. At least to me, someone's online presence is a testimony that the person is who they claim to be when it comes to their experience.

I don't think I was clear, I meant removal before their term has ended. Also, I said rarely so I know it exists, but not in the majority of countries.

It's the implication. The letter is a threat that you take them to court, which will cost them at least five figures, and will tie their attorneys with the case. They don't know how much fighting power you got, just make them beli

Poinson pill can be ignored and smashed on the wall by a judge, consult an attorney if you haven't already. Confidentiality is usually regarding public disclosure, it does not prevent your attorney and a judge from seeing it.

You get frustrated when your doctor is 30 minutes late. Being denied coverage by your insurance for something serious and expensive is a matter that causes hate.

> I also really don't get the apparent hate for react, usually from people who haven't used it all that much. Same for people that have never used Angular, or only used the old AngularJS 1.x I have more experience with Angular,

That happens when you ask SWE to design. To fix this, Amazon will need to do extensive UX research and incrementally make changes until the UI doesn't look the same and is more usable. Because users hate sudden change.

I have Netflix purchased legally with hard earned money. But because I had issues I looked for illegal streams, and they were bad, crashes, buffering.. you name it. So I went back to Netflix and watched it at 140p quality.

You're lucky you only had some buffering issues. This is got the case for many people, I don't know the percentage, but many people on reddit were complaining. This is bad for Netflix imo.

by Bilal_io 2y ago
Not sure how Netflix does it. But this is not very time sensitive, and I would have delayed the stream by 15 to 30 seconds to cache it and then deliver to everyone.

I find that Islam has the most satisfying and complete answers about these existential questions.

I haven't checked, but I think some of the videos on the page might be served directly from the server. Edit: Wow! they are loaded directly from the server where I assume no cdn is involved. And what's even worse they're not

I think what the parent means is that small models are more useful locally on mobile, IoT devices etc. so it defeats the purpose to have to call an API.

To add a high level context, Islam forbids gambling and interest bearing loans (Riba) because they're considered taking people's money unjustly. Allah says in the Quran: "O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gamblin

I would imagine the scale. This would provide much more power compared to geothermal installed in the same square footage.

This reminds me of Amazon, they allow users to cash out their gift card balance in a few states, but not in most. They have the technical implementation but still limit their users.

That's how I've always worked. I create everything in HTML and CSS and enhance the design iteratively, then I hook up the data fetched from the backend. It's way faster for me this way.
