A woman is interested in computers and gains skills in that area, then tries to get a job in the field. People making hiring decisions like their boys-club culture (maybe even subconsciously) so the woman doesn't get hired even though

This reminds me in a way of the yacht with a system that detects cameras taking a picture of the yacht and sends a beam towards the camera to wash out the image. https://petapixel.com/2012/10/28/worlds-largest

I unsubscribed many years ago but occasionally I am tasked by my significant other to find something on Netflix (shared account with her family). I actually have pretty good luck with searching for random things. Like I searched for "

Wow I love this guy's content (immediately got sidetracked away from the linked page and started reading at a frenetic pace). It is the sort of treasure trove that I am lucky to stumble upon once a year at most. In fact, reading this

I have lived in a lot of different places over the past three years so have improved each area as I pass through. Now where I am settled down most of the city's buildings aren't even traced so there is a lot to do. I'm busy

The recent update which re-architected the internal systems was a great improvement for my uses of the app, based on a few minutes of testing at least. Very nice to be able to immediately put in the house number after choosing that a buildi

Indeed, even with edgy "out there" content it is important to have "restraint" like you said...someone with a vision of what the product will be. This can also be seen in the Trailer Park Boys TV show. Seasons 1-7 under

It is different mainly in that if you want to move around large amounts of money outside of the banking system you can do so without using briefcases/trucks full of physical cash. Whether that movement is illegal or legal is probably a

(1) The government that also governs your power, water, roads, etc. Maybe some sort of visa process for people who wish to "import" software. (2) For sure new laws would need to be created, and it would be difficult. (3) Right no
