This is not true. We literally discovered a 32,000 year old burial site where a hunter put a mammoth bone in their deceased dogs mouth when they buried him . https://www.boehringer-ingelheim.com/animal-health/our-respo

Dreaming in animals is a well researched and proven phenomenon. https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/lifestyle/what-do-dogs-dre... > One of the most famous of these dream experiments involved lab rats. Rats in the

People out there with so little to feel good about they got to pretend animals don't think to feel better about themselves. Anthropocentrism is a hell of a drug.

There are a lot of things that you just straight can't get from an LLM if you don't understand what a given model is best at. Some models will spit out decently-good python code, but fail to consistently make a sonnet in proper ia

Not for Starbucks, who does fancy per-user VLANs, but for your local spot that's using an AP-router-combo they bought at Best buy, it sure is.

In Japanese, yes, because it has a phonetic alphabet. For example, "konnichiwa" is often shortened as "kon'chiwa". In Chinese, there is shorthand slang, but not shortening of words in writing based on spoken sounds

Line going up means economy healthy, right? Who cares about housing affordability, or ballooning national, student, and medical debt, or people having fewer kids due to economic anxiety, or increasingly destructive natural disasters all acr

This actually makes the most sense out of any of the replies, honestly.

See my other comment below, but all the things you're talking about work because English has a phonetic alphabet. You can break 'be with ye' into 'b', 'y', and 'e', and drop the rest. In language

No, but languages that use glyphs that are monophonemic and non-phonetic (one-sound per-glyph/character) don't have contractions, which are a function of removing some component part of a word when combining them. For instance, bo

If you're on MacOS or Windows, start a WebEx or zoom call; the timeout for screen locks is reset while a meeting is running. Also, it means that your boss sees "in a meeting" if they look at your status, which makes you look

You gotta eat, and companies hold all the cards here, and they buy and sell politicians to keep it that way. Welcome to America.

For bad coding interviews, sure. Use a short take-home test for coding stuff, and then do a live interview where you do roleplay and situational questions that make it really easy to tell if someone has actually done this stuff as a job, or

The stand-in is just for the interview, not their actual daily work.

How would they have learned a contraction if everything is based on glyphs/ images?

Probably no way for users to disprove this without access to iCloud servers, but users could prove it if they are getting photos reappearing from a previous phone, since obviously those could not be from local storage.

Silicon Valley was once the domain of nerds and introverts trying to build a better future. Now it's the domain of MBA-bros and idea guys- sorry, Thought Leaders- trying to measure themselves with their bank accounts. They ditched even

I'm sure Thread Group would love to stop Google making OpenThread available, but unless they want to tee-off against Google's legal team over patent infringement, the easier route for them is just threatening everyone else out of

The problem is that individuals cannot cut it out, because big tech firms use it pretty widely. It's basically a moat that allows companies to ship products using a shared standard, but makes it impossible for individual developers to

You are ignoring "practice", which in this context means any kind of operational use, including things like research (they also specify "implementation" separately, to explicitly cover development of products). Practice

These aren't "hardware people" writing the licenses, they're "legal people", i.e. lawyers.

That also can be used in the affirmative: "Wanna get food?" "Uh huh." "Understood", or "got it" expresses acknowledgement without agreement.

My boss was an enthusiastic (sorta) young dev, who has reported directly to our CISO ever since I started, and is now markedly less enthusiastic.

"Independent of a publisher" is less precise than, "independent ideas and creative freedom"? Mine is literally a binary, factual assessment, that is easily verifiable: did they use a publisher? Yours is a standard that t

My VPN is for my tunnel out of my home network, not for remote networks. This is definitely a major issue if mitigations aren't implemented, but it's not relevant to all use cases for VPNs.

Sadly, people use indie to mean small, rather than it's actual meaning of "independent of a publisher", and it's one of those things that I've nearly given up on fighting. It's even more sad because the only re

It's literally not fantastical. It literally just happened. And no, being cautious is never throwing shade, unless you're doing it in a discriminatory way, like assuming that Chinese or Russian contributors are more dangerous.

Ok, I think I see what you're getting at: You're assuming that the percentage increase in conversions after you extended or removed the trial timeout period across the board corresponds to users who previously would have been kick

*Tunneling* it through one hides the nature of that traffic from intermediary systems that it traverses from you up to that VPN exit point. There is a lot of metadata in packets that can be viewed by any interim hop, like your ISP, workplac

It should be outcome-based at every level , not just engineering. Time boxing as a group (e.g. scrum poker) is useful for preventing a leader from underestimating time required for a task, which is a necessary safeguard on most teams when
