The CEO is answerable to the shareholders, who do get paid when the company makes money.

What a weird premise. You really think anyone is buying iPhones because of the personal goodwill they feel about Apple or Tim or whatever?

Which corporation, if you don't mind me asking? And did you have a background in IR/library science specifically, or just a generalist?

I think it's easier to identify a low performer after a year of work than it is to identify a high performer after an hour of whiteboarding.

I guess it depends on your definition of "side-effects" but it definitely comes up in common ML packages. For one example, importing `torch` often takes seconds, or tens of seconds, because the import itself needs to determine if

Oh yeah, imports in Python are not just, like, extending a namespace like in many other languages. They, at runtime, go and run the module's __init__ and can have arbitrary side effects - an entire program can run (although usually sho

The specific mention of Bitwarden made it sound like there's something wrong with Bitwarden's implementation of TOTP in particular (which would be hard, since the TOTP client doesn't really do much beyond store a very passwor

Have the attackers actually leaked the code publicly yet, or are they just threatening to for now?

Well then, yeah, obviously Adobe doesn't do it. That's what this entire thread is about – someone asking them to do something they don't already do.

They absolutely do. To pick one out of countless examples, YouTube Premium is about $1.56/month in India and $22.99/month in Canada.

But approximately nobody uses Jabber. He means, "why did XMPP fail to achieve the level of adoption it seemed poised to take a decade or two ago?"

I'm not even sure we're talking about the same captcha. It was just an image grid with some symbols overlaid each cell and it wanted me to pick out which cell had two identical symbols. I found it annoying because it was different

Is there an A/B test at play? I don't see anything unusual or GPT-ish about the signup form. The only "unusable" aspect of it is the slightly-more-annoying-than-usual captcha.

What do you mean by having to link/unlink them?

Yup, that works.

Huh? It's completely normal (on the low range of normal, I'd wager), especially in the market of people buying desktop computers in 2023.

During orientation in my freshman year, we were told (off the record, by some seniors) the steam tunnels have been permanently closed for years, despite the huge convenience they used to provide by connecting far-away buildings underground

I have 0 domain knowledge as well, but it's pretty clear that no "comparison" can be made considering that Subsurface is a visualizer of logs from a dive computer, and Oceanic+ turns an Apple Watch into a dive computer. I g

What do you mean? It's a messaging platform with built-in integration to the largest social network in the world. I couldn't possibly imagine a more textbook example of lock-in.

It's this section of my .zshrc here: # edit long commands autoload -U edit-command-line bindkey -M vicmd v edit-command-line That `edit-command-line` autoload script is part of zshcontrib and should be installed by default

I can edit the terminal input line with full vim-mode in my shell (zsh). In fact, in normal mode I can even hit 'v' and edit the line in a full vim session to zip around however I want, do completions, etc. It's pretty close

You do it with folder-hooks. When you switch to a query that returns mail from a different account, you set a folder-hook that switches your From: address.

Yes, there can be lots of doubt. Women have been known, in the past, to have children even without the threat of a prison sentence.

Awesome! Thank you for going through whatever red tape was required :) To be clear, my description of the language as "informal and personal" was not meant as a criticism - I love it. It's just so different from the fake-enth

In what universe would that be "properly taxed"? You're saying I can work for 1 year in a $200K/year job and then draw $100k x 30 years = $3,000,000 of value from that one year of work? And it would be fair and just to t

In all earnestness - why? It's not like anyone would be fooled into thinking this was real. What's the harm?
