One thing, Yahoo and IBM had remote, then one day that perm remote became a nope. Some people are very poor at remote. If too many are thus, it may end.

Eh? I run into FBA all the time on .ca. It is rarer than on .com, I agree there, but barely exists seems inaccurate. What does annoy, are all the reshippers which charge sometimes even 10x more for a product. 4x the price is typical. All

So when it is 21C outside, and 24+C inside is close enough. Two analog temp switches will be far more reliable, easier, and adjustable. (I get the fun with an Arduino, but it is hard to beat century old tech)

Use 'verbatim'. It's a drop down option, and it isn't as good as the old + or other operators (deprecated because of Google Plus). For example, with verbatim you can't only + one single thing in a search. Regardle

I'm not sure he even said that . When I look at the medium article, I see this: And when you have [posts] encrypted, there is no way to know what it is. I personally believe government should not allow those types of lies or fraud or

I've always believed that the pants are almost meaningless, it's the shirts that need to be different daily. So I used to have 8 pairs of pants, 2 colours total. Black and beige. Then, once a year, I'd go buy 2 more pairs o

Pushing instead of pulling the pen, at least that seems part of it in my case. I've seen people write 'top down', but... Regardless, 'how people write' has typically been designed by righties. Fascists. Oh how th

Yes, I know why you posted this, I stated as much. You may note that I added "(I assume)", and then asked "Why else". If people flagging your post as off topic, when it isn't, want to respond? Well, they can. In t

There is nothing wrong with being culturalist, to be so is absolutely not racist. A black, white, etc orphan child raised in communist China, would grow up in the same culture, with the same beliefs. Those that decry 'racist',

I think the more you must guard your words, the things you say, watch how you act, and the more you grow up with this as a child? The more restrictive your thoughts may be as an adult. The less 'free wheeling', and therefore, mor

I'm in Canada, and we have all varieties of this. The 'metal divider, self bag' is a discount / bulk store I go to. Old-style 'casher + bagger' is another. And I've gone to stores with self-checkout, bot

From the article: Mines in the US and Canada were considered a “good” prospect if they could yield ore with 0.03% uranium. At Shinkolobwe, ores typically yielded 65% uranium. The waste pile of rock deemed too poor quality to bother processi

This could be a chicken and egg problem, too. Banks lend on statistics, just as insurance companies have rates based upon the same. And insurance companies, for the most part, can assign rates based upon average accident rates, for ident

Sorry for the late reply. Been Saturday busy... I think what you're missing here, is a bit of tongue in cheek. I, too, did not present my case as universal, yet you took effort to point out it wasn't. Tit for tat, and all that..

by bbarnett 6y ago
I think my point was, your experiences aren't universal. Yet you're still basing your determination upon yours. Take what you will from mine, but even aside from my two bad experiences, I can't imagine how one gets precise

If by "getting used to it", you mean "experiencing the horror", than sure. I tried it, twice. In both cases, produce was picked by either someone that didn't care, or didn't know how to tell if some food (mell

No, they're watching to see if you're worried about whether they're watching to see if you're engaged in hollow virtue-signalling. :P

Yes, but... Now one worries, is this itself a test? Are they judging my desire to donate.

The real problem is, people are deploying dozens of different coding languages, any technology that whimsically passes by, and replacing simple, streamlined monolith technology with 100 micro services. All of this is endlessly pushed by AWS

Unless.... They are sending these seeds to many people in the US, aka PRC supporters. Or even those pressured to do their work. And they simply got the address wrong, a few times out of thousands. Invasive species can destroy an economy.

What a weird assertion, when you link to an article that asserts something entirely different. The above NPR, states that a Karen is a new label, started in the 2010s (which is just last year, even). It also shows how the Karen label is

Amazon does not care, and various reports have shown them actively suggesting it at times. All Amazon cares about is sales. Nothing else.

This seems wrong to me. I very purposefully position my monitor so that my main console window is viewed, with my head level. It is also horizontally centred on the mid-left of that console. This is because most text, eg bash work, vi of f

Unless a 'Karen' can be an elderly aging Asian man, it's sexist, ageish and racist. Here's a few other such terms: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs A lot of these terms link speci
