My question was more on legal authority than what actually happened in this particular case. Does the President have the legal authority to just say "this thing is classified", and legally it is so?

I suspect it's the climate and location. pretty much any mid sized great lakes city is the same way. It's ridiculously easy to turn into an alcoholic, especially in the winter.

I see emojis in business emails regularly, and I work in a non tech sector. I don't think this says anything about the JavaScript ecosystem.

If I could eliminate 17% of the bugs in a future code base by choosing to use a different language, I would need a strong reason not to.

Installed Windows 10 Home a few weeks, poked around for 5 minutes searching for an offline option until I gave up. I know it used to be there but they have removed it.

Yes - this is because cubes double as offices for small meetings. For every cube you remove, you also remove a 2 or 3 person office.

Does this include things like Windows ME? Testers didn't do such an amazing job on that one.

The reason you can't hang out in them is because there are never enough rooms... which is really the root of the problem.

But you don't rent by cubicle, you rent by floor or building. So adding a new employee when you have hit your max means you have to figure something out or sink a whole lot of money into a new building for one person.

One thing that helped me get past this feeling was looking around at other desks and realizing that either a. no one cares what you are doing because they are too busy working on their own stuff or b. half the office is watching youtube any

Microsoft has ~ 150,000 employees. I'm not sure why it's interesting that some of those employees put out a subjectively different quality product than others.

I'm back on Linux again after years on Windows 10. It is far far better than in the past but still full of small annoyances. For example, there are two settings for mouse sensitivity (acceleration speed and acceleration delay) but neit

It's interesting to see the luke warm reaction to this and compare it to 10? years ago. Just the mention of Google moving into a new space back then seemed like a good send. Now... Not so much

I'm not sure where your confusion comes from. I have a tablet from 2013. It works very well but the battery has worn out. I now have to throw it away because I can't replace the battery.

I've often felt that antivirus software is like the rock that keeps the tigers away. I haven't used it since the AOL days, and that's also the last time I was actually hit with Malware (something from Kazaa I would guess.) It

I really don't understand how a law enforcement agency is supposed to prevent fraud on Amazon, especially one constrained by national borders, when Amazon is a global platform. In what way do you propose a third party (not Amazon) redu
