All of the bitcoin bros on Twitter must be gloating.

any proof of this? Every company I've worked for pays lots in taxes.

The police doing their job is different than someone on the Internet making up a call to get someone murdered. The police are not at fault here.

The problem is that the people that do this face no real punishment. At some point, the only way to get it to stop is to take the law into your own hands (if the police are either unable or unwilling to stop it).

The group of people that swatted him should have gotten life in prison. They essentially killed him.

I watched the entire security conference from the Pillow guy. It definitely seemed like something was amiss, but as they say in the security industry: Poc or GTFO.

It's already in progress. I haven't watched mainstream news for years now. Independent podcasts/youtubers have taken their place. You can also usually get breaking news on Twitter/social media now, without ever having

This is good for people that learned how to overcome their issues. However, in my case, I think she is still unhappy, but is so afraid of what others might think of her (she also now has a career), that she has to broadcast to the world th

This reminds me of something similar. I dated a girl back in college who was the most miserable and unhappy person I ever met. But, she would project this niceness and happiness to everyone (She didn't have lots of friends and was alw

They have a bigger bank account and can hold out until you run out of money. I think your efforts are best spend elsewhere.

This will depend on the current use case for your company. Can it save the company money in the long-run? I don't think this can be answered on the language alone.

My point is there is no library available, even with better technology. The use case Apple seems to be pushing is for work and movies.

I will second this. I work for an American company that now routinely outsources to Eastern Europe. Wages are 1/3, most speak English fluently, and the time zone differences aren't really that big of an issue. It's much dif

This is why I don't start a new role without everything in writing. It sounds like management fucked up and HR was running cover because they figured you won't go after them in court.

I've only seen examples of people working or watching movies using the Apple Vision Pro. If this is the only use case, it's not worth the money. I have a Meta quest 2 and I've been using it to work out and play games for a c

I get that they shouldn't be stereotyping, but I frequently travel to Markham, and see lots of young Chinese kids with expensive cars. I think the last time I was there, I counted 40 Teslas.

What would you rather have the prisoners doing besides working? This actually gives them some sort of skillset that can be used when they get out.

Unless this comes with some killer apps and a selection that rivals the meta quest, I don't see many people getting this.

I'm a Millennial and have had a house for 10 years with 3+ bedrooms. The housing market is shit now, but I was hearing the exact same things 10 years ago (too expensive, impossible to get a house, etc) when the market was good. Many p

I was a regular listener until the Spotify deal. Mostly because I hate the Spotify app. I'm glad it's going back to Youtube again. I think it will bring in more listeners.

I use it for security/pentesting, so I don't really need multi-million row datasets.

"You can't copy time the way you can trivially copy bits." It took time to arrange the bits in such a way that you desired to copy them. Copying bits is not stealing. It's worse than stealing, it's counterfeiting.

I use this a lot. Especially for base64 and urlencoding.

To be honest, after what you just described, I like Brando even more.

Would you consider wage theft of an employee by an employer a non-crime? After all, it's just their time and no physical goods are stolen.

yeah. Our marketing department tries to find a use for AI everywhere, mostly to get on the bandwagon. The latest was for a chatbot that 100% needs to give exact information or it could be be a big problem form the company. The idea was sh

I usually love boring code bases, because it generally means it's been used for a long time and the stress level is usually pretty low. Are you only burning out because it's boring? Or other stresses with the job?

How did you find out it was three companies? I don't see how you could possibly give your full attention to one job when working for multiple at the same time. I also wouldn't want an employee accidentally committing proprietary c

I would never rely on a company to allow me to work from home out of the kindness of their heart. I've been consulting for 12 years now and working remotely the whole time. I think I've only ever had to come to the office a hand
