And after they downloaded your secured file, they probably sent them between themselves over e-mail. This is why laws like the GDPR are needed.

Apple has been sued multiple times in the EU because of onerous warranty practices and lost. Obviously their working warranty doesn't work so great. There's at least one website tracking GDPR fines. It's gonna take a while gi

If everybody were such a pessimist, we'd never try to improve anything because there's a risk it might not always work or need adjustment in the future. And a certain someone would also be there telling everyone not to go outside

If you're in the EU, maybe you can sue Google? I read about a case of (I think it was) a hair salon owner where Facebook automatically created a Facebook business page for them. They sued and they were forced to delete it.

I've been trying to say for quite a while now that it doesn't matter why something/someone is not present where they should be, if the consequence is people will die. How hard can it be to understand that? :) Those people a

You can get a washing machine for 400, but it's low end, not a Miele.

Not true at all. High end Symbian phones were rock solid. One just has to use quality materials.

It's ok if things are more expensive, as long as they can be repaired and last longer. That's the whole point... stopping waste.

Berlin's a big city and I bet most people don't care about start-ups or expats. Don't confuse what some politicians and companies are saying with the broad opinions of the entire population of Berlin. Now that we got the alle

Insiders almost always have more rights than outsiders. Berlin has more than enough people living there, they don't need the outsiders and its within their rights to discourage them from moving in. But this isn't even doing that

This is one more of those "software engineer tries to apply algorithmic thinking to law and gets ridiculous results" situations. If you continue to be patient and repeat that humanity doesn't function according to algorithms,

Supporting pushing them out while not offering any solution besides saying they have "a claim to some kind of housing" is essentially supporting throwing them out on the street in their 70s period.

Because they lived there half if not all their lives and want to continue to live there. It's as easy as that and it's a legitimate reason. In the end, the Senate of Berlin is looking out at least in theory for the people of Berli

In complex systems accidents do not tell the whole story, one has to also look at incidents and the "safety culture" of the organization (i.e. ~ how they avoid failure and how they react to failure). Aviation for example has The A

Yes, and if someone were to wait for you and need you outside the UK you would not be there for them. Just like the vaccine.

I was referring to tech interviews in general, not a specific company. Interviewing's like dating: if you do all the right things you may still not charm the person you want, but the odds are very good that you will be able to find a g

But this is what people are objecting to, isn't it? That anyone reasonably clever which spends months studying CTCI, EPI and Pramp and whatever else and doing mock interviews will pass the interview, while an experienced programmer w

Sounds nice and awfully convenient for those supporting the current interviewing practices. But does this apply to all experienced engineers, 50%, 5% ? US only, Europe, Russia, India? We need better proof and better data than a 2006 blog po

It's not exactly rocket science to figure out that people crying are unhappy about something and need comforting. Later, babies learn to fake crying, but when they're really small it is a really good idea to check on them.

There's the extinction method which is the most hardcore and there's also the Ferber method which has the parent periodically check in with the baby. Extinction is extreme, as one is basically abandoning the child to cry. They&#x2

Human beings are able to move past the narrow meaning of specific words and look at the bigger picture, which is that vaccines are neither leaving the UK, nor reaching other countries. This is the measure that will be used to judge the UK.

The UK is currently not exporting vaccines and there are no countries which are receiving vaccines from the UK. This is what OP claimed and there is only one argument that can be made against that: a list of countries where the UK or the

That's literally apples and vaccines. In the future you might as well not bother with such pointless digressions. Back on topic: recently read on CNN that the UK contract's exactly the same as the EU one (best effort) and it was s

To give one example: building has become very expensive because of all sorts of regulation, climate-support actions, etc. Taxes are so heavy in Germany, it makes more sense to not work under a certain income limit than have a small side-bus
