Excuse denied You do not need any "meshing" to know that work requires work authorization. It has been the case since before most current DMV workers were born!

Not recognizing that the same mistake made 17,000 times “by accident” over a few years is likely not accidental is also not a great strategy for getting mistakes fixed Every one of those required an I-9 check. This means somebody changed th

Yeah. I worked (past tense) there so guess I’m forever not allowed to disagree with Apple? But I also worked at Google, so that too. Man… I’m screwed on so many topics then…

It is so rare and nice to see such clear defense of free speech, with full admission that it is precisely the unpopular speech that needs it. The ACLU used to do this ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Pa

If it doesn’t revolve around her, why should revolve it around you? Why do you think your view is somehow better? I admit we have a disagreement, but you have not presented a reason why your view is more correct. Also “shill”? I don’t work

As an iOS user, I love this and you are free to hate me for it. It keeps my grandma safer from scams. This is why I bought her an iPhone. I don't want to hear any of the usual "don't use sideloading if you don't like it&
