Absolutely the right thing to do, but they only did it after days of headlines of big sponsors pulling out as well as online petitions. I hope this serves as an example to other cities hosting upcoming events. There are a lot of conferences

Thank you for this. Something that confuses me is, why would governments minimize the risk and not take necessary steps to slow the virus? It seems obvious that the short-term economic gains resulting from such an approach are vastly outwe

Upwork has its issues, and it can take a while to find a good gig, but if you have software skills you should definitely be able to find work there.

ever since the beginning of this crisis, countries have been either hiding or underreporting the numbers. lack of adequate testing means that clusters are discovered late, after the virus has had a chance to spread. it's not so much

So a purge isn't sufficient. Any lasting change would require a complete restructuring of the organizations in question.

after much consideration i just recommended vue to a friend who is in a similar situation as yourself. apart from technical aspects, also consider that although there are currently more react jobs, there are also hordes of developers and bo

sure, but those types of ads aren't really for people like you. they are for the vast majority of Windows users who aren't in control of their machine but are instead being controlled by it. many don't even realize they can

I'm fairly language agnostic. What keeps me working in PHP is the Laravel framework, with all of the application plumbing and core functionality built-in and tested for me, so all I have to do is write the code specific to my applicat

"It's not happening in my country" is a naive argument. You might not care if human rights activists and HK protesters are affected. But Apple's actions in China set a precedent for other countries to follow. If a cou

Yes, I wasn't debating a point, just providing a list of exactly how Apple encrypts user data.

Please see "iCloud security overview", it clearly states which iCloud data is encrypted in transit, on server, and end-to-end: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303

i deserve to be downvoted for lack of evidence. and i have a skewed view of things. i have lived in two separate "food deserts" in the rural US in the past three years, where the nearest food sources are either fast food, "

There's nothing wrong with comparisons. I just wonder why we started comparing ourselves with the worst rather than the best .

I find it sad to see this type of argument, increasingly it seems our only justification for the decline of the US is, "At least we're not as bad as X." As in, "Sure companies and the gov sell all our data, but at least
