If you happen to review few places on Google Map you are holding superpowers. Idk if that works for new accounts too. But yeah, at least if you do some activity then you report a place as closed, they are "checking" it for 1h, the

I'm not an expert but Dosbox can be run in browser. I've seen entire oses in browser too, but that would be too much CPU to waste. Anyway, if your game is dos based that could help you.

And who says it? A site that first try to trick me into letting them sell my data for ads, then displays up to 8 ads at the same time on a screen (there are more if I scroll), then wants to install a constant advertising script into my comp

Is the algorithm known to produce all theoretically possible hash values? Imagine a simple algorithm that should hash a string to a number 0-3, but due to an extra condition it actually cannot produce "3", pseudocode: ``` Sum = su

Almost nobody cares about the value to the user anymore. Value to the owner/seller of the product is what matters. This results in poor UX, apps spying you constantly, useless features and easy to fix bugfixes that aren't fixed in

I like the just talking approach. The best jobs I had when the interview was just talk. But on the other hand so many people totally lie about their experience I can't believe it. People tend to have misleading cvs and overexaggerate t

AI only wasted my time. It cannot really solve anything beyond basic StackOverflow questions and it even fails on super simple questions too. So I wasted hours to discover the fact. I work as long as I want in theory, but I try to work 8hr&

Long vacations aren't helping much with burnout and depression related - that's what I read just today and I totally agree. I'm fighting this thing for years. If you can lower your hours/day AND if you can take few days

I used to work for a while with blind people. The boss of the local blind people community was shooting dad-like jokes about blindness all the time, I loved that attitude! It helped to make connection with these people and we needed that, b

Removing comments from exising conversations if they don't contain sensitive data is rude IMO. Somebody may want to read the conversation in the future and now they will experience missing comments

Google. Only searchpage.com is close to Google for actually returning me something I look for, but I'm just used to Google so I continue to use it. Ads are hidden for me, so I just get the results and usually when I cannot find somethi

I was shocked few years ago to discover my e-mail was set in my profile to be publicly visible. Just in case verify it's not the same with your phone number.

It won't work anyway, content is spread around so quickly by people that you don't have much control over it anyway. Something you mention you want to keep away from AI will be copied to a place where AI is allowed and your work w

never seen that before. It seems nice, I may use it some day. It doesn't solve my Lua issue unfortunately - I need several versions of lua - and fengari seems to implement lua 5.3. Also the lua thing is just an example. I had many of s

Such website would surely require a good terms of service and some kind of moderation to avoid any shady events from happening. HackHands was acquired, I will take a look at what PluralSight is about, but it's not definitely a QA websi

I may be wrong but I think finding a person for micro consulting should be quite easy even now. And for LUA issue and why I think it's easy thing to do. I found at least few solutions for running Lua VM in a browser with emscripten. I
