Nope, I've been architecting, creating, and maintaining web apps since 1996 (most recently 12 years at an S&P 500 company), but I can't do live coding interviews to save my life. Nobody will accommodate me in two years of job

The default mode network is so active that there is little bandwidth remaining for processing sensory input.

Similar behavior is happening with hiring. Nobody cares about accomodations anymore because they have been abused. Now people with actual disabilities have a huge uphill battle because even mentioning an accomodation might be requested put

If they don't make their content available legally, then it should go into the public domain. Don't want this to happen to your content? Then don't release it to the public. We need to bring back explicit copyright registrat

My history professor shocked the whole class when he revealed that there was no music, literature, nor paintings before copyright laws were invented.

Public service should come with a permanent loss of financial privacy.

Why should someone have a right to void content? How does that "promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts"?

I wouldn't put it past some Jack Valenti type to arrange some kind of Henrietta Lacks scenario to create indefinite copyright terms.

Nobody can create derivative works from anything that was created while they were alive.

So only the wealthy can afford legal, medical, and financial advice in your hypothetical?

You're using data centers to read and post comments here.

Semantics are very important. Not everyone cares to be precise with their semantics.

I miss the 'assign' feature on the Amiga.

It's so immensely frustrating to be frequently insulted by how little companies are obviously spending on QA these days while being out of a (UX dev) job for two years. Many of these violations of my sanity could be fixed with less tha

Most of them seem to be sped up so it's impossible to understand any speech unless you're all wired up on stimulants.

Out of context, but since you brought up AI, have you considered using AI to generate well-formed sentences on social media? Or do you prefer to burden the reader with the obligation to decipher your vague meaning?

There are at least two words in your comment that do not align semantically with the definitions of those words.

You have no concern for proper semantics. I don't know why OP bothered to respond to you.

Doubleclick actually took over Google. Perhaps not literally, as in on the financial books. But certainly in leadership "values".

Kants Categorical Imperative is a terrible way to model reality. People are too stocastic. It's the same mistake libertarians make when they assume a fully informed and rational society.

This smells like psychological projection.

> if they don't get paid then you don't get content [citation needed] You're saying no content would be created if there were no payments? Have you never met a real artist?

Kant isn't the sole authority on morality.

If I go to the bathroom during an ad break, am I "pirating" the content?

Exactly! ANSI escape codes are old and well defined for all the basic purposes. Pulling in a huge library just to set some colors is like hiring a team of electrical contractors to plug in a single toaster.

by joquarky 11mo ago
Chalk appears to be a great example. I wonder how many devs are pulling in a whole library just to add colors. ANSI escape sequences are as old as dirt and very simple. Just make some consts for each sequence that you intend to use. That&

I changed my thoughts on rewriting after reading this: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2000/04/06/things-you-should-... PS: I just realized this article is older than some of the people here.

Seems like a raspberry pi hidden at a library, restaurant, or anywhere with wifi would thwart this.

My guess is that this data isn't secure even at rest, as the constant flow of data breaches has shown.
