Of course understanding that this is Canada: I don't recommend this kind of approach. It might solve the immediate problem but, does not address the cause. Having police visibility during "peak" times will resolve the issue o

I'm in complete agreement here. Their response is appropriate given the challenges that they face. No team ever thinks they are going to get that kind of migration to their platform the way zoom has received. Good for them.

We are all always learning. I am all over the place from java, shell, awk, python, and now I'm playing with Go and I kind of like it but can't find the time to actually make something useful so I can learn from it.

I remember writing one of my first parsers was for a pdf and I had to employ a similar methodology where I had to rely on regex and "positionally-aware fixed-length" formatting rules. I would literally chunk specific groups by the

I can cosign on this methodology. I used to work in an organization that used to build pdfs for accounting and licensing documentation. I used a proprietary tool (Planetpress :( ) to generate the documents using metadata from a separate inp

I understand why they pulled their products from this service. However, the problem I see with this is if they use the same pricing scheme as Google Stadia, most people will have to pay full retail for games that are fairly old that they al

Seconded. Based on my previous jobs working in retail fraud, most retailers are able to track and cancel gift cards when they can confirm them.

I agree with your post. I had the same problem where match was harder for me to comprehend. It wasn't until I started programming that I started to understand the concept you cite (Functions.).

I'm sure no one has asked for this(Please don't judge me.). But I would be willing to drop 25 bucks on this not 49 as that is way too high.

Same. I saw way more movies than I normally would. I use AMCs service now which is pretty good as well. But you can't beat 10 dollars.

I see your point regarding spaces in names. Suppose I could use FILENAME. But I think my point was made.

In my defense I did this fairly quickly (Which was the point.) and was not trying to illustrate proper syntax (I mean it does run and does produces an output.). ls -l | awk '{print $9 "\t" $5}' That is about as much as i

Right. I don't consider that particular exhaustive at all and this has helped me when I wanted to do quick searches.

Because syntatically as a language/tool it is super easy to remember. Writing one liners with awk feels more intuitive to me. Awk example: ls -l | awk '{print $9, $5}' or ls -lh | awk '{print $9, $5}' Seems a whole

I agree with the above. Try to impact the culture from the ground up. In the meantime try working on new things and share those things with your colleagues who are otherwise not very interested in the job. If the pay is substantial you shou

I thought that was a bit odd. If it was for the author's own rationalization and is not trying to convince the audience of a any kind of point, then why is the author publishing this publically? Why can't the author write this out

I agree, there should be a legislative intervention here. These devices come out semi-regularly with no regard to security.

Link doesn't work for me. Interested in any correlation between airpod use and making more money than Spotify, Twitter, Snapchat, and Shopify combined.... why does that even matter in this case? Do airpods read twitter feeds to you :D

Well you have the option of not signing in with your facebook account. Good thing about this market is that there are other options out there and presumably more coming in the future.

You're not wrong. They should have focused those monies on building the actual product first and then shipping it. At that point, once the kickstarter units are built and shipped, grow your business accordingly. To have nothing to show
