Let me preface this by saying I think what she posted is true, employees have a right to unionize. That said, it seems kind of strange, if this was a better way to post something than the cafeteria, that she added it to the union buster&#x2

This is pretty standard. Google Groups bans me whenever I open too many tabs at once. It's annoying, but these big corps don't have any inclination to support user behavior other than standard, especially when closing down a produ

She likely wasn't using separate work and personal profiles. That's a fairly new innovation. I've been using Android since the first public device was sold and only started doing it with the Samsung S10 5G. Most people just a

Actually, they do try to match you on attractiveness. Also how much you swipe. If you swipe to like every profile you get different results.

Personally, it seems to fill a niche I'm in. I don't have any high graphics quality gaming systems. The closest I have is: a 5 year old macbook, a Switch, a Quest. Stadia would let me play some of the hi-fi titles out there withou

I went through something similar when an ex went wild with my credit cards. You can actually call the credit card company and tell them to block all purchases from a specified merchant. So I had to block all Amazon and Uber purchases. Just

I've noticed that at my current company as well. There's one reviewer who puts a comment forcing someone to come meet with him every PR, often the comment shows he hasn't even read the description, let alone the code. It&#x27

Hmm, the time on the Twitter post says 1:07PM. The earnings call was 2PM. But I've noticed the Snap investor site always has the presentation put up a bit before the call, like an hour or so. I've read the presentation before the

Doesn't help that the article is written in a kind of exaggerated, fear mongering way. E.g.: " 5G also employs new technologies (e.g., active antennas capable of beam-forming; phased arrays; massive inputs and outputs, known as MI

IME the US profs like to assign problems from the book and follow the chapters pretty closely. So editions often had reworked problems or fixed typos. On rare occasions a professor was kind enough to let people using older editions know the

I found the narrative very useful. For example, she asserts that rape and prostitution feel very different, and that American laws (compared to UN ones) consider them similar in that there can be no consent in either case. But if she had ju

Seems legit to me. Kids can go from 25 cents to 50 cents quite easy by selling a second lemonade. The needle is much tougher to move with bigger costs and bigger amounts.

We actually have to write boolean checks like that in Kotlin nowadays in modern Android development. If your variable type is Boolean? instead of Boolean, it is needed to both check if it is non-null and true.

Considering this study probably involved slicing open hundreds of rat heads, I think us humans being interested in neurons more now vs. 50 years ago, has only made things worse for them. Although 50 years ago they likely suffered more amput

That does sort of happen to those of us who need learn both traditional and simplified. If you learn traditional, you have a better chance of being able to read simplified with a little more effort than the other way around.

Gotta wonder why Facebook doesn't just buy one of the popular social VR apps like VR Chat.

Yeah, this part: " We have implemented a system taking a wholly different approach that we call “slim binaries.” The object files in our system do not really contain native code for any particular processor at all, but a highly compact

You can tell the app where you want to end up after doing a bunch of trips, so the driver could just set his overall endpoint back to O'Hare and Lyft would try to give him rides going that way.

Last article I read said the mainland had a 99% conviction rate. Anyone going over there isn't getting a fair trial. They'll just be canned and counted as some official's crime fighting spree no matter if they did it or not o

Article said they looked up the default combos previously, so they must know the brand and model. That's probably all that's needed to lookup the wiggle room.

That's how they treated developers too, though. For Facebook, they give you an API where you can post generic things. For updating my apps to Google Plus, I found they forced you to only use certain verbs, and ignored requests to add m

Does it say she made herself look older? Investors generally prefer younger AFAICT. It's assumed if someone is 42 and not successful yet, they never will be, but someone 20 has a chance and will be more in touch with modern technology.

I've heard security management say it is their job to say no all day. They definitely don't care about preventing work getting done. They will only get fired if a data leak occurs, etc.. Preventing work won't even ding their

I find 256GB fine for writing apps. I think more space would be a waste compared to a faster processor to speed up my compile times. If I had infinite money I'd probably put any additional space on extra drives as a RAID array to help

I have to agree with him. I had to fix an app for a Huawei Honor 8x phone the other day. As the phone doesn't have Google Play Services and doesn't offer it in the app store - it's a huge pain using it. Enthusiasts can someti
