Or government pushes them to change. Regulators have tremendous power over banks.

And you have to wonder, what kind of boom in innovation could lots of reasonably priced office space support? What gov policy cold push landlords and banks to accept reality? Vacancy tax? Change to bank regulations?

I’m not sure what to focus on in that site, what did you have in mind? Agg uses like 80% of consumer water. Almost all of this is land that has only been farmed since the Feds build a bunch of water projects starting in the 30s. Most of th

The only water problems are for farmers growing in a semi-arid valley. California has droughts, not water shortages.

But it’s a US company collecting the money from the farmers. If they hold enough trumpcoin they have a pretty good case.

The current agreement relies on the US having an independent privacy regulator (The FTC). But now independent regulators are unconstitutional in the US.

Use envoy or some other reverse proxy and do per-app auth there

I remember at some point Google disallowed more phishing attacks from red teams. Nothing new was being learned. They always work.

Still better to do that same thing (cert based auth) at the application layer instead of the network layer.

A better approach is to train everyone to be polite and helpfully walk the person to reception, who can arrange access.

I’m not sure the use of a common algorithm was the most damming part of that. They also pooled otherwise proprietary information and penalized landlords who failed to follow the “recommendations” You could imagine the exact same scheme wit

Well, you start with an obviously false claim, I did not continue reading.

I imagine many Google people are interested, and they get voted up. You don’t have to read and engage with everything on the front page. And you certainly don’t have to come make snarky criticisms of others.

Oh, sure. But with monthly vesting it kind of a wash.

I could see some of that in 2011 (I started before the ipo), but it was almost all from ads. People in other parts of the company had a very different experience.

That’s not really how RSUs work in that situation. The number outstanding and vested each year stays pretty steady.

The slogan originated in Eng, and was honest at the time, and for many years after. It obviously got promoted by marketing for external consumption as well.

And? I value this as a forum where people can speak plainly and transparently (mostly).

I think it’s quite different. If I loan my license to my friend he could get it confiscated and I could be I trouble. I would certainly not loan it to someone I only know on-line. I don’t see why you can’t have a chip in the ID to perform
