   Under BC Law, it would strike me as a FIPPA violation, but it's a bit more complicated.

   I guess Arthur Andersen (Enron's accountants) is the only one that comes to mind. They were penally convicted and had to fold, if memory serves me right.

   I found it very common here (Canada) for projector setups. I have to carry an adapter with me just in case.

   > Basic math is _really_ important, and not uniformly taught well. Stuff like understanding compound interest would help a _lot_ of people avoid poverty or financial hardship. What's surprising to me is that mathematics education (i

   The Commonwealth is an association of countries, some of which happen to have the same individual as head of state (not all). However for instance Canada has a Queen of Canada who happens to have lots of othe "jobs" too. I think c

   Yeah. It's weird because Lenovo's ThinkPads are at 1.8mm and 1.9mm (X1C and T4XXs respectively) for their integrated keyboards. It's not bad, but I don't think I'd pay money for an external keyboard that barely top

   I think installing an AdBlocker is one of the first things I do when asked to help someone. While I understand and regret the impact on people's business models, it seems to really mitigate issues for those less tech-savy (anecdotally

   If I recall correctly, Oracle's support for JSON is not at the same level as PostgreSQL. By that I mean seamlessly store JSON as a data type like any other. In Oracle JSON is stored as VARCHAR/CLOB and then you implement tests to

   Your personal website come second for me. I wonder whether the person just looked at the first result.

    Wouldn't Crystal fit the bill for a fast compiled language explicitly designed to emulate Ruby's syntax? (I don't have any significant Ruby or Crystal experience, so if there are reasons why that doesn't fit the bill, I&

    I really don't remember any, however they might have just been less prominent.

    Maybe I'm confused, but ranking databases on license revenue will inevitably show that the databases that charge licenses are higher. I mean PostgreSQL is open source, and required no license fee. I'm not sure that license revenue

    Is that necessarily a bad thing though? It would seem to me (non-American) that high school sports news would at most of interest to the parents of those playing, so it doesn't seem feasible for it to obtain wide coverage. Thinking bac

    I feel like the comparison of deaths abroad to total population of the US is a bit disingenuous. Surely, not all 316 millions travelled abroad, or travelled abroad for a significant amount of time, and so on. So comparing this arbitrary rat

    That's more relating to OpenBSD than the other BSDs. FreeBSD was informed during the embargo (someone on another threads said at the behest of Netflix) but in late December.
