I've seen other comments mention this, but it's really hard to make the case for paying a wage laborer to not show up. Even if he's sick. Can't do janitorial work from home. And such labor is highly fungible: very hig

I would be concerned about dirty needles etc. as much as anything, especially in a place like San Francisco. Junkies can carry God-knows-what, but I can respect you for braving that risk.

Regardless, they're not based in Europe. Unless they do business in the EU, they can't touch them. This is due to the fact that extradition requires something to be a crime in both countries, so unless the EU has assets to seize

Possibly. I have sadly known many teens that made poor choices as much to spite their parents or to "be themselves"/"develop their own identity" as much as anything else. I didn't blame the college, the boys

Perhaps their chances as plumbers are slightly lower. But as businessmen and owners of the 100-person company, they have excellent odds of improving their future. It grew to 100:1 with one owner. In a well-run business, each boy could wo

Not a ding on poetry or art. More the fact that I have heard many accounts of boys giving up the family business to go pursue such things as a career. More seriously, I've also heard of similar situations where the boy majors in manag

That's ridiculous; it's more of a parable than it is "just making these things up". I have, if not in those exact words, heard of such things happening with some regularity. What I wrote is supposed to make the point th

The apocryphal story here is as that of the successful plumber. He works hard, learns his trade, and eventually starts his own plumbing business. This business employs two other plumbers. He also has a wife and three children. As they a

This might be an option, but it's a lot of extra work for only a portion of the users. Only works on Windows 10.

Maybe OP is willing to help. And in any case, it's still useful. What if he's trying to run a FOSS project and doesn't have $500 for a cert? I would say that's different than someone walking around saying "I want

Absolutely agree, though the "reputation" racket remains. The problem with EV (and the reason why Let's Encrypt doesn't provide them for SSL) is that such certificates must be tied to a legal entity.

This looks like an excellent free competitor. Been trying to learn; a tedious process without the fancy tools. Even hopper and binary ninja are very expensive (for a student). Radare2 has been a godsend so far and very helpful, but not a

I think at this point the bridge between Apple and Qualcomm is pretty well burned, especially after all the legal nastiness. I'm wondering if Apple will move some of its chip design talent to fabricating their own modems. It seems th

Hmm, I wonder if this has something to do with Intel's upcoming dGPUs? Not necessarily a bad thing, but having a scenario with lots of code reuse among drivers and a common framework means easier/faster/better support for th

Hmm, interesting thought. This explains why google drive, youtube, etc. can download so quickly with a single connection (especially compared with other services). Thanks for the link.

This really does bug me. The whole "if-you-downvote-me-you're-a-jerk" sorta makes me want to, even if the comment itself has some kind of decent reasoning. With that said, i can also be frustrating when people downvote to i

I wonder, does this support threaded transfer? It really bugs me that so many tools don't, and therefore just leave users waiting around with unused internet bandwidth. Of course, I suppose the design of TCP is part of this. It seems t

Agreed, this would be nice to add. However, it would have been easier if everyone's primary identifier was a number, and a name was just an associated field. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that it was set up this way. Someone corr
