I sort of disagree that a hobby can’t be doing the same thing over and over. I know because it sure is for me. I was diagnosed with ADHD around 36 when I had my first child and simultaneously was getting in to higher management, never befor

I don’t disagree with you but in Danish culture you get a degree or you work as unskilled labour in 99% of the cases. Even if you don’t “need” a degree you still get one because it would be a serious handicap if you didn’t and our education

Recruiters are non-technical in every business though, why would we need special recruiters for programmers when we don’t need special recruiters for neurosurgeons?

The demand for programmers is largely becoming a myth in my experiences. I work in public sector digitalisation in Denmark and as such come into contact with a lot of private sector companies from whom we buy development, I also work as an

This isn’t my experience at all, but I suppose it depends on how you build your applications. I used to be of your opinion, before we moved more and more of our code based from .Net to Python an I was a linq junkie, but these days I think y

Do people join onlyfans and then find models? I always assumed most of the marketing took place on other platforms like Instagram. My YouTube thing may be broken from the amount or miniature painting videos I watch, but I rarely get a sugge

Does that solve the issue though? If you’re trafficking human beings you could probably use their old ID to sign them up and then still commit the crime afterwards.

What prevents abuse after posting a valid ID? Unless you’re paying for the images on Facebook the transfer isn’t being used to pay for illegal sex. This is the difference between the two in terms of liability.

No idea, I just know about it because I work in the public sector of Denmark where we build our national digital identity system in corporation with banks, and we had a notice of changing terms some time back. I didn’t get too into it becau

America’s drones have made children afraid of blue skies in more than 7 countries over the course of the past two decades. I’m not sure anyone really knows why or what has been achieved by it.

Platforms like onlyfans sell two products. They sell safe/clean sex work to a variety of people who would never get into regular sex work. And they sell the feeling of mattering and a sense of human connection to people who suffer from

There are US laws that I can’t remember the names of which make financial institutions legally responsible (probably bad English) for crimes that happen on platforms they sell their services to. So VISA could be fined for any trafficking th

I think this article raises a lot of good points about the weekend prototype, but I also think there is some merit in the question of “what do all those people do?”. I’ve worked in digitalisation in the public sector of Denmark for quite so

I wonder why Facebook is so afraid of transparency. I’d like to start by saying that I actually like using Facebook in 2021. I’m Danish and I’m on Facebook solely because I play Blood Bowl and Facebook is where the majority of the community

I totally get that it was my own fault, hence the “not bothering to read the rules) part, and I also very much regret the language I ended up using in some of the communication at the time. Looking back on it now it’s sort of hilarious thou

Because it’s a short sighted solution not to make it easier and to build consensus. The real threat to programmers isn’t going to come from easier tools it’s going to come from the failures of programmers and the ability for large companies

Which is great, but what we need is campaign wise transparency. Facebook is actually ahead of its competition in that you can see things like advertising spending, as an example I can see how much each Danish political party spend on Facebo

As ridiculous as your comment is, there has been less than 100000 people to move to the US from Denmark since our advertising laws were passed, around 70000 of them have either returned, changed citizenship or are dead. No one surveyed by G
