From my personal experience hiring people, frequent job switchers are much easier to evaluate and tell me a much clearer story about how they will contribute to the company. I know they'll likely leave after 2-3 years and knowing this

Sorry to read this, and my condolences. Everytime Microsoft forces its product upgrades (I'm not talking about security patches) on people and through shady dark UI patterns, it turns thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of peoples

I think it's on HN because one of us thought this article deserved our time. And, after reading it, I agree. You summarized it right: a gut punch, but it felt damn good.

I can only share a personal opinion. Yes, I tend to be defiant when clicking on Medium links. Although I found really interesting authors at the beginning (maybe they were lured or recruited?) the platform has grown enough to attract users

I have five smartphones in my drawer, all in perfect condition except for a battery that won't hold more than two to three hours. I wish I could at least buy battery replacements and change it easily. The other problem is the selling c

I have a shortcut in my browser bookmark bar just for this. I have been writing bash loops for more than 20 years, but only very sporadically (like 2 times per year). For some reason, I cannot remember this structure. P.s. never had this pr

Sorry to ask but...what is an "account" in AWS? From what I read in the comments and the article, it seems to be everything but what I naively consider to be an "account". Could someone come with some analogy please?

So many thing missing in this article. Stock prices reflect the shareholders trust in the company. So the real question should be: why would a shareholder stop trusting a company after a cyberattack? As the author clearly mentioned, it is c

And don't forget to wear earplugs. There's nothing wrong in taking care of yourself as long as you take care of your little ones. It's always been a mystery to me why so many parents endure crying and shouting at full volume

I think the general idea is that you should contribute twice the drinks you consume because not everyone will always play by the rules and this will not necessarily be a bad apple. I can easily imagine myself drinking from that fridge for d

I felt clickbaited after reading the article. It's interesting to read, but if you're actually looking for the answer to the question then it's not in the article.

"one of the most insecure vendors" The way you wrote it makes it sound like most vendors sell secure software but not Samsung, which isn't true at all: all vendors sell insecure software except very few exceptions. The fact t

Reselling (and sometimes even worse: handing them over for free) abandoned groups has been part of Meetup's original business model (or at least for a very long time). I personally avoided this bad situation only by luck, thanks to a f

By just looking at the vast variety of answers in this thread, I think we have a telltale sign of the magnitude of the problem, and the state of denial in which society has evolved. Whether a startup, a small company or a large corporation,

Thank you for your contribution. I am sorry to ask but I have the feeling that something is missing in your comment. You said you have lived in poor areas and observed violence, or did you mean that you witnessed violence only in a subset o

Thanks for the share. I clicked the source cited in the page, it seems to be quite an overkill/invasive method (and dangerous for the person doing the detection), no? It seems to not be accessible to civilians...

In full honesty, I fail to see how crime waves in the USA could be explained by immigration or racial/cultural diversity. From what I understand, it is mostly a consequence of families living through precarious jobs (and poverty), limi

Same here. Spacemonger along with a very old version of Paintshop pro (paid) have been moving around my systems for almost two decades. Everytime I reinstall my computer I verify that I still have these two faithful programs somewhere.

You can't. You can try, but you can't. The only people you'll stop are non-tech users, and the others will shame your business for playing this game. If you need an analogy, think of it as trying to disable screenshots in an

Because the successful trajectory (the survivor trajectory) is being analyzed on the assumption that if its attributes/variables can be reverse engineered, then the sequence can be reproduced by others (i.e., others will survive, too).
