Oh, I’m certainly not endorsing the arrest of the judge. But wouldn’t the bailiff hold the person? Is it typical for the FBI to lose a suspect in this manner? If so, this seems dysfunctional as if someone is in the court system then jurisdi

ICE works on “administrative warrants” that are different than “judicial warrants” [0] I didn’t know the difference until today when I was reading about the case. I think the difference is the ice warrants are like detention orders and are

I thought they were misdemeanor crimes [0] punishable by jail time. So they are crimes, but not huge. I’m not a lawyer or a law enforcement officer, but I thought that local law enforcement can certainly hold someone charged with a federal

ICE does issue warrants [0]. Some immigration matters are criminal. There are specific immigration law enforcement officers that execute warrants. Maybe what you mean is that ICE warrants grant different authorities than an arrest warrant (

I don’t know. It seems pretty unusual. Imagine that someone is being charged with shoplifting and literally at trial. Some other law enforcement agency shows up to the trial and wants to arrest them for jaywalking. It seems dysfunctional th

Did you try asking ChatGPT? Snark aside, it sounds like your CEO doesn’t trust you. CharGPT can generate a report for you showing benefits. Or you can pay McKinsey a few hundred grand (if you’re lucky).

It matters when monopoly forces increase the cost to publishers and thus harms them. It can be great compared to next best and they are still harmed by illegal practices that make it worse off.

I think some problems are made worse with more money. For example, having enough staff to review messages manually and process things manually needs more funding to scale. Automating processes takes fewer people so there’s resistance to “au

Before DOGE it was USDS and they had lots of gs-15s. Especially back when they would just straight up match private sector salaries. In my org (10000+), over the past 5+ years we’ve hired maybe 20-30 15s and 14s who are non-supervisory engi

Senior devs are usually gs-15, step 10 which is about $195k in DC I don’t think it’s the money, I think it’s the mindset. There’s more project managers than actual hands on engineers.

Surfacing the error immediately means customers not buying your stuff. Or people not seeing your site. Personally, I’d rather have some functionality than none. When you have a really diverse audience with high stakes, being accommodating i

That seems to be the disagreement. But saying someone desecrated a grave is a pretty serious accusation. That’s quite different from accidentally digging up a grave that no one knew was a grave.

Plex is a fork of xbmc/kodi. Did they pay those developers? We all have bills to pay. Upping prices because I want more money isn’t a very understandable reason. It’s not like we have any visibility into Plex’s costs. So it’s just as l

Desecrating graves seems pretty objectively provable and serious, if proven true. I think lots of defamation cases come down to subjectivity, thus the court systems and judges and whatnot. I don’t think society would benefit from “it’s just

I’ve actually never met anyone who pays for their healthcare who likes it. Over the years I’ve used United, Aetna, KP, BCBS and didn’t like any of them. I switch when I can.
