Indeed an open source browser that anyone can bot doesn't mix well with the idea of paying people to just watch something... crypto currencies work because they don't rely on trust. This is precisely the opposite of that. The whol

But ultimately isn't the first choice for most Python projects to date. So many scripts have python paths expecting python 2 hardcoded and pretty much everything that wants python3 calls python3. I'm firmly against this for compat

Don't downplay the significance of small jobs though - investing a few hours in housework, server configuration or refactoring can all pay off hugely in my experience.

Well, have a look at United States v. Kane, it basically indicates that if you don't exceed authorized access you're in the clear. It's hard to say that posting a cryptographic signature to a network design to accept them fro

Yeah, the only way to use this privately would be to run it on your own server. Pushing some sort of self-hosted enterprise version or even appliance might be a good idea.

Sort of - LinkedIn may combine things from different employers or seeking of a new employer, which your current employer may not at all approve of. So you can't really apply workplace rules to it directly.

Yeah, I know about that, but that's still longer and more annoying than the old way. Maybe I should just make my own library that just modifies strings and byte arrays and adds a few things for the common binary operations I do.

The problem I see here is that your definition of counterproductive might not match mine. Maybe I think punishment is important for moral reasons so longer prison sentences are something I favor. That's not exactly a logic level issue,
