Walmart greeters have built-in facial recognition abilities. I didn’t believe this until one started greeting me by name after a few interactions.

It’s a similar story on mac. There are multiple third party utilities to help snap windows to predefined areas, but it seems like they are fighting the OS.

Google allowed you to request your posts be deindexed. I helped somebody get some particularly embarrassing messages deindexed. It’s been more than a few years, so I forget the process, but I do remember that verifying their authorship was

My experience is similar. We all know what work needs to be done, but instead of just doing it, we end up having to come up with how it aligns to OKRs or KPIs or whatever they’re calling them that quarter.

I’m sorry to question your motives. Somehow I horribly misread the tone of your comment the first time around.

Looking for some 996ers of your own? This might not be the best time and to place to ask about that.

Bad news. In the US, businesses’ God given right to impersonate the government is already being infringed. I ran across this when reading the rules to register a business a few years back. Maybe it was just a state law, but if that’s on the

I don’t think slander charges would work here unless the activists are lying about the scientists. Are there anti-harassment laws that could come into play? Much of the harassment probably crosses jurisdiction boarders, so it may be difficu

It’s fitting for a fake startup generator to use fake ai. Most of these fictional startups would probably be faking their ai as well.

Apparently this was done at least nine months ago based on the issue linked above, so it was a pre-microsoft move.

I like the hackernews tradition of using every dot release as a platform for restating your case against go or whatever happens to be getting a dot release that day. Atom updates are the best for this.

How did they do that? Target them with ads that said “don’t bother voting she’s got it under control”?

I wonder how many people would recognize my name. I’d guess 2,000 tops. Somebody who 800,000 people have heard of seems like a celebrity to me.

I’ve typically ignored crypto related posts, just like you said HN does. Thus I don’t know anything about ethereum other than it involves contracts and blockchains. However I somehow ended up in this thread and your comment about ethereum a

No. The 66% includes tax evaders as well as those who legally don’t need to pay.

I'll go against the other replies and suggest #2. This guy seems determined. I think once he realizes these purses won't fly out of the warehouse he will either buy enough ads to get them sold, drastically lower the price, or both

Am I reading this right that the list in the #Proposals header are the only proposals from the Go2 bucket that are being considered for 1.13? I was hoping "check" would make the cut.

If $GOPATH was your biggest complaint, now may be a good time to give it another look. As of 1.11, there's an experimental feature called go modules that lets you avoid using GOPATH. I believe it's going to be non-experimental s

I’m thankful for automotive safety that saved my daughter’s life when she ran into a traffic light pole at 60MPH yesterday. I’m replying to your comment because her accident was caused by somebody turning left a second or two too early. My

Nobody has dropped out or decided coding isn't for them? It sounds like you found students who really know what they want. How hard was it to find students and what was your selection process like?

GitHub also embraces remote work. About 2/3 of GitHub is remote. I'm not saying move back to GitHub because of that, but it's one of the many things that GitHub and GitLab share in common.

ASP.NET MVC didn’t exist in 2008. Maybe as a preview, but it was hardly a good choice at the time.
