Wow. How did he get that in writing? Was it his initiative, or came with the position by default?

To be clear, I'd be fine with a shared office situation with up to 3~4 office mates. But the open offices as discussed here are abominations. Maybe it does seem anti-social of me? I guess I didn't consider that aspect of it. It

That's pretty much in line with my thinking. I want them to at least consider the fact that they agreed to something else that's in writing when they do office re-arrangements. And if they decide that I'm no longer worth an

Twice in my life I've been given an office upon joining a company later to be relocated to an open office, which I hate. After the second relocation, I thought that the next job I take I will try to negotiate upfront for an office in

I know a couple who did this. The loan outlived the marriage.

If you are accepting stock options for part of your compensation (and you actually care about what the value of those might be), it's important. Otherwise, no.

I'm not so sure about that. Hire time on a botnet so you have lots of IPs and start trying mixed usernames with mixed passwords. You won't have any choice over which username you eventually break in with, but I don't think

I don't think the analogy to email quite works. Telecom companies currently charge money to customers based on usage.

Am I being a pedant if I think this algorithm has been misnamed for the purposes of PR? It just looks like constraint satisfaction. What's quantum about this? There's no constructive/destructive interference, which to my m

You are not entitled to Slack's infrastructure, no matter how much you came to depend on it for your day-to-day life.

I guess there’s a chance those facts are related.

You share (about) 1/128 of your genes with a third cousin. The chance of any (particular) recessive trait being passed on from both parents as a result of the inbreeding is a whopping 1 in 65,536.

There’s nothing more “me” than my brain. I expect sufficiently advanced science to be able to narrow down my identity from a detailed enough scan of my brain. Whether this can be done today is a question of technology, and I’m not abreast

Does it need a replacement? Newegg still sells a wide selection of genuine parts at reasonable prices.

The patent troll-fighting heroes have moved on from Newegg. It’s owned by different people now.

Maybe so, but autism isn’t mentioned on the wiki page on Cluster B you linked to.

Is it possible to use a firewall (pfsense or similar) to block all access to the Windows update and telemetry servers? Or will Windows just stop working after thinking it’s offline long enough?

by spacehome 8y ago
I realize it's not a great option for lots of people, but the optimal solution is to choose a phone number with an area code far away from where you will ever have any legitimate contacts, and block everything from that area code.

This is too well known to be useful anymore.

It's not a joke to Valve.

It's given away by your eye saccades. /sarcasm (for now)

I'm pretty sure this is exactly Valve's planned impact. Like everybody else who builds atop another's platform, I think they're nervous that Microsoft could decimate their business on a whim.

Unfortunately, it looks like we're wired for mobs, too. Participants in mobs act very differently and self-report afterwards that the subjective experience is an altered state. It sounds like echos of an evolutionary history that had

Thanks, but I was really asking my question about Snips.

This looks neat! Is it possible to get started without creating an account on your website? I couldn't figure out how, but I figured there must be a way if it's "100% on-device".

I'm not sure why you believe this. Every discussion of PR's tax scheme, the issue of 183 days comes up. Even people with a passing interest are aware of this requirement. Sure, you can lie about it and hope you're not audi

I think this possibility (inevitability?) is seen pretty clearly by the rich people who move to Puerto Rico. They know the party isn't going to last forever. But, these are the same people who uprooted their lives to spend 183 days p
