I think you're onto something. This is a valid way of interpreting what happened. I can't help but feel though that the OP is... not very good, and they haven't had very good interactions on some other posts, but also I get t

Sounds like it'd be great on Audible but it's not there. Shame.

Yeah. Also I'd rather not give Google my money. If something goes wrong I don't like my chances of getting it back. At least with O'Reilly you could talk to a human.

They are my main source for PDF DRM free books (I don't care about stamping my name as long as it can be read anywhere). If they stop selling then they lose 100% of my business which is about $100 a year. I don't use other formats

That's pretty cool, I didn't know of this functionality. Is there a good resource on how to look it up?

Windows update applies CPU patches?! I know they did AMT but that was a special case and different.

It would be nice if they allowed users to update rather than vendors. I have a mobile Xeon. I don't know if it's affected or not.

It's so hard to imagine how this kind of thing goes on. I've worked in small and large companies in Australia and (in those places) nobody could get away with messing with female staff. So it drives me crazy to hear people getting

I read it a few times and still don't understand how you can get like the 4k of private key data or whatever it is out of a radio signal - and they don't even mention keys they're talking about the algorithm itself. Totally d

I love this movie. I don't want to spoil anything but I wish it was happier.

I'm not sure what solution you're suggesting. Can you please rephrase?

I know how you feel. I'm currently technically doing a 37.5 hour week - but it FEELS like a LOT more and it's killing me. A lot of those hours are at odd times and I seem to work more and then take it up in time in lieu but it&#x2

All I read was the article, "How I started my own company 30 years ago during the computer boom". I'm eagerly awaiting part 2 which is how this is even remotely relevant today when programming isn't a secret skill anymor

It's impossible to happen from offshoring because there are contracts in place to prevent it! (cheeky grin)

What if their information was all secretly being leaked to intelligence agencies and there was no way to ever let them know except to burn everything? There's probably excuses and justifications. I personally wouldn't do it and th

If they leave the company, their access might be left running for a while in case they're asked to come back on and fix something during that post handover period. Or maybe they had backups running under their account and when their ac

I'm always surprised when I read this. How long do patents last? I'd always thought they were indefinite or like copyright.

How is it a collapse for the Tories when they still have 48.5% of the vote? It seems pretty good to me - though I'm not familiar with English politics. (Serious Q not attacking)

What are your LTE costs per GB? It hasn't caught on in Australia; you pay about $30AUD a month for about 5GB of total data traffic. If you have 5 devices you usually can't share it either so you either have to swap a lot of SIMs o

"Cash-strapped", looking for a $560k house, and burning up to $1.1m over the next few years - which friends and relatives lent them. The level of privilege fucking burns.

From what I've heard from people running LTSB it's absolutely awful. Driver support is abysmal and lots of desired Windows features don't exist on it. There's apparently some new LTSB on its way but this aside it is not

What is "CFG"? Edit: Control Flow Guard. So software which is compiled with this specific flag in VS 2015+ isn't affected. That seems vague and unlikely to be very common.

I googled and Wikipedia said Ethylene glycol is also toxic to people and animals. So like yeah it must have to go through some other process after the worms eat it. It sounds like it'll get really complicated.
