It was probably less a coincidence and more of SOP. The guards probably have to do rounds at set times (every hour, for example) and then post up somewhere between those times and most likely fall asleep, or do a crossword puzzle or whateve

Is a guard sleeping on duty during a night shift surprising to you? As 542458 said, the level of competency that people assume is hilarious. Prison staff are overworked, underpaid, and have miserable jobs.

They are relevant due to the "people" aspects of projects, as in, the collaborative aspects of the project. I am guessing you are pulling that line from the code of conduct portion of this post. They specifically mention having a

I tried switching to Bluetooth headphones around 2014 to terrible success. The entire pairing process seemed more complicated then necessary. This on it's own isn't great, and it was always a recurring pain if I wanted to repair i

The article doesn't even mention the word 'climate', let alone 'climate change'. There are references to last summer being the hottest on record, which is true, or the effects of the drought, but it's not talki

I don't follow Carlos's work, but looking at his twitter he is very openly gay, so I would find it very difficult to call him a homophobe. Also even outside of this one incident, the nicest way I would ever describe Crowder is a

He was homophobic because he used homophobic slurs, not because he did a mocking impression (which is just childish, and is also a good reason to not take the guy seriously). The guy is a fucking joke.

The bigger problem with GMail is that the mobile app has no controls to manage large amount of emails - not even a basic 'select all'. Which is hilarious, because Inbox was so good because it was easy to manage most of your email

The person you are replying to isn't saying anything about the actual rate of unemployment, but more that while the rate may be low, the actual number of quality jobs that pay well/treat people well isn't reflected in that pe

I think people could argue that modern Blizzard does specifically lean into being diverse or "woke". Overwatch got a lot of praise on it's release for having such a diverse cast and they have continued to lean into that over

When I was nearing graduation and doing interviews, the biggest question that stumped me was a "Where do you see yourself in five years". I was a few months away from finishing my masters, so between that and looking for a job, I

Yikes. I was still using an old yahoo address for some old accounts. Just signed in and you are correct, they wipe the inbox after 12 months! The accounts I use it for aren't important, but I guess I need to migrate them to another ema

I have a Google Home (Google Nest Home now?) in my kitchen and think soli would be a perfect fit for it. Between the noise of my stove and music, sometimes it's really hard to get the device to hear my voice commands. Being able to do

I know you are joking, but I am pretty sure this was a patent Microsoft filed in conjunction with Kinect. I could be wrong about if it was Microsoft or not, but it was definitely about a camera noticing how many people were watching a digit

Youtube is a great source of information from hobbyists on specific topics. There are some bigger productions on there, but the idea of using Youtube as a news source is laughable.

It's so relieving to read this thread. Last year I took over management of some legacy scripts and was tasked with updating them (move from Python2 to 3, interfacing with some new APIs, etc). One of the biggest stresses I had was littl

I have two dogs and love them dearly, but dogs really are a lot of work for their first few years. The first dog we got of this pair was a rescue that was almost a year old. They believe she was on the streets for a lot of her life, and she
