> Most of us pay a premium for "security checks" with a bunch of microprinting and other bullshit. That's utterly useless once you push it through a cellphone cam! If I recall correctly, you can order checks from a check p

Congress could place statutory limits in this behavior, it doesn't have to come from the courts.

Sometimes a function's input or return type can vary depending on the execution path? Also, inserting print statements is often not practical when working on web backend software which is kind of a big thing nowadays. If you can run th

I definitely didn't expect something called an "AIX workstation" to have been released in 2006.

I agree, although I've found that correct and comprehensive use of the doctoring for this purpose has not existed in the environments I've worked in, or the open source codebases I have needed to understand. Something about type h

Yeah that ship sailed some time before they added a third way to do templated string interpolation.

I like Python a lot, and have been using it for personal projects since about 2010. It was only once I started working and encountering long-lived unfamiliar Python codebases regularly that I understood the benefits of type hints. It's

To OP: The term for these is "screen readers". NVDA seems pretty popular these days, and some people find it easier to learn. However if you need expensive software like JAWS and live in the US, your employer is probably required

As someone who has been to Cracker Barrel many times I find it hard to believe there was such strong affection for the logo. The logo is the least distinctive or memorable thing about Cracker Barrel's restaurant design.

I think the boldness is a combination of 1) marketing to governments and organizations around the world and 2) knowing there will be no consequences either domestic or international for what they do.

I only use YouTube in a mobile browser with uBlock Origin turned on, so I never see any ads. Highly recommended by the way. Clearly YouTube is a terrible business model and has zero revenue potential.

I wish there were some clause in the US constitution that broadly and expressly prohibited this kind of thing.

I'm not sure? Perhaps the shocks are different, or the seats are just harder, or perhaps I'm imagining it.

As someone who has never shoplifted in my life, this makes me deeply uncomfortable. If it's acceptable for a business to use drones to tail a (suspected) shoplifter, what stops a business from using them to tail a regular customer to c

I use my passport to verify my right to work in the US during the first week of my job, and then I don't bring it any other time. So unless you're changing jobs very frequently it shouldn't be necessary to carry all the time.

Our buses are also less comfortable and "rattle" more that busses I've ridden in many other first world countries. I'm not sure if this is an economics thing but the standard New Flyer buses feel a bit dated.

You just ignored the fact that the people Israel rounds up haven't been charged with a crime, let alone convicted. Israel rounded up 1500 people this month simply because they were Palestinian and live in a particular village. https:&

Why do you use the term "completely innocent teenagers" only for Israelis? Are Palestinians teenagers guilty because of their ethnicity? Why do you ignore the many, many documented instances of torture in Israeli prisons, and the

This is great! Which aspects of this are Canada specific? Would it be technically practical to expand it to other TLDs?

You seem to be unaware of all the Palestinian hostages Israel has been taking for decades. Thousands of people locked up without trial or charges, many of them children. Please educate yourself.

It's vague on purpose. Just like MS13 or Tren de Aragua, it can be whatever they want it to be.
