There is a marketing company that is constantly adding me to new spammy lists they are creating. They are using AWS SES / SendGrid / other reputable providers. The emails all pass SPF/DKIM/DMARC and filing abuse reports

Virtual machines are used extensively by kernel developers but are not an adequate substitute for real hardware in a lot of situations. After all, one of a kernel's jobs is to abstract away differences in underlying hardware.

Just from personal experience, on more than one occasion, I've spent hours on hold with a company getting nowhere, fired off a couple of quick tweets, and the issue has been fixed in 10 minutes. I have about 300 followers. Is it a guar

"0% fees" (apart from the transaction costs, which are significant, and never mind how long it takes the transaction to go through)

That entirely depends on if shopify is still an intermediary in that scenario or not.

Well, this probably doesn't come up very often in general, but one reason for Twitter to want to proceed might be if someone had signed a legally binding agreement to pay 15 billion dollars more than the market rate.

Most of the problem described here is the input mechanism. The building I work in has "destination dispatch" too but instead of a touchscreen, it has a large numeric keypad that you type your floor number on, with physical buttons

Rather than testing these scenarios, couldn't one simply just(tm) not allow deselection in these scenarios?

It sounds like the system is working as intended for the record companies. And also like this might be a situation where a class action could actually be useful.

This is probably the dumbest answer in this entire thread. Firstly, unless the role requires driving for some reason, anti-discrimination laws in many countries will make discrimination based on lack of a license illegal. Secondly, as someo

It's hilarious to me that Copilot is now GA, but our rep GitHub contact has been promising to get us onto the merge queue beta for months and it's still vaporware. I'm beginning to wonder if that product exists at all. https

I mean, sort of? Except, not really, because, "what the market will bear" is determined by what governments can negotiate - there's no Medicare Part D tying their hands.

I'm not sure that "this thing isn't as bad as illegal drugs" is a winning argument. (I'm also not sure it's actually true, either - would depend on what metric you use)

It depends on the timeframe obviously, but $10k is hardly cheap.

Well, one alternative is not to get into that situation in the first place. > Isn't it a lot better to have a single all-hands meeting where you announce layoffs, the people who are affected will be contacted by their manager with s

While this may be true from the perspective of upper management, it is a very shitty way to treat the people who work for you, or would like to.

My employer recently announced it was planning to continue its hybrid approach for the foreseeable future. We grew significantly over 2020-2021, and we now have significantly more employees than desks for them, but no current plans to find

Well, many who think HFT provides a genuine service also have a horse in that race, so I'm not sure that it's wrong to go with your gut on that one.

Or maybe it's just that building a kernel, network stack, etc from scratch, and getting it to the point where it's stable, secure, sufficiently performant, compatible etc, compared to what's already out there is a massive und

It seems crazy to me how often these alert systems are apparently used in the US, for apparently mundane stuff. I've seen it used once while I was in Australia - while we were travelling and there were bushfires nearby - and never here

Fascinating. Where can I read more about how it works?

Indeed, I do sometimes wonder what it'd be like if they made the entire processor out of E cores.

While there might be some edge cases where it's useful, heterogenous cores don't make a tonne of sense in the datacentre, hence why Intel hasn't made Xeon's with that design. It seems to me this falls firmly in the categ
