In Canada lockers are essential to hold all your outdoor clothes. Yes books but it's mostly filled with your jacket and gloves and stuff and possibly boots. No one wants to be walking around in a parka all day indoors.

The most annoying aspect of Git is how hard it makes life when you have a few local changes you just don't care about at all. It is WAY too hard in Git to just blow away local changes. Something that should be 1 command is many stages of hell & more often than not results in this

So.. what about the post is wrong?
Musk founded Zip2 in 1995. This is what they did.
I mean, I don't PERSONALLY KNOW if their CGI was written in C but it's NOT AT ALL unlikely given the time period. Apache didn't even exist. Almost every dynamic web service was custom CGI.

Most of your insurance money goes to pay toward liability to the other car and personal injury.
Your insurance company doesn't care about $20K vs $30K on your car when they need to pay a $200K medical bill.

You are falling for the same fallacy many do when they do this math - they forget to include their rent in the calculation.
If you include *your own rent*, as well as the appreciation on the property, owning your home *always* comes out ahead of renting.
The calculus should be simple - if owning property was a bad deal, then no one would ever be landlords. The fact that landlords exist at all should be all you need to know that your analysis is wrong.

This has nothing to do with CAN bus. It is the 48V that lets them reduce the amount of copper in the wiring. Other mfrs. have had a difficult time moving to 48V because of how many third-party parts they use. Tesla in-house builds much of their stuff so the move was easier.

It's always strange to me to see how many people don't seem to know how big companies operate.
The fact LinkedIn has 12K employees or billions in revenue is not relevant whatsoever, because Emma is line manager of a 10 person autonomous team with a mostly fixed budget, and likely only has a $250ish a month discretionary spend fund that she already has mostly exhausted.
She also knows she will have to spend 3+ months getting internal approvals from the CIO and BISO and CISO offices to use your tool. That's more work on her end than it will be on you, trust me.
And if she succeeds, your tool will then be exposed to all of the other autonomous development teams at that company. Many of whom might also try you out, because now that she did all the hard work to get those approvals it is easier for them to try.
And then if you're lucky, after a year or two of these autonomous teams using it, maybe enough teams end up using it that the enterprise decides to negotiate a company wide license.
This is how you enter an enterprise. Slow and steady, with internal champions, over a period of time.
Or, say no. It's your company.

Supply chain interception
You're welcome. I will sit and wait for my apology over here.
An exploding pager caught on CCTV.
This is not a shorted LiIon battery.
I suspect they swapped out batteries for custom made battery + explosive (so it wouldn’t be obvious) plus new firmware in a supply chain attack.

There is nothing wrong with congress getting a raise. The problem is the process. Congress should not vote in their own raise because that's what causes the problem. Law should be changed such that, a congress can vote in a raise *only for the next congress*, or even more ideally, it should just be indexed to inflation, period.

TPM does not improve Windows Hello, does not improve BitLocker, does not improve Defender, Memory Integrity Protection, Core Isolation... the main use case for TPM is still DRM and Secure Boot, and I hate "Secure Boot" as it's misnamed and decieving. Should be called "Monopoly protection boot".

It's not easy to obtain PR. The bar has always been quite high actually, if you're unskilled. If you're highly skilled and filling a needed demand, the bar is a lot lower. Which is exactly what we should want.
The problem with the last 10 years is the system was turned upside down, breaking that process by flooding with TRs of all kinds of skill levels, depressing wages and exaserbating a housing crisis.
It's now pretty much just back the way it used to be, for decades... it was the greatest system in the world, let's get it there again.

If there is an actual issue, then Apple needs to fix whatever it is. Asking Teams to fix issues in the iOS bluetooth stack is nonsensical. The amount of Airpod-specific code in Teams is 0.
Also a trivial Google search tells me that if you turn off Apples "Voice Isolation" it will fix the issue. Which is obviously Apple introduced.

I don't follow how what you said has to do with this video. The guy in the video decided, all on his own, that because he did this thing 15 mins early he got to go home 15 mins early, without informing anyone. That's why he's in this situation. If he had acted like a competent adult and just went to his manager and said "hey I was in early today to let this guy in, so I am taking off early", they most likely would have said "OK no problem!" - because WFAF about 15 mins.. but he didn't do that, he JUST TOOK OFF and that's the issue.
I've been in the workforce over 30 years. When I am leaving early, even today, I tell people. It's called, being an adult. It's not a high bar... at least it never used to be.

It's not about the $100 a month. It's about having a fixed discretionary budget, that is likely maxed already.
Also, people seem to think these auto-approvals means no one ever looks at your spend... also false. It does get looked at and you need to justify it.
Level of ridiculous is in the eye of the beholder. If every one of the 5000 engineering teams in an enterprise builds their own tech stack, how is that NOT massively inefficient?

For this new challenge, Philips plans to carry it out in a large warehouse with two doors, where she hopes to spend just a couple of seconds with each participant."

That's not how tarrifs work.
That's not how any of this works.
When tarrifs are imposed on Canada, US citizens pay them. OVER A LONG TIME it impacts Canadian exports to the US. But a Canadian citizen sees no direct immediate impact from a US tarrif.
Where Canadians will feel an impact, are tarrifs placed on US products in retaliation. But I can buy my orange juice from China just fine.

Not only that, the take is just plain wrong. The safety of a car has more to do with its impact absorbing properties than its size and weight. In fact a heavier car needs more crumple zone, not less.
My wife got in an accident with a semi at 70mph in a Kia Rio. The car folded in half. She exited alive. Because of crumple zones.
