> This actually begs the question

I beleive that raises the question. I don't think it begs the question at all.

That is charge back. Even with a credit card, your bank is the mediator between you and the merchant.

> because it doesn't allow chargebacks

You can have chargebacks in crypto if the payment is scripted to allow chargebacks. It would be up to the merchant and the buyer on whether or not to allow that, and who would mediate the dispute.

I had GH Copilot make me a new programming language (LLVM based) with a pretty unique syntax, and it was able to write games in it using SDL easily.

> but as a supporter of Bison

If you support Bison, why commend someone who killed them for a profit?

In my experience, Solutions Architects don't do the implementation, they provide guidance. FDEs actually build things alongside the customer engineers.

> it's like people are LARPing a Fortune company CEO when they're giving their hot takes on social media

At least in large tech companies, they have mandatory social media training where they explicitly tell employees to use phrases like "my views are my own" to keep it clear whether they're speaking on behalf of their employer or not.

I'm not who you replied to.

Banks are cracking down on PO boxes and CMRAs as the residential address for their clients. It's fine as the mailing address, but people who travel abroad full time may not have a permanent residential address.

Right now, you can choose to use a friend/family address, or you can pay a company to provide a residential address for you.

We should be able to say "I have no permanent residential address since I'm travelling, please send all mail to this CRMA.", but that isn't a supported scenario today.

This all gets complicated for full-time US travellers abroad who may spend all year outside of the country, but they still have to have domicile in some state even when they don't have a permanent address in any state.

That might be a good approach to become a better programmer, but I don't think it's good advice to become a better software engineer.

As someone who doesn't own an EV, I don't understand what this post is trying to tell me.

He used the panel, and later a generator from a road crew, to stop his battery from shutting down before he was able to get towed.

If I had a gas car, I would stop my car and try to find a tow truck.

It seems like an ICE owner would be in the exact same situation without the need to deploy solar panels or talk to a road crew.

The article doesn't say why he needed to keep his battery from shutting down - was it to prevent an EV-specific failure mode, or was it so he could keep running the AC?

It looks like you're using the Microsoft Whiteboard logo for DrawX: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Whiteboard

You might want to change that to avoid legal issues.

This should have included the insemination and slaughter as well. That cow didn't come from nowhere.

> pretty much full rewrite

This is far from my understanding. Changing out this signature scheme is hard work, but doesn't require a rewrite of the VM.

I don't understand the title.

It doesn't seem like they are trying to figure out why two copies of outlook are installed, they're trying to figure out why neither is giving them access to their email.

Haven't we moved past using derogatory and offensive words like the one in the title?

Blockchain-based social media isn't new, so what makes this special?

Is there a technical write up where we can see how consensus works and what guarantees you have that the chain history can't be rewritten?

I already get unlimited tokens at work. I love it, but if they started calling it compensation, I'd worry about that eventually becoming taxable income.

> I think most people expected Trump Two to be a similar shit show to Trump One

While they were being warned that his team spent 4 years planning on how to get rid of anyone who pushed back, and he wouldn't be hamstrung this time.

The people who thought 2.0 would be like 1.0 were simply choosing to beleive it despite all of the evidence suggesting otherwise.

> Godot is for people who want to make games but don't care for programming and would rather use a GUI for development.

You can write a lot of code when using Godot and mix that with capabilities provided by their editor.

You never have to use editor features, but can use them to avoid wasting time reinventing the wheel.

Your comment is like saying that game engines are used by people who don't care for programming and would rather make a call to handle physics interactions.

From your /en route, clicking on a card brings me to the /nl/cards route.
