Or revolvers, bolt action rifles, muskets, bow and arrows, spears, swords, shields, catapults, castles/ land forts.

This is correct. This entire conversation demonstrates how bad technical people are at understanding people.

You’re getting downvoted because it’s evidence against the prominent sentiment of government good, big business bad. How could to government ever make a mistake.

The judges ruling was uneducated and poorly based, especially considering how the big four got to be so big. It was politically motivated to make the party/gov look good, but the long term results were good for nobody. I lost money betting on the merger, it makes no sense it got blocked.

That’s what he is saying. Get rid of non h1bs then keep draining people until they leave and then use that as justification to expand h1b positions.

H1b is really not fair. They have virtually no negotiation standing without risking their immigration status. They are underpaid and subsidized, and drive domestic wages down. Among many simple reforms they should execute, a big one would be tonseperate the sponsor company from the visa. Which would allow them to negotiate and have more agency.

At least you can be productive ish on the train, sitting in the car for a daily dose of near death experience is even worse.

No they won’t this is a highly public case because of their mishandling of all of it. They are claiming they can’t give people back their things and much of it was “lost”. Another addition to the long list of civil forfeiture cases in which us law enforcement legally steals people’s assets without consequences. They are incentivized to do so as local and federal agencies get kickbacks from what they seize. They’ve taken tens of thousands of dollars from taxpayers with little to no cause. Look up civil forfeiture.

You are blaming the wrong party. They’ve gotten that perspective from experience not thought vacuum. There are many industries, commercial airlines included that do not have competitive capitalist environments. There are typically 3-5 big players, typically heavily in bed with the gov whose incentives aren’t aligned. Telco, domestic automakers, insurance come to mind initially.

There is also a corporate greed, which is leaking into tech with commoditization, problem in America where fewer and fewer companies treat their employees as assets and rather treat them as cogs. People are loosing their tolerance.

Use ravio on io’s, lets you copy, backup and duplicate them to other places.

Key fob and the recovery method works for vehicles because it also requires physical access and knowing where that specific car is. It’s very easy for somebody to steal a specific car, even high end luxury car without after market mods if they can get to it.

This doesn’t work for the internet because anyone can access the target from anywhere.

We already do this to a degree with trusted CA centralization and there are recorded incidents (pretty frequently) of major breaches and state actors posing as various entities.

The stakes are also different, stealing a car is hard to do when it has physical security and has physical consequences. It’s also not worth a whole lot after because it’s hot. Stealing somebody’s identity is worth a whole lot more, hard to if even possible recover from and can be done remotely from anywhere.

I think centralization around brokers is a terrible idea. Look at Equifax, the audit after revealed it was only a matter of time before somebody utilized the multiple gaping completely negligent holes they had. The resulting fine for leaking every man, woman, and child’s ssn, birthdate, address, and drivers license was the equivalent of a few dollars to them.

Biometrics don’t require consent. Just hold up a friends phone towards their face.

I just opened a ticket with notion on mobile and plan on switching because I can’t use it for simple notes. This is the amount of steps it takes to login and you have to do it all the time:

* unlock your phone * tap notion * you're logged out - avoid the big login with x sso buttons, scan for and click the little text that's black on black labeled "login here with email" * type my email out (no autofill) * tap submit * exit app, open mail * find the notion email, usually it's right there other times, you must refresh constantly, sometimes it takes whole minutes because it's email * highlight as much of the password as you are able but not all of it because you can't due to the dashes * adjust highlighted text while holding down long enough to pop up the copy context window or memorize a cute phrase with dashes and type it out without making a mistake, 3 taps a dash (x4) because mobile keyboard layering * hit copy, exit app, open notion * press and hold in the textbox for the paste window or type it out * finally hit paste and submit * remember what you were trying to do quickly

Now add slow or glitchy(5g+) internet and it doesn’t work.

Even if you wanted to tie yourself permanently to an sso provider, a lot of the time, they too require re auth. If you have 2fa on (as you should) that's as many steps. The push for sso is also incredibly annoying. I’ve nearly deplatformed very intentionally.

Notion does a lot of funky things like refuse to build and offline mode which exacerbates this.

One other thing I don’t like about “passwordless” is biometric as a security feature instead of it as a convenience. 1Password removed passcode unlock on mobile in favor of faceid. Which if you don’t use it results in entering your full long password every time you use it, even if you just used it. Apparently I wasn’t the only one that complained because they restored the feature shortly after removing it. I unlock my friends phones while they are driving with faceid all the time. Too easy, not secure enough for the app that has most of my secrets.

Use 2fa, local passcodes that require reauth occasionally, and assume you are running on a locked device, if logging in from a new place maybe 3fa like Coinbase.

This is not a direct decision of valve. There are lots of people working on games but the company is privately held, democratically vote driven where they don’t fire anyone. I’m pretty sure it’s relatively small staff compared to other modern gaming studios these days.

The gaming industry pc is the largest it’s ever been and growing. Look at subreddit growth for r/pcmasterrace and the popularity and growth of discord as a platform. Pro Pc Esports is also growing, has more watchers every week than the Super Bowl and dominates consoles.

It's actually the opposite imo. With polarizing events like some people will indeed dislike her greatly and judge her for it but others who agree with her position will rally behind her and go out of their way to hire her. As long as there are people in her camp, she has likely received an outcry of support and multiple interview requests with likely some leadership opportunities.

She was on a ramp aka training then started in q4 during holiday season. New sales don't sell first quarter. She isn't selling lemonade, she is selling deals worth 10s of thousands.
