Is it just me, or does the writer need to learn how to properly weave sarcasm into a story? I found it hard to read, for some reason. And really, he was able to learn that much from one code review? That the guy keeps to himself, is competitive, and avoids meetings? Or did the story weaving fail again?
I wouldn't want to work here either. It doesn't sound like the "newbie" was given any coding standards, the senior seems to think they are not necessary because his way is "the way". And besides, I'm not fond of meetings either, which makes me a newbie.
Anyway, from my personal experience, my personal wealth rate of change was definitely negatively affected by the housing market, due to increase in valuations, which turned into a significant increase in real estate taxes.
I live in one of those places (Austin) where my house valuation jumped by 120% YoY.
I use it as well, the UI is a little cheesy and windows XPish (at least to my eyes). Maybe there is a technical limitation preventing it from inheriting the browser theme.
I thought cnn was already free to stream on networks such as plutotv. (https://pluto.tv/en/live-tv/cnn). I don’t know if it is a full stream or highlights though, since I never actually watched it. I use Pluto mostly for Bloomberg.
The problem is, you are only "this" far away from Apple engineers and third parties perusing your private photos due to a photo that triggers false positives.
Our family was like that. We had every single device version up to iPhone 11.
Then Apple bent to the will of the Chinese government and removed apps used by HK protesters. I don't live in Hong Kong, and I'm not affected, but it was a red flag (no pun intended).
Then they bent to the will of the new US administration, removed Parler, and threatened Telegram. I use neither, but again, red flag.
Now this. Textbook definition of hypocrisy, maybe?
We were in a holding pattern on Apple upgrades since the HK decision, and now we are two generations behind on iPhones, and (I think) four generations behind on iPads. The thought of upgrading and giving Apple more money is not appealing to any of us, so we'll keep our current devices for as long as they work, while searching for an exit from the Apple ecosystem.
It's just anecdotal, and I'm sure Tim Cook won't lose sleep over losing three iPhone and three iPad sales.
Law, order, morality.. those are things defined by a democratically elected legislative branch, and enforced by the judiciary branch, not by rich suits in closed off board rooms.
In my mind, this is just a cooperation between law enforcement and big tech to get around the 4th amendment protection.
