  • Colorado hiker rescued after workmates reportedly left him on mountain

    跳过

  • The unnamed man got lost and found himself without phone signal after being left by colleagues who went ahead without him, the Chaffee County Search and Rescue team said.

    In their statement, officials said the hiker was left to reach the summit on his own at about 11:30 local time (17:30 GMT).

    From another article:

    “In what might cause some awkward encounters at the office in the coming days and weeks, one member of their party was left to complete his final summit push alone,” search and rescue officials said.

    They left him behind.

    In response to him "not listening" about being on the wrong trail:

    Shortly after sending them a second message, a strong storm passed through the area, bringing "high winds and freezing rain" and leaving him without a signal.

    From the other article:

    The abandoned hiker finally reached the correct trail around 3:30 p.m. and texted his coworkers that he was back on course when a strong storm passed through the area with freezing rains and high winds, pushing him back off course and causing him to lose his cell phone signal, search and rescue officials said.

  • I'm sure laws on this differ everywhere in the world but I assume you're talking US. It is doubtful an employer could win a law suit against you for not showing your specific methodology unless you have a contract and that was part of it.

    As far as firing goes, there aren't very many situations that an employer can't fire you over for cause but obviously also can fire you without cause.

    Would they own the templates? Yeah but they'd also have to know to look for them unless you told them. Otherwise they'd probably already have created some templates and expect you to use and perhaps improve them.

    Samsung TVs will get 7 years of updates, starting with 2023 models

  • Gets an update a couple of years in to fix some bugs.

    Gets second update on year 5 to add ads in all menus.

    Gets a third update on year 6 to add a nag banner saying it isn't going to work anymore soon with a discount code for a new Samsung TV.

    Gets a fourth update on year 7 on the backend to disable Samsung account access from the TV but on the front end of the TV making Samsung account access mandatory to use the TV.

  • Reminds me of a friend of mine. He was promoted to some sort of engineering metrics analyst. His job it turned out, was to take a bunch of different reporting products and then create a presentation once a week to go over all of the metrics and have them in easy to understand graphs on a specific template.

    So of course a month into the job he automates the entire thing and his job now takes a total of 5 minutes because he waits on the actual numbers to be crunched and spit out into the new template.

    He's super bored and asks me if he should tell his boss what he's done and possibly get another promotion out of it. I said "Sure, if you want to be promoted to the layoff line."

    So his boss gave him some extra tasks and he just keeps blazing through them. His boss wants to know how he's able to be the most productive person they've ever seen in that position. He asks me again, if he should tell the boss and his boss' boss because they are super impressed. I said "No. Absolutely not. Just shrug and tell them you just do your best every day. They'll eat that right up." He does. He gets a promotion a couple of months later to a middle manager of some type. Probably due the Peter Principle.

    Don't ever give out your templates or show your process. If they can hire someone less experienced at a much cheaper rate, they eventually will.

  • Labor board confirms Amazon drivers are employees, in finding hailed by union

    跳过

  • The drivers work for Battle-Tested Strategies out of Amazon DAX-8 in Palmdale. Battle-Tested Strategies owns/leases all the delivery vans. Amazon doesn't own Battle-Tested Strategies but is the actual contractor for Amazon.

    Just over a year ago Battle-Tested Strategies recognized that their drivers are a part of the Teamster's union. Then last summer Amazon essentially let go all of the union drivers.

    The NRLB ruled that both Amazon and Battle-Tested Strategies are joint employers of those drivers. This means that not only can the Teamsters directly negotiate with Amazon for a binding bargaining agreement, then Amazon may be liable if they violated laws in regard to stuff like union busting and retaliation.

    Here's an article from last summer about what happened that kicked this off.

  • Guest wifi does not mean it is unsecure, it is simply just another logical network. Sure amazon could equip their trucks with wifi I suppose and maybe some TVs would have good connection to update fast enough while a truck is there without a lot of tcp retransmits due to lack of efficient lack of penetration but that's not going effect all brands and surely it isn't something that is currently happening in a large effect.

    You could talk about hypotheticals in the future sure but they aren't going to scan for these magical "network ports" that are just hanging around the ether. It needs to have a connection and one that is reasonable in quality and time.

  • I used to do this on one of my sites that was moderately popular in the 00's. I had a link hidden via javascript, so a user couldn't click it (unless they disabled javascript and clicked it), though it was hidden pretty well for that too.

    IP hits would be put into a log and my script would add a /24 of that subnet into my firewall. I allowed specific IP ranges for some search engines.

    Anyway, it caught a lot of bots. I really just wanted to stop automated attacks and spambots on the web front.

    I also had a honeypot port that basically did the same thing. If you sent packets to it, your /24 was added to the firewall for a week or so. I think I just used netcat to add to yet another log and wrote a script to add those /24's to iptables.

    I did it because I had so much bad noise on my logs and spambots, it was pretty crazy.

  • Her tweet was in response to an anti-hate law (Hate Crime and Public Order Act) this year, where you could spend up to 7 years in prison for example, communicating in a way "that a reasonable person would consider to be threatening or abusive." So, if charged in Scotland, she could go to prison.

    Though she's rich, so probably not.
