  • Which, by itself, is fine. But their contributions to open source are very one-handed and pale in comparison to how much they benefit out of it.

    Hell, my company is no different. They allocate one day out of the year as "open source day" where devs can contribute back to open source projects on company time. But it must be something we already use.

    No personal development. No non-essential libraries.

    We make literally millions off of these libraries and we don't even contribute monetarily.

    If these companies gave even 0.01% of their revenue to these essential libraries, they'd never even have to ask for money.

  • I mean.....are they good mods? Does the candidate have good code etiquette?

    Honestly, the fact that a candidate would mod any game, let alone a hentai game, would be pluses in my book.

  • Time to buy shorts. Or puts. Or kangaroos. Whatever.

    I don't know a fucking thing about stonks.

  • They don't have to pay unemployment if you are fired for performance.

    That said, my understanding is that you should always file for unemployment and file an appeal when it's denied. Chances are higher that it will get overturned on appeal.

  • That may work short term

    That's all that matters. The next quarter's growth is more important than the year-end P/L sheets.

  • The Jack Welsh way...

    That guy is literally, not figuratively, responsible for most of the shitty things that companies do now.

  • And it's 2024 which means a new LTS version will drop around the April/May timeframe.

  • I think the point is that a scammer may have one or two. But not millions of Gmail addresses.

  • The last one I encountered was one of the AI tools. I can't remember which one. They are popping up like fucking Starbucks now.

    They required using your Gmail, Outlook, or Discord credentials.

  • Yeah I saw the Google sheets scraping tool and that looked promising but I don't want to have to rely on Xpath since it could change.

    Right now I'm leaning toward change detector but can't get the reverse proxy to work.

  • More and more services are REQUIRING a gmail/outlook/etc. account simply because bots/scammers bombard their services. It's their cheap captcha.

    I'm seeing it more and more and it infuriates me to no end.

  • "Conservatives don't care about free speech. Conservatives cares about power. Faithfulness, old-time values, homemade bread, that’s the just means to the end. It’s a distraction. I thought you would have figured that out by now."

    • slightly altered quote from Handmaid's Tale
  • Keep in mind that their goal was and continues to be discrediting the democratic process. They are willing to give up short term gains for long term power.

    They have, imo, successfully convinced enough people that elections cannot be trusted. It's why we need more and more people to be election officials but the threat of violence against them is making it challenging.

  • Which is damn near cheap compared to other companies. I personally use dashlane (I know I know I should self host but I don't trust myself for something as important as passwords) and that's $60 for their premium package.

  • I'm actually not too worried about it. A lot of people were watching the whole "Steamboat Willie" copyright sunsetting with great interest since it was what drove Disney to lobby congress to push legislation to protect it.

    So there would have been a pretty large outcry if Disney decided to sue people for it, especially after it had expired. Given the fact that they are already fighting PR battles with DeSantis and the "anti-woke" crowd, they are probably being pragmatic and not fighting a battle that they'd pretty much lose in court as well as in public opinion.

  • The law is only as powerful as people are willing to enforce it.

    Just because it's a "goddamn motherfucking law" doesn't mean shit if powerful corporations are willing to spend unholy amounts of money to make you prove it in court.

    The "Happy Birthday" song was believed to be in the public domain for centuries but Warner Brothers was able to convince people to just pay them a license fee in order to prevent going to court. It was only in 2016 that a court ruled that it was in the public domain.

    So yeah....Disney could have been real douches about this. But they are, uncharacteristically, being nice about it.

  • Ah....the days when perl was the shit and python was still a glimmer in the eye of some frustrated programmer.

  • Lock picking lawyer.

    Used to be a channel about how locks works, how lock picking works, cool locks and shitty locks.

    Now it's just a channel to sell his tools.
