"Quite a few of these apps (Drive, Docs, Sheets, Keep, Duo) were updated on December 7, the very last day to get in app updates before the new privacy requirements"

That is an interesting anecdote. Here is another - No engineers I've worked with cared about guns at all.

It is not good or right, but non-binary people are probably not going to have a good time at FedEx or Dewey Pest Control. Seems like those companies may already know that and they were using the knobs they were given.

They are spending money on impressions, why waste them?

Of course, the better idea to not allow them to ignore those interested and eventually hire them and move slowly forward past the the present culture at those places.

yep. nothing interesting here

"Go to a room where you won't be disturbed for 10 minutes."

By George, you have solved anxiety!...

Yea, no, this is not good advise in general.

"The number is mounting, and it'll vary depending on whom you talk to," said John Stewart, an evolutionary paleoecologist at Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom. Some researchers argue that the species known as Homo erectus is in fact made up of several different species, including Homo georgicus and Homo ergaster.

"It's all about the definition of a species and the degree to which you accept variation within a species," Stewart told Live Science. "It can become a slightly irritating and pedantic discussion, because everyone wants an answer. But the truth is that it really does depend."

TL;DR "the truth is that it really does depend"

People have to do cray things to get noticed now. For better or worse, get used to it.

This article was AI generated, right?

Too little, too late, too cherrypicked. Byee Intel.

Yep, I have to admit I completely disregarded the article and its possible legitimacy after seeing the ads on that website.

Uh, didn't we figure out a long time ago that Mensa is a scam?

Gross. I had bubble tea exactly once while interviewing at FB. I had to choke it back and try not look like an idiot. Pretty sure that is the one and only reason why I didn't get an offer - "this dude is clearly from the Midwest and has no place here." /s

wtf FB, let this one fire burn itself out.

"I always thought of app reviews as being reviews of the applications... not of the companies or services behind them."

I stopped reading there since you are obviously misinformed.

Apple reporting is significantly delayed, always has been, seems like 24-48 hours. They seem to to do more batching than realtime with reporting. Tomorrow may be more interesting, or not, if they choose to delete activity from today.

Just keep doing it, next week, next month... how many bailouts is Google going to give them?

"asking the right questions is the job itself"

^exactly

"There is a skill of knowing when and how to ask questions, and this skill can be learned." ^ this

Ask the questions well and more senior dev isn't going to be nearly as annoyed and be way more willing to dive in and help. Show that at a minimum you understand why you are stuck.

"This doesn't work, help" is bad.

"This doesn't work because when X happens I get Y instead of Z which is what would have expected" is much better.

Seems low

hah, because religious people make fewer bad decisions? Where are you going with this?

I'm been a part of my group for over a year and the sis the first I've heard about a book. Also, what did you expect? If you don't like the group, why are you on it just to complain. It is optional to be there. But, I'm sure you were already reminded of that during your crucifixion.

People have different schedules, the goal of giving away most items is to make sure it gets to the person who needs it most. Letting a post sit for 24hrs gives everyone a chance to see it.

People comment about why they need it or will use it for in that time, then the poster can decide who to give it to after a fair amount of time.

this

so what, the TOS don't mean anything unless you make an effort to enforce them

Hilarious. Death threats were cool with him when it was directed at others, now he is whining about when the tables get turned on him.

yes.

I know nothing about this, how does it stay attached to you such that there is no way to remove it?

Crap, now I am going to have to fire up a VPN and private browsing window to google how a chastity cage works.
