Fraud liability was shifted from card brands to retailers if they don't support chip. That was a big deal to start supporting it.

At Gmail's launch, Hotmail was offering only 2MB of free space, while Gmail was offering 1GB. At the time, that was a game changer, and how they captured a good chunk of the market.
That's something I'd say to be funny, especially on reddit.
We need a lot of doctors, more than what we are producing. It's baffling you need 100s of thousands of dollars to become a Dr in the US.
Remove the undergrad requirement to apply for med school, like most of the world, and fix the college affordability problems.
If the amount of money to produce doctors keeps escalating, it's not surprising medical care only goes up.
I also applaud this ISP for blocking Twitter and Facebook, but not because they blocked Trump. Both platforms are a cesspool of misinformation, echo chambers, self esteem issues in children, mental manipulation and many other problems. Good riddance.
Please sign me up for this blocker service.
No, only those with extremist and dangerous views.
Employers won't pay a first world salary while living in a low cost country.
I pay much more than $10 for only WSJ subscription. Sounds like I'm getting the shaft.
His goal was to increase the share price by x%. It was no secret one of the strategies was to cut jobs in high cost regions (US) and hire in low cost regions. You'd actually hear this in all hands meetings. It was shockingly shameless.
I'd say it should be called a speculative vehicle. The word speculative carries a negative connotation, so financial companies won't make money off of bitcoin trades, so hence the name investment vehicle. It's as manipulative as the name almond milk, which is not really milk.
When I came to the US (mid 2010's), I was surprised a large number of people never even heard of WhatsApp.
Moving applications to the cloud and the slow deprecation of old windows apps made this possible.
Where most of us developers struggle with is making beautiful websites vs just something that works but looks ok.
One of the reasons bootstrap is so successful is that it's easy to use/integrate and produces a website that is very pleasant to look at.
This is the reason large employers have mandatory yearly training videos on ethics, sexual harrassment, insider trading and a plethora of other topics. I used to feel severely inconvenienced every year, "wasting productive hours", until I was aware of the world out there and how frequent are problems in these areas.
NSA could still mount an attack by asking the CA to register NSA's certs as valid, and tamper the victim's network connection. What makes certs secure is our trust in certificate authorities.
Why do taxpayers have to pay expensive court proceedings, and offenders have to spend a lot of money for an attorney, and waste a bunch of time.
For my own desktop apps, I'd choose Qt, since cross platform support is top notch.
With that said, I understand that nowadays, C++ developers are harder to come by, and memory corruption issues are not fun to work with.
We should never encourage lying or deceiving people (pushing not technically true narratives). This just erodes trust in society.
A workday at Starbucks would cause me head and shoulder pain for days.
I'm considering buying one of those multi-point bluetooth headphones, but I'm not very convinced it will be less painful than my current setup.
Why would I want to change passwords? Either he doesn't know what he's talking about, or breach is worse than reported, e.g. DMV website passwords were stolen and they were stored without salting/hashing.
Maybe he's so skilled that his employers (e.g. hospital) disregarded his appearance?
Or perhaps you were thinking if he's sloppy with his appearance, he'll be sloppy providing care.
If you want Spring support, or you want to use other JetBrains IDEs for other languages, you have to pay.
Personally, I'm happy to fork my money to them. They make the best IDEs out there.
Mexican politicians buy votes with a one time delivery of grocery bags or 20-50 dollar grocery store cards.
I quit a job where I would only see the manager on 1-1 meetings, and was clueless about the state of the business and how to help team members succeed and get promoted.
I stopped discussing work topics on the 1-1 meetings since I didn't see any point, and eventually quit, as well as other team members.
Plenty of things would be exciting to work on that makes human society better.
Everyone used eBay like 20 years ago. Now, not so much.
I have an RPi4, tried kodi (libreelec OS) and vlc on raspbian, both apps stutter with most videos at 1080p. Luckily I repurposed it for IOT so I'm pretty happy with it.
