At that point just call it Redwall Abbey!

But how many bytes are there in a word?

The entire Redwall series! Man I'm hungry now... could go for a nice cordial and scone...

Don't you usually have to assemble those yourself? Like get a bunch of vendors to brand some generic items and put them in a bag?

Very simply, the income they generate from violating the law is more than the fines they will receive if those violations are brought up.

I got an amazon gift card because there was a promotion for $12.50 credit, and then with the prime card that's an extra $3 credit. So basically a free $15 for spending money on money I'll eventually spend anyways.

There are a lot of mergers with B2B sales, not consumer sales, that you don't hear about that have gone perfectly fine.

I don't think Curiosity and its cousins can tighten down leaky bolts on pipe connections, which is what I think of when the term "maintenance" comes up. The closest we have right now in that vicinity is Spot from Boston Dynamics, and it basically only acts as a universal monitoring tool to go yell at a human to fix things.

I guess what I'm saying is that robots can identify problem points, but at the current time can't actually troubleshoot or resolve those problems. Those are really difficult problems to solve.

Until a general purpose robot that can do all the things a human can do is developed and can be more cheaply deployed than a human, a human's gonna do it instead.

That's when you give em the name "a" and a temporary email address. Gives them one more chance to prove themselves, and if not, they get left with garbage in their database.

Maintenance is always done on site. Do you think the workers on oil rigs take a commute to land every night? No, so people are going to need to live in space to solve problems in space.

Get a job at a government contractor; I haven't done shit in several months. I hate it though because of the constant politics and my lead being generally incompetent.

People love APL more than Java? Interesting, I always bring up APL as a joke.

How about the alternative of leaving it a rats nest of wires and adding an animated sculpture of an IT person trying to make sense of it all?

Just delete your account this time.

Perhaps the phrasing "dissolved my startup company" would be more clear.

Have you tried (in Firefox) screenshotting the entire page? If you don't need text to be selectable or anything then dumping that into a PDF might work. Otherwise you can use SingleFile to download the page and then convert that HTML to PDF using some other tool.

For you, no risk seems acceptable when it comes to security. That is generally not the case for most people, who will accept some level of risk (ie an insecure program) if it provides value to them. That's the whole point of risk management.

>System design, though, is the actual point of SW ENGINEERING.

I thought system design was the point of system engineering?

Get a stack of CDs, cover it in silicone about 4" thick, then cover it in concrete and bury it in the middle of the woods.

Brave New Faves, once a week on Saturdays. It's not really a "streaming service" but you might enjoy it.

The only thing you need for a humanoid robot is for it to be human shaped and have some electronics inside of it. Doesn't mean it has to even remotely be human in interaction.

Logarithms probably

Banning an entire site that is potentially full of primary sources is a poor idea.

So add Sponsorblock on top for the first one?

It is in government contracts!

Heck the original Meat Boy flash game was basically just two or three people. And that alone was enough to get everyone interested.

Strange because anything else with a browser built-in doesn't pester you about cookies, like a phone application. And those definitely deal with cookies.

Because my boss who paid money for this crap can't follow it when I point out they're doing it wrong. I have had more meetings than ever before and priority changes pretty much every day. Also they don't understand the concept of a story point at all and everything surrounding them becomes bogus busywork nonsense.

I've heard plenty of arguments for why Windows sucks and plenty for why Linux sucks too. And anytime I read those arguments, there's a distinct lack of care taken to understanding the other's perspective. Pick your poison basically; for most normal users, Windows/Mac has fewer annoyances than Linux and for devs, Linux has fewer annoyances than Windows/Mac. Yes, most normal users would prefer not to use a terminal, which any troubleshooting in Linux basically requires. Yes, most devs would prefer to be able to manually or programmatically update settings, which Windows tries to actively avoid. There's not a lot of discussion to be had here other than advice that can be taken from one to another and try and accommodate as many workflows as possible.
