What’s killing me here is that this was literally a joke 35 years ago. A joke that was intended for all of society to laugh at. Everyone at the time thought this was stupid and funny. No one laughing at this in the late 80s would have even begun to seriously consider an All Drug Olympics.
We’re at a point now where a bunch of demonstrably insane billionaires are really doing this. What the hell is happening?
I can’t believe that this is even real! We have to be living in a simulation. There’s no way that the SNL skit “All Drug Olympics” is becoming real life. What the actual shit, man?
Yes, I’m sure if AI makes a company’s workforce 40% more efficient, then CEOs will give employees 40% more free time and not just layoff 40% if their workforce.
Yeah, Android Auto is definitely the thing I didn’t think I needed and now can’t live without.
I have no idea if there can be a foss alternative that would work with existing cars…
Politically I’m neither for nor against throwing a sub sandwich at federal agents.
But…that poor sub. Was it at least a really bad sub? I know you could argue that of course it’s a bad sub, it’s from Subway…but still. Did he buy that sub with intent, or was he just so angry that he threw his dinner?
This is great advice for signing up for streaming services, and very, very bad advice for a gym membership.
They absolutely will send your delinquent gym membership account to collections and it will wind up on your credit report. It’s part of their business plan.
You’d have to sign up with a false identity, which is technically fraud.
I expected nothing yet I’m still disappointed…
I was really hoping this would go into effect so I could sign up for a gym membership. I’ll never sign up with a gym again…Their cancellation processes are offensive and predatory.
The “click-to-cancel” rule would force gyms to allow you to cancel your gym membership as easily as you signed up for it.
For some reason these businesses are against losing the free money they get for making it hard to cancel subscriptions.
It’s been a law in Germany for three years now:
Florida is purposefully trying to destroy it’s own public school system. They make being a public school teacher so undesirable, and then complain about a “teacher shortage”. Of course nobody wants to be a public school teacher in Florida. You can get fired for how you address someone?
I bet they’ll do it in Waterfall too.
Nah B. This will be Extreme Agile XP with testing exclusively in Prod. Xitter will be the code repository.
Google Assistant on Android and Home devices gets markedly worse as time goes on. My Google Home can barely even figure out how to turn on lights anymore. Things that used to be amazing have devolved into “I don’t understand”.
It’s really quite shocking and hurts a little bit because it feels like everything in the world is degrading and decomposing like in some dystopian novel or something.
How can such amazing technology get worse? Is it really just “we can’t make money off this”?
You’re right, though. AWS has far more data centers/regions. Even if a company only uses AWS, they can set up High Availability/Disaster Recovery solutions that replicate across AWS regions.
But they won’t because:
