Because the rules around running a business in the COVID-19 environment have been set such that large companies can afford to comply with them but small business can’t without losing money. So all their employees, and eventually the busines

Okay for all the people that are talking about how great this is, try this one. What if it turns out a company that they sold all of their data to was later contracted by a government to develop biological weapons? And what if they were sud

I actually had a similar idea to discourage certain news outlets from posting inflammatory but misleading or untrue headlines and articles for clicks, and then later changing them to something more factually correct after the damage has bee

Is it just me or does that sound an awful lot like a foreign government interfering in U.S. elections?

Does it strike anyone else as odd that the two skulls found practically "nose-to-nose" are 40,000 years apart in age? How do two humanoid skulls coincidentally end up right next to each other with 40,000 years gap between them?

You can see an inverse of the 3D image by simply crossing your eyes until things "line up". It will appear 3D, but things that are intended to jump out at you will sink into the page instead. But that will at least give you a gene

It's ironic that Epic is going to accuse anyone of being irresponsible. I got an alert from haveibeenpwned a while back showing that my login credentials from Epic were part of a leak, including my password in plaintext. It wasn't

I think it is ironic that Google et al like to point out when governments are asking them to censor something, but make no mention of when they themselves are censoring something. "Governments are the real bad guys here. Trust us.&quot

I have been a long-time fan of the Razer Deathadder, and I was talking to a friend about it the other day and realized that the reason I like it so much is because the form factor is very close to the original IntelliMouse.

I feel like if it is the latter, Github will quickly lose market share to non-Microsoft competitors. Developers on the whole seem to care a lot more about those kinds of tactics than computer users in general. Surely Microsoft understands t

Let me also add that it doesn't teach them all at once. It starts from first principles and adds on new libraries as the tutorial apps become more complex.

This is true, but I feel like the popularity of the Raspberry Pi has done a lot to improve the ARM Linux ecosystem in recent years.

I recommend the e-book Fullstack React ( https://www.fullstackreact.com/ ) (I have no relationship to these guys, other than being a customer). I have had junior engineers read it in the past to get up-to-speed and it does a

It may also be worth noting that judges in Texas are elected, not appointed, the same way as any other politician.

Do you want to get regulated? Because that's how you get regulated.

Great point. We already know from the 2012 election and from the 2015 Podesta e-mails that Facebook doesn't exactly have a great record of political neutrality.

This may be possible, however it is going to be interesting to see how Facebook gets standing to sue CA. From what I understood from Zuckerberg's statement, the agreement was between Facebook and Kogan. If CA got the data from Kogan, i

It doesn't help that anytime Facebook changes their privacy policy or their available privacy settings, they tend to set it to a convenient default that benefits them, and that Plumber Joe is likely to never even know about.

The Podesta e-mails have conversations between John Podesta and Sheryl Sandberg about meetings to help elect the first woman president. So, while I think Facebook is morally reprehensible, this latest media outrage because of connections to

I am considering buying this for an engineer that works for me to get up to speed on React in the very near future. I only want to start him on ES6+ syntax though. How long do you think until it will be up-to-date?
