It blows my mind that a bunch of adults, prosecutors, CPS employees, etc all decided the fair, reasonable and best thing to do was prosecute and punish this mother.

Oh wow thanks, I had completely forgotten about the Ultrasound even though I loved mine back in the days.

Lucky you, at least you can load it. My IP (from a generic run of the mill ISP) just seems outright blocked.

From my understanding this one is used for hiring tech workers only. The (very) widely used Workday application system for ex seems to have its own built-in ATS.

I try to stick to plain HTML5 / Javascript validation. Trying to not reinvent the wheel and use what the browser already has built-in seems best.

Are we talking about bonds or government bonds here? The former will beat inflations assuming you don't just buy AAA rated ones. Investment grade perpetual bonds in US dollars yield over 6.5% on a Yield-to-call basis.

I use a plain Firefox on a plain Windows 11 PC on a plain regular mass market ISP in a developed country and I get completely blocked by websites daily. At least let me complete a "prove you are human" challenge or something, but

Well my IP (regular plain residential Asian ISP) is blocked on this site. Zealous Cloudflare-blocking is breaking the web. (also thanks for the useful message telling me to "contact the website owner... while blocking me from the websi

I spent countless hours as a teen on that game. I feel it might be faster to rewrite it from scratch though than reverse engineer it.

AFAIK it's a meme stock, reality doesn't matter anymore than it matters for Tesla or Gamestock.

It's fairly close now but so much more verbose: ie document.getElementById('theID') vs $('#theID')

Indeed. Though a lot of its feature found their way into plain vanilla Javascript and browsers, the syntax is still so much easier with jQuery.

Same here. OLED is fine for gamers who use it a couple hours here and there but for a system that's on 8+ hour per day with a taskbar and the usual work apps, this is just not adequate.

It's ugly, poorly built, expensive and not very good as a truck. A gas engine will not fix all these flaws.

I have almost zero spam (that isn't filtered properly). Once in a while I catch a false positive in the spam folder but that's about it.

There's worse than having to prove (over and over and over again) that you are human: having your IP just completely blocked by Cloudflare zealous bot-filtering (and I use a plain mass market ISP in a developed country and not some sha

As a user I do care, because I waste so much time on Cloudflare's "prove you are human" blocking-page (why do I have to prove it over and over again?), and frequently run on websites blocking me entirely based on some bad IP-

It wouldn't be hard to select and accredit at least the better universities. Giving an automatic work visa to every foreign Ivy graduate should be a no-brainier. You could take the top 30% or 50% ranked US News universities and accredi

Basic cakes are fairly trivial. A pound cake (or butter cake) for ex is just egg, butter, flour and sugar in equal weights and a bit of baking powder. The other issue the article's author doesn't discuss is that boxed mixes are us

Lack of construction is likely the problem. High financing costs, expensive construction material (a lot of it is imported, like Canadian wood) and disappearing construction workers is probably all contributing.

Reminds me of that phone that had a regular screen on one side and e-ink on the other side. Maybe someone should make a foldable where the outside screen is an e-ink and the inside a regular foldable OLED.

I mean Toyota is now the #1 car manufacturer in the world and Japanese brands have about 1/3 of the US car market, so Japan didn't do too badly really.

I really don't see Microsoft blocking unsigned exe. There's just too much old Windows/DOS software out there still in use, sometimes running critical infrastructure.

You are assuming the administration will respect legal decisions. This is sadly no longer a given...
