Just dropping by to say how much I passionately hate documentation that uses fib() as an example.

Well, it would probably need to be part of a physical product and not software alone unless the vendor is dumb and forgot to disclaim the warranty (see https://repository.law.uic.edu/jitpl/vol16/iss2/6/ )

I wonder how this compares to Technical Pan, which I imagine it was modeled after.

Eh, kind of. Right now I'm hiring for a role where nobody remaining in my applicant pool is qualified (all have only some of the experience I need) but I'm probably still going to hire one of them. Does that "qualify" th

I sell you a cat for $1B and you sell me a dog for $1B and now we’re both billionaires! Whether the capital markets “want” that or not it’s still silly.

This has got to be the weirdest litigation strategy I’ve ever seen.

This is basically the opposite of how juror psychology works. Jurors in these cases tend to vote against defendants they identify with because they prefer to believe they’d never act like the defendant. Source: I’m a former jury consulta

You mean you never stay in a CC session long enough to even see the auto compaction warning?

You mean like the million dollar McMansions on the same block as a gas station, across the street from an office high rise? I think you’re over-estimating the effect of land prices.

In theory, sure, but in reality, please god no. 99% of LinkedIn messages you get as a hiring manager are “Hi I applied to your role”, “Hi I applied to your role and I’d be a great fit when can we talk?”, “Hi I’m really interested in learnin

The AI-written cover letters are a dead giveaway and you can often spot them in less than 10 seconds easy, but it’s still a terrible slog. If you don’t believe me, try clustering 1,000 cover letters.

Basically, you donate to a PBS member station, and the station uses at least some portion your money to pay PBS dues.

PBS doesn’t make PBS content either. They acquire it from people who make it using CPB money, among others. Then the stations that don’t make the content license it from PBS, mainly using CPB money. And they use it to attract members/d

Disney is a good one to bet on. They basically have the most sophisticated IP lawyering team in world history.

Meta seems like it's definitely worse than the others now, though, since you're liable to be explicitly labeled a "low performer" if you get laid off.
