May I ask after much time had passed after you got your first hole before you got the other holes?

PS: Anyone in the know who wants to give me the straight answer to whether or not I should be expecting more holes to pop up?
My fride, my pantry and my local Asian shops would respectfully disagree with that statement.
Hui Fong Sriracha is less sweet, less garlicky, brighter and the chillies come out way more. It's not the same product as the Flying Goose brand and they certainly can't be substituted for each other. I love 'em both.
To you.
Than Microsoft would've been scammed out of $350 worth of plane tickets, $150 worth of hotel commodations and $1000 worth of employee time. Hardly the end of the world for a multi billion dollar company
> and passed just due to the advantage?
Passed a six hour Microsoft on-site grilling due to knowing the question for a 15 minute off-site interview question?
I'm in the automotive industry and apart from the obvious factory workers I cant think of a single group of colleagues for whom it would not be possible to work remotely. I also dont agree with the "software industry" asterisk. As long as your work is done 100% on a computer, remote work is more likely than not suited for you.
Don't take this as a toxic comment, but we're talking about taking away 1-2 hours of time of living and breathing human beings. Out of what? 6-8 hours free time? If anything, the employers should need to prove why remote work isnt possible. Anything else is damn near unethical.
I should add, that I'm blessed with a great union that allows me to cut my weekly hours, which I will do once I reach a comfortable level of income that suits my lifestyle. Which is to say: I really, really, really like spending my own time on myself. So my view on this topic is highly skewed.
I don't undertand this "you can't build relationships over Teams" sentiment. Have people forgot about online gaming? There are millions -- I'd wager a billion -- close friendships that started (and maybe stayed) fully online. The bar for colleague-level acquaintances is much lower.
> Sure, but it's straightforward to install those [0]. A separate test suite would not be.
0: Those = Other packages you would have to download to make use of the testing components, i.e. pytest

Bit odd how you could miss the only point OP was trying to make. Yes, if you know that TECH_X is used in production at BIG_CORP_Y, it's very helpful. I can tell you that in the BIG_CORP I work for, we quite possibly use or have used any- and everything for something. The point OP was trying to make is: What is that something?
Suspiciously missing the dept-to-GDP ratio. I wonder why that is?
Sorry but that has to be the most contrived and ridicilous statement I've ever read. And this is coming from someone -- me -- who owns two cars, lives in Berlin and practically never uses public transportation.
In Germany there is a distinction between copyright holder (Inhaber des Urheberrechts) and the entity that is allowed to act on the copyright (Inhaber des Nutzungsrechts). If I take a picture that you contracted me to take, I'm the former and you're the latter.
This doesn't answer the question in the article tho. The question isn't "Who has the rights to a copy of my medical images". It's "Who owns the copyright to my medical images".
To answer that question, you'd first have to find out if your medical images are even protected by copyright in the first place. The answer to this question depends wholly on the picture itself.
Let's say a medical image of yours is indeed protected by copyright, then -- even in your country in Europe (regardless of which country it actually is) -- the copyright holder is the person who took the image. Not you. It may very well be that in your country this copyright is restricted by other laws (i.e. Persönlichkeitsrecht in Germany).
If anything, diets should focus on the psychological factor more than the actual food, but then again, people have different levels of willpower. So telling somebody to stop eating too many calories is not only not helpful, it's also highly condescending.
My personal problem with eating is that I like eating large meals. I can't cut out liquid calories as I dont drink any of my calories. I can't cut out sweets, as I don't eat sweets in any substantial amount (maybe a single gummy bear a week?). I just like eating large meals -- and I would do so several times a day if it wasnt for the adverse effects on my body.
Also, I'm kinda proud of how I was practically bang-on on the calorie quiz in the article, except for the pizza. Apparently large means LARGE in the US lol. I was off by 500 kcal.
My (very wrong) opinion on what Mittelstand is: I think of a small-to-medium sized company that manufactures (I've never thought of service providing companies as Mittelstand) one group of things at a very high and competitive level. I think of companies that are pretty much strictly B2B. These are mostly family-owned businesses, but for me that doesnt need to be true. Companies that you only know of, when you need to know. And when you do need to know about them, you most definitely will know about them.
Again, this definitely isnt what most people consider to be Mittelstand. Just my view on it.
Very odd, seeing how you literally posted very fungibale things right after that. You know that you can just negotiate those things and only jump ship once you've found something that satisfies you.
If you wanted to make your point, you should've talked about actual barely-fungible things when switching jobs, i.e. if you're going to do the work you've been promised, your managers and company culture, etc etc etc
Voting with your feet is trying. Also keep your snarky (and highly boring) political stance to Reddit, whenever possible (always).
I fully agree with you (and it's one of the few strongly held opinions of mine), but I'm not really sure why you would bring this up within the context of patent trolls. Patents do run out, rather quickly even.
It's other intellectual property -- namely copyright -- that needs to run out way faster. The trademark system that we have right now is alright imo and doesnt need to be "fixed".
First of all, the things you've listed are not building not "one level above the former". The question should be: Are more criminals using crypto now than in 2018? Are more website using using crypo now than in 2020?
For the former: I definitely can't the buy the shit that I used to be able to with the mainstream coins. So I'm not sure how that is going to play out. The market definitely changed for criminals using crypto.
For the latter: I don't have hard data on this, but I'd bet a good wager that the golden time of "You can also pay in crypto!!" is over. Back then crypto was practically only advertised as a means of exchange, which lead to more services offering it as a means of exchange. Nowadays the vast majority of the mainstream crypto (and where most of the "money" is) is used as a storage of value. You could buy all kinds of crazy shit, even with fairly big companies with mainstream crypto. Nowadays? Not so much.
About your 2022 example. I see you've used the plural. Countries. Is that so? Which country, other than El Salvador, is also using crypto as a legal tender? And while you're googling that, please make sure to also google how much the usage for crypto has changed El Salvador since it became legal tender. And how the adoption of it was. I'll give you a little hint: Quite literally not at all.
Do people not go to work and see their managers in action? What makes them think that after just enough career steps a switch happens and people just magically become soulless profit driven AIs?
