In addition, password managers are much better than the average human at avoiding phishing attacks. The chances of the password manager auto-filling your normalwebsite.com password on nomalwebsite.com or normal-website.com are infinitesimally low compared to the chances of an average user doing so.

I thought in the US, hospitals were only required to stabilize, not treat, non-paying patients. For example, if someone has cancer, they are not required to perform surgery or chemotherapy, just stabilize their symptoms at the moment.

I vaguely remember hearing he hired a private investigator to dig up dirt on the guy to ruin his life but there was no dirt to be dug up. But maybe I am misremembering things.

What story is that?

For a second I though this was CAESAR II, the piping analysis program, and got excited.

To add some context, in Canada, if you lose your job as a work permit holder, you can stay until the expiry date of the permit. In Germany, you can get a six-month jobseeker residence permit in this case. In France, you can stay until the expiry date of your work permit, then renew it for one extra year, and then if you still have remaining entitlement to unemployment benefits, extend it until the end of the benefits. Not every country is like the US, where you have 60 days to uproot and leave.

I am Canadian and it's the first time I have heard this term. I am surprised you know about this from Sweden. I knew of the Canadian term, "leave" or "leave to appeal" though.

> ... I have no problem with it .... is an honest observation but guaranteed downvote.

You seem to be doing the whole "express my intent properly and caused a misunderstanding" thing again here with this line. This part does not read like an observation, but a value judgment, and abhorrent one at that. This part reads as not just saying that the justice system is biased, but that it should be biased, which I don't think is your actual view, or any sane person's.

If I ever had doubts that all companies, including big tech ones, need unions to protect employees from management abuse, I no longer do.

> The moment you become unemployed, the countdown clock to deportation starts ticking.

I am NOT 100% sure about this, but to the best of my knowledge, this is not the case in Canada. Work Permits are issues for the duration of the expected work and are usually at least one year long. If you lose your job, you can still remain in Canada until the expiry date of your work permit. You cannot simply start working elsewhere, but if you find a new job, your new employer can start the process of applying for a work permit for you while you are waiting in Canada. So this developer should be good to stay for another 11 to 12 months, if not even longer, while searching for a new job.

> if your not paying, your definitely not the customer

This is correct enough. "p → q" does not imply "~p → ~q". In other words, if you are not paying, you are the product. If you are paying, you may or may not be the product. The adage does not say anything about this scenario.

Sidenote: Kill Sticky bookmarklet does not work on this website. Is there an improved version that would work here?

I don't agree with this assessment. Instagram today is rather close to the Facebook back in the day. It does not have groups, marketplace, news (unless you follow a news agency), etc. And it is very popular.

Does this mean the blue check mark no longer implies that the user is who they pretend they are? Anyone can pretend to be any celebrity or politician on Twitter and there is no way to tell which of the dozens of people who pretend to be Famous Person X is actually that person? Or is there still some form of real name policy and identity verification in place?

Thank you so much! I would greatly appreciate it if you could refer me to any resources regarding this, just so I can use them to convince potential future employers to give me a shot.

Hi Peter,

I am a Canadian citizen. My B.Sc. and M.Sc. are in mechanical engineering, but I have been working in the software industry as Software Developer and Data Scientist. Would I be eligible to get a TN to work in the software industry in the US? If yes, could you please refer me to resources to learn more about eligibility restrictions, e.g. details about what if any limitations I need to keep in mind when I apply to jobs in the US (e.g. if Data Scientist jobs are OK, but Software Architect jobs are not OK, etc.)?

Thank you!

You said "... if something works in China ..." You never said anything about invented in.

Like electric cars?

Bank of Canada's position is very nuanced, but all the nuance is ignored by their critics. They never asked employers not to raise wages this year. They asked them not to bake in e.g. 8% per year wage increase for the next 10 years if they are negotiating a long term contract with a union. The rationale is that while 8% raise this year is reasonable given the inflation rate, the inflation rate will not remain high for the next decade, so it will be too high further in the future. If many bind themselves with high wage increases long term, we will have high inflation for a long time due to the effect of the cost of labour on prices.

Depending on where you are, asking for permission may be either just good practice (to not be an asshole) or a legal requirement. I believe it's the latter in Belgium, where this photographer is located.

I only have a passing knowledge of NPM, as I am not a JS dev, but I believe you are correct. Poetry has taken good ideas from other ecosystems and applied them to the Python world.

I use poetry and forget the rest of them exist. It has worked well so far.

> pay is half or less than what equivalent level software jobs pay, with worse working conditions

You can say this part about basically any job and it would be true. Tech salaries and work conditions are ridiculously good, compared to any almost other job in the US and any other country than the US. Even other STEM jobs (e.g. civil or mechanical engineering) tend to have less than half the pay and much worse benefits and work conditions compared to software.
