The beta environment is completely distinct from the prod one. So unless you're on the beta servers they're not related.

I don't think anyone is doubting that giving people money improves their lives. That seems to be the conclusion of these studies. However what is seemingly _never_ studied is how to finance such an operation. The money has to come out of the system somewhere. Is it with new taxation on XYZ, or slashing services somewhere else etc.

Is this viewed as a bad thing? I suppose the person who waits slightly more might be annoyed, but would they rather their ticket cost more to avoid these line skips?

Distributed risk. Publisher's lose money on lots of content under the context of earning it on others. If somehow you could mega selectively pick it would be very expensive.

It seems that you are having some sort of an existential crisis. What's the point of doing anything if you're going to die? Why work or develop or anything?

If we are all just dust in the wind why not just have the best life you can. For me that includes sharing my life with my children and watching them grow and discover the magical universe we happen to be in.

I hear this all the time. Every 3PPT report I see is cranky if you have userid=2345 as you can enumerate it.

Personally I think it's stupid but this is a tempting solution.

Who is this in reference to? What is the source? Googling for the quote you gave doesn't have great results.

The license matters if you want corp adoption. SAP as an example won't ship GPL code due to the license terms.

I've not heard it forbidden but mainly speak to your manager to ensure that things are scheduled well enough.

A quick google shows snowmobiles are doing 0.5 G vs 3G.

So you want LinkedIn to give this 3rd party website a cease and desist order? You could at best contact LinkedIn however I'm not sure they'll jump all over this.

The one place I know that is this secure, you hand the thumb-drives to security who scan them and verify the contents are of no risk before handing them back. The same on exit.

As a Canadian this is all horseshit.

I wish somehow they'd also embrace anonymous accounts. I don't really want to give my full name and potentially photo ID to a random company to create an account to host $3 of content.

Anyone have any feedback on the recently discussed https://incognet.io/?

If you think being asked to return to the office is constructive dismissal please contact an employment lawyer prior to proceeding.

>Let them fire you and collect unemployment.

Don't know where you live. But here you wouldn't get unemployment for being fired with cause. Declining to do part of your job for no protected reason isn't a valid reason to collect.

I wonder if they have any assurances that the phone numbers will 'work' as lots of VoIP/sip numbers are blocked by discord / google / basically everyone.

Edit: Looks like it's twilio on the backend. Not sure how many places will accept it.

I see pricing, region locked?

That is a hot take. So if you post asking about abortion access as a 16 year old that should have your name plastered next to it.

The internet has saved many people by opening up questions you wouldn't ask your doctor.

The pricing here always confused me. I thought VPS's were supposed to be cheaper than hardware. At $50+/month you're into dedicated pricing in my mind.

Isn't this the natural order of how things go in tech? You burn millions or billions of dollars acquiring market share, then start pumping your customers for cash until they leave, or if you've done it right they can't leave.

I'm still waiting for CloudFlare to become a $5/month subscription for my personal sites.

>Imagine you run a business, doesn’t matter what kind. Prospects look up your service on, say, Google, where Google in many cases now shows them enough of an extract of your content so that they may never even have to click through to your page to learn about what you do. So you can never analyze, ab test, tag, sign up, retarget or monetize these otherwise-visitors who are no longer clicking through.

So kinda like the yellow pages in the phone book? Where I would go to the section on lock smiths and read the ads, and call the ones I want to talk to? You're wanting to basically force prospective clients to call each locksmith even if they don't want to. The company that allows ease of access gets the business. You're free to add a robots.txt blocking google today.

>its primarily concerned with the intermediaries reproducing the copyrighted news content or summaries/extracts on their own sites,

This is factually incorrect. The bill does not say "pay to summarize" it's pay to link. The notion that the news orgs are not getting any benefit out of this is insane to me. They're paying staff to manage their Facebook and Instagram accounts. Everything I know about businesses, and especially suffering businesses is that they don't want to burn a bunch of human hours posting stories that are apparently costing them money.

>neighbours evacuated or on alert are posting questions in private neighbourhood groups, on everything from food access, water use to garbage collection, and when answers are behind news articles, Meta is stopping other neighbours from posting links to those articles in response.

Sounds like we should stop depending on our news orgs who paywall public cood content anyways. That information should be on Government run websites.

>This “interference” is purposeful by Meta as a calculated protest against a bill that is not yet in effect and isn’t about that use case.

And I for one welcome it, our news orgs have a dying model and instead of adapting they're lobbing the government to bully the tech companies as they have money. Why have 400 meetings to discuss this bill and not change the text at all?

I live in Canada and I'm 100% on meta / Google's side.

If you mandate that to link to you I must pay you. Then you get to deal with people not linking to you. It's a bad law, and it's basically mugging tech companies to prop up big news orgs.

How to say your a Russian national without saying your a Russian national.

Blame the government :)

Anything regulated / FedRAMP etc has timelines for security issues and they simply don't care how you can explain it. It's just 'fix it'.

Please do read it again. They've not disabled any extension on any website. They've added a option for that to potentially do that.

Maybe in a world with an unlimited budget. I'm sure you're just thinking you spin up AWS with a million nodes and handle the traffic.

Not that database scaling can be an issue, or funding, or finding limits in your application.

It has been certified that it can/shouldn't produce any sparks or arcs in the event that it's in a gas filled room.

Yes, so of the 50+ instances one of them decided they didn't want their small community to be altered and disconnected.

I think still "generally" you only need to sign up to one instance.

You only need to sign up to one server generally.
