I know what he’s talking about- there was some javascript spec or something that google proposed, and nobody else bought in, so it never actually became part of javascript’s standard.

But google implemented it into chrome’s javascript engine anyway, and then used it for youtube. There was some fallback code if the new functions weren’t available, but, because of a ‘mistake’ they didn’t work and basically made playback ass for a while until the open source community basically debugged and fixed the issue FOR google, and then spent a few weeks cramming it down google’s throat that it needed fixed.

Iirc the guy that farmed the original sirracha peppers makes his own hot sauce now with them after the falling oot- tastes exactly like the old sirracha, just under a different name.

The article is a security company trying to hype their company ruining their reputation in an incredibly ill-thought out attack that companies will ABSOLUTELY remember.

Even worse, it just makes this security company look incompetent. Like a home security company that announces a huge vulnerability in Schlage locks- there’s a key that can unlock the lock included with every lock sold!!11!!!11!one!

So instead of blatant racism based on a lie, you’re just going to dogwhistle racism based on a lie.

Climate Collapse would have probably been more accurate.

If they were American, they would be following American values and laws.

It’s the ratio of likes/dislikes: OP’s ratio of likes/dislikes was shit compared to the person responding to them. That’s not typically how that works out, since the OP usually has more eyes, and thus votes, than the replies.

As a result, when it happens, it’s really noticeable and REALLY sticks out and says something, so it’s called getting ratio’d.

Getting ratio’d is something to be deeply embarrassed of.

They were being weak. Republicans don’t care, they’re just happy that a spot opened up they can fill. They need to stop giving Republicans shit for free and make them fight for it, instead of just giving them our country.

If they didnt care about public opinion, they wouldn’t have lied.

If they didn’t care about public opinion, they wouldn’t be pressuring media to squash knowledge of it so hard.

Look up the Paradox of Tolerance, or the ‘Contract of Tolerance.’

The only thing a tolerant society cannot abide by is intolerance.

And in this case? The rights and morals of free speech means we must- not can, must- abhor nazis.

Remind me again how the Trump case went?

Why are you pushing this guy to replace the non-working spy unit with a WORKING spy unit?

uh… ok? So now it’ll be controlled by someone who DOES want to be the next Musk or Zuckerberg?

I mean, that’s kind of my point though. You either get worse than useless, over detailed to the point of useless, or you have to spend weeks pulling hacky crap with tags to try to jury-rig your own useful billing system out of their clusterfuck.

… You realize it’s in the middle of the winter, right? All greenery is going to be dry looking, you can’t just not have greenery at all.

Amazon’s billing tool is the most useless thing I’ve ever seen lol. it’s like “$XYZ of your bill was server compute!” like, there’s 40 ec2s, elastic beanstalk instances, fargate, kubernetes, like what the fuck is ‘server compute’ and what’s the breakdown of the actual individual parts?

It’s not even unhelpful, it’s literally worse than useless lmao

The other thing they forgot to mention is that getting Amazon to actually tell you what anything will cost, or a breakdown of what your bill is, is like pulling teeth.

lmao, what an argument for them to make. “It’s not a budget cut, the unions fought us, won, and made us hand over more money after we slashed their already hilarious low budget!”

"No they didn’t, it was only a budget cut until the unions fought them and forced them to hand over more budget’ isn’t exactly the win you think it is here.

Even worse, despite call numbers increasing over 5x from 1960, the fire program has been completely unable to expand since 1960 and was basically completely at the mercy of people doing brutal amounts of overtime to keep things going… until they lost the ability to pay them overtime too! The fire department is absurdly understaffed and underfunded. Imagine still making the same salary as 65 years ago, while having to do 5x the work!

While the 53 million budget increase the unions managed to grab is a good improvement, along with the ~200 more trainee firefighters it allowed them to hire but aren’t yet ready to deploy, it’s the definition of too little and too late.

High winds preventing firefighting planes and copters, low water levels since the city has let nestle steal all of it for free, electrical problems to prevent pumps from sending water from afar, and not enough man hours to manage and prevent fire conditions in the first place- as it says in the article you posted, no amount of budget could have prevented this, because there was more to play here than just the budget. But enough people and man hours to properly manage things would have done a lot to limit the scope of the disaster.
