You start somewhere at a new company. First month, you have to be there five days a week, so you can adapt and learn and meet everyone sooner or later. Second month, you can work from home one day a week. Third month, you can work from home two days a week. And so on, sixth month you can work 5 days a week from home if you want to and still pull your weight. This way you get to meet all your coworkers, the company can judge what happens and if you just slack as soon as you're not there they'll notice that and can fire you. As they should then.

Is it really that hard to be reasonable with that? There are solutions to every problem and having some clear and easy rules is important.

I will never understand why some people need to be so absurdly radical about that. Accept this as a solvable problem and fucking try to SOLVE it. Neither of both extremes is a solution.

It's a popular model internationally, but particularly in India, so I think there's like a billion of them.

https://www.malwarebytes.com/b... I don't know what size it is (was?), or how many of its staff are affected, but come on, acquire a new company one week, lay off 100 staff the next? How are people supposed to have a life? Companies that complain of falling staff loyalty have actions like this to blame. It's like trying to make a home and have a family in a video game level where every floor tile you touch falls away a few seconds later.

Trump DID dispute the election. He did it over and over and over in court. And lost in court.

That's when he started breaking the law. He had no obligation to break the law and took no oath swearing to break the law.

Can we also have compulsory voting like Australia?

That is all.

I hated it at first, but now I'm ok with it. One major advantage is indeed that it's pretty much identical to the settings on my iPhone and iPad, which makes finding things not harder, but actually easier.

This is what happens extroverts and salespeople feel uncomfortable. They create ways for other people to be wrong so they don't have to look inwards.

Trying to do a job interview without accidentally using your work account required black magic. Discovering that no matter what you do, personal Teams can't connect to a business Teams appointment was ludicrous.

I mean, there are a lot of problems that Meta didn't even recognize. What if you're wearing the Quest 3 and someone is going to sniff your crotch and then starts to touch you? You're only going to notice that then. The Apple headset recognizes this and shows the wearer a ghost approaching you.

I mean, yes. You can make this cheaper, but can you make it not suck then? What Apple demonstrated is heaps and bounds ahead of what Facebook has been doing. Meta isn't even recognizing the problems, much less offering solutions to them. Apple basically threw them against the wall and Zuck is slowly sliding down the wall and offering cheap excuses.

Apple has the will to be successful and has plans to do this. Meta is just dreaming.

Naturally the PIN for a bank card should not be kept with the card.

I tattooed mine on a very sensitive part of my body. The only problem is having to explain myself when I walk up to an ATM and drop my pants.

Oh, and it's a 14 digit PIN.

It's as free as the web site is free. If you want ChatGPT Plus you have to pay for it just as when you use it in your browser. Apple has nothing to do with this data.

No, really! Dozens!

For direct phone-to-satellite service SpaceX needs the new V2 satellites. They can only launch a smaller version of these on the F9 and not many of them per launch. So to get enough of them into orbit they need Starship. Starship development isn't going exactly to plan though. OK, the plan was more than ambitious, they were basically planning to whip out a fully reusable heavy lifter out in no time and get it operational and this on a budget others would hardly start to bend metal for.

But it is wise to not announce a launch date for this service. May take one year, may take four years.

Apple probably also was wise to use an existing provider for their emergency sat system (Globalstar) even if it has just a very narrow use case because data rates are extremely low and you basically need to point your phone just right at the sky for minutes. But in an emergency it already is much better to have than nothing.

The idea that software not signed by some entity in the country that they represent is installed any high-level official's phone is absurd. How did the world get this way?
