Never assume someone hitting you is going to have insurance.
I don't actually care. I have my own insurance. It'd be nicer to claim off theirs but I don't have to.
Of course, it'd be even nicer to not need a claim. When coming to an emergency halt (accident in front, or genuinely boneheaded driver nearly causing one, or just me failing to realise the traffic had started going 40mph slower than me) I generally look in my rear view mirror and very much adjust the extent of my braking to give the car behind as much space as possible while giving myself enough space to stop.
But I drive cars that can stop very quickly - good brakes, good grip, good reactions. So I usually have the luxury of not slamming the brakes on full, but instead adjusting the rate of braking to suit the situation.
So 15% of the US are shit selfish drivers. Nonetheless, if red light cameras make you slam on your brakes then you're driving badly.
It's a fucking junction. You don't have to go through it at the sped limit. You can slow down as you approach it, to give you more time to react if the lights change.
That's what normal people do. Sensible, safe drivers, that get to pick up their kids from the whatever-the-fuck proxy for their shit parenting place they've put them in because they didn't have an accident because they know how to fucking drive.
How about you just plan your life better - start with not having fucking children, you're clearly not equipped for it.
I'd fire your ass in a heartbeat.
You work for Sony by any chance?
What he's described is pretty standard IT security. What you want is complete fucking data loss.
Fire him? With cunts like you running the business he'll leave and get a job at a competent firm anyway.
I'm pro-life. I support the right for women to dispose of parasites that put their lives in jeopardy.
That's what you meant, yeah?
They're being arrested for possession in a state in which it is illegal to possess marijuana.
How is the legality of the purchase of that marijuana in one jurisdiction relevant to its illegal possession in another?
Tax receipts are pretty irrelevant on that front.
erm. Gambling is a noun.

It may not be 'a comedy' but it very intentionally includes a lot of comedy elements to it.
Maybe that's my problem. Maybe I like funny films rather than comedies.
You had the change the battery in your watch? How archaic.
Even when I'm not wearing an automatic mechanical watch with no battery, I wear a solar powered watch that charges itself.
I guess the battery in it will wear out, but not for another decade or two.
This is why I now love Sony.
"Why are you IT guys so expensive?" Because otherwise, Sony.
"Why is IT so slow?" Because Sony
"But I can and it's cheap" Yep. Sony.
In house IT isn't expensive because people are stupid, it's because doing it properly, securely, with data integrity, resilience, etc isn't easy, isn't cheap and needs checks and balances that sadly slow the processes.
Or Sony. But hey, it's your business.
You may not care whether 10 million people die in Seoul but generally speaking it would be considered somewhat bad.
So you never outsource your artwork or modelling or packaging or any other part of your development process?
Because other independent developers that I know do. And they outsource to Eastern Europe because the people there speak English and are very very cheap. Which means less work available locally, which means more competition for jobs, which means lower ages. Yet I still have to pay 8 times the fucking price of people in the country that helped write the software?
Sorry but pick option B. It's a global fucking world and I'm fed up with my quality of life being compromised so that people in other countries can get the same benefits for less.
When developers in Russia stop accepting work for companies in the UK then I'll consider giving a fuck about them getting to buy the same fucking products at half the price that they're available to me.
