The US is insane and the rest of the world just watches us and laughs. I've been living and working outside the US for years now and it floors me that every time I've spoke to a recruiter about opportunities state-side they're almost always apologetic when explaining that the job is not remote eligible. As if I'm entitled to such a thing.

Nearly 50%? Good. Pre-covid people that wanted to stay at home rather than go to the office were either unemployed (congratulations) or self-employed (here's their opportunity!). But it wasn't really news.

What a weirdly entitled country we are.

All work is derivative.

Brave is a Chromium based browser so more of a repackaging than a competitor. However they used to claim it was de-googled but that claim seems to be a bit watered down to "by making many changes (and subtractions) from default Chromium, including disabling or removing privacy-harming Chromium features, proxying communication with Google services through Brave servers, and reimplementing sync to be encrypted client-side and never touch Google’s servers. All of these changes help prevent Google from tracking your browsing behavior."

What I do like about Brave is once you turn off their own advertising "features" you get a fairly privacy oriented Chrome-like experience that gets frequent and timely upstream updates. And with Firefox making some of the decisions they've been making it's good to have options.

Fork! Fork! Fork!

Seconding the points about the Android browser. If you want to drop a major update to a major product on a major platform (which I'd argue Firefox on Android was) at least make sure it has Feature Parity. The new Firefox app not only contains numerous unnecessary UI changes, drops support for many addons, it also performs some basic tasks worse than the previous version (text selection on pages with JavaScript elements is probably what mild Parkinson's feels like).

Furthermore...what percentage of Christians (or practicing members of other faiths) do you assume find this offensive. Do you presume to speak for all of them? Because otherwise you might be right to assume that no on cares regardless of your religion or the color of your skin. An important part of a modern society is the ability to peacefully coexist within a group with dissimilar beliefs. If your outlook is so threatened by a person wearing a colander, or a cartoon, or a editorial, or a different religion, perhaps you should more closely examine your own beliefs.

Pfft! It's like an affordable San Francisco with good food and more available parking. Unacceptable!

It's more like a manned/unmanned drone. After watching their first responder sales video I might actually be more confused about what it's first responder role might be. Who knows. Maybe Dubia will do something amazing with it.

They don't work in IT. If they did they wouldn't write the clap-trap they do. I've never seen a more balanced profession and yet they bemoan it like they understand something we're all missing. Get off your high-horse Dice and worry about something other then your short term page hits.

I'd just like to say...fuck dice. And their shitty "stories".

I'll agree with that. It may be a small percentage of returning veterans that could pose a treat, but because of the additional training and knowledge of military procedure a dissatisfied vet could pose a greater threat. However I'd assume the ones concerned about DoD Directive 8570.01 generally have a greater interest in protecting national security then the average civilian (not to say civilians have no interest; just that professionally as well as personally they should have a vested interest).
