I don't think that's it. It's whether we should stick to a single "time." The US tried year-round DST back in the '70's. It was quickly repealed. Because it's idiocy. For centuries (millenia?), noon was when the sun was highest. Business/working hours were made around that simple fact. In the 1800's, the railroads created "standard time", with timezones, which made scheduling vastly easier because they didn't have to figure out local time (noon) for every stop. Timezones were a compromise where "high noon" was somewhere in the middle, adjusting for political and geographic boundaries.

So, now it's those eastern elites who live on the eastern edge of a timezone wanting permanent DST. For them wall time is still only 1/2 hour off from true "high noon", just in the other direction. But they give no consideration for those on the western edge of a timezone, who are forced to live 1 1/2 hours from the real noon. Fuck them.

You're as big an idiot as the bill's sponsor, who said creating a permanent Daylight Saving would bring "more usable daylight hours throughout the year."

DST doesn't provide "extra daylight hours." It doesn't affect the number of day/night hours a single bit. Maybe if we outlawed winter?

>Employees have characterized the data tracking tool as "dystopian," according to messages viewed by CNBC, with some workers expressing fear that personal information could be leaked.

That "data tracking tool" is Facebook itself, which they themselves have built.

Are you really so ignorant of the US role in WW2, or are you just trolling?

Now let's look at what happened since then. Perhaps you'd prefer a NAZI world without bananas.

I seem to have had a very similar progression. I still tend to think in "/." replacement operators, but it's been perhaps 15 years since I've really used Wolfram Language.

Stop giving them shit.

Do you really say "lol"?

If they don't have admin/root rights on their own machine... more is the pity.

If a Meta employee hasn't figured out how to use an intervening device driver with a random number generator-with-timer, maybe another gig is in order.

I believe in human rights, too. But any good hacker has sufficient skill to thwart such madness whilst still doing their job. Oh, and I'll be there's an AI vibe code generator they could use with but one token to get the job done.

I've been a CLI coder for decades. Mouse use mostly gets in my way.

THAT SUCKS BRO

It would be an entire 7 years later before anybody managed to put a thermistor in the package to stop cpus from destroying themselves. An eternity in that era.

Rich people like Musk generally just have the doctors/nurses make house calls. I have my doubts that Musk is going the legitimate medical treatment route but it's a popular practice. Michael Jackson had a Dr. Feelgood at his house basically all the time.

>But, he didn't even have backups.

From the summary:
>deleted the company's entire production database and backups

So you're right, and wrong. They had "backups" which weren't really backups because they apparently weren't kept offline and separately.

I somehow doubt your intellect even approaches that of a vegetable.
