The landlord is responsible for paying for the actual building and it's upkeep. Owning a home (apartment, condo, townhome, duplex, free standing, etc - doesn't matter) is a LOT of time and energy. The landlord simplifies this to "pay me each month, and here's a number when there are problems. We also might stop by to service things that need regular maintenance".

Cars are expensive, but that's why taxis and Uber exist - they absolve you of having to spend the time and energy outright owning a car and maintaining it. You don't ask for a ride then skip out on paying.

Just cuz you can't / don't pay your rent doesn't mean the landlord gets to ignore his own mortgage and taxes. I'm all for letting someone get 2-3 months behind and having an opportunity to catch up or find alternatives. But after that you're abusing someone else's property and goodwill and should be legally exposed to being kicked out.

So they go in depth on how people got "job fished" ... but why? Did they actually "do work" for this company? Putting together marketing crap? It really doesn't go into that. I mean, they were idiots to work "for free" for 6 months, then on a 100% contingent basis after that? I understand that desperate times means desperate measures and all that, but that's ridiculous.

Or was this a scheme to get access to employee PII, like their NIN/SSN, direct deposit info, etc? To... wipe out the non-existent funds for these poor folks?

I use CUDA-based GPUs constantly in factory machine vision equipment. But we're talking 10s of units - but they hit a sweet spot besides games.

I'm jonesing for a few Ax000 cards to power the AI training server though.

Back in my day we had 60Hz, or 50 if them fer-en-ers brought their TVs with 'em. And we liked it!

Wait wait wait - my PhD wife talks all the time about "meta analysis". Does this mean she's now going to get a doctorate by Facebooking^H^H^H Meta-ing all day?

There are penguins in the tropics. African penguins are also known as jackass penguins, because of their braying-like noise.

Because *holy crap* paying for quality journalism is a frigging crime. Or should everything be free as in speech?

And then.. and then people could return the empty container to a designated facility and get their $0.10 back!

Oh wait - 10 US states already do that:

OMG I'm tired of hearing about Yahoo and AOL. Ever since the days of unending AOL CDs I've hoped it would just die.

Okay - new idea: start a crowdfunding campaign to buy both properties. Then assign all IP to some friendly holding company (FSF? Wikipedia?) and just let them die already.

I'm too lazy to find it, but Elon has given a nod to Tintin and Buck Rodgers before.

The Sarbanes Oxley Act also held executives personally responsible if SEC filings were found to be fraudulent. Since its rarely the CxO that is in the weeds of all the financial statements where tom-foolery happens, they have to trust their team to be 100% honest in the eyes of the law, and basically not send them to prison. That comes at a big risk premium - aka even higher salaries & compensation.

Though "personally accountable" as you say it could just mean they "owe" that money. In which case they'd hash out some sort of insurance policy.

Because quality journalism costs money. If you want to read about this on some Insta-face-twat feed, go ahead. I prefer to send some money to the Times (and a select few other news organizations) so they can keep doing editor-reviewed quality journalism.

Anyway, the NYT *does* offer some stories for free, which are in the public interest. I believe all directly COVID-related stories were exempt from the paywall.

Or, Intel is pointing out that it plays in an excosystem with lots of options. With Apple the is the Apple way or.... well.... screw you

There are literally services that scan all public git commits and report vulnerabilities. In my case it was a one-use cloud service connection string hard-coded and checked-in for a throw away pair coding session (and throw away cloud service). But the point stands - have your always-watching service scan for regex patterns in commits in certain repos and hope you get a bite. Nefariousness ensues.
