More accurate headline would be "75% of Software Engineers Who Reported Wrongdoing Claim They Faced Retaliation". I know there are some obvious cases where people were explicitly retaliated against, but I'm also not…
The Bolt is the best EV in its price range (<30K)
Profit sharing at a company that "wasn't doing great" is not a promise to be paid more.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say with this story. But the whole "work harder" is a business euphemism for "put in more hours". It probably wasn't the words that were used. Your dad was asking someone to put in…
Again, in my experience there is very little correlation between how much you pay for something and how rotten it is. And I find the opposite, when you get open source software and it's rotten, you can do something…
In my experience licensed products with paid support packages aren't any more secure, they just let you pass the buck when things go wrong.
Probably not, need to leave room for Alyx episode 2.
I think the reference is to the fact that on Windows you download some random .exe installer from some place on the internet and trust it, rather than selecting a signed package from a trusted repository that gets…
In what strongly typed language does the division of two integers result in a float?
I don't think it's "you aren't going to find any startups interested" as much as "you aren't going to find DoD interested in trusting startups to be around". No one gets fired for giving a billion dollar contract to…
I worked on the handheld JTRS radios some years ago, it was running Green Hills Integrity RTOS at the time.
The same fines and jail times associated with any foreign carmaker who issues a recall that isn't related to deliberate and intentional fraud.

This just seems to be a biased claim that Soylent hasn't done any "real testing". Do you have evidence of that? Soylent has been out for years and a lot of people have been drinking 100% Soylent for a long time now.
"unethical marketing"? Please explain..
That's an interesting point of view. Sort of like, when it comes to wiring up my new house, I'm going to go with the guy who doesn't purport to be a licensed electrician.

That link and Joel seem to agree. By default the contractor owns the IP, unless the contract contains the legal phrase "work made for hire." Maybe you should have kept reading?
Also consider what the average marijuana user is spending per day vs what the average heroin user is spending.
But more like 25 GB of equal QoS prioritization with other customers which may or may not be high speed, followed by reduced QoS prioritization in relation to other customers which still may be high speed but less…
Which word do you use? "The Data Plan Limited By Maximum Speeds, Current Network Capacity, and Amount of Time in a Given Month" doesn't fit on the pamphlet. Do we really need to go full lawyer on everything? I think…

Why do the rights of the local people trump the rights of people from "elsewhere"? The major question is what harm is being done to the local people by the existence of 50 story buildings, vs the harm to people that…
