No, I would not. ICE has already detained Canadians, and I'm not looking to try my luck. I've already cancelled a work trip to a convention in Vegas.
It's called a "swing bar". It's easy to open from tho2e outside with some duct tape and a rubber band, unfortunately. Plenty of easy instructions on YouTube.
First, the more difficult a task is, the more inherent difficulty there will be in "accurately" estimating the difficulty of the task. Fibonacci is used to represent the inherent lack of accuracy in more difficult…
That would be TurboLinks. It's going strong, and has seen significant improvements over time. Especially when paired with something like Stimulus and/or Reflex and/or Hotwire, you can make some _very_ snappy feeling…
For one or two standards? There's just the headache of getting approval to spend the money. But when it gets to dozens/hundreds, plus requiring vendors to have their own copies, it quickly multiplies into a massive…
I'm convinced of the same thing. I once had a rather enlightening conversation with an Agile consultant who had never read the manifesto. When I showed him, he said "I'm not sure I agree with this".
Equifax isn't just "still around". Their stock price is up nearly 50% from the day before their data breach crash.
There was a Netflix documentary series on pandemic planning (in the works before COVID, but the timing was fortuitous). In it, there was a CDC/WHO expert who traveled around to various health…

I've had the exact same experience. Throw in a large dose of "no repeat customers" due to us prioritizing Feature A for Potential Customer B over fixing existing gaps that affected actual customers, and it was a…

I wouldn't be so quick to jump to the conclusion that they were _actually_ union. They may very well have been. But companies have a long, proud history of playing VERY dirty tricks in response to unionization. A former…
The "uniform" thing is very true. I'm a software developer in the Pacific Northwest who loves to wear suits (they look damn good on me). I was told long ago that jeans and a hoodie are the de-facto uniform of my…
>On top of that, a lot of people won't want to go back to the office, not because they enjoy working from home, but because they will still be afraid of getting the virus. Being at the office probably won't feel normal…
Aside from the incident in the linked story, fictional characters (like The Count from Sesame Street) have the blue checkmark. So it doesn't seem to me that it's there to verify "who is the owner of this account".

I had a similar experience. I joined a company about a month before Google launched a competing advertising product (you know, the kind of product Google never kills). The CEO got stuck in some sort of pivot loop where…
I've been using a Vagrant VM and VSC remote via SSH for the last two months, and it works really, really well.
That's almost exactly what Vancouver does. Biggest difference is that instead of image processing on the video feed, there's sensors on the tracks at every platform.
>Yet for some reason people still insist that estimating non-trivial software is not only possible, but trivial. It's always maddening to get into debates about this stuff with project managers who believe this…
Considering the posters of /r/wallstreetbets have a leader board going to see who can glitch the most leverage, it's well within the realm of possibility https://old.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/drt5tr/guh_...
Spent 2 years there as one of the tech expats you spoke of, and you are 100% right. The country runs on expats paid with oil money.
>In my opinion, the best yardstick for a health care system is how long you have to wait to be treated for cancer. By that yardstick, countries like Canada and England stack up quite poorly when compared to the USA I…
