Yeah, at they approach 9999 surely they will start using larger variables to store the year, and all of the 2000’s code will have moved out of production (2000’s and not 1970’s because we may have fixed the 1970’s code by now.)

Insurance companies in Des Moines, Iowa, USA tended to be heavy users of COBOL near the year 2000. If you want a job writing COBOL, I suggest looking there. I am sure at this point they will do some training.

Um, the lesson was available, but not everyone is doing to reading.

Paraphrasing something a human said: With data and instructions mixed, there is no way to prevent an AI from following directions found in data. #Fuck if I know. Also, I am a real human, and this fits with my understanding of cybersecurity and why we don’t mix data with directions.

Not even a fucking made up sentence. That was a real developer expressing a real problem.

Like you, I only replace when there is a major problem. When there are repairs I can do myself, I do them to extend the life of the phone. My previous phone had corrupted internal memory or storage, and that was that.

I have run into issues where newer software runs poorly. I solve this issue by not running that software.

I have never purchased the exact same model, but they tend to not be offered at that point. I have purchased the same model line. I had really enjoyed the Motorola G line, especially the extended battery iteration.

Building codes, at least the ones I am aware of, require the light switch inside the room with the light next to the door, similar to how nearly every room you have ever been in. (Everyone knows of exceptions.) This means either corners have been cut, at those switches should control things within the room with the switches.

As the interviewer if attention to detail and following build codes and specifications is important at this company. Is there a culture of safety, or are corners cut that put my life at risk.

Fake cigarettes.

Every groups have a “testing”. Some also have a “production”.

77,302,580 people is not half of America. It is 49.8% of the folks that bothered to vote.

More usefully,

In the 2024 presidential election, 73.6% (or 174 million people) of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote and 65.3% (or 154 million people) voted according to new voting and registration tables released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Me too!

And I quickly found out why everyone else had left. (The job after was good though.)

Yes. With rechargeable batteries, or some obvious way to change the batteries.

Do be certain to advertise them here, so that I am aware these are even for sale. Or take preorders for my shoe size. (Why in the hell is everything NOT a preorder these days?)

It is possible to do an internet search for a date range. Looking at 2016, there were many articles regarding fascism and Trump. Here is just one:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/realspin/2016/05/31/yes-a-trump-presidency-would-bring-fascism-to-america/

It is true that many people were uncertain if Trump was a full on fascist, or if he was thwarted by a lack of reading. Which sounds like a lie. I am cherry picking this quote from the article, the article itself is not particularly cherry picked.

Do you think that Trump is consciously using fascist tropes, or do you think that he’s just sort of stumbled into this?
I doubt it’s conscious. I don’t think he’s a bookish man. I’m sure he’s never read a book about Hitler or Mussolini.

Edit: editing for clarity.

Is that even typical? At work we have like one Windows computer per person. But everyone has like 8 computers at home.

Few run Windows in multi-user anymore. Most servers are doing Linux.

I am assuming simultaneous, not one at a time multi-user. Which could happen.

That only applies in this situation if the requestor is also the owner of the building, as in the OP it is assumed the requestor owns the computer.

(On a multi-user system it is unlikely running Windows.)

Humanity has been fucked many times before. Humans migrated out of Africa TWICE. We have been nearly wiped out several times. Maybe this will be the last time. Maybe Humans will migrate out of Africa a third time…

Yes. People fight for the $50K to $100K jobs, missing the boat on the $250K jobs.

Do the bots do anything in particular that is annoying, or it is the large number of posts?

Thank you. That is reassuring.
