You work at IBM or something? Who even still uses VHDL?

You can’t see something small right behind you with that.

Bet they made the processor you used to write that comment.

Yeah, I think the premise is actually “What did people say 20 years ago that they don’t now.”

EIT is a refundable tax credit. Meaning if your total tax burden is less than the credit, federal government will pay you the difference. A part of the child tax credit is the same.

It would be pretty crappy to never give a description of a painting to a blind person though. Like could you imagine if we never described the Mona Lisa to a blind person and they just to guess what it was a picture of.

They always ask you to remove it, even if the check is just against your ID and not the automated facial recognition.

Why are we trying to give up everything that makes us human by offloading it to a machine

Because we don’t enjoy actually doing it. No one who likes writing is asking chat gpt to write for them. It’s people who don’t want to write but are required to for whatever reason. Humans will always try to come up with a way to not have to do the work they don’t want to but still get it done, even if it’s not as good. Using tools like this is very human.

You get an offer letter that spells some of that out, but it isn’t a binding contract.

An employment relationship in the United States is presumed to be “at-will,” i.e., terminable by either party, with or without cause or notice. Indeed, a majority of employees in the United States are employed on an “at-will” basis, without a written employment contract, and only with a written offer of employment that outlines the basic terms and conditions of their employment.

They phased out back scatter x-ray like a decade ago. They only use millimeter wave, which doesn’t have ionizing radiation.

Or the result of cost cutting…

Only if there’s solution you can bring about that isn’t one of the evils.

You are morally responsible in some degree for 20 people dying rather than 10. Though, in that example, I seriously doubt that most people would think the moral choice is to shoot the 10 people. Probably because we instinctually know that wouldn’t be the end of it or none of the deaths seem inevitable.

Yes, you can. It’s just a trolley problem, and you’re choosing to not flip the switch. It’s still your choice and has consequences.

Except the other option is worse. And you are complicit in whoever wins if you don’t vote at all.

It doesn’t understand .co.uk domains.

It’s crazy how different people are. The idea of sitting through a video to do something like this is so painful to me. Like I find it useful for physical things where seeing the motion can be helpful, but I still generally find doing things that way awful. Please, please, please just give me written instructions for things. Especially if I’m going to need to refer back to it a few times (e.g. there are multiple steps that take a bit of time).

Any kind of executive policy to ignore laws works kind of like this. DACA, the lack of federal prosecution for Marijuana, etc. The current administration doesn’t allow it, but you can still face consequences later.

Do VPNs make that feature kind of pointless? We can’t access most things from home without going through a VPN. Every where I’ve worked (and gone to school) was like that.

Does your RSVP have options for remote vs in person? My options are “accept”, “decline”, and “tentative.” If I want to tell someone I’m remote that day, it needs to be a separate message.
