I had a black republican candidate so a zoom town hall at my work, talking about how terrible it is that the liberals are tearing down Confederate statues.
How it was their heritage being torn down.
A number of people jumped on Blind and just face palmed after that.
I remember one interview I had with a candidate. It was for a database analyst position that required SQL.
The first round was typically a phone screen where I chat with the candidate, get to know them a bit.
Second round was code review. I asked them to do a SQL query that did x.
The queries were simple. The goal was to get the candidate to walk through the query.
I had one candid that, over screen share, wrote the query flawlessly. Then I asked them to explain what it was doing. The candidate froze.
I can get understand getting nervous so I moved onto an insert statement. I had them write one and then do another without using certain terms (often leading to a sub query).
Again, flawless. I asked what situations would you use one over the other.
Again, they froze. I started to get suspicious that they were cheating and had them, instead of typing the answer, say the answer. When they couldn't, I knew enough that it wasn't going to work.
Every time this kind of post comes up, I always ask what software is only supporting discord. The response has consistently been some niche software where it's only a handful of users. The other kind is devs trying to evade Nintendo lawyers because apparently that's a thing.
So...if you're going to post this meme, name and shame. Discord only support is bad. But I have never run into this in the wild.
No, it was a few years back when a researcher found that there was a plain text file of county employee social security numbers just sitting inside the JavaScript of a government website.
There are too many Google results from the upcoming election for me to sort through but suffice it to say, the guy was a class A idiot.
I use GitHub private repos for my home configuration stuff. So it's not open source since I'm the only one using it and I don't want someone else to know how to attack my network.
For certain configurations, self hosting doesn't make sense. For people like me, who would rather spend his time doing the stuff I care about instead of maintaining the stuff I don't care about, I'm okay giving Microsoft some "control" over my code for the convenience.
That said, I am thinking about moving my FOSS code off of GitHub since that is an option. I'd have to see their CI/CD pipelines though.
The only thing I hate about charcoal grilling is cleaning it. With gas, you just put the damn thing in high and burn everything off. With charcoal....so much scrubbing.
I think what the author meant was that it's impossible in the capitalist marketplace.
Joe Rogan is probably a good anti-example. His podcast (as I understand it anyway) is only available on Spotify. But Conan O'Brien, the Office Ladies, and even The West Wing Weekly (which hasn't been producing in years) is still available, for free, on any podcast platform.
But let's be honest here. Republicans are doing a speed run to impeach Biden so they can do the whole "SeE?! He WaS iMpEaChEd ToO!"
While it's simple for us normal people to understand that one crime doesn't pale in comparison to the other "crime", for the alt right, they aren't going for fair. They are going for power by any means necessary.
I find it really odd that a migrant caravan or immigrant surge always seems to start on January in even years, and often are more frequent in years that are divisible by 4.
They suddenly disappear, never to be heard from the Wednesday after the first Monday in November.
I can't quite put my finger as to why but maybe someone smarter than me can look into it.
[Lemmy] dominates English-speaking sites, and most Japanese people don't use this site because they can't speak English. Therefore, we cannot get answers from actual Japanese people.
Wait...
I want a news alert set up whenever porn stars get boned by rather large phalluses belonging to those with darker complexions.
If I want that, what search terms should I use?
