If supporting the art, supports the artist, who actively supports a bad cause, I do not. JKR and anything that furthers the anti-trans movement can go screw. If someone co-opts something, then it's trickier, but I expect the original artist to help when they can and support them directly, like Marvel's Punisher.

I don't know y'all, and when people interact, there's no true community here. I'll probably not remember most of your names, similar to reddit, digg, slashdot, etc etc...

Are you against using a single letter variable like e for element in iterating over things?

And lets you easily write metal languages due to the way you can pass around blocks. Think configuration as code type stuff.

This makes me want to write a function for you to add to numbers where the variables are leftumber and rightnumber, instead of x and y.

It's a lifelong title.

The problem is risk. A lot of the bureaucracy that exists for any company is risk mitigation. The wiping of servers, or using suction cups, or any of that is a security against a large dollar amount to spend if something goes wrong. But that's just the cost of security, it's worthless if it isn't tested. If a locked door isn't rattled or deter someone, it might as well have been unlocked.

He took a gamble and the doors were not rattled and everything worked. The thing to criticize here is really the carelessness. What if one of those servers got out and somebody stole all of that data? What if while under those floorboards he got damaged, or something related did? And it's not just these two questions, there's stuff in that article that probably wasn't covered that we can question.

There may be things that are not in the book that we can question, and that is the problem with Elon. He needs a string of bad luck to show how truly dangerous he is.

Proof is the burden of those who make the assertion. Is ccleaner useless? It has yet remained to be seen.

His rationale is that on a stock install, it removes entries, and that it might break some things. But he doesn't show much more than stuff being removed. He doesn't reason that windows may or may not clean them up itself, or explain which programs are crashing. It's a 6 minute video you can probably Skip. There may be better videos with more evidence out there.

This was said 20 years ago and none of it was true. Outsourcing is big but we don't outsource our highest level jobs. The typical architect role or senior engineer roles
