But they said there isn't no racial profiling.

Why would the police lie?

I mean, ignore the thousands of times when they did or victim blamed and ruined their life...

I'm sure the YouTuber meant well and did a deep dive, but without your timestamp, it would take the viewer 5 minutes before getting to the answer.

Where I can literally skimmed a article in 15 seconds.

Unfortunately this article sucks and doesn't even explain it.

Spoilers:

Sysco provides a lot of restaurant ingredients/premade food. Your chili from fancy restaurant might just be the same damn thing from Wendy's, the dollar store, and the niche "homemade" food cart.

They might decorate it a bit differently once they open the bag.

This isn't a good or bad thing. It's how you can order fries in Maine and California, and they still taste the same. But also why some restaurants, side dishes taste the damn same.

Remember when Trump demanded MAGA supporters protest out of the courthouse and barely a half a dozen showed up?

His physical support is waning. But there's still assholes who vote Republican so don't slip up with his numbers.

Twitter confirmed that the breach occurred on November 4, 2014. Yet, the company remained unable to determine who was affected by the issue before September 5, 2017. Between September 5, 2017, and January 11, 2019, Twitter's breach also impacted users from the European Union and the European Economic Area (EEA).

Tldr: it took five years and they were hit with a "astonishing" $500k fine.

They have to comply with GDPR as their website is accessible from EU countries, as long as they have data to identify a specific EU citizen.

There's currently American laws that if not followed, States have a right to pursue a lawsuit. Many American companies shrug and wait for the paperwork. Often, it takes a few months for that paperwork, and then years before it moves through the courts. Imagine a EU company getting that paperwork. Besides the initial "I'm in the EU, I don't have to follow your American laws", the court case would take YEARS to materialize.

Now flip that for American companies following EU rules.

A law is only as strong as those who enforce it. Look at Twitter. How many warnings will the EU give and still not do anything about it?

I'm not saying this to wave my freedom around. This is just reality. Major American companies to this day still are lax around GDPR. So a small 1-person company is going to shrug and do whatever they want. Until they do something outrageous like terrorism or CP, they'll at most get a strongly written letter.

And by then, they'll just bankrupt their company and start a new one.

Again, not saying that to be a jerk. I've been on that side of arguing that our products should follow GDPR, watching some manager tell me fuck off, then literally nothing happening for years.

So yeah, I'm pretty jaded.

A lot of people really believe that if you shout "Hey that's illegal" to a criminal, they'll stop.

If I'm running a site to sell harvested data, I'll wait for the lawsuit, which can be multiple years.

Lol they got caught.

No shit. Leave us the hell alone so we can focus on deliverables.

The whoe "tech layoffs" always sound scary, but we are still in high demand. And we'll keep jumping because fuck your BS micromanagement.

This is how it should be.

All the other live service games started with that concept as a core pillar, that also sacrificed gameplay. And so many have failed.

It's now the "Pay us more if you want your delivery to survive."

I was sending flowers to my aunt, and it had a big warning about how tipping goes to the delivery driver, and it could mean the difference between good service and great service.

These fucking flowers were $150, and 20% is $30.

I sucked it up and paid but I'm going to just hire a random person next time to pick flowers from a graveyard at these prices.

The size of the patties are ridiculous.

They're smaller than the pickles now.

Seriously! To push through in spite of Nintendo's reputation.

Fox News and right wingers really helped push fake threats.

My friend is a Rogan fan and he's so terrified of certain cities, believing they're overrun with migrants, as if he currently doesnt live in the top 10 dangerous cities in America.

It's fucking bananas.

Going to throw a shout out for Against The Storm.

It takes my favorite part of Age of Empires (setting up the dang base) and distills it into the perfect game.

Now if someone can figure out how to make the other half (the combat) really good.

It's a mobile game from NetEase. I think it's a excellent opportunity to be a madlad and review it like that because fuck them.

Aww boo hoo I can't review any more of their shitty gacha games?

Bingo! It's written in a "cover my ass" but that ass can get kicked by the courts.

If a dev only designs a solution that fits for exactly the current situation but doesn't allow any changes, it's not a good dev.

I don't think anybody is arguing this. Nobody (in my decade-plus in this industry) actively codes in a way to not allow any changes.

PHP does that. I think a few others too.

Or maybe it was my IDE. I don't remember. Not a issue I deal with frequently.

SO was in decline anyway. Most answers you'll find are several years old and outdated, because some idiot thought the new ones are duplicates.

There's been a new thing (for the past two years anyways) where some power tripping user would edit the highest rated answer, causing new users to fail to get recognition.

So a new user answers a old question with the latest way to do something based on new language specs... And they'd get 1-2 votes.

Why even contribute then?
