Especially in sales and finance: every call is potentially on the record, and that's a problem.

A lot of internal communication in these departments is, to put it mildly, legally not without interest. A quick chat after a meeting is completely off the record, an email is not.

Wow, whataboutism and unfounded ad hominem in a single argument.

Bold strategy, let's see if it pays off!

Wouldn't that break the necks of everyone over 50?

First of all the nitpicky stuff: Mac OS never used anything FreeBSD in the kernel. The kernel is XNU/mach, FreeBSD only supplies the user land. Pedantic, but we have a cliche to defend.

Anyway, I think you got the update part backwards. Apple doesn't update its side of the deal. MacOS ships with old bsd apps, simply because apple doesn't care all that much about it.

No. Large organizations suck at managing IT, simply because it's not crucial for them to keep it managed and they usually have enough institutional insulation to mitigate the impacts. Whether that insulation is money or disregard of the public doesn't matter all that much.

No, there is not. There literally can't be, because if a "code" would be underhanded criticism, it would be illegal. Simple as that.

So you end up with a bunch of people trying to interpret the codes from both sides, but if they use the same interpretation is impossible to tell.

...or it could mean anything else. You don't know which secret code book the author used or if there even was a screening process.

In essence, references are meaningless. They don't contain any useful information.

No.

But at least for work references, we are legally not allowed to say negative things about an employee, which is kind of bonkers.

Facebook is huge and has very diverse teams/departments. It's absolutely possible the guys who know what security is, and the guys who build app xyz are in different departments, countries, continents.

The capitalists want us to believe otherwise, but large corporations are just as convoluted and inefficient as a planned economy.

2 days per frame.

That's a question a hacker shouldn't ever ask.

You are now. Herzlichen Glückwunsch.

That's bullshit, we don't do camel case!

And let's be honest: the Mongolians were probably not worse than any other invader. War, destruction, looting and raping is kind of par for the course for most civilizations in history.

Yes, but this time for realsies!

Try teaching it German compounds. I'm a big fan of artisanal compounds, but getting spell check or the swipe-o-matic to accept them is an unwinnable battle.

I mean, what is his point? We should have worse software because then the devs are volunteers?

Is Linux now supposed to work like early Olympics?

Yeah, but we are the real™ Linux community, not like those splitters from the community of Linux!

If it looks fishy, it probably is. Simple as that.

A proper business should have proper addresses, imprint, contacts.

Yep. Fast, repetitive, as little vocals as possible.

Usually I hate that kind of music, but if I want to get things done, Gabber is my drug of choice.
