I was one of those director people who had to give the bad news once. The big boss chickened out of firing everyone, except his brother. So I got left with the task of letting go of the guy with the pregnant wife, as well as the whole rest of the team. In addition, he didn't call to apologize to any of the investors (he'd blown up a hedge fund), he had our investor relations guy go that. Some of those investors literally said "ok I'm gonna lose my job when I tell my boss about this".

So yeah, we need a name for that kind of abdication.

I was told that a bank would not approve a transaction because the signature I had provided in a Word document was not similar enough to the one on file.

Helpfully, they provided me with a screenshot of the one they had on file... one copy and paste later and the problem was resolved.

Well maybe one could argue that you can have a decent browsing experience, I like to be able to view content without JS enabled (I'm a uMatrix user myself).

But as you say, as soon as you want to do something like a form that's a bit complicated then of course some browser side interactivity is going to be very helpful.
A little detuning goes a long way! It gives it that full warbly phase sound. 5-10 cents down is usually my sweet spot for synth plugins. I even detune one string on each key on my piano about 5-10 cents down, it gives it some life! Natural phasing sounds awesome.
Yes. There are different philosophies for how to write CSS, but assuming you're aiming at something like BEM (Block, Element, Modifier) style, it's typical to start with a reset of the raw elements into a standard form, and then follow that with the CSS for you class components, and finally some !important override utilities. Basically all the CSS philosophies agree that you should never use #id selectors at all and use of element selectors should be (mostly) limited to resets.

You can see and comment on write.as posts from other ActivityPub (AP) platforms that support it like Mastodon. It's up to the platform to implement it since the AP specification leaves implementation details mostly up to the implementor.

A recent discussion here on HN covers it pretty well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23852036
This would hold true for any government owned entity...

In practice, the 'same entity' are very different people in government with different mandates.
What I mean is that browsers used to zoom in a way where all the texts were automatically resized but nowadays the zoom works pixel-by-pixel, removing this issue.

I've seen them stick with the family talk. "Due to the current markets we are going to have to pull together as a team ( no bonus, no retirement, no Christmas party, prepare for pay cuts)." Then when people quit they get blamed for the failure of the company for not being team players.
Wouldn't that just be how it works now?
My heart brought me a solid anxiety disorder. I have ventricular extrasystoles, been to a couple of different cardiologists, done longtime ecg monitoring, echocardiograms and everyone told me my heart is fine, and I should chill.

Coupled with low blood potassium levels and increasing distrust in my heart, I developed a fear that I could get ventricular tachycardia, and basically die instantly. I'm 33.

I know it's slightly off topic, but just be happy if you don't feel your heart beating and it's doing its work without you noticing. In my case, my anxiety disorder and fear is increasing adrenalin, making my heart stumble even more. It's so annoying knowing all that, but the emotions are just overwhelming and it's really hard to fight this.
You're being downvoted because network effects aren't the same as corruption. Although it is certainly unpleasant to consider that government officials might be making decisions more favorable to one company than another in the hope or expectation that that they will get a board seat five years hence, it is worth noting that if they upset one company now, they may get the board seat on the other company. And since anything can happen in five years, it may in many cases make better sense to make the right decision, rather than the self-interested decision. Moreover, quite independent of any decisions they make, they remain valuable since they have contacts and know government processes.

So cash in hand is a bazillion times worse than a board seat.

But what they were still stands at what we knew they were when first reported, hysteria. (aka stars, planes and maybe, perhaps an occasional domestic DJI drone)

It always helped me to do an absolute basic concepts course on a new technology I learn.

Like, sure I can play around in Photoshop or Eclipse or CSS or JavaScript and find most things.

But a good 101 course is worth so much saved time.

Most of the stuff in that article was mentioned in a CSS box model course I did 10 years ago.

People were always baffled how I learned all this. Well, I read the docs!

They always assume every one learned like them, by trying stuff out all of the time, until they got something working. Then they iterate from project to project, until they sorted out the bad ideas and kept the good ones. With that approach, learning CSS would probably have taken me 10 times as long.

Sure this doesn't teach you everything or makes you a pro in a week, but I always have the feeling people just cobble around for too long and should instead take at least a few days for a more structured learning approach.

What I didn't learn about CSS in a basic course and what cost me multiple weeks to fix, was `pointer-events: none`. Keep this in mind when your clicks stop working after you pulled some new CSS ;)
There’s a really great documentary about how criminals used the disconnect between perception of corruption and actual corruption in Vatican City to launder money for decades. (And still do, really.) The name of the movie escapes me but I’m commenting in hopes that someone here will know.

> Most of the comments here are about German government corruption and incompetence.

Yet neither is addressed by the articles you linked.
If illustrating corruption or incompetence was your intend, then you simply missed the mark with those articles.

There's suitable, prominent and recent examples for both, but "Euro bad" definitely isn't one of them.
I submitted the HTTPS variant of the link but at least in some browsers (Firefox for me) the images don't work. So you might want to just use that HTTP variant if you are only there to consume information and not provide any: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/well-hello/
Too bad you had a bad experience with your dev, but seriously, you just picked up css, people have been fighting it for years because of browser support. There's a reason why there are css reset stylesheets, and frameworks out there. If you are using it in one project great, but when you do it for living you will ended up building your own framework if you are not already using one. SASS also saves you so much time in development.
>ultimately caused damages to many owners whose property values went down as a result of their neighbors running illegal short term rentals

Nobody is entitled to their property remaining a certain value. The same kind of argument is why NIMBYs try to stop the development of new housing, artificially propping up property prices and making it hard for new residents of a city to afford homes.
+1 for Beyond Compare! I have tried many different comparison tools and none of them come even close. BC just does it all and does it better than anyone else. File comparison, folder comparison, etc.

My personal favorite is the Git mergetool integration with gives me a three-way merge (with the common ancestor). This is absolutely indispensable when trying to do complex merging and has saved me countless hours.

There's some polyfill for IE11, maybe it would be worth a try ?

https://stenciljs.com/docs/browser-support/

It seems it is necessary for browsers that have been abandoned and that are never going to have TLS 1.3 support: IE11, Edge 16-18

Personally I'd leave it just to push users onto abandoning those browsers that will never support TLS 1.3.
Perfluorooctanoic acid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene#PFOA
From my perspective of paying attention to some of the articles that have been coming out over the years and reading into the science a bit, one of the big factors seems to be identifying all of the genes necessary for supporting the pathway that synthesizes these compounds. If you are only producing a single protein that is coded for by a stretch of DNA it is fairly straightforward to insert that into bacteria. If what you want to do involves multiple steps carried out by enzymes to transform one molecule into another then you have quite a different challenge. It's the difference between extraction of raw materials vs. building a supply chain that takes those raw materials and refines them and combines them into finished goods.
How do you figure that? The Saudis have a ton of cheap oil, but they still want high prices and high demand. It's one thing to say they will sell to petrochemical forever, but IMO peak oil was reached in 2019, which isn't good for countries whose main revenue is oil.

Even though losing the job is not a punishment, not everyone even lost his job.

Andreas Sheuer is still in charge of transport as a federal Minister, despite the 500,000,000 € heavy corruption scandal.

Von der Leyen got even "promoted" to EU-lead position after heavy corruption scandal last year when she was a Defense Minister of Germany.

Not only Germany, but in the whole EU commission leadership it would be hard to find someone without corruption scandal, accusation or conviction.

We have that where I am. The taxes are actually quite high (~40% of my monthly mortgage is tax escrow) compared to wherever else I've lived.
That’s because you can’t buy culture. Bigger business has never been good at that and the youthfulness of the tech leadership world over the last 15-20 years is why this is a thing. We’ve attached the pretty-ness and warm feelings of realism to a hollow/fake implementation idea. Catered meals matter to those that haven’t quite grown up yet. What really matters is your boss dropping by the hospital when your child is born, you showing up and standing quietly by his side when some one he loves passes away, colleagues poking fun and reminding you how old you are your birthdays, dropping their tasks on a dime to come rescue you when your broke down on the side of the road. That’s life baby and they’re by your side as we all trudge through it.

You don’t build “the family” on the concept of it’s value is purely what you’re getting out of it. You base it on sacrifice and the understanding that the work part is only the mission, the team is the reason you’re there and is probably what matters most.

We have forgotten that the things that matter most in life and the things that build that kind of culture everyone mocks as “not real”, its all built on necessary sacrifice and substance that can not ever be quantified on profit & loss spreadsheet.

Maybe the issue is that people SAY they want a culture that cares, but really it’s just not something you really want to work for. Do your job, collect a paycheck and go home. Maybe people should just be ok with the fact that in reality, that’s all they want. Otherwise, move to a rural area, take a job that pays a little less on a team that has these family qualities. We do exist, I think it’s just not something g you REALLY want or value.
Just taking Saudi as an example, the oil is owned by the Royal Family, who then use the proceeds to pay for basically all government expenditures (taxes are very low in SA – for example there is no income tax).

When the price is below $40/barrel, they can no longer pay for these services effectively, which obviously causes immediate problems, but in the long term will make it harder and harder for the Sauds to maintain control of an ever-more-disgruntled populace.

I feel like this was made pretty clear in the article.
We have mainstream electric vehicles now and more are on the way. A very large part (40-60%) of petroleum is used for gasoline. That will wreak havoc on oil producing places, although who gets hit how hard and what consequences it has is impossible to say.

IE11 and down is 1.73%, not all 6%. The rest is mostly old versions of popular browsers but tiny browsers like the Chinese QQ Browser are also included at the link provided.

Anyway, I can add a note to call out that it specifically doesn't include IE for people who might not follow the resource linked at the end of the sentence you're talking about where IE11 is the first browser in the list.

Waste isn't the issue with big folders; filesystem performance (especially NTFS, which is to say Windows users, which is to say ~90% of users) degrades pretty horribly when folders have tens of thousands of files. Even on Linux filesystems, having a folder with a 100,000 files in it was having issues.

> Can I ask what it is you don't like about Outlook?

The simple fact that it does not mark lines starting with '> ' as quoting is really off-putting.

At work, my co-workers are getting convinced that in-line replies are much better, but if the author (me!) uses plain-text only, all the other Outlook users will have a hard time reading my emails.

Actually, all about plain-text email is a pain in Outlook. I took more time to configure it (as good as it can) to send plain-text email, but now I read all my incoming emails as plain-text.

And to make it quote with '> ' in the beginning and make it properly work was a hell.

All in all, Outlook, to me, is the symbol of the Microsoft of the 1990s.

Bonus: with External Editor [1], I can use Vim (or any other editor) to edit my emails in Thunderbird. No way I could ever do so on Outlook.

Saudi Arabia missed a huge opportunity in the 2010s. They could be one of the biggest solar players in the world, they are equatorial with a ton of cloudless desert land for utility scale. They waffled on their impulsive solar plans and they are years behind where smart policy could've put them.

Step back and just imagine: they are burning oil for electricity in one of the best solar markets possible. Burning oil for electricity is like using whale oil for lamps, it's harming your own society and planet due to myopic decision making.

Ah ok, I think I get you. Is it right to say that the technical factors used to take and process a photograph influence the emotional "look and feel" (aesthetics) of the end result, separate from the bigger-picture story and context behind what is being photographed, and by whom? The former can be taught, whereas the latter is mostly a product of circumstances. Though I guess you can improve your chances of encountering powerful stories by traveling, carrying a camera wherever you go, working as a photojournalist, etc.
Sometimes it's obvious why something is flagged. I have No Idea on this one.
And will ramp their transmit power up to do so.
This is my line of reasoning:

Company X presents the public with communications of known public figure. Company X assures the public, via a blue checkmark, that said communications are from a "verified" account.

Shouldn't company X be liable if someone other than the known figure is making public statements?

It seems logical, fair, and a societal 'good thing', that company X should either let go of the pretense of "verified" communications, or get its act together, or pay the legal price.

Palabras desde adentro, porque afuera no me dejan
Correct, to further explain the difference. The budget is drawn with a certain assumption of the price of oil, which nets them an expected profit per barrel with which they can balance income and expenses. If the price of oil is lower than that they may still make a profit per barrel but the budget is not balanced anymore and they will run deficits.
The issue is people are just not aware on the corruption in Germany because there's no "personal" and "everyday" corruption in a daily life.

But if you look "up" the amount of corruption rise to the astonishing levels. Just remember Stuttgart 21 or the Berlin Airport, Hamburg Elb Philharmonic, Battleship Gorch Fock. Germany is full of such corrupt projects, it's obvious and everyone knows about it, but nobody yet went to jail because of it.

GP is pointing out the parts that haven't changed at all, and are old (over two decades), simple, and common enough to be considered basic knowledge. I had the same reaction to those and one or two others.

Now if this was someone relatively new to CSS I'd understand, but the opening paragraph establishes how long this person was around. Padding-vs-margin in particular was necessary knowledge to do good layouts back in those earlier days (less so now only due to flex and grid, which aren't on here).
