Some times you want somebody to double check your work before you turn it in

It’s fancy tap water. Amazing that Coke makes so much money off it

Hence observations like these. There may be a good reason other than “they’ll wait on the star,” but that’s also a shitty way to treat others.

If he’s busy, he’s gotta deconflict or drop items from the schedule. Arriving on set late can waste the time of dozens of others and rack up unnecessary costs. Even if he pays everybody for the time wasted, that’s still time that could have been spent on other things that is just gone

Thank you for reminding me this exists

Imagine WW3 kicking off from TikTok. Not even a cool battle or anything, just massive misinformation campaigns to incite violence and false flag attacks

I’m imagining the GruWithGun.jpg meme with this slogan and I think it might just work.

Also

The devices set to be prohibited include all types of smartwatches and wearable devices as well.

I’m surprised they weren’t already restricting most personal electronics in sensitive spaces. That’s pretty basic stuff

I would not say

any self-respecting malware writer will download [powertools] and…

I’m not as familiar with mass-market malware, but APT-level gear generally doesn’t try to make use of such easily observed events. The more network traffic malware appropriates, the greater the probability that it’s caught.

Simply put, Powertools puts several functions within arms reach for malware looking to stay under the radar. Without it, malware needs to bring more of its own code which increases footprint. Living off the land exploits in particular love the presence of these kinds of programs

I always thought it wasn’t included by default to mitigate malware damage to a system. Malware needs to be just a little bit more advanced if it can’t hijack Powertools to do what it wants

It’s not as purpose-built, but its replacing a ton of airframes which are decidedly not as stealthy as an F22. Think of all of the F16s, F18s, and AV-8s being replaced by F35s

Piezo master race checking in

Downvotes don’t appreciate the copypasta

That’s a long sentence.

Yes. This is generally agreed upon as being a terminal escalation.

Attacking diplomatic missions very quickly turns into no diplomacy between the two countries. This doesn’t leave many options other than military actions on the table.

I’m assuming they wanted the literal length of the string

I can’t imagine that’s any fun to deal with.

“You should have known what the intent of the question was. Management won’t know or care about the internals of your code as long as it meets requirements. You have failed this test.”

Or

“You should know that you’re calling a function with invalid parameters. Where did you get your CS degree from again?”

Poor question more likely

I would like to subscribe to more corporate monetization facts

More often than not that has been the case :)

Why should the interviewee assume that?

This could very well be a test to see if the applicant has an idea of how a project scales or how they need to interact with other departments or track down compliance information. It could also test the applicant’s ability to provide a sanity check to a boss’s idea before they pitch something that the team can’t actually do
