Tech giant Oracle cuts 21,000 jobs as it embraces AI
And then they release a Security Patch Update, but don’t release the patches needed until a week later. So I had a document urging me to install an unavailable patch.

I’ve read about this before. It’s worse than you think. It’s not done all at once and she doesn’t know when it will happen.

I don’t remember exactly and I don’t have the stomach to search it again. But lashing is done in the butt. Just like a jail sentence, you’re ordered to present yourself at a place where you’ll receive your punishment. They put you over some kind of bench and expose your buttocks. By the fifth lash the skin is already broken and you’re bleeding. So a “doctor” can order the punishment to stop. Months later you’re ordered back to continue your sentence.

Oh so about 10 trillion trillion times as fast as Aroldis Chapman in his pitch on sept 23th 2010 game, where he threw the equivalent of a football field in 1.93 seconds.

Maybe I’m mixing torture techniques. There’s also flogging that follows the same pattern, but IIRC, the victim stays jailed during sentence, and it’s done on the back.

The Google Maps car captures a woman waving outside of her home. Today, her home is gone and the land sits empty...
What about instead of “land sits empty”, as if it’s a bad thing or needs a purpose, we say “the house gave place to a park” or “land was added to the adjacent park”?

Maybe, or maybe it’s to curb the law that force a refund in certain cases. You want a refund? It’s 64$.

China to ban hidden car door handles made popular by Tesla in world first
I don’t know much about this, but in my understanding, it’s not that the handle hides in the door, but the fact that the latch inside is electronic. Using a mechanical latch that will work even without any electrical power would solve the problem.

And almost nobody noticed. I used to read Dilbert, I bought his books and loved them. But the racism was always there, in Asok jokes and even in the Elbonians.

What really gets me in this picture is that they’re not looking at each other and smiling. They’re looking at each other and hating that “his is bigger than mine”. They can’t even enjoy what they have.

Nah, it’s genius. A fantastic way to laundry money. It’s like buying paintings but you don’t even need to pay someone to appraise it or a good painter with some sort of good technique.

Love is love
There’s a video of a mom telling what people do when they marry and the younger girl makes a finger in a hole gesture. The mom says “hey, don’t do that! Why did you do that?” And the girl replies “they put a ring on the finger”.

Morpheus gave him a choice. But, of course, being a good marketer, he didn’t say how reality would be.
