Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI
To reinforce the shift in company culture toward "empowering and rewarding every employee to find security issues, report them," and "help fix them," Smith said that Nadella sent an email out to all staff urging that security should always remain top of mind.
Yeah that ought to do it.

Arizona State Senator Leads Prayer In Tongues On Floor Before Abortion Ruling.
MATTHEW 6:5
And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
He's a sinner.

Did someone say history memes?
I love this meme because its also relevant to any code written 2+ years ago in the software development field.

The golden years
Dumb take.
I'm in my 30s and working an office job is way less stressful overall than school was. When I'm done with work, I can go home and stop thinking about it.
With school, you can never study "enough", so its always creeping in the back of your subconscious. And good grades alone don't cut it - you've also got to participate in extracurriculars and turn yourself into a trained monkey to write an "interesting enough" college essay. Oh and if you screw any of this up, your entire adult life could be ruined.
Diligent students have it way harder than office workers. Kids need our support and sympathy.

You're exactly the kind of person who would beg to shut down central park because someone got mugged there, just like he talks about in the article, which you clearly didn't read.

FCC says “too bad” to ISPs complaining that listing every fee is too hard
Providers are free, of course, to not pass these fees through to consumers to differentiate their pricing and simplify their Label display if they believe it will make their service more attractive to consumers and ensure that consumers are not surprised by unexpected charges.
This official response is brillaint. "Feel free at any time to just stop charging bullshit fees."

Screen time linked with developmental delays, study finds
It seems like the danger here is correlation vs causation.
It might just be that parents who are more prone to producing children with developmental delays also happen to be more likely to put those children in front of a screen to manage their behavior.
I'm not sure the data supports the conclusion this article is making.

Abercrombie and Fitch ex-CEO accused of exploiting men for sex
I worked at an Abercrombie in college and it was just as exploitative as it sounds. We had to wear Abercrombie-only clothing to work and... you guessed it - they didn't provide it. We had to buy it. As if that weren't bad enough, it had to be "in season", which meant they forced us to buy a new outfit every quarter for the priviledge to work minimum wage retail. They claimed we could choose instead to wear "equivalent" clothing if we didn't want to pay. I once wore reef leather flip flops and they made me cut the 1cm rubber tags off before letting me on the floor.
They ended up getting sued for this practice and about 10 years later I got a settlement check for $7.
I have plenty of other crazy blood boiling stories from that job.
