I don't know why you're being downvoted. There is a reason why development volume across states is asymmetric.

Kinda seems like it's not

Larry David had the same thought, and it was the theme of the episode "The Covid Hoarder" in Curb Your Enthusiasm wherein Albert Brooks stages a funeral for his non-deceased self.
Is 11/100 not the almost ideal marine infantryman score?
Re:Expensify S-1 on Monday October 18, 2021 @04:11PM (#28910987)
When my startup was acquired, we had to migrate from using Expensify to some god-awful corporate nonsense (SAP Concur).

Lord, how I miss Expensify. It was the epitome of intuitive.

It makes me sad that Expensify was not a first-mover in this space. Once SAP or whatever garbage-ware gets baked into corporate enterprise architecture, it takes an act of God (or equivalently the CTO's dedicated focus) to replace it.

CPAs absolutely have their license on the line and are required to validate and sign off on the returns that they prepare. They are liable for claims against the validity of the return.

Tax attorneys are different; they don't validate returns, they handle legalities around tax lawsuits and IRS negotiations. I don't think a tax attorney would generally be involved with preparing a return, except maybe for reviewing ultra-wealthy clients for potential legal consequences.

Yes. Section K: https://www.eeoc.gov/wysk/what-you-should-know-about-covid-1...

Good for them. Glad to see this becoming a standard policy across many orgs.

Re:LiveLeak shuts down after 15 years online on Wednesday May 05, 2021 @10:24PM (#27058456)
Having never heard of bitchute, I just checked it out. It’s basically just right wing nut job stuff. I think LiveLeak at least was a little more “balanced”, in that it was about entertaining content, regardless of the political ideology.

Service Now is the bane of my existence. Pray tell if the behind-the-scenes code base is as bad as the experience.
The worst I’ve seen was Nord VPN. Three or four modals / screens where the action to stop your subscription was the smaller, secondary UI element, almost not even noticeable. How a dev or PM can live with themselves while implementing that I have no idea.
Own/compel one of the ends.

Thank you for trying
No gamer loves GameStop, where’d you get that idea? They are known for buying back your 60$ blockbuster game after a month for $3, and reselling for $55.

They should be dead in the water, and the shorts will eventually be correct, if they can’t pivot to a digital presence (which they can’t, because why would anyone go outside of the native platform stores?)

Maybe they got fired for this terrible idea

Re:Platforms that have banned or restricted Trump so far on Saturday January 09, 2021 @12:57AM (#25697773)
The end result is the same, but the mechanisms that create and persist that phenomenon are now a billion dollar industry driven by very smart people with shareholders that they answer to. The result is that the effectiveness and pertinacity of these creations far outstrip anything ever seen before in human history.
Re:Platforms that have banned or restricted Trump so far on Friday January 08, 2021 @10:26PM (#25696262)
History doesn’t have any precedent for this. Algorithmically defined echo chambers are a new frontier for society to tackle. We’ve tried the option of waving our hands and hoping for the best, and what we got was a literal riot at the holiest of holies. Maybe it’s time for society to reject extremists on the internet, like we reject them in our local communities.

My dad used to tell me about these. He commonly would use them when his parents took him to the shoe store in the early 50s, Northern California.

He occasionally has related this fact to podiatrists pals, who generally are shocked to discover such a thing ever existed.

Dr. Banana’s meta analysis on fecal flinging was groundbreaking, he doesn’t deserve this.

Interested, but your price point is way to high. It’s also pretty easy for me to go to each vendor you mention on the landing page and fill out the opt out request form they are mandated to provide.
