Judging by the response I've seen the only thing he's lighting on fire is all the trust he's built up.

Re:How does your programming language handle “minus zero” (-0.0)?
on Friday March 05, 2021 @09:39AM (#26357306)
Interestingly Go will give you a negative 0 if you use strconv.ParseFloat("-0.0", 64) but I can't see any way to get -0.0 from a number literal.
Re:When did “privacy issues” start to mean “too much privacy”?

I'm kind of impressed at the mental gymnastics needed to make journalists wanting to hear what powerful people are talking about in a semi-public place into the stasi.

So this is just a very roundabout way of subsidizing Australian news media without having to call it that.

I'm fairly certain it was World of Warcraft. Also my AT&T router's UI does this, which probably explains why it's so slow.
Re:Google wins privacy case: ‘Right to be forgotten’ applies only in EU
on Wednesday September 25, 2019 @11:07AM (#21071460)
As far as I can tell the only logical reason is political. It would be far less popular to force news organizations, which might be influential and local, to delete data than forcing an unpopular foreign corporation to do it.

I think people here in Raleigh would hardly notice if Google Fiber pulled out. They only ever offered it in a very small area and AT&T has been offering gigabit to to large parts of the area for several years now.

Unless they changed it very recently you can still sign up completely online or have them mail you a PIN. They do still mail you a PIN no matter what so you can at least deactivate it if you didn't set it up.

I just signed up and 2 out of the 4 questions could easily have been looked up on Zillow and they're all multiple choice with 4 options. The 2 questions were the year my house was built and the original sale price.
So anyone would've had a 1/16 chance of just guessing it right.

It makes complete sense if its purpose is to be so onerous that no one can actually use it without a commercial license.
