Biden does not even know the difference between Iran and Ukraine. Be careful who you take orders from.

Wow thanks im gonna read that today! That explanation makes quite a bit of sense. Ive been reading over some code to try understand what it does and now its starting to make more sense.

If this study were to be taken seriously then I would want to know if there is a link between soybean oil and narcolepsy.

Im very sure Blizzard used witchcraft to make this game so attractive and addictive.
Monero ftw! The banks and the prime minister can go to hell
Does the mainstream media back up any of its claims that are supposedly scientific. "Trust the science", ask Galileo if he trusted the science of his time.
Re:More than eighty cultures still speak in whistles on Tuesday August 24, 2021 @12:51PM (#28291467)
Its quite common in some hoods in South Africa to use whistling to communicate if the police or enemy gang are coming. Im pretty sure this isnt unique to South Africa though
In order for it to work you must believe it will work. That is how christianity works and how witchcraft works.
Cause Ive tried this. Demons shudder at the name of Jesus
Please whatever you do, dont mess with this stuff. Ive really had interactions of this kind and I can tell you it is not fun, you will not be happy or at peace. Satan is a liar,murderer and deceiver.

Jesus came to save you and even if you have "sold" your soul to satan then just know that Jesus defeated satan on the cross and paid for your soul with his blood.

Great book and so is Mere Christianity
Please explain? Are you talking about dwave?
Re:Hire-to-fire at Amazon India? on Sunday June 20, 2021 @03:28PM (#27573137)
Funny to see people ask questions like LSE, lol you can probably figure out if someone on an alt account is a real amazonian or ex amozonian by asking them a few abbreviations.

My experience is that everything this guy mentioned in this post is true and more worse things are true that are not mentioned.

Working at amazon broke me. I had to go on Xanax after working at amazon and after quiting Xanax lost three jobs consequetively.

I had to work so hard to regain my self respect and confidence.

The situation described in this post is no different in Amazon Cape Town or any other place.

Btw the internal dev tooling is absolutely terrible and a pain to work with. The dev tooling is a result of "not invented here" syndrome. Forget about using a good opensource library to do a given task if that library is a google open source library.

It is hard to join amazon, but also to leave it. It operates a bit like a prison gang. Your phone tool icons are your prison gang tattoo's. Like a prison gang you will move up the ranks by doing things, sometimes even taking out members of your own gang. The longer you are part of the gang and the deeper you get...the harder it becomes to leave until it becomes impossible to leave.

My two cents is that until amazon becomes customer obsessed with its "internal customers" aka the employees it is bound to fail.

Re:Stripe Reader on Wednesday June 16, 2021 @10:24PM (#27535610)
Stripe is not available in my country. So seeing articles like this just makes me annoyed.
I decided to start a career in programming and IT oneday at 21 on a LSD bad trip from hell. It was really an eye opening trip and just realized this would be the best possible career path to take. I have never looked back since.
Great comment
This is the funniest comment Ive read all week.
Sounds like Jonah
I see more and more tweets and articles like this posted here on hackernews that echo the sentiments of the world economic forum on how they feel about cryptocurrency. Remember they are the very people that say you should:"Own nothing and be happy".

If you think cryptocurrency is a scam then you havnt looked into the technology behind it and the economies that have been built using these technologies.
