    Those are very high end ones I'd expect to see on commercial installations or homes of the ultra rich. Most landlords in my part of the US use the cheap regular off-the-shelf locks…

    Do you have any citations/references to support this? All of my jobs have been as the GP describes, where managers see after-hours problems as the dev's responsible for the relevan…

    Interesting. At my shop we're all on call 24/7 for our features, but we aren't compensated extra at all.

    Since the recession, the US' food insecurity numbers still haven't recovered to their pre-recession values. A disturbingly non-zero number of families have no idea when their next …

    For a good ten years or so, I thought Turkish Delight was a fictitious candy brand C.S. Lewis made up for the Narnia books.

    In most states, no notice (or even a reason) is required. We call it 'at-will employment'.

    This is why your SSH key has no business being in the filesystem and should instead be on a hardware token where all the crypto/signing operations happen on the HW token's chip.

    There's garnishment limits. Since they have to leave you with at least 30 hours worth of minimum-wage earnings per week, a lot of people who can't afford their loans are effectivel…

    Doesn't matter to the lenders, they've already written off the loan and reassigned it to government student loan debt collection at SLM. This licensing thing is something the gover…

    Can't really speak as to issues with single-OS installs. Those usually go alright. The problems I always run into arise when you try to go and install another OS alongside what you…

    It works fine except when it doesn't, which is most of the time (either secureboot, or the EFI boot manager, or the Windows 8+ "fast startup" thing that can turn itself on during a…

    This doesn't work for everyone. Some people are just not good at being deceptive like that. I have strong social anxiety that is at its worst in interview situations. When I try to…
