Yes, it was just over two years. I can't share a lot of details but it is one of those places where developers don't have admin rights and aren't allowed to install software on the…

I know exactly how you feel and have experienced it in two different work environments, first as an intern during college (which only lasted 3 months but felt like eternity) and se…

I imagine a Director of Compliance in the Russian or Chinese government has more authority to force people to comply.

I definitely prefer the direct style when it comes to features, tasks, and deadlines. If someone is too indirect then they are more likely to bury the lede, not mention the deadlin…

thanks, worth noting that the print dialog does not support that option when using Firefox on Windows

do you know if there is a way to remove the datetime stamp header that is inserted into the pdf when printing?

Any thoughts to their motivation for doing this, seems like a waste of time, or maybe a thought experiment on their part.
