That and a rotating menu likely adds overhead costs as it prevents you from specializing (skills, equipment, and ingredients acquisition)

Rust's cargo is great, I'd say it would be best to make the switch sooner rather than later once your code base is established. The build system and tooling alone is a great reason to switch

Honestly executives and board members who receive performance bonuses and golden parachutes should carry extra liability, such that these perks can be denied or even clawed back (and used to help the damages) when their decisions have these sort of outcomes. Nothing wrong with making more when things go well, but if you're going to take a larger piece of the pie, then you need to be prepared to take a smaller piece when things go wrong (aka, cut executive pay before layoffs, etc.).

Honestly, we need to replace social security numbers if we insist on using them as a form of identification (they never were designed for this); they follow a pattern (which is publicly available) and can be partially predicted without knowing too much about the individual. They were originally for Social Security only (hence their name), but then the IRS decided to use them for ID and then others followed suit, and we got to where we are now

what software are you using and how is the class structured? It sounds like this might be a rotating group of students all using the same ipads? Does the school have access to some sort of storage medium that requires unique (per student) login credentials that the students could save their files to?

I never received this survey and I fly Southwest specifically because I found their boarding process to be less of a hassle (for a single traveler who doesn't care where they sit). The only way I could see this being beneficial is if they board people in order of assigned seat in such a way as to optimize time to seat, not the BS boarding that other airlines do to try and maximize price of fair, otherwise they will have lost the whole reason I like(d) to fly them... Their simplier, no bs, boarding process.

P.S. I really don't get people liking to pidgen hole themselves to a specific spot for any of these things, just makes it easier to inflate the prices later

Darn, I missed it, about halfway down

Do they say what state or are we supposed to just know this is Virginia?

I’d assume the subscription would be for a webcam enabled doorbell with cloud storage of the video (which is probably designed in intentionally, because I don’t believe the larger vendors provide an easy way to self host the storage)

I think a lot of this comes from how the internet in many ways has become less of a shared place, with fewer people self hosting and more moving to ‘platforms’ which has enabled massive commercialization (and an excessive desire to mine personal data, only to get hacked)
