yeah but if you tie that chance to a bunch of randomly generated numbers, it becomes worth $1

My desktop PC stays on through out the day, but I turn it off when I’m sleeping, mostly because it flashes the power button LED in sleep mode, which sometimes prevents me from sleeping. I usually turn of the monitor for the same reason (LED button stays on).

My macbook is set to sleep/lock itself after some period of inactivity, and when I’m done for the day, I usually just close it. The only time I fully turn it off is when I’m traveling and trying to save as much battery as I can.

I've never been involved with hiring and have only ever worked at companies small enough to fly under the radar when it comes to regulating things like that, so I have zero experience in seeing how it would have actually worked. But there are two narratives I often heard about it:

  1. Companies were forced to meet "quotas". For example black people have to make up some percent of their workforce, meaning they would have to prioritize black candidates if they were actively hiring but under the quota

  2. Even if a company met the quota, if they were considering two candidates that were equal in qualifications and one was white and the other not, the non-white candidate would get the job because being non-white give them... like extra "points" or something? I guess to give them a "buffer" so if next time they're hiring, they can hire a white person?

I have a strong feeling both are myths, and the reality of it was more vague and loosely enforced, especially since I never heard anything about what the punishment would be for not following these rules. A fine? Prison time for leadership? Complete shutdown of the business? Who knows. I am interested in hearing how it actually worked from anyone who has firsthand experience with affirmative action.

Been doing more reading on it, and found that quotas used to be a thing, but were struck down by the supreme court in 1978. I can't find anything that says the quota system UC Davis used was forced on them by the government.

Stolen device protection on iOS 17.3 will allow disabling stolen device protection (as well as resetting face/touch ID) with only the passcode after a few failed face/touch ID authentication attempts. iOS 17.4 beta, which is currently only available to developers, fixes this so you absolutely need to pass biometric authentication to change these settings. If this feature is important to you, you may want to update to 17.4.
