I can see utility in something like this where someone sent you a screenshot of code and you wish to compile/execute the code in the screenshot. Anything else is a bonus. I dig the project, keep it up!

Nice! Smort!

I'm excited to try it out when I get off work.

the point is: - the government would be knocking down the door of a CEO who may not necessarily have the type of data they're looking for. - the government would have to go through a ton of effort to get anything they needed, rather than having it all up front to begin with. - no data should be given up freely without direct, fair consent (no matter who demands it)

Yes, forget due diligence. It's too much work.

That's true, but why does that mean they need to shut down her account just because she visited Cuba? Would that mean a grocery store would then have to refuse to sell you their goods because you visited the country once?

I don't know; they seem to be trashing Autopilot plenty in the article.

This sounds a lot like Walmart's codebase for their POS registers. Except, the kicker is that there are zero unit tests, zero test frameworks, etc. You just have to run it through the shitty IBM debugger and hope that you don't step on anyone else's work. Up until 2016, they didn't even have a place to store documentation. Each register has ~1000 flags, some of which can be bit switched further into testing hell.

I don't understand this either. It's not up to companies to "be the change they want to see in the world". To me, this behavior is nothing but a ploy. No successful company invests money to get the second, third, fourth, etc best return possible.

If anything, it's an insult to the minorities; they only hire them because they are a minority and they fill the minority quota, not necessarily because of their ability.

Such a tragic thing to read. I hope that his family and friends get through this.

This is the tried and true response. It's been around for 20+ years and chanops enforce channel topics.

My opinion is that at some point, things will go the way of Facebook. Facebook started as a college-student-only social network, and then eventually became available to the general public. I feel the same will happen with this idea. :/
