How many EA games require you connect to their servers just to play? How many have ToS where you need to install any updates before you play? How long before these PE folks figure out they can push updates to even older games that add data mining capacity?
Cool story grandpa. Or maybe you’re just underpaid? Try adjusting for inflation. $50k doesn’t cut it for starting salaries anymore, and a chocolate bar now costs more than a quarter.
In this instance, what is “authentication data” and what could someone do with it?
About as much as I’d trust Rudy Giuliani
Pull on the new flesh like borrowed gloves and burn your fingers once again.
All of this has happened before.
The article doesn’t say it is vegan. And despite their “no plants, no animals, no oils” claim, the added “natural flavour and colour” needs to come from somewhere. Generally these are derived from plants, animals or oils.
Overall an interesting breakthrough, but the contradictions make me ask some questions.
Maybe they add some of those under “natural flavors”?
I am unsure which of these you think is Batman…
Aren’t credit scores relative anyway? Your score is based on where you are in relation to everyone else with a score on whatever distribution the scores fall in. Correct me if I’m wrong!
Isn’t this just a tax? Probably a badly designed one, and I’m sure it breaks the Constitution, but otherwise what’s the big deal?
At one point I worked in a role where I helped people with tech issues, including getting printing and scanning done for documents that needed to be signed.
I regularly had people coming with letters to potential landlords for printing/signing/scanning, thanking the landlord for the opportunity to view a rental, noting the listed rent, and offering a higher rent and/or a cash gift if they were the tenant who was selected.
Very illegal and scummy, exploiting desperate people and families. This app feels like the codifying of that shady landlord behaviour.
If Saylor and Baylor get together, do you think their relation-ship is gonna sink? Or will it be smooth sailing?

Housing always has to go up, or the owner-voters revolt against whoever is in power. So all government policies favour housing appreciation, protect against depreciation, or simply avoid taking meaningful, proportionate and timely action that could cause prices to depreciate.
Even things like airbnb bans, getting rid of exclusionary zoning, etc. are too little, too late. Prices have already been inflated, and owner-occupiers are now holding things up because they can’t simply cash out, write off a loss and move their equity elsewhere because they need somewhere to live. Governments support those owner-occupiers (and often corporate landlords, for as long as they stay in the game) to ensure votes and campaign contributions continue.
We are sitting on a massive, fragile bubble that is getting harder and harder to prop up every year. With insurance issues, climate change, an aging population hoping/needing to cash out equity to fund their retirement, wages way behind inflation for millenials and Gen z, massive amounts of differed municipal infrastructure due to artificially low property tax, unemployment creeping up, etc. there are growing threats to the continued “housing always goes up” economy.
Ah, but those Americans are mostly Democrats so they aren’t really Americans and are gonna lose their citizenship and be deported soon anyway. /S
Naw, MVP in 2 weeks that can write those company-wide emails they do, and then we work with the client and iterate in sprints.
