And yet, that is its default definition regardless of operating system.

That’s also why almost every IDE out there has tabs auto-set to 4 spaces, and/or gives the user to change it away from 8 spaces.

I am not arguing against tabs. I actually find them a lot cleaner than spaces. But the default definition of a tab has it being eight spaces long, regardless of operating system.

It’s just that “tab = 4 spaces” is either the default in a number of IDEs, and in those which it isn’t, almost everyone changes it to that anyhow.

Insisting that all tabs should be the same length as eight spaces.

Open up notepad, and compare. Eight spaces = 1 tab.

Generative LLM's are garbage

And they hallucinate uncontrollably. You literally cannot trust their output.

Most of America (all but 7 states) and all of Canada are one-party jurisdictions. That means you can record conversations without anyone else knowing so long as you are a primary participant in said conversation.

If you have an iPhone (which prevents calls from being recorded as a security feature), it helps to invest in a small digital recorder and to take all calls on speakerphone.

If you take communications through apps like Teams or Slack, there are third-party apps that can screen record your entire monitor such that the other person won’t be informed of the recording. Recording through teams, for example, would have Teams tell the other person that the screen is being recorded.

Don’t just record convos that you think might be important. Record all calls just in case someone does something particularly in your favour, such as asking an illegal question.

I once interviewed for a job, was accepted, then showed up on my first day only to find out that the position had been given to someone else.

And with written proof of acceptance, any employment lawyer worth their degree could have gotten you a healthy amount of compensation even after their cut. Behaviour like this by any company is illegal in almost all jurisdictions, and should never be tolerated.

Great summary.

Legally they cannot.

gender supremacists:

“Hold my beer and watch me do exactly that. Again and again and again without any censure or pushback, purely because I am being a gender bigot against men, and for no other reason. We have full societal and legal ability to employ open misandry, because opposition of any kind is misogyny by default.”

domestic violence happens to men too.

71% of non-reciprocal (only one person being abusive) physically violent (actually striking) domestic violence involves women striking men.

As in, 71% of those victims are men.

And under those same conditions (non-reciprocal physically violent DV), two-thirds of victims that were injured seriously enough to require hospitalization were men, yet almost 100% were also arrested as the “perps”, even though they were the only victims.

Losts of people have problems with these facts. Wild how bad anti-reality ideological indoctrination has gotten.

There are fake job postings.

IIRC, there was one very recent (mid-2024) study of job ads that strongly suggested that 60-75% of them were never meant to be filled. As in, the company posted them for entirely unrelated reasons.

It’s why these are called “ghost jobs”: they don’t exist.

And this is why we need to tax or axe billionaires out of existence. I mean yes, let them choose. But one or the other.

Right, my bad. I read TCP/IP. It's still early.

🤣🤣🤣 Quite alright. It’s 5AM somewhere on the planet, no?

I believe that makes you older than Arpanet, which is what I was really asking.

If you had asked me if I was older than Arpanet, then no. It first came online a few short years before I was born.

Even though the “IP” in TCP/IP came four years after TCP, the introduction of TCP is frequently cited as the “birth of modern networking”, and as such, the Internet.

You don’t agree that seniors who get no visits from their lousy kids could use the interaction a lot more?

Your logical fallacy is: False Dilemma.
