That's the nice part about having your own country -- no more systemic discrimination or prohibition on owning land, or joining professional guilds, or having some king being upset about his debts and organizing a small confiscation of wealth.

The ambition of keeping that country, however, is something that many people would rather deny that specific etnoreligious community.

In this case, the GP is talking about the Huguenots who are/were French Calvinists.

From Wikipedia: "Middle Ages or medieval period lasted approximately from the 5th to late 15th centuries"

The Huguenots really became a thing at the end of 15th century. They were named after Besançon Hugues (1487 – 1532).

Am I really now? That comes as a surprise to this GP!

In the age of AI, interchangeable content farms that earn pennies by filling 80% of the screen with ads are dead. In fact, the user hostility of those "blogs" is what pushes people even further towards AI interfaces that output what matters up top and (for now) without ads.

Good websites are suffering the same fate though.

Israel and Zionism are genuinely unpopular.

"Did you enjoy Game of Thrones? You'll love working here!"

You can't rely on UDP experience.

Did the flow ask them explicitly for scopes? If not, then they should know there are no restrictions.

It also seems, from the post, that customers were "long asking for scoped tokens" so who and why assumed that this particular token can only add and remove custom domains?

The author is getting roasted here and not without reason.

Things have changed. I worked with a very senior and professional recruiter at FB during that time. While things didn't work out then, someone else reached maybe a year and a half ago for a fairly similar role -- massive difference, strictly a disposable drone style process and barely a conversation. I chose to not even start the process.

A sample size of one but many anecdotes together can make a trend.

iPad is the best consumption device in existence. Reading, video, casual games, it handles all without breaking a sweat. And as speech recognition and translation into intent using LLMs and other tools continues to improve, the keyboard will become less critical and so will be the shortage of screen real estate.

I'm excited about the future of the tablet form factors.

People can have different lived experiences and it's OK; they are differently valuable and beneficial. I'm a certified unc, easily double the age of your oldest, and I have 0 animals depending on me for survival. It means, among other things, that I can simply decide to leave town for a week and don't need to arrange for replacement humans to take care of other living beings -- and this is a valuable freedom to have.

I think people living outside the US don't realize how few disputes here are actually allowed to use the official legal system when dealing with companies of non-trivial size. Many employment contracts, many service contracts, and even website terms of use require mandatory arbitration in lieu of pursuing one's claims in court.

And arbitrator companies (some of which are explicitly for-profit) know the hand that feeds them.
