Ya that’s our employment insurance. Glad you were able to get back on your feet!

Many many years ago I worked a job where we had to keep an eye on the call center call queue/employees call status on the phone.

Someone always has to keep an eye on it, so if you need to go for a break, even just to use the washroom, if you’re the only one on shift, you asked one of the team leads to watch it.

Had been like that for years.

Well, we had a brand new manager for our team who was an offsite manager at another call center, and my other coworker was in a very long meeting that day so I was all alone watching things.

I was really hungry, feeling sick from it, so I asked one of the team leads as usual to watch things while I took a break and went across the street to grab some fast food and come back.

Well, while I was gone for like 10minutes, the manager had called our desk (we have voice mail) and realized no one was there.

He reamed me out for having left the desk unattended, and how I should have waited for my coworkers meeting to end which wasn’t ending anytime soon.

Didn’t care that I’d had a TL cover for me as we’d always done.

Next day, HR calls me into their office and puts me on formal notice for it.

I quit the next day. Fuck that shit.

Were you on EI still when you found the job?

That’d be a fun story to tell them why you need to restart it.

Is it storing it or is it accessing the original content?

Hey siri summarize finances.txt and it opening the file to summarize is different than it having its own copy stored somewhere.

The claim is that their own hosted cloud computing for AI is also secure and that Apple has no idea/can’t know what it’s computing for you.

No clue if it’s true, but that is the direction all cloud AI stuff should go.

It tastes good, but i feel pretty guilty doing it

I don’t do it often, but pasta with a cream of mushroom or clam chowder soup.

Maybe not too weird, but that’s probably as weird as it gets.

I mean that’s what the California law is.

If you buy it you own it, but we aren’t buying the games.

A law that says they have to let us buy it instead of license it would be nice though.

They’re bigger so it’s hard to know, but it’s usually something like 2.9% + 10c a transaction.

At their scale though who knows

They should almost just make it so the blaze plan of firebase or other cloud services has a $1 non refundable pre-payment so they can just whittle away at the pennies instead of getting charged processing/transaction fees on a $0.01 transaction. Tops up to $1 if it goes to $0

I think people would pay $1 to enable the paid plans. If you’re going that far, you’re getting $1 of use out of it.

I’ve had Google charge me $0.01 before for firebase usage.

They really should have waited until I owed more since that cost them money.

I’d never even heard of this before. Wtf

It’s a invite only alpha and as I write this it’s #7 on the steam rankings of current players, 6 if you wanna exclude Banana which is it’s own hilarious thing

Dota 2 is #2 and has 565k right now

It let’s you require both?

It looks like it’s pin and optional fingerprint, not pin and fingerprint for me? On Android

This is why I always turn it off in airports though.

Just in addition to my other reply… that was assuming it’s not a government agency.

The police can just force you to do it, but they can’t force a password.

Everyone using a passkey and biometrics on their hardware is law enforcements wet dream.

Edit: Including border security where you have less rights.

It’s just much weaker than a password and passkey / security key.

Something you are can easily be taken from you. (Edit: eg lifting fingerprints can unlock things)

Something you know is harder and would escalate a situation if forced substantially.

It could be your phone or computer as well, they don’t have to be in a password manager.

And that’s often going to be the default people use.

Now it’s just your face or fingerprint, both of which are easier to bypass if it’s targeted.

I highly dislike the idea of a passkey replacing a password as it means you’ve lost the something you know and replace it only with something you have.

Passwords AND passkeys together sound great.
