Redmond declares its learnings about hybrid work. But how do you stop it from becoming a torrid mess? A Stanford professor has a suggestion. Please don't be 'open office'

Ah, the answer is, meetings, meetings, meetings, meetings, meetings, meetings... no, no, no; optimized meetings.

This question literally froze me, got me brainstorming and thinking about all the lines of code I've written. 10 print "BEST!"

Interesting question, although I caught the 'meta' nature of it as soon as I saw it. Probably because I'm an old guy, and I expect these sorts of sunshiny things from interviewers. On to my answer.
The best line of code I've ever written is the one I didn't have to write. More and more I find myself writing less code to do the same job. As my career has progressed I've learned to write more efficient code with fewer lines. I've learned to make the API's I create now as simple as possible (but no simpler ) for the guy who's going to use them, namely me in another hour or two. I see this most often when I'm refactoring older code I wrote 5, 10, or even 20 years ago (yes, we have code that old we're still actively using and maintaining). Almost always I end up with less code than I started but I've fixed a bug, added a feature, or both.

Haha, so true. I don't remember the rest, but mine likely started with // or /*

Often, I'm more proud of the code I managed to remove from a project than the code I actually added.

Benefits of open source far outweigh the disadvantages. The 'eyes' have it

And by open source, I mean where I get paid to use open source...

Scammers use fake 'unsubscribe' spam emails to confirm valid email accounts to be used in future phishing and spam campaigns. So I can stop unsubscribing from newsletters I never get?

Sigh. That explains my email blowing up. I don't know how or why, but I think my main email got out there for investments. I was getting dozens of emails all thanking me for signing up, please subscribe, I need your CC, etc. As an experiment, I tried unsubscribing consistently. Now, I know I was likely confirming a live email address, but hey, it was an experiment. Boom. More email.
It's like when I gave $50 to Special Olympics. Within 3 months, I had dozens of organizations mailing me for funds. Never again.

While the platform already has a database of literally billions of passwords, emails, and account details that have been compromised over the years, this new partnership means the Bureau will be piping in freshly compromised passwords found during its own investigations. You'll now get a visit from "the men in black" if you try to use 'P@ssword1'

The details come from unredacted documents in Arizona’s lawsuit against the company They are a 'search' company

If they can't be found, they can't be changed...
And you can't search for something that you don't know if it even exists or how is it called.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
