I deleted mine when I visited it for the first time in ages to look at some company reviews and it was desperately trying to get me to contribute in some communities before letting me read reviews. The link in the article to the data deletion request was news to me though. https://help.glassdoor.com/s/privacyrequest You can read all the reviews anyway by browsing to the page without being logged in and turning Javascript off.

To continue dog-piling on Google's mindblowingly stupid decisions lately, what are people's thoughts on DuckDuckGo in TYOOL 2024? I refused to use it shortly after it came out because the search results were completely fucken useless, but I have got to assume that, years later, they've gotten better?

DDG has probably gotten marginally better but every other search engine has gotten remarkably worse. Definitely use the !g if you’re using image search though, ddg is still real rough there compared to google images.

Weedle posted:a ticket came in Ear cheese. We had a user a long time ago call about being unable to hear very well from their phone. Our voice guy didn't see issues with it, so he drove a phone over. One look at the phone he saw the issue, there was a coating of makeup on the handset so thick it was clogging the speaker.

I use duckduckgo pretty exclusively. I'll still use a !g if I need to look up info on a specific product because those tend to have better results. Otherwise it's been great.

Well, Netscape came with all those applications (mail, IRC, and who knows what else). Netscape 5 being a shitshow, Mozilla was made. Mozilla too came with all those applications. Then one guy got fed up with all that bloat and took out just the browser and released Phoenix. Which became Firebird because Phoenix was used by someone. Turns out Firebird was too, so Firefox it was. This was the time before FreeBSD 5 too. The good old days. (well, kinda, I just went from dialup to 128Kbps cable with 3GB monthly traffic limit, but it was something). Volguus fucked around with this message at 06:52 on Mar 23, 2024 |

Probably foundation from rubbing the area right in front of the ear, below the temple? And yea, I moved over to DDG when Bing went heavy on the AI. As Vegastar said, DDG has improved, but the bigger factor is Google and Bing have gone to absolute poo poo.

Worse yet, the foundation exists in service of the corporation which in turn develops the browser - so it's hard to ensure that any donations that don't come from Alphabet actually get earmarked for the browser, rather than all of the other nonsense that the corporation has come up with over the years Still, it's better than having the company, which makes its lions share of revenue off ads, be the company that also provides not only the infrastructure but a significant part of the tech stack for how we interact with the internet.

The link in the article to the data deletion request was news to me though. Thanks for the link! Of course Glassdoor totally have their poo poo together and so 10 minutes after the request is submitted you get one email per review you've ever posted telling you it doesn't meet community guidelines, likely because their only deletion process is for moderating not privacy requests. I do wonder if they'll actually follow through with a full removal behind the scenes rather than just hiding from view.

So what's a good formula for calculating side-gig hourly rates these days? I've got a couple of places interested in some short term tasks in my primary specialty, so I'm planning on using my current hourly as the basis for the math. It would be 1099, so I'll have to account for that. Are we still on the 2x train, or do we go higher now?

I admit that I am dumb. So explain to me like I'm an extemely stupid person. Apple does staged rollouts for AirTags. They pick a date when to roll them out at a certain percentage; they then configured the rollouts to be finished April 0024 aka 2000 years ago, so iPhones immediately updated every AirTag they were paired with

Amazed that config doesn't get converted during a build to 20240401 and evaluated to see if it's within a value like 100 days of the current date.

At least they didn't set every single AirTag's date to be 24CE and accidentally brick every single one of them

Got a ticket from a guy saying he's been getting a lot of spam emails lately and wants to know what we can do about it. Turns out "a lot" is sixty thousand MAILER-DAEMON bounceback emails a day for over a month. He has almost a million unread messages in his inbox. My dude had a broken inbox rule set to forward emails to his cellphone. Who waits a loving month to bring this up with someone??

No, he just created a rule to try to forward all his emails to his cell number. Which of course didn't work. And then the first bounceback notification also got forwarded, which created a new bounceback message, etc
