Ah, yeah, by the way - if you do something harmful at work and are hold responsible for it legally, it’s weird because when you do something clearly beneficial at work the company holds all the responsibility for that, and you hold your paycheck independently of the outcomes of your work.
So how the hell is this even treated as any kind of crime, let alone worth 4 years, is unclear for me. Some people seem to be forgetting that where peaceful protest is punished, violent protest finds a way.
If an intern damages a production database, they (or whoever else) are not (legally) held responsible, despite someone there definitely making a few mistakes leading to loss of profit. But it’s not even considered.
In this case it’s not a mistake, but does it matter? Unless they violated some security process inside the organization, thus illegally gaining access wherever, the story means that they used “maliciously” the access they were given.

In the 1970s this, first, would be an equivalent of what another guy wrote, changing a lock combination and not telling people, a minor mischief, and second, he’d have a union protecting him.
This is clearly disproportional.
A bomb kills\maims people and harms equipment, this is very clearly not a bomb.
In the 1970s this would be a scandal.

So I’ve done plenty of that in my, ahem, practice. And honestly if I had a choice to concentrate and not do that, even if that meant losing my “dead man’s triggers”, then so be it. Extinguishing a perpetual dumpster fire as part of your job is not good. Also someone might be given that to fix after you leave, I’ve been in that role too.

I don’t think my thought processes are garbage. They at least have evolved past the mistakes most people here do.
Anyway, you haven’t provided any argumentation, just came here and started throwing feces. I don’t argue with monkeys, at least not after I fully realize I’m talking to one.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay 2 years ago:
I didn’t consider overtime. Just what the title says - 32hr week with the same pay as 40hr week with all other things unchanged.
With this interpretation - yeah, but then Bernie’s mention of “no loss in pay” doesn’t make sense, it happens automatically.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay 2 years ago:
I’ve been responsible for some relatively important things from time to time, and that’s just as likely to happen in future.
While your reply is not very convincing and recursively makes me think I’d not entrust to you anything I really want done in a satisfactory way at least.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay 2 years ago:
Yes, with 4 days, 8 hours the idea is what you described.
With 5 days, 7 hours the idea is that you don’t work effectively anyway in the last 1-2 hours, not doing many useful things, adding to depression and also obviously still using that time, so it’s better to get some rest or social activity or take a walk instead.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay 2 years ago:
Well, jobs are different. It’s just that sometimes you get too tired to do anything effectively an hour or two before your work technically ends.

32hr week is fine, but what does he mean by no loss in pay?
The mandated work week is something a central regulator controls, and the pay is not.
The drop in productivity because of working 32hrs instead of 40hrs will be much less than 20%, that’s for sure. Maybe there’ll be no drop at all. That doesn’t always translate to no drop in pay.
If by 32hrs we mean 4 days, then it frees that day for other workers (if we imagine any job with a physical workplace). The pay is a result of the balance of interests. It will become less.
And personally I’d say 35hr week is a better idea - as in 5 days of 7hrs .

MacOS has userland tools from some FreeBSD version (quite obsolete, IIRC). Also there’s a port of bhyve called xhyve for MacOS. Its kernel I wouldn’t expect to have much in common with BSDs.

I mean, real life recommendations are more often than not that too. I mean, ones you get asking friends.

Well, it’s kinda depressing when you conclude no particular task for a day, yet still feel boiled due to tired eyes, headache etc.
