    Looks like GitLab was the correct repository to endorse. Runs in-house or on their servers.

    No, you're just an idiot whose vision is clouded by your own beliefs.

    There's nothing else to say other than you are wrong.

    This is a shit post. Nothing about "News for Nerds". Venice is a wasted trip.

    Elon only knows publicity stunts, He can't actually create anything. Just cobbles together old tech.

    That reference is close to being funny, but you are accurate in saying Musk thinks he's a king. He's a great PR guy. It's the same reason we still have Microsoft. All of the fluff is rehashed BS , but they still shine it up and sell it.

    It was the anti-ad. Many gas or diesel vehicles going down the highway can pull this plane.

    Publicizing the fact the an electric vehicle can do this just shows how far behind electric vehicles are when it comes to range, power, and duration.

    Stick with C and COBOL. They're not fancy. They're not 'hip'. They're still here because they're rock solid.

    The FBI did themselves in.
    Trump would like the press to be full of actual news, not tabloid headlines. Demanding the press stick to facts instead of fabricating stories in a great thing.

    People follow him because he is a good leader.

    Look at Pelosi and Booker. They thought they were in an acting audition for a HS musical during the SOTU. They're not leaders.

    America is lucky to have Trump as president.

    That's what all of the illegals are already driving with. I guess they're ahead of this curve. A dead man driving? Nope, just an illegal.

    You should check out Coursera's Math courses.

    How can anyone take them seriously with statements such as "any units bought from eBay or Amazon from an unauthorized dealer will results in your IP and Mac Address blocked from our Server" on their website? Neither of those are hard to modify.

    Your examples are marvelous. They're also irrelevant to my point. The website is not altered.

    No. The website remains the same. The content, as seen by the user, may be altered. Large difference. If credentials are compromised, that's a separate issue.

    A WiFi attack allows one to manipulate a website? That escalated quickly.

    Youth has got nothing much to offer. The youngsters don't have a clue and want "check this box" solutions. Hence the reason to come back to a job and fix what the 'solutions' the youth implemented, for a substantial fee.
