They need to scan you because in an emergency (for example, if you are confined to bed in a life-threatening situation) they could crank down missing scenes even without you. Just for a case of emergency. (PS. If your wage is so high that the studio boss can't afford a new Lambo, this also counts as an emergency, clearly.)

The stable genius jr. has concluded that fusion technology is pointless anyway. Coal and oil are the future! Soon also on Mars.

If unsatisfied with CPython, please try Stackless Python with its microthreads.

That's in no way a smart move, but right in time to get fired on the spot soon enough.

I'm afraid that Paypal's move might prove a bad idea.

Epi-genetics, ever heard of that?

I guess that's the greatest expert on that matter we can get, for that price. Hopefully, he gets replaced by AI first.

As our master genius said: Renewables overburden the grid.

It looks like he has absolutely no idea what to do with AI. Fix his broken search engine? Apparently doesn't work that well. Improve Office? Apart from lateral functions, doesn't work that well either. That's a problem because AI is burning more and more money every day.

Just asking

During the Edo period (1603–1868), when the samurai class was at its peak as a distinct social group, samurai made up roughly 5–10% of Japan's total population. Estimates vary, but around 7% is a commonly cited figure. In Edo (Tokyo), samurais were about 40-50% of the local population.

They die of overexertion even though they are less productive than other people with less work hours. That's because they're samurais and they show their support to their samurai lord by staying with him, all night long if needed. So they have no time for family. Reducing workdays to 4/5 is a joke because there never have been 5 workdays.

Contrary to popular opinion, Rust does not guarantee good code. Just by using Rust, nothing gets better by itself, but it opens the door for better code, which on the other hand a good C programmier also might have achieved using C.

What do you imagine besides a leaky, run-down apartment with a huge window offering a great view on algae and mud?

A real upset. If the sequencer were freely accessible anywhere on the Internet without a firewall, the valuable sequences would be stolen within a few weeks or even days!
