macOS has something to this effect where if it detects too many kernel panics in a row on boot it will disable all kernel extensions on the next reboot and it pops up a message explaining this. I’ve had this happen to me when my GPU was slowly dying. It eventually did bite the dust on me, but it did let me get into the system a few times to get what I needed before it was kaput.
LES ENFANTS TERRIBLES
Much of TekSavvy’s infrastructure is last mile stuff and they resell service from Bell, Rogers and Cogeco, so in many places they still aren’t an option if you’re looking to avoid the major networks. They have put some of their own fibre in some places though and have their own wireless service in some places, but as far as I know their main business is still piggybacking off of the major providers.
I hope they keep with the dinosaur theme and go with the Toronto Procompsognathuses.

What kind of person do you have to be to send out death threats period?
Shake and bake in full effect.
I wouldn’t say quite the same root cause — the xz back door was clearly intentional, but I don’t recall the Heartbleed bug having been intentional, and developer responsible has denied allegations to that effect. There can be no doubt in the xz case of malicious intent.
Learn to use git bisect. If you have unit tests, which of course you should, it can save you so much time finding weird breakages.
Why wouldn’t you just create a GUI interface in Visual Basic to track their IP addresses tho?
How do you know that deleting anything on Reddit actually deletes anything? It might just hide the content but soft delete it in the database, which means you may not be able to see it anymore but they can still use it for whatever.
The code in the image is C or C++ or similar. In those languages and languages derived from them, curly braces are optional but the parentheses are required. It should be the other way around to avoid logic errors like this:
if (some expression)
doSomething()
else if (some other expression)
printf(“some debugging code that’s only here temporarily”);
doSomethingElse();
Based on the indentation you’d think that doSomethingElse was only meant to run if the else if condition was true, but because of the lack of braces and the printf it actually happens regardless of either of the if conditions. This can sometimes lead to logic errors and it doesn’t hold up to a principle of durability under edit — that is, inserting some code into the if statement changes the outcome entirely because it changes the code path entirely, so the code is in a sense fragile to edits. If the curly braces were required instead of optional, this wouldn’t happen.
I have all of my linters set up to flag a lack of curly braces in these languages as an error because of this. It’s a topic that sometimes causes some debate, ‘cause some people will vociferously defend their right to not have the braces there for one liners and more compact code, but I have found that in general having them be required consistently has led to fewer issues than having arguments about their absence, but to each their own. I know many big projects that have the opposite stance or have other guidelines, but I just make ‘em required on my own projects or projects that I’m in charge of and be done with it.
I also sometimes wish that the syntax in if statements was inverted, where () was optional and {} was required.
Perl I believe is where the programming adage of TMTOWTDI comes from — There’s More Than One Way To Do It. Python was an anathema to that ideal, where TOOWTDI — There’s Only One Way To Do It, or at least one ideal way
It could also indicate that other summaries of the texts were used to train the LLM and that it is summarizing those summaries. The actual book doesn’t need to be there, unless you can have it spit out the actual text of the book itself?
There’s a few places around southwestern Ontario that ain’t too bad. Sammy’s Donair I. Burlington is a decent one. There used to be a place in the Danforth called the Fuzz Box that was run by a guy from Berwick, but that place closed down a while ago now. There used to be a place called Halifax Original Donair that had locations in Burlington and Milton but I see that they retired literally two weeks ago and closed down. If you’re in the Burlington area, I guess Sammy’s is your best bet.
Playing this game was infuriating when the egg hatched.
Did you mean to write “job description” instead of “escape room concept”?
macOS is also a certified UNIX according to the Open Group:
She was also part of the team that discovered and coined the term “bug” in relation to a computer defect. She didn’t invent the term herself directly, but she was part of the team that did.
