It honestly astounds me how easily managers and ceo’s can fuck over their entire business in one easy move and they have no idea.
Frictionless? Do you think entering a phone number is this really hard arduous process compared to literally scanning my body parts?
Insane. Absolutely insane. If I was an engineer at Panera I would be packing my bags. No way this guy has the chops to keep such an expensive sandwich shop going in the coming economic trials.

Do you normally listen through the weekly recommendations or radio or what?

The reason is because UI is never a company wide decision. They have a department for it, and what are they going to do once a design is finalized? Sit around? Quit and not get paid? They will keep trying to innovate even though design is not necessarily something that can always be innovated in that way.

I don’t find this any different than normal society. Plenty of people pass tests and are idiots or unqualified still.

Are you claiming you’ve never done anything bad in your entire life that could be misconstrued by a tabloid? Give me a break.

Everybody has demons. And with cancel culture its only a matter of time someone films him saying something mildly mean to someone on a bad day and the tabloids start coming out.

Many people here constantly says they want a meritocracy and that bias in hiring doesn’t exist. Now you’re saying immigrants are stealing your jobs and they aren’t qualified either. Its just because its exploitation.
The point I am making is that if you want to address the issue, punish the companies not the H1-B visas.
This has nothing to do with immigration if you truly believe its about exploitation. The companies are doing the exploiting and people are happy to accept lower pay because there is no good way to get in here.

The ability to manage passwords for an enterprise may necessitate a cloud based system.

Security is about mitigation. Every company is a target. They will be hacked. Its about mitigating risk of those hacks. So zero knowledge architecture is what Last Pass uses. All of your data is encrypted, by your master password key. Even with encryption, they can brute force into your account. The longer and more complex your password the harder this is.
This hack happened in August. Depending on your password complexity for example, they could still be trying to get in today on just your password.
So password managers still work and as long as you prioritize best practice passwords or hopefully pass phrases you should mitigate most of the risk to your accounts.
But, you don’t want to take chances and again you mitigate risk by still resetting your password.
Generally, you can trust password managers with zero trust architecture. Last Pass has become unreputabme over time due to its practices but that doesn’t mean that if implemented correctly you wouldn’t mitigate a lot of your risk.
Its still way better to have your passwords there than sitting plain text on your PC as an example.

Yes and no, you need 2fa on the accounts in your Lastpass. But the encrypted fields in your account are exposed. They can crack the master passwords and then have your others. If you have a strong password, like complex 14-16 characters or more it will take brute forcers a very long time to get in.
But everyone with Lastpass should reset their master password regardless and just in case everything in it if they must stay with last pass. But really at this point they should move off the platform.

The only problem there is the company exploiting cheap labor.
I’m not suggesting all visas are the same quality but r/technology seems to be very pro meritocracy. Its not a meeitocracy if you’re denying H1-B visas simply to benefit american workers.

It doesn’t need to work that often to be profitable since the scammers just sit around until calls get forwarded to them.

If storing data for children has different compliance laws then you have to collect that data to store any data at all and remain in compliance.
