A new crop of young Democratic Party challengers is campaigning on generational politics alone, hoping to capitalize on voters’ hunger for change without running afoul of the centrist establishment’s political preferences.

Mishandling is ubiquitous in the industry. Keep an eye on stuff like this - SecOps is not taken seriously enough and the punishments for failure are not severe enough for these companies to care, but if they can avoid lawsuit fees they'll still have you sign away your right to sue.
Epic Systems, the largest electronic health records company in the US, is pushing users of its ubiquitous online health portal MyChart to sign away their rights to sue the company if it mishandles their sensitive information.

I had a lot of fun playing this. Controls and physics were comfortable, the main game a laid back experience with fun story and art, and the challenges afterward were just the right difficulty (beginner kaizo-like). Worth picking up and enjoying.
please buy my game so i can continue to afford rent 🙃

Seen in practice at work and with former employer as well. Will be tough to quantify.

Think the worst part of depression is when you should be feeling enormous joy but instead you just feel empty, drained or deflated.

I can now write API and cryptography stuff with no problem but writing 2D game code is suddenly hard.
Some Faustian bargain, no doubt. Soon I will be little more than a machine that eats PEMs and speaks in base64. Why make games when I can re-read X.509 standards?
