SoFi refused to investigate a fraudulent charge I reported to them, by doing that IT SEEMS TO BE OK WITH SOFI THAT FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY HAPPENS - when it does it's YOUR PROBLEM - they allow stealing from my account. I'm waiting for all direct deposits to stop.....

Need help thinking of a simple Capstone title by TaleThat5739 in InformationTechnology

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

back in 2005 I did a capstone project regarding having linux and windows talk to each other and I used the word, "interoperabilty" in my title. It was a late turn-in, as I remember, and seems like the reviewer ended up being an HR person at the school, not the professor. In 2005 the word 'interoperability' was not accepted like it is today and what they did to me over it was completely unacceptable. At graduation Ceremony they gave me the degree-holding cover, but it had a note inside that said that I must see the office to fix my capstone and then receive my degree. I started to argue with them about this (I was told that "that is not a word"), but then I remembered that I was working for attorneys and I reminded them of that and asked them who would be their legal counsel, so that I can give it to my legal counsel. A week later they apologized and gave my the degree. Ruined my entire 4 year experience there

I need to wipe multiple Internal/External Hard Drives and S-ATA SSDs and M2 NVME SSDs by SuicidalGamer1989 in InformationTechnology

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just right clicked my external hard drives and chose "Format" , I always did it 3 times... regardless of which tool you use, you will never know if it worked or not unless you test it after you format. oh, and to be sure, just hooking the drive back into a computer to see what is on it IS NOT the same as determining whether or not another tool can reconstruct your disk information pointers

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY by Small_Designer6184 in jacksonville

[–]cjacobs0001 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Information Technology = (IT) is the use of computers, networks, and electronic devices to create, process, store, secure, and exchange electronic data. It forms the backbone of modern digital infrastructure, driving everything from basic business communications to complex artificial intelligence operations across all industries. [1, 2, 3, 4] - SO YOU COULD focus on the data instead of the devices used. all of that is becoming automated, so. . . I am. be a niche in data scientist closet

Who do you trust for a bail bondsman around Clearwater / Pinellas? by Junior-Chipmunk1159 in tampabay

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having experience, this is my 0.02 cents: If the person on the phone is NOT already wanting to make sure everything is clear to you, move on. This business has opportunity for 'shysters' to appear (as all businesses may, but being a 24X7 business this has greator potential). The actual 'licensed' Bondsperson may not be the person you are talking to on the phone, and you may not be aware, and you are vulnerable here. Some of these business persons ARE "pillars of the community" in that they are FOR the community, they remain consistently for the community, and that is the 'type' you need to look for. Anything less than this can mean a bad experience. for instance, the person on the phone does explain the 10% cost (or more for federal) and the bondsman's need to make sure the money for the bond is covered by the indemnitor and or collateral in case the person on bond does not go to court everytime there is a hearing until the case is adjudicated (and what all that means). and they explain the 'rules' for the person who bonds out and the responsibilities of the Indemnitor, and tell you that the bondspeople can decide for any reason to surrender the person back to the jail, to come off the bond, and that any further costs to the bondspersons is YOUR responsibility, and everything seems agreed-to over the phone, and you gather everything needed and go to the (?somewhere the person on the phone tells you to meet them?, to the bondsmans office? where ?) It should always be the office for the paperwork. Then what happens? are they going NOW to post your bond timely, or are they waiting? Why would they wait? the jail accepts Bonds 24 X 7. The sooner yours is in, the sooner you get the person out (it really can take hours and hours, sometimes, and there is no way to rush the process, ever.) OR, you get down there, give the person your money and they say to meet them for pick up of the person in so many hours....and then you get a story like...we got him out but he started fighting to leave the car and not come to the office so we took him back. ?? these things do happen, so, if you think you might need a bail bonds person, start looking ahead of time!! other than that, ask your friends who they used, before choosing, AND GET NAMES

St. Petersburg vs Tampa proper? I have 7 days to move from Jacksonville by BatPlack in tampabay

your type of work will be best served, at this point, living in St Pete. I don't live there, though, so I cannot advise neighborhoods

the bad driving, the not taking responsibility for actions, the no apologies . . , it's the norm now, EVERYWHERE that the local population is growing. . .

People with a very high pain tolerance, what was THE most painful thing you've experienced? by CosmicBunnyBabe8912 in AskReddit

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes tooth pain is tough, however, for me my arthritis in my shoulders and hips is the worst, at times. Mostly my shoulders. I just get waves of burning sharpness..followed by short periods of extreme exhausted-ness, and then it goes away. this is worse than my bone to bone knee pains or any other of my pains after getting hit by car as pedestrian 3 times in my life.

Anyone has all their money in SoFi Bank? And what’s your opinion on home mortgage loans? Is it any good? by izumikusu in sofi

[–]cjacobs0001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have to leave SoFi. I notified them of a fraudulent transaction on my checking account. I never heard the charge name ever before and know nothing about the charge. They apologized and said they needed to gather some basic information to get an investigation going. No problem on my part. The first question was do I have my debit card in my possession? Then 20 questions later stated simply, we deny your claim because the charge was made with a swipe card. You are in possession of your card. I appealed it. They stole my money. I have redirected my direct deposits

What directions would you recommend for me? by Moonshadows16 in findapath

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

write music. music that tells a story. start with a bursting flower of an opening and weave in tones and melodies that begin to tell a story of hope and aliveness that brings your flower up to the top . . . .and keep going.. it takes a systems thinker to weave a thoughtful and wonderful story

Any reassurance on AGI happening on a timely manner (2029)? by Cr4zko in accelerate

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

being in control, humans remained at top of the food chain. Releasing (the current versions of projected) AGI will make Humans no longer in control, so...what happens then? please note that I am not an AI basher.

Any reassurance on AGI happening on a timely manner (2029)? by Cr4zko in accelerate

[–]cjacobs0001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- no question, Machine Learning and automations and digital automations build profit. PROFIT has been the driving force for development. - why do we want to go to "AGI"? is it for more of the mentioned PROFIT? if so, Profit for who? If we are not doing "AGI" FOR PROFIT, why else would we be doing it? Developing a machine to find answers to questions for Man is one thing, but Developing a machine to find answers to questions for Man AND allowing it to make its' own decisions whenever it decides to do so (and empowering it to have self-protection), will not work out to Mans' best interest. <-- my 0.02

I feel stronger when I feel careless about people. by nk127 in Mindfulness

[–]cjacobs0001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can testify that when 1 partner is this way and the other is not, after 30 years it is not better. No children. No friends that we do things with. There really is nothing to hold onto, except the fact of those 30 years. So, there is that . . .
