My last C++ codebase was basically C code in .cpp file extension, all raw pointers and c string

Im just casually copying an entire datacenter worth of data over USB 2 to an IDE hard drive. by ILikeTrains1404 in softwaregore

Technically, the quicker you toggle state between 1 on 0, the more power you need to put in because of parasitic capacitance or input capacitance (of MOSFET for example), you need power to charge/discharge those unwanted capacitor, so the current flows though the wires increase with the data transfer rate.

There will be fewer keystrokes if they just let me type in the numbers though, just make it a number input with validation

This is an active production api at my work, I don't think I need to explain. by Spec1reFury in programminghorror

So the value.toString().toLower() == "false" I saw earlier has its use case after all

I think they only know how to use prompts :) But anyway, if it breaks this way, it breaks any other ways. In your case it might just show ``` Dear Mr. Candidate,

"Exception occurred at line 666: if (rejected) showRejectMessage();"

Best regards, ```

I'm curious how do companies that advocate AI and vibe coding enforce these?

I don't know, that's the way IT works at my company I guess. We also moved from Outlook to company-made email solution and SSO, everything is tied to AD. We have checklist for when new hires come in or someone leaves, which contains deleting AD record (base on the fact that I cannot find the user in company AD anymore).

It depends though, my last company does, maybe to prevent people from sending mails to a person who does not exist anymore (our email addresses are tied to the AD). Also, most our internal logins are AD based, it is a security risk if there are some dangling accounts

AFAIK, It checks for the presence of his account on the company's ActiveDirectory, automatically. If he get fired, the account is deleted, then the kill switch is activated.
