The way this watermarks are usually done is to put like white text on white background so for a visually impaired person the text2speak would read it just fine. I think depending on the word processor you probably can mark text to use with or without accessibility tools, but even in this case I don't know how a student copy-paste from one place to the other, if he just retype what he is listen then it would not affect. The whole thing works on the assumption on the student selecting all the text without paying much attention, maybe with a swoop of the mouse or Ctrl-a the text, because the selection highlight will show an invisible text being select. Or... If you can upload the whole PDF/doc file them it is different. I am not sure how chatGPT accepts inputs.

People will look at one aspect and say that the job sucks. Truth is, there is no perfect job and only you can tell that it balances out. The way you talk about it really feels like a nice place to work, with the exception of the headphones thing, that is weird. And if you like to chat with coworkers a full remote Job may be kinda hell, it is really easy to feel isolated and not connect with people because it takes more effort like going to audio or video calls to hangout or having to chat over text more

My friend likes this 3hours podcast of bunch of people in a table just chatting and talking over each other and I can't stand It, I like a 20min podcast that has a script, is edited and transmit a coherent message. Them he told me he likes to listen like in the background while working (we are programmers) and then it all makes sense. I can't listen to the type of podcasts that I like because I have to pay attention. Music is better I can tune out the music while focusing on writing code (and maybe reading code) but I can't do it while I am reading documentation and researching.

Docstrings now have their leading indentation stripped 

I foolish thought that it meant that finally python introduced a hassle free simple way to have indented triple-quoted literal strings. But no. It baffles me that you cannot have simple literal strings that are indented. This is specially annoying if you are using them as templates to output multiline text.

That is rule even waiting for more than 2 seasons... But I forgot about it the other day when my wife and I wanted to find something fast to watch and selected Kaos :(. We didn't even intended to keep watching or expectations of enjoying it as much as we did. That sucks.

I also recommend It Follows. It is so different. And the characters don't act dumb. And everything makes sense in the context. Like why they dont get a car or catch a plane, because they are broke teenagers.

One way I like to describe it is that They took one this witch trials account/documents, took it at face value and just recreated it as an historical movie.

That may vary. In my country if you want to split the bill some places will give a different number for each person but the most common is everyone at the table calculating how much each consumed and taking turns to pay your part whilst the waiter add all to make sure that the bill was all payed.

But in the US I was very surprised when the waiter asked at the end if we wanted a separate bill and they knew what each one ordered and they came back with 4 bills. I was very impressed. Granted I didn't when to that many places in group so not sure how common it is.

I update only when I reboot the machine or I have to. So it is normal for me to go 3, 6 months without updates. So it is always like 1 to 5 GB of updates. And that is because I decided to not install texlive again.

Is that a reference to that tweeter thread about it?

I think It is fair that the members of a family, that are a community living together or not, all share in the burdens of life so it is easier for everyone. But if the parents are like forcing you to pay rent, then I would just live somewhere else.

Put in another way. It is fine if you have an adult children to say "hey, help out anyway you can so it is easier to everyone" and if they cannot figure out how to do that or they are like stuck and not progressing in life then instead of an ultimatum of "pay rent" better is a "I think you need the experience of living on your own". Again I am all for money staying in the family and much prefer that or even better they saving money to buy a place than paying rent to some shitty landlord. But anyway.

I don't think they assume she could have some say, I think it is just malice, a bad faith argument on their part. They know very well and also know that their base you eat it up because they already hate the other side, they just need something that resembles a reason.
