I don't think there's ever been smart ones... They constantly have to scapegoat someone lest the rabble finds out they're just pilfering the country and everything is collapsing.
If they could read, they'd be very upset.
I hate how this is always on fucking point. These people don't have empathy until it affects them in a personal way, then all of a sudden it's "who let this happen?!"
It was you, you fucking dipshits, by not having the emotional intelligence to be able to think for one second in another person's shoes or think out the end conclusion to a piece of rhetoric.
Inside git's internal plumbing folder, git holds a file with the branch name and all of the references (files and changes) for that branch.
When you make a new branch git will update its internal plumbing checking to see if the new branch already exists, updates its references to the new branch if it doesn't (all held internally in a case sensitive way). It will then make that new branch file, git has already checked that the case senitive name for the branch doesn't exist internally, so it should be good to go.
Part of its process is creating that internal branch file... But wait!
Windows doesn't have case sensitive naming so when it tries to make that new branch file it will overwrite the old one (since it shouldn't exist by git's own reference!) All of the files and references for it now get nuked.
Now you're at best back to wherever that originally named branch came from, at worse your .git folder is properly borked.
Home Petabyte Project here I come (in like 3-5 years 😅)
But...! But...! It could teach children the different types of poker hands! Plus you have to win a certain number of chips in order to progress! This is clearly a type of gambling and should require the utmost care to prevent a child from becoming a gambling addict!!
/s (god I hope that's not needed)
By the way that's the actual reasoning why they gave it the 18+ rating.
Confirmation of anecdotes or gut feelings is still science. At some point you need data rather than experience to help people and organizations change their perception (see: most big tech companies lighting billions of dollars on fire on generative AI).
I mean I have a greyhound who can countersurf, you just put baby gates around the kitchen and food. Keeping stuff out of snoot height/range removes most issues.
Part of it is training them that it isn't an appropriate thing to do. It usually helps that if they behave (and we're eating something the pup can safely have) they get a bit of food as a treat.
Training is a must and especially with a dog that big you need to make sure they know what is expected and appropriate. Doing that sets them up for success and makes it much easier to care for them overall.
Unfortunately I wouldn't buy these given that it's from Packt Publishing. I've bought quite a few of their books over the years and more often than not they're either full of glaring writing errors that would have been caught if the book was looked at by an editor at all, the code examples have errors that require deep knowledge of said book topic to correct making it hard to progress, or the book doesn't seem to follow a linear learning path making understanding what the author is trying to convey much harder.
Don't get me wrong there are some good books from Packt, but they're much rarer than say a book from O'Reilly or Manning. They seem to just churn out content and not have a rigorous editing process meaning that it's mostly up to the author's writing ability to create something useful.
I used to grab their free ebook of the day when they used to have that and more often than not I would delete or never finish the books because they were just so low quality.
It's definitely been popped. Rip.
Yes there is! Great you have a strong, randomly generated password. There's no collateral damage (you're having your password manager generate the passwords right?) So your other accounts are safe, you only have to rotate one password.
Well what happens for instance if someone really wanted access to your account? Say it's a bank, a social media account, or maybe it's just a game account for an MMO that's super high value, you have a long and strong password, but let's say the service's security wasn't quite up to snuff or you got phished and gave your password by accident (these things happen, it's not your fault).
This is where 2FA comes in, if someone manages to break your password the attacker needs your phone, your security key, your fingerprint, etc... To prove to the service they're you. By having 2FA on the account you're increasing your defense in depth for your account. If you didn't have it your account is as good as gone as soon as an attacker cracks or gets your password.
It acts as a second lock that needs to be picked in order to take over your account.
I personally add 2FA to all of my accounts I can, the highest security ones get added to my hardware token. The ones I don't need as high security go into my password manager (which has 2FA enabled but only available via my hardware key).
Additionally as often as possible I try to use a unique email address for each service (simplelogin, addy.io, or similar, + based email addresses are easily bypassed) they all forward to my email but now you have to guess my email for the service (my own private domains, so not shared with anyone else) and what mailbox it ends up in. As a bonus you can disable emails that are sending spam or see who got breached based on the email.
Again defense in depth, a long secure password is great but that's only relying on a single lock. By having 2FA you're doubling your security so to speak by requiring that extra key in order to access your accounts.
You know how all employers have talent pools? Think of those applicants as being in a barrel and you can scoop out a prospective applicant pretty easily. Regular companies do this no problem.
Now Deloitte, being more profit focused company looks at that and says "There's obviously a better and cheaper way to do this, we're Deloitte, we know how to save cost and deliver"
They have discovered that if you go all the way to the bottom of the barrel, almost no one can extract the useless hard fibrous bottom. Deloitte broke the mold here, they exclusively extract the bottom, each applicant making the talent pool slightly larger for regular companies. Chewing the fibers into a grotesque cud-like mass that is impervious to all possible methods of digestion known to corporate kind.
They have learned to extract and refine so much of the bottom that in 2021 they ran out! They hit the very floor the barrel was placed on. Deloitte not to out do themselves thought "Hey, we did so well with the whole useless bottom thing, our clients literally can't get away. What if we tried to extract the literal floor itself? There's no end to it, we can extract it endlessly, forever!"
This method of extraction, gave Deloitte an ace in the hole, there's no possible way for another corporation to acquire talent in this manner! The quality of candidate here can't be overstated, they literally are chunks of the literal bedrock of society that produce work that would make a Jr vibe coder's AI segfault just by parsing it.
Deloitte has evolved into a parasite that sucks the life force from their clients and provides products that endlessly lose them money. Their crown jewel is literally having the worse possible employees that could provide a "working" implementation of what was requested by their client.

I've literally had to clean up Deloitte's messes when their clients don't understand why the provided software doesn't work. I've seen literal grade schoolers who can write more competent applications.
