In the US there are few scenarios where there is an employment contract. The vast majority of employment is "at will"; an employee can quit (or be terminated) at any time for any reason, so long as it is not expressly forbidden by law (e.g. firing someone for race, sexual orientation, age, etc). In particular, at-will employees are not guilty of breach of contract for working multiple jobs - there is no contract


However, there is typically a code of business conduct and other things along that line that an employee agrees to even if there isn't an explicit "contract" as there often is in Europe for example.


Yeah if it's more like "you work for me; I pay you as long as the results are good but will fire you at will" it's much easier to pull this off while maintaining a clear conscience.


This is not true, I purchased a Model 3 brand new in 2021; it has HW3 and it absolutely does phantom braking regularly on road trips. This is on US interstates.


Why do you keep driving it? I had a car that did this to me twice and got rid of it, the first time could have been a glitch but twice is simply broken and dangerous. The dealer said the car was fine.


All car brands ADAS are imperfect. If it phantom brakes you just push the accelerator, or simply don't use the ADAS.

You can drive the car normally, you aren't forced to use ADAS if you don't like it.


Yeah just gotta turn it off every single time you get in the car.


No? What are you talking about. Just like basic cruise control, you don't have to "turn it off". It just doesn't work until you don't enable.


Unfortunately on that particular car it was on by default and short of sabotaging the hardware it would stay on.


The civil rights movement was ~60 years ago, this is absurd even on its own terms.


In the US, sure, but the rest of the world is in varying states of dealing with long seated prejudices.

The issue I have with the US is that for all the talk of trying to rectify racism everyone seems more intent on "othering" than ever before. By that I mean it spends significant time trying to slot everyone into categories so they can then be treated in some prescribed manner. These categories are not based on the actual needs of individuals, but a persons RGB value. The policies in the US, at the governmental and private level say that people, based on color, are not equal, and some people need more help and others less. It's prejudicial at the core and the whole way of looking at things needs to be rectified.


ASP.NET Core defaults to Kestrel even on Windows


They're not saying people associate the Brave browser with child porn/illicit markets, but rather the IPFS protocol


Not necessarily, the market often isn't rational


Probably ran out of memory.
