Idk man, I have a federally compliant 1 way pager. So it's not illegal. We score the highest marks on our DoD security audits every year. Theyre distrubuted from the security office, so I'm sure they do some sort of vetting on each individual one.

We're a govt contractor, but our civilian govt counterparts use them too

People that work in classified environments. You can't have smart devices (phones, watches, anything that communicates with the outside) while in these controlled spaces. pagers are acceptable because they're 1 way communication, so there's no risk of data leaks from the classified space

This was our company too. They struck some sort of deal with chat gpt that we use their base code, but aren't connected to their machine learning. Feels like a pretty reasonable approach in my opinion.

So our training was, "use ours. Don't use anyone else's because we don't want our proprietary information out there to never be able to be scrubbed from the internet"

I think it was sent late night, and the implication is that they will be waking up soon to see it

Some office work too though. If you want to actually win the contracts, you gotta go fast. Granted, it's not fast all the time, and we can plan when those contracta sprints are coming, to an extent, but I would definitely describe my office job as fast paced.

Not to mention when the customer changes the statement of work you're bidding on...

My wife does. But she's a sucker for "a good deal"

I dont ever click on them myself, but if I start searching for something I need/want, and I see a brand I'm familiar with thru advertising, I'm more likely to explore their product, at least. Simply just because, "of I've heard of this before"
