As an aside, there is an episode of the Cosmos reboot that talked about Photometry at a mile-high level. I had never heard of it before, but it is supremely interesting.
The culture has to change from within. There is no reason why that information can't be shared among employees. As the user above you said, retaliatory action to that activity is in fact illegal. Just because the culture of where she works says it is not does not mean she is at all in the wrong for doing it, or that the retaliatory bullshit that was experienced was warranted - even if it was 'expected' as you say.
I for one side with the person who threw together the spreadsheet, not with Google who is trying to sneak by with not paying everyone equally.
Your assertion that the poster above you lives in a fantasy world for thinking that sharing salary information is a protected activity is frankly a nauseating attitude. One that I hope we all in tech can fix.
Feel free to explain why please.
You should check out some of the documentation on Linode's site. They have some great tips about doing some very basic security such as securing SSH, keeping things updated, etc. Worth a peek.
( ._.)
Yeah I don't find their data convincing really. Ignoring that they have a biased sample to work from, and not knowing how the app works (do users elect when to tell their mood to the app? does the app ask? this could be a source of bias certainly), it is hard for me to look at these graphs and say wow. I'd imagine there are a number of confounding variables not being controlled for here. Life events that have nothing to do with sleep, etc? I'd be curious to see if that sort of thing was considered.
There is no statistical analysis happening here. This is just a presentation of what appear to me to be dubious looking graphs. I'm not convinced of any of this.
Additionally at the bottom of the page: "For the sleep analysis, we looked only at moods logged within 3 hours of the user waking up to reflect the impact of the user’s last sleep on the user’s mood."
That certainly introduces a lot of uncertainty.
I think you vastly underestimate how capable developers are of learning new programming languages.
Why use emacs or vim if you have ed?
Frankly I am amazed that legislation didn't pass. Glad, but amazed.
It does; thank you.
Just because it works doesn't mean it is the right solution of course.
Rousseau would probably say that a business's interests are inherently selfish and not in line with the general will of the populous. Businesses, in my mind, are not members of a republican government. An argument as to why they are will frankly never make any sense.
Additional edit: There is a huge amount of evidence that can be seen already about how businesses wreak havoc on political systems. The United States is a perfect example over and over again. Whether is it government intervention in the forming of labor unions, military intervention around the world and in south america (especially the early 20th century), corporate sponsorship of congressional members, etc - we can already see that this is a thick cloud over our representative government. Noam Chomsky has written extensively about this. Our senators and representatives are continually caught up in this via lobbying and etc. When you let businesses into the process as much as we have you will have problems - but if you allow them further access beyong what they currently have then that would be absolute insanity.
Can I get an explanation of what this is before I sign up? There is a sentence on the homepage, but it tells me next to nothing.
How can I turn it off? This is completely off-putting and frankly, to me, no better than the nonsense amazon referral stuff in the Unity lens.
Why does this exist in the first place? How do you justify showing ads?
"The Super Rich Technologists Making Dire Predictions About Artificial Intelligence club gained another fear-mongering member this week: Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak."
This article is immediately nonsense.
That's a nice post hoc rationalization
Come on, you did sort of ask for clarification didn't you?
You are creating a straw man argument here.
Not to be rude, but I honestly am unable to determine if you are being sarcastic.
A lot of universities have policies surrounding using work you've done for other classes in subsequent classes too. For instance, if you write a paper for one class and use it in whole, or in part in a different class.
I think posting finished homework online is a silly thing to do regardless. There's no reason to do that. I'd wager students get informed of these policies well before it gets anywhere close to where this went.
I think I am going to switch to plan 9.
Are stored procedures not something that people are using any more?
Jazz is an abysmal product compared to JIRA.
That is a pretty skeezy domain name.
Add an issue on the github project if you please!
You're still being assaulted by a refresh rate. This is what causes eye fatigue. Flux will not prevent computer vision syndrome. We've got to take care of our eyes.
Additionally, walking around aimlessly in the city where I live, a lot of the time, is simply not a safe thing to be doing. While the article mentions some differences between our world, and the world of the creative thinkers, it leaves out to a certain extent that a lot of people live in densely populated cities with minimal access to green space. If I wanted to go for an aimless walk in the woods, I'd have to drive to the suburbs and find a forest preserve.
It is relevant to the discussion as an example.
If his views and morals clash with basic human rights, then he deserves whatever "intolerant" reactions he receives.
This is hard for me to understand with the abbreviated commands.
