You don't work in healthcare do you? What the MD says is what you do. Unless you are willing to back it up with a thesis, which gets tiring. Sure there may be some management that can make some decisions but those are only ones that don't directly affect the MDs
It isn't illegal. The H-1B workers need to get paid the same minimum wage as the Americans. The thing is getting a severe pay cut is worse then getting let go. When you are let go you can at least find an other job. The problem is that these H1-B workers don't know the cost of living so they agree to much lower pay
Healthcare is 10 years behind the rest of the industry in IT infrastructure. This is because they keep on cheating out on their IT spendings and those Medical Doctors think they know how to do the work themselves and those hired IT guys are those little people who can do the grunt work so they don't have to. Most of these security problems isn't the staff or developers fault. But the management who just doesn't get what it takes to keep the data safe and doesn't trust their staff to come up with proper recommendations
Not so much the need for universal basic income. But the need to change education with more math, science, art as well more liberal arts studies. The jobs of the future may not need college degrees but they will need to take advantage of the humans ability to improvise think on their feet and be creative. The education system has been fighting creativity for generation and now it is producing useless workers. As the current education system was made for the budding industrial economy where people were able to read and comprehend tasks they need to do and have enough math skill to not get cheated. Today we need smarter people and let the robots do the drugs work.
1. Is this spacebar scroll part of the HTML standards? or is it just something the browser does as a feature? 2. Web and HTML isn't the same beast it was 20+ years ago. It is considered more of a thin-client interface protocol then a document reader. Much like many standards that came into play. It may not be the best technology for the job. But it is something that everyone has available. Unlike say XWindows Server, VNC, Remote Desktop, or SSH client... Nearly every modern computer has a browser. and Web hosted apps solve the problem of complex deployments where trying to keep all the users up to date is nearly impossible. The idea of scrolling down big documents are less of an issue and more of an application method. 3. The keyboard is not a widely used technology for navigation. Most people use the pointer device and most have a scroll wheel or some equivalent scrolling gesture to them. 4. The Page down is a Jarring UI experience. This was originally done due to system performance. As the resources needed to animate scrolling was high. As well it was easier to cache in memory. Most people don't read with the page down. They may use it only as a faster way to get to the bottom.
When the Web was released keyboards with a LOT of extra keys were popular, and they were some systems sold without pointer devices. However today most browsing folks do not have a physical keyboard now. Trying to make sure your web site/web application supports all those crazy keystrokes they did doesn't make much sense. And would require much more effort than to appease some old guys habits.
Why would you say that? There was a underemployed working class made up just by skin color. Afraid of trying something new in fear of being labeled a communist. You better make sure most of your income goes to keeping up impressions.
Doesn't E=MC^2 still? So even if we have 100% efficient conversion of Mass to Energy you will still need mass to convert to energy... That we don't have infinite of.
There has always been a gap between the big boss man and the workers. Communism started because of these issues. During the 1990s we were at a peak. Cold War ended we were for the most part at peace with the world. People were working to fix the Y2K bug or replacing their infrastructure. It was mostly due to circumstances and the tech bubble. Not politics.
Part of the issue from getting out of the 2008 Recession is the fact we do not have too many major players that came up with something new. The few exceptions are the gig economy jobs. Were people can empower themselves to make some extra cash on their free time. The problem became when these people made it their full time jobs.
Having worked as an independent contractor before. I still needed to follow the rules of my customer. In this case the customer is Uber. States when hiring contractors often having rules where the need to disclose their incomes, bonuses if they are a minority...
I don't quite get the point of the article. US bonds are a low return but safe investment. Most companies do some bonds on their portfolios just to make sure their money is diverse. Currently bond returns are under standard inflation so the government is getting money for cheap. Now the real question is if the government is taking advantage of this cheap money and using it to fix things that can have a greater return then what the bond price is.
It isn't going to work. People will keep denying even if they are swimming off the torch from the statue of liberty. Once you get into conspiracy logic, nothing is going to change their minds.
While I am a fan of free speech. These people need to get their soap boxes removed, as they are just confusing the issue. Plus the fact that Trump won in spite of the poll numbers, causes the people on the edge to slip into conspiracy reasoning, and not trust the data.
What I think we needed is some trusted method to broadcast the validity of a statements people makes over our media. To let people know what the BS Meter is.
But it is a big company changing something that we took for granted in the 1990's. There has to be a motive behind it that is meant to screw with us.
Granted I remember back in the good old days of the 1990's where printers were setup with a static outside address. And when there was that LPR buffer overflow hack there were hundreds of wasted pages from people trying to hack the printer in hope it was an old unix server with the LPR flaw in it.
The problem is some radical views are helpful to society. They are often considered radical because it is demanding a change to a problem that is failed to be recognized. However with "Fake News" we are getting people radicalized over issues that do not exist. Like that nut who recently shot up the sandwich shop, because fake news made it seem like they were doing human trafficking from those Evil Democrats. Other than blind censoring where the radicalized people just discuss off the grid, and build up their anger from not feeling the ability to speak their believes. I would like to find some way to flag truthfulness of stories. So we can get a good idea on the nature of the story. Opinions-Unvalidated: some guys rant of the day without any valid facts to back it up. Opinions-Validated: some guys rant with with valid facts to back it up Opinions-Untrue: some guys rants with facts shown false Parodies: Meant as a joke or exaggeration of an event for entertainment purposes. News - Unvalidated: News from facts that cannot be validated News - Breaking: News with facts that are incomplete and open to change News - Validated: News with validated facts News - Untrue: News with facts shown false
If we can fairly classify such articles where people can trust them. And properly educate people to realize the difference.
The article about the sandwich shop seems like a parody to me, trying to pinpoint the perception of Clinton's untrustworthy nature.
Probably not. However there is a problem that wealth in states isn't equally distributed per individual and per area. So while some States may have sufficient funding from its own tax income for such programs, other states do not. I would much rather see a lot of our federal taxes go to money to the states without strings attached. So yes the New York City citizen may be funding services for Arkansas for a service they may not agree with. It puts what is done and not done back to the states, where the individual citizen has more political power to control and say that I do or don't want that.
Every State has a different culture and needs. When the federal government Right leaning or Left leaning, push out these initiatives undoubtedly some states are going to be getting the short end of the stick because such policy doesn't match that state's culture and priorities.
Cities to operate need a large infrastructure to operate so government support is needed to keep all the gears rolling. Rural areas need less minute infrastructure but their sparsity requires them to try to solve the last mile problem. Where they find that it may be easier for them to do it themselves.
The problem with today's politics on the federal level is they all talk about the idea that all states are equal and need the same things to operate. But things are different.
Here is a simple example. To survive in the Northern US you will need heating. If you don't have heating during a harsh winter you could die. In the southern portions of the US Heating is something you can for the most part go without for your home. You may have a few cold days where you can bundle up, but home heating is a luxury item. However in that region AC is far more important, while up North it is a luxury item.
It would depend on how well the prison is ran. Often the jails are just filled with drug offenders. Not the harden criminals. For a nerd it would be like being at high school again.
However many IT Guys are just as big and tough as any other person who goes into prison. This is 2016 not the 1980's Revenge of the Nerds movies.
Well it was done on the guys personal time. It may had made sense to not to try to get too greedy. If he needed to hire an outside contractor to do the work, over $100.00 is not unreasonable. However most companies who have to do the random residential fix, usually tries to cut them some slack and do the work at cost, as to not garner bad reviews.
Now this is actually a tricky concept. The GNU People think software should be owned by anyone with. While most companies who make their money writing software wants controls on what is happening so they can support and make money off it. Then you get to the problem where these systems are all hooked up to a network and are communicating with other systems. Where we need to be sure that we get constant updates to these systems otherwise we will be part of a problem of creating more insecure networks and makes it easier for malware and hacks to become really common.
You could use the same argument that is used for Vaccines, that you should be forced to update as to help keep the overall network secure and operational. However unlike vaccines, there are good reasons to not upgrading. Mostly due to backwards compatibility issues that occur, and for the case of going from Windows 7 to Windows 10 switching to an interface that is dramatically different and not necessarily optimized for your work.
If we were to own our software again... We will need to be responsible for any problems that we may cause to the outside public. And most people are just not savvy enough to do this.
If the facts from the journalism puts him in a bad light then it is "shit-journalism". If the info about him is positive no matter how incorrect it is it is good journalism.
To be fair since the release of the original iPhone. What really new technology had came out that really made us excited? The closest I can think of is the 4k tv. And the ultra high resolution displays where Apple introduced on the iPhone 4. Where for the most part is kinda of a yawn.
the MacBook today looks nearly the same as a Powerbook 15 years ago. Sure it may be thinner and lighter and some cosmetics. But there hasn't been a big change in design for a long time.
Much of the advancements in technology had been on the dull side. Better batteries, smaller components, faster networks. Removing the last bits of mechanical parts from computers.
Well out of the other leaders in the world he seems to be the only one betting a business model on overall cultural progress.
Zuckerberg - A platform where you can gossip and spy on your old high school crushes. Bezos - A platform that can ship stuff you want to your door.
Musk - Focusing on clean energy, cleaner transportation, and space travel (that isn't so clean), but finding ways to make peoples lives better and push society to the future without it trying to wait for the other companies to change what they are doing only when they find out it is too late.
The question was if there could be a problem with Smeared Time. I have an answer. It probably isn't the best solution to the problem, but it is a problem that exists.
There is a middle ground. But it is very thin. Being that most muslams are good and decent people who are at risk from discrimination a database can be used to help protect them. That is the middle ground, and that is a bad argument because it is so open to abuse that it will probably make it worse, but if the correct effort was put in place it could work. But as I sated a very thin middle ground to work with.
I need to agree. The news loves to take "no comment" as an admission of guilt. Trump is very anti-journalism I can see things going two ways. 1. Expansion of fake news and more emotional profit driven journalism. 2. A renewed effort into making journalism a trusted source to get information free of trying to push a political bias.
I would love to see #2 but I get the feeling we are just going to get more crap stories trying to get an emotional response vs forcing us to look at what is really said and in context.
