Old Employees will leave for an other opportunity, retire, get ill... A host of issues which means just keeping the old guys in the company is a bad business decision. Now if your company is openly hostile to other groups, then you will have a general hiring problem over all.
Besides, how is treating women and minorities like a valued team member such a horrible thing? You say you want to focus on their skills but not their gender or race. However if someone from a different gender or race has to prove a higher standard, then you are not focusing on skills.
The Bro culture, isn't a good thing, it is actually very toxic even to other men working in the company. It creates a culture where you cannot ask a question or work together, because everyone is trying to pound their chest to show how much more superior they are. Only for them all just be rather mediocre, but just too impressed with themselves to realize it.
There is the 672 hour lunar day and night which could be an issue for plant growth, the the technology to make a bubble that can support prolong life in a hostile environment like the moon.
I have worked with Bosses who were like Trump. They are easy to manipulate and control, and I can normally get my way without them making any fuss, and they will often stand behind me. Their Ego is their biggest flaw, you keep their ego happy and make them feel like they are the Big Boss man who we all love. They will most of the time give you free reign, as long after your done, he looks good. They are actually extremely ineffective as a Boss, an most people really don't like them, because if you cross their Ego there is hell to pay. And their Ego would trump (no pun intended) and greater good thinking or long term thinking. And as an employee who is manipulating the guy you are also competing against other employees who may be manipulating him in the other direction.
Fat itself isn't that bad. People can be very healthy and overweight. However issues on where the fat is forming in excess is where the problems happen. If the Fat is gathering around your organs then your organs are being restricted and will not function properly. Or if you put on too much weight that affects your physical activity then health issues from lack of mobility and getting proper exercise. Also people get fat from an improper diet, so while they are getting fat they are also malnourished.
People Can be healthy and Fat. The fat itself doesn't normally hurt people, but where and how much can.
There are often appearing slim, people who have a lot of health problems because while the fat isn't showing outwardly with a big belly, it is collecting underneath the rib cage squeezing your their internal organs.
Statistically Women live longer then Men, also women statistically have a higher percentage of body fat too.
So the trick is to have bullets that can reach that altitude as well. So once the bullet reaches such altitude, it is no longer the shooters responsibility, and what happens there is no longer there concern.
While Consoles may have put a dent in the popularity of the Arcade, But the Arcade could always compete against the Console, because by the fact that they are so expensive to own, you can just have top of the line graphics and sound built in, always being a generation or two ahead of the Console.
However what really was the killer was Multi-player internet connectivity. Part of the fun of the Arcade is playing with multiple people. Many game had duel or I have seen up to 4 set of controllers so people would play against each other. Now with internet connectivity people never needed to go miles away to interact with real people.
The issue is more the fact that we are no longer dependent on the Wintell PC market like we were 10 years ago.
Think back 10 years ago. the iPhone was still mostly a gimmick then a suitable computing replacement. Microsoft while suffering for the mistake of Vista still had dominance, to a point no one would seriously think (Outside the Linux and Apple Zealots) that an other Operating System can be used for the normal home desktop. Intel had the Windows PC Market, recently got into the Apple market (which was rapidly growing to the iPod halo effect) and had been strong in the Linux market. AMD was behind the new Multi-Core CPU's and other competitors such as the Sun Ultra Sparc, IBM Power PC... Were not doing well.
The thing that Intel really didn't expect was the Mobile platform growth, with iOS and Android devices. Where having the fastest CPU wans't as big of a deal then better battery life, and small form factor. Where the smaller CPU makers had their niche and caused growth in there. They were not faster then Intel, but fast enough to run well on such a small device.
Now growth in this market didn't kill demand for PC's but what it did was software makers, started making their software and their updates suited for the lower end systems. So that laptop that you upgraded every 4-5 years became 6-10 years, because software makers need to be sure their software runs on these slower chips as well, the need for the newest and fastest wasn't as important, and many new features were expanded with the purchase of these new mobile devices.
Intel is like your Local High School football star. At the time, he was one of the most important person in the community, getting all the attention. Only for him after the next decade and college, having a respectful but uninspired role in the minor leagues. Where those quite guys that were ignored by the community became the Doctors and Lawyers who brought in the real money.
This is the type of Slashdot Article that we got back in the late 1990's. About some crazy guy trying to make something just because he could. Never mind it was practical, or profitable. Just a cool thing to do. Just like the Potato Powered Web Server back in the year 2000. Completely pointless, but just a cool idea.
And you know what, just because the idea is silly, there were probably a lot of good learning events taken place in such an exercise.
What do you think Linux is never prone to crashing? Especially with odd display settings? X-Windows (X11r6, X.Org....) has always been Linux's weak spot in terms of stability.
Out of all the time Linux had crashed on Me. It was some version of X Windows which was the problem.
It can be used to make the Employee and their Competitors lives miserable.
This is a general problem with the legal system. The process itself causes more injury then the violation being convicted of, especially if you are trying to go against someone with more money.
The biggest problem is how broad a non-compete can cover. I can see the problems they can have if I worked for Microsoft on the Windows 10 Kernel team, and I went over to Apple to work on OS X Kernel. However If I Worked on Windows 10 Kernel, and went to Apple iOS Kernel development, the non-compete shouldn't be in play. Because Windows 10 doesn't directly compete against iOS because Microsoft has stopped their mobile device development. And Windows 10 primary market is Desktop.
A Non-Compete shouldn't be broad, but very particular.
The US could lead by example. Compared to other countries the US is unique in having a Large Population, with a low Population Density. We have a lot of rural areas that are spread out, as well the US has nearly every sort of climate. If we get the US infrastructure upgraded, we have a model for many other low density and diverse climates and could pivotal in upgrading their infrastructure as well. Mainly because the more positive influence the US has in the world, the more peaceful the rest of the world would be to the US.
We have had a general lack of leadership for the past 50 years, which makes performing large infrastructure projects like this nearly impossible.
In America the biggest problem facing us isn't immigration, guns, abortion, or tax rates. But it is that we are running off generation(s) old infrastructure, for Communication, Power Transmission, Transportation, and Water. In Rural areas of America if you drive down the roads, which are often too twisted and unkempt for a fast enough driving speed, and not wide enough for multi-lane, there are modified telegraph poles, that hold haphazardly Power, Telephone, Cable, and sometime Fiber Optic, which due to the bad roads sometimes will get hit by a car and knock out a good chunk of your infrastructures in one spot. Then we have water supplies which is being polluted from older Industrial activity, or in water manes made while Lincoln was president, which are breaking and needing to be patched up, while chunks of cities need a boil water advisory.
We are living with an infrastructure of the early 20th century, which has been hacked and updated. Our Elected officials havn't been much of leaders taking advice from experts and working the tradeoffs and making a plan of action and pushing it. They have been just putting out fires, and trying to get money for their fixes.
Google is like Microsoft 20 years ago. It is popular, however its reputation is getting further tainted, mostly due to aggressive business decisions that negatively affect its customers.
This bad reputation is strongly the reason why Apple had such growth the past decade+. As demand for mobile devices increased, we no longer could make x86 compatible devices that were mobile. So the huge MS Software library would be unavailable. So people switch to Apple Devices iPods, iPhone, realizing if they are going to get new software anyways, they might as well go with a company who at the time was known for its quality and reliability. Also for those who didn't like Apple, Google was the next best thing.
Now Microsoft while still a huge company, is no longer the darling tech company, it is more like boring old IBM now, where they are now working hard to regain trust with customers again. While Google, and Apple running high on its success, started cutting corners that are pissing people off now.
However the thing is most employees already have their own devices. It isn't like the 1980's where it was a big deal for someone to have their own Computer, especially something compatible with the business, nearly everyone has their own computer that is powerful enough to do the work they need to do.
Well that is to keep the employee hired at Starbucks. However if the company doesn't mark up its products by a few hundred percent they may not have the resources to pay for all this.
That isn't an Apt anthology. It is more like you didn't lock your windows on your second floor. The crook, just use a ladder and got in stole your stuff and your home insurance which was to help cover theft didn't cover it because your house wasn't a fortress.
The problem with IT Security today, nearly every system needs military grade security on them. Which is often expensive, and hinders the overall usefulness of the IT Infrastructure.
This is why these companies buy Cyber hack insurance, to help make sure hacks don't kill the business. Now for the Insurance Company, it really should have done a better risk assessment and charged Mondelez based on their risk, gave them help on improving secure, or just rejecting to cover them as being too risky.
The problems with banks and the poor is nearly a catch 22 problem, and oddly enough there isn't much the Bank Owners can do.
To really succeed in life, you need money upfront. If you are young and can buy yourself a good working car that can last over a decade, and a good condition home where you don't need to pay rent, money to go to school and be trained to be well qualified for the workforce. So if you had all this money upfront and used it wisely. You can probably have a good life. The problem is most young people do not have money, so they need a loan, to start out their lives. Now a bank loan needs to charge a higher interest rate for higher risk people. This was a big part of the 2008 recession, the subprime loans which split the risk to the institution meant they could offer lower interest rates to higher risk people, who then got loans they couldn't afford to pay. But this means if you are poor and have less money, you need to pay more money to borrow money. This puts you in a poverty cycle. And unfortunately banks can't just give the poor lower interest rates, because they are at a such a high risk of not paying it back.
This is the reason why we need government or some non-commercial safety net services. To help get people out of the cycle. This could mean giving people money to start out their lives, or offering services where they can get affordable housing or transportation and education healthcare... These services don't fit well on a commercial business plan, because the payback is to society, not to service giving it.
One of the reason why Movies can fit on DVDs and Blueray disks, and being able to be streamed off a normal home internet connection for over a decade now, is lossy image compression. Traditional analog video sends a stream of signals at different intensities, at a predefined time, there is no buffering and no compression. The old Broadcast station makes the analog signal and the old tv picks it up and interprets it. Now if there is any interference, the screen would probably display static in some parts. Now this is actually a really good method, except for the fact that it needs a large "pipe" to go threw, and cannot interfere with other signals. To reproduce this digitally 640*480*40fps*4bytes (24bit color)*15minutes*60seconds/min = 44,236,800,000 bytes of data or 41 Gigs of data for a 15 minute video. So what do they do? The data is compressed, so other then showing each frame of data, they will render only what is different in each frame, trim out colors that we cannot see the difference...
Now this causes seeking to be choppy, because when you go back and forth, it will need to render all the bits and changes that has happened from your previous rendered screen. Keep in mind with analog video such as a VHS when Fast Forwarding or Rewinding while playing, you see the image go all wobbly and out of sync. That is because the analog signal that is being played is at a different time.
The only technology that can allow you to go back and forth and not be chunky is the Old Movie Film technology. Because it is just zooming a static picture.
The internal data isn't frame by frame, but the final display is. Being able to scrub back and forth in the video, with data buffered in it. It would make sense that frames would be buffered in RAM, for rewind and backwards features, Also with modern computers with extremely fast video cards, that can render images faster then your monitors display rate, A full frame is created and saved and displayed in sync with the display to prevent disjointed images in fast moving video. However this may not be in VCL, because this is actually a rather new feature affecting higher end systems.
For most jobs that have been automated, they weren't really having a good job. Every time I have seen this, it was some guy who really wasn't really good at his general job, but he just did that one thing all the time. He wasn't necessarily happy with his work, it was just what he did, because it was the only thing he could do. Normally after we automate the employee out, we actually hire a new employee who has better skills and we overall can get more things done.
The problem is rather complex. A natural aspect of Ageing, is that people feel more comfortable around similar people, and become more distrustful of the others. As when our biology gets past the finding a mate with good genes, to having and raising children. We get to a point on Human lives were they are protective of their clans, and normally try to keep unity within it. So from ages 0-13 Learn about culture, 14-25 find a mate, 26-60 have children and raise them to adulthood, 60+ teach culture, and lessons learned.
This is rather good set of instincts for small communities and clans. However we are adapting to a much wider world. Back in the old days before we had wide literacy, word of mouth from predominate figures (mayors, preachers, teachers) was considered to be truthful, while the gossip was considered questionable info. Then we started to get news papers, who will fact check and put predominate figures in place. The kids who are reading papers, know the BS the predominate figures are stating, but the older generation, will still cling to the fact the guy said it, that guy is important, so it must be the truth. As news papers grew, many of them started posting deceiving content, where radio/television came across. Because Broadcasting was expensive the were more likely to report on factual information and less on misleading people, besides stories where their competitors are wrong brought in more money. Then came the Internet, this gave us links to a lot more sources and allowed us to dig further then ever. That 5 minute blurb on the TV wasn't accurate or complete, plus it was full of their own bias. So people found the internet to be more trustworthy then TV news. The that leads us to today. Where we need to figure out the truth of the content we read, we know what is BS wording and what is important. But the older generation isn't properly exposed to it. So they fall for the tricks more easily. Especially if the news holds on to their world view, and doesn't try to challenge them further. To the older generation this is good news, that they can share as part of their biological need to teach culture to the youth.
My Parents who are in their 70's will often post these stories on Facebook. Look at these laws, see how the Communist used these laws to hurt people. Or take a private comment and twist it to a full conspiracy. They honestly feel that they need to spread the word, to make sure we don't do the stupid stuff that has happened in the past. However they put too much trust in the sources, and over simply a complex issue.
In general if a country is known to be actively trying to hack and break into your countries sensitive systems. And said country has a proven policy of tight control between government and industry. It really wouldn't be a good idea, to use there system to protect yours.
Can Kaspersky be honest and not send any data to its host government... Yes, it is possible. However, for the Russian Government, they are a key ready at their disposal if they ever feel they need them. Just like how the United States NSA went into the privately owned Telcos to get our telephone meta-data, without much resistance from them, because of "9/11" it would be just as easy for the Russian Government to get in and get the data.
Kaspersky, will need to do a Lot to prove their trustworthiness to be on US government systems.
I have no reason to not believe the accusations against Kaspersky. And for this story there is really isn't a connection. Because it is very easy for a company to actually do its job, and report back to its customer.
Lets compromise on second tear technology, because the other superior product doesn't oblige with your favorite license agreement.
NVidia isn't Anti-Open Source if that was the case they wouldn't be giving Linux drivers at all. They are just not pro-Open Source. They are not trying to put a stop to it, they just do not want to participate.
The biggest problem is time. The issue seems to be, for someone to be wealthy they need a lot of money up front, and if they are wise with their money they will be paying less overall. You graduate from college and you get a Home. After 30 years it is payed off, vs Renting an apartment for 20 years then buying a house. You in essence have lost so much money, because you didn't have the upfront money and credit score for a mortgage.
Going to the military for 4 years and then college for 4 years, is 4 extra years that you will need to get caught up. Granted they pay for school, but you are still starting 4 years later at an entry level position.
Now if businesses were better at factoring in military experience and equate it better to professional and education experience that may be a better route.

This is rather good set of instincts for small communities and clans. However we are adapting to a much wider world. Back in the old days before we had wide literacy, word of mouth from predominate figures (mayors, preachers, teachers) was considered to be truthful, while the gossip was considered questionable info.
Then we started to get news papers, who will fact check and put predominate figures in place. The kids who are reading papers, know the BS the predominate figures are stating, but the older generation, will still cling to the fact the guy said it, that guy is important, so it must be the truth. As news papers grew, many of them started posting deceiving content, where radio/television came across. Because Broadcasting was expensive the were more likely to report on factual information and less on misleading people, besides stories where their competitors are wrong brought in more money. Then came the Internet, this gave us links to a lot more sources and allowed us to dig further then ever. That 5 minute blurb on the TV wasn't accurate or complete, plus it was full of their own bias. So people found the internet to be more trustworthy then TV news. The that leads us to today. Where we need to figure out the truth of the content we read, we know what is BS wording and what is important. But the older generation isn't properly exposed to it. So they fall for the tricks more easily.
Especially if the news holds on to their world view, and doesn't try to challenge them further. To the older generation this is good news, that they can share as part of their biological need to teach culture to the youth.
My Parents who are in their 70's will often post these stories on Facebook. Look at these laws, see how the Communist used these laws to hurt people. Or take a private comment and twist it to a full conspiracy. They honestly feel that they need to spread the word, to make sure we don't do the stupid stuff that has happened in the past. However they put too much trust in the sources, and over simply a complex issue.
In general if a country is known to be actively trying to hack and break into your countries sensitive systems. And said country has a proven policy of tight control between government and industry. It really wouldn't be a good idea, to use there system to protect yours.
Can Kaspersky be honest and not send any data to its host government... Yes, it is possible. However, for the Russian Government, they are a key ready at their disposal if they ever feel they need them. Just like how the United States NSA went into the privately owned Telcos to get our telephone meta-data, without much resistance from them, because of "9/11" it would be just as easy for the Russian Government to get in and get the data.
Kaspersky, will need to do a Lot to prove their trustworthiness to be on US government systems.
I have no reason to not believe the accusations against Kaspersky. And for this story there is really isn't a connection. Because it is very easy for a company to actually do its job, and report back to its customer.
Lets compromise on second tear technology, because the other superior product doesn't oblige with your favorite license agreement.
NVidia isn't Anti-Open Source if that was the case they wouldn't be giving Linux drivers at all. They are just not pro-Open Source. They are not trying to put a stop to it, they just do not want to participate.
The biggest problem is time.
The issue seems to be, for someone to be wealthy they need a lot of money up front, and if they are wise with their money they will be paying less overall.
You graduate from college and you get a Home. After 30 years it is payed off, vs Renting an apartment for 20 years then buying a house. You in essence have lost so much money, because you didn't have the upfront money and credit score for a mortgage.
Going to the military for 4 years and then college for 4 years, is 4 extra years that you will need to get caught up. Granted they pay for school, but you are still starting 4 years later at an entry level position.
Now if businesses were better at factoring in military experience and equate it better to professional and education experience that may be a better route.
