Yes...yes there is.....at least we can all agree either one is better than visual studio.
var modernRequirements = getModernDevelopmentRequirementsVector (); var mostRelevant = (
from editor in new [] { vim, emacs, visualStudio }
let features = getFeaturesVector (editor)
let relevance = modernRequirements - features
orderby relevance
select editor ).First();
The whole idea stinks of a special-interest-group-funded study to show that their interests should be respected.
Seriously? Maybe I'm the one-in-a-million case that doesn't follow the flock but the single and only reason I work is FOR THE MONEY. No amount of spin from people with larger foreheads than I will convince me otherwise:D
All the validation, satisfaction at mastering a subject, etc... etc.. can be generated in my own time in a manner that suits ME. Neither employees nor employers should kid themselves - this isn't going to fly.
I thought the Peace Prizes to Gore and Obama to be the most asinine thing that the committee has ever done.
To implicitly compare those two politicians to the likes of King or Gandhi just disgusts me.
What next, giving one to Jethro Tull?!
Jethro Tull is more deserving of a peace prize than someone presiding over illegal wars on several fronts; unless Jethro Tull is a secret war criminal?
Fast forwards to the future where a single remaining company makes software - the remainder simply squabble over patents. Within that single company, only a single employee produces any output, the remainder are organized as multi-layer management-oversight.
The donor didn't bring the child into the world - he donated a substance - everything else was a side-effect of the parents' actions.
Now you are just being pedantic. The donor donated the sperm with a specific goal in mind. You might as well say that all fathers are just donating a substance, and everything else is a side-effect of the mother's egg's actions.
No! The act of conceiving was carried out by the lesbian couple. The donor merely provided technical assistance to help them overcome the shortcomings imposed by nature. If same-sex couples are to be afforded equal rights, they must share equal responsibility. The conscious choice to impregnate should be the legally-defined act of procreation, a generalization of the equivalent point provided by nature so-as to include same-sex couples; therefore the donor shares no responsibility.

How much ambiguity was there in the situation and the contract such that a lawyer was necessary? If it's an unambiguously-worded agreement - are laywers necessary?
Indeed - the piracy is way more enjoyable than the music - I suspect that the industry has realized this which explains the recent decade of shitty 'music' which is present merely to be pirated rather than audibly consumed:D
This Becker person and his colleague are sick, demented, abhorrent creatures who should be treated for psychosis. Only an inhuman fiend would ever suggest such a thing as creating a capitalist market for human organs. Just sick
You're saying that it's ridiculous to compare slavery to the situation of lowly-paid employees trapped in cycle of poorly-paid jobs such that they cannot afford to spend time acquiring skills needed to better their situation?
If so, please go ahead; ridicule the comparison - I dare you:P
There's a lot of this going around. From the top of my head:
* Gambling in its various forms: National Lotteries, horses, cards, roulette, dogs, etc...
* Cigarettes, alcohol, the various party drugs
* The cosmetics industry - playing on fear of being unattractive/old to turn a profit
* Firearms industry - playing on people's fear of safety and inability to perform drive-bys effectively

Please try harder.
I see a lot of job ads and 'enjoy' deciphering recruiter-speak.
For instance "Excellent Opportunity" invariably means "shitty pay - the only way is up."
Only one more digit to go...
Which doesn't invalidate with my point.
Clarifying car analogy: Stealing a car which is about to be made a gift without your knowledge, is still theft.
Also, you should be more concerned that Jeb knew the 'result' before the count was in.
If you think back/check, GWB wasn't actually elected the first time around. Noone seems to care though.

Yes, because every agreement between groups of people must be taxed by lawyers. I call BS on this.
Parental-rights can be handed-over to another who agrees to take accept them as their own.
In this case, the parents are the lesbian couple.
Biological parent != parent. Duh!

Then I will lobby to make it illegal to not provide me with a magic golden-egg-laying pony each time I wake.
a magic pony that lays gold eggs.
Which company holds the patent for being a patent troll?
Agreed - we should have a layer of censoring which protects us from their intolerance :P
I suspect most doctors would be horrified at being suspected of this but I agree with your assessment; unconscious bias is tricky.
Yep; Becker for president!!
No, I mean... using logic, ridicule the comparison.
It's not enough to just repeat "it's ridiculous"; actually explain how it's not a similar situation, enforced by different means.
Where do you live? I'll be right there! :P
