It has to be explicitly illegal if we want there to be even the possibility of punishment if there's ever enough evidence that a company has been systematically rejecting people on the basis of age.
He is currently facing a Class 1 misdemeanor charge of harassment by computer, which carries with it up to 12 months in jail and a fine of up to $2,500.
I'm kind of surprised they aren't threatening him with much harsher penalties. Not that I think they should. I'm just surprised they aren't.
Is this a sore subject for you? Who said these things aren't meaningful; if anything, the idea seems to be that the societal significance of these things should be emphasized to make the subjects more interesting to women. Don't you think we can convey it better than this exciting description of Civil Engineering:
A program that generally prepares individuals to apply mathematical and scientific principles to the design, development and operational evaluation of structural, load-bearing, material moving, transportation, water resource, and material control systems; and environmental safety measures.
It's not about putting down the existing programs. It's about better presenting their true significance.
Or a child! Or someone in a coma, or a corporation... Just because an entity is recognized to have some of the rights or protections of a person, it doesn't make them an actual person equal to a competent adult in the eyes of the law.
Why would the fact that it's not legal to circumvent protection in old games be any sort of deterrent to people willing to illegally circumvent protection in current games?
You know, if you really want to show your dislike for today's articles, don't post complaints and rants--just don't post. A line at the bottom of each article saying 'Read the 10 comments' at the end of the day will send a much stronger message than any number of complaints.
And there will be much fewer tedious and annoying posts to go through for those of us unfortunate enough to have mod points today.
Last week a senior Amazon executive appeared before a US Senate subcommittee and warned that there would be consequences if federal regulators continued to act as a drag on its ambitions to launch a drone delivery service called Prime Air.
Ok, I can understand Amazon doing their testing elsewhere, but I'm not quite sure what the resultant consequence to the US is.
As for the other "reasons", they're dumb and weak.
A male partner touched your leg under a table? C'mon, really now. gender bias right there: imagine a male complaining about the same thing performed by a female: I bet everyone would laugh at him. but noo, when a woman experiences it, it's baaad, it's almost rape! Unacceptable!
That absolutely is gender bias, and a rather terrible one, but I don't understand why you're saying that both men and women should submit to it instead of saying it's unacceptable for anyone.
I find it interesting that, in the second case, an extra position was provided for the (highly qualified) minority female candidate instead of having her displace someone else.

Well, if they do things in a way that makes sense, they could be accused of doing them scientifically, and that would be a clear conflict of interest.

They were probably dreaming about what an impact it would have when they showed everyone they could do it in Texas.
"Worst happy hour ever."

It would also make any last moment threats of vengeance from beyond the grave seem much less scary.
All the comments about killing machines aside, it sounds like these could be of great benefit in search & rescue and fire fighting.
Am I the only one who finds it completely unsurprising that a painkiller would have a numbing effect?
Why not just use concrete for roads? It's hardly a new idea.

So, you could say that going to a judge first to get permission to access the data is... unwarranted.
Yes, we should make them out of magnesium. The difference in weight would allow them to get to the fires much faster.

Forget that! We need to go directly to the source and put the panels on the sun!
