The third paragraph presents the plaintiff's attorney's opinion as fact. That's a commonplace lawyerly PR tactic designed to allow the barrister to define the bounds of the dispute. Any competent judge is going to ignore it, and instruct the jury to ignore it, as well, because, under the law, you do not have to "take steps to make sure everyone feels welcome in that workplace." What you have to do is take whatever steps are necessary to end racial harrassment of the plaintiff in your workplace - which is not quite the same thing.
Absolutely correct.
Hostile work environments, harassment, etc. aren't about being mean, insensitive, etc. You can be an ass to your employees all you want, as long as you're fair about it. You can't have a pattern (or an extreme isolated incident) of targeting individuals or groups.
Learn to read. Rei referred to the lawsuits against Tesla,meaning Tesla was the defendant. And from context it's clear Rei is referring to all the harassment/ism-based lawsuits.
Though they're not "alive" in the same sense that you and I are, they grow and are organized into different layers like our brains are. They even react in similar ways to stimuli like psychedelic drugs.
Who's to say what they experience or feel? That they're not alive? Seems to me they're making them as close to a live brain as possible, so...
NASCAR driver Danica Patrick and magic duo Penn and Teller were among the first passengers.
Penn Jillette has a podcast where he said he wanted to be one the the first to ride on it, It's almost certain he'll be talking about it there on Sunday. It's called Penn's Sunday School.
Conversely, I doubt Teller will have much to say on the matter.
This government-only version of Amazon, which could potentially include a few other websites, would give participating companies direct access to the $53 billion market for government acquisitions of commercial products.
So this isn't about Amazon, it's about approved vendors having an easy-to-use site/portal for government purchasing. That's a good thing. We have this where I work. We get decent discounts because of it, and no one vendor is dominating.
Yes, Amazon would have an advantage here because they'll be able to devote resources to setting up shop quickly and making everything work well. But so what? That's no different than the rest of online shopping. Further, Amazon is often not the cheapest, and with an easy-to-use portal/site, it'll be easy for government purchasers to find the cheapest price on shit (if they even care).
The first amendment protects you from government censorship where it's not illegal incitement. That's it. You live in a fantasy world with your head up your ass.
That's not America, you didn't build that.
Try READING the first amendment and the rest of the constitution. It's set up that powers not granted to the federal government are reserved for the states and the people. Speech is expressly called out as a right that people have.
Uh, that changes the font to the end user, so it's thus bad. Further, of course it makes difference! If there's no visual difference to the changed font, there's no point in changing the font!
The problem here is AMD is #winning in the CPU arena, while Raja was #losing as the head of RTG (their GPU side).
Raja's double failure of Polaris and Vega GPU architectures got him shit canned. He wasn't even present for the launch of Vega, his headline project. Lisa Su suspended him immediately after he returned from that vacation. They called it a 3 month sabbatical. 40 days in and he's officially fired. It's just that his position was high up enough that they're framing it as an amicable break and he was given time to find another job before the shit hit the fan.
Have you ever heard the phrase "to seek new opportunities"? What do you think it actually means?
Take (for example) Google's newfound habit of "updating" their webfonts. How many layouts have they broken in the process? Millions.
If your website breaks because the font changes then it's not Google who deserves to be tared and feathered, but the web designer.
If you change a font used by a bunch of people without telling them and giving them an option to use the current version, you deserve to be tarred and feathered.
Why the FUCK would you pull the rug out from under someone like that?
Gold mine? Of funding, sure. They're still completely unable to monetize the platform in any sort of sustainable or profitable way. The only useful reports advertisers get about Twitter is how many of the accounts are fake.
Oh man! You better alert Congress! Did you know that you have to be 35 years old to be President???
Your revelation would shock the world and give us a clear path to impeaching the traitorous orange Ooma Loompa with tiny hands who likes to be peed on and likes to harass women and probably hates black people and, I heard, likes pineapple on pizza!
Just to recap, America is the only western country without sane gun laws, universal health care, the most controlled by religious zealots and the only country in the world opposed to dealing with climate change. It's like Americans are actively trying to be the butt of the world's jokes. It would be funny too if they didn't also have nuclear weapons and an unhinged leader.
No, that's not it at all. In this case it was: "This won't have any noticeable impact in the best case scenario, so let's not do this and let's not pay the majority of its associated costs.".
Why haven't you signed onto the "Give Me Money to Do Nothing" accord? You only have to give me all of your money, and maybe we'll get nothing done.
Not true. They could be reflectively raping each other, have a continuous circle of rape, have multiple disjoint circles of rape, have intersecting graphs of rape, etc.

Would you stop in that spot if a semi truck was backing up there?

Clearly you didn't read TFA or the law. Otherwise you'd understand. Maybe spend a bit more time on it? 3.2 minutes seems to be enough.
Fuck that. Just block the ads. The internet is a cesspool, and I'm not talking about the smut.
Uh, the original AC troll for this calls for "my DAMN balls" as the appropriate usage.
I wasn't a fan of that short lived meme, but at least do it correctly.
He's making a joke. He's referring to filters for emulating old games.

On a site running Google's analytic javascript!

This is not a falsifiable statement and therefore meaningless, Mom! GOD!!!!

They'll be dead in a few years.
Something about Hognoxious, Poperazo, and MightyMartian.
I'm sure an AC will come along and explain it to me.
Oh man! You better alert Congress! Did you know that you have to be 35 years old to be President???

Or it could just be fun. In my experience, there's usually a large body of water below.
Zero. Bubbles or suds form when dissolved soap creates a film at the appropriate thickness to form a bubble in the current environment.
I don't see how you get "relentless commitment" out of "non-binding" "agreements".
