Seriously, a $1,300 laptop that requires a internet connection, lacks a load of applications and has a 32gb SSD. Does google think people are mentally retarded?
You're a clueless tit. Even the poorest countries have rich people running the country into the ground. You should go to Somalia. They can use all the shit in your head as a renewable energy source.
I think a fair amount of people being brought into IT in any country aren't as highly skilled as they're supposed to be. There's an abuse going on by some companies to drive costs down.
There's nothing wrong with immigration. In fact the best way they could balance it out is by letting anyone freely live anywhere and apply for any job. But you don't get that, you get immigration that primarily benefits rich people and companies. There's plenty of jobs out there. It's just that some people aren't allowed to apply for them.
There's a black president. Depression and anger must be at an all time high in the south. Hawaii is so far from all the bullshit that it's no wonder they're the happiest.
Because that's what a lot of them think they are supposed to do. One of my last employer's Filipino workers would easily put in over ten hours a day including weekends. Sometimes I'm not sure they ever slept because I'd be putting in longish hours too and they would replying to email and stuff at like 3am their time. That doesn't necessarily change just because they're in the country. Not every country abuses it's Immigrant staff but unfortunately a lot do
You can do well by moving (I have) but keep in mind Canada and Europe will have the same issues sooner. Cameron is already trying to work out fully selling out UK IT to India.
It depends on how you compensate them. Some do get the equivelant of a really nice wage through freebies like travel home and free housing but the one thing that would give them real freedom (cash) they don't get much. I knew a guy that took on a nice wage at one of my jobs but he said he was struggling despite having a much higher wage and that's because he had to live in the real world and pay for everything he wanted.
Indentured servants were paid with housing, food, clothing and training and basically everything they would have bought anyway unlike slaves. But we're closer to that than I think people realise. Some workers are provided housing and even trips back home. Yes they're given a minimal wage but that's only because the employer had to otherwise we would be back to full on indentured servitude.
Yeah but a lot of console games are more arcade-like and fast action rather than slow with strategy. That and a lot of people would still be thrilled to get 100 ms ping.
Seriously, who uses a reusable bag and doesn't wash it? You wouldn't (I hope) wear underwear forever without washing them so why would you do that with the thing that holds meats and veg?
Possibly. I assume it would be a cost issue for you but people do build their own cars. They might not make their own windshield but a lot of manufacturers probably don't either.
None of those old single player games were designed for lag and the vast majority of people just don't have the net connection for it. There's a reason online streaming of games went no where, it sucks.
The only way to ensure more of the population gets a degree is by lowering the bar. Face it, a lot of people aren't that smart especially if they went through mandatory schooling where you can't fail and they just slide you through.

At least a macbook air works fine without the internet and serves as more than an email and youtube device. Google is just taking the piss.

Meetings aren't work.

So if the workers do like their bosses do it's wrong? Less work and big pay is what management is all about.
1861 wants its flag back too.

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion but I assume you don't use twitter so there may be some true that.

Maybe not. They'll likely be up for working much longer hours so they're cheaper even at the same wage.

Probably the same as in the UK, by living basically in poverty in their own or twenty of them house sharing. That's how the polish do it.
A lot of businesses do conferencing and desktop sharing through java applets so it's more likely companies will be running them than consumers.
As someone who developed Java for a few years, I never enabled applets. No one really develops applets.

Netbsd is a big gaming platform after all.

Did you know mobile gaming is going to be bigger than everything? It's true, any day now. Everyone should be into it.
