Because actual kids are being filned/photographed performing such acts? Since minors can't legally give consent for sex, they are the victims in this crime.
WM and MD jobs are not there for you to "actually live" on them, most of them are not. WM has over 2,000,000 employees, those are starter jobs, as in: you have no skills, you are at the beginning of your professional career, or maybe you are a new immigrant and need the first job in the country, type of jobs.
They're not really what you believe they are. You clearly have never worked in such a place before. The minimum wage plus erratic hours is designed to ensure that you're stuck working there, it's difficult to find the time to seek out new jobs if you're also a student, parent or both. The mere fact that there are people at Walmart who have worked there for over 20 years in a low-end, low-wage position proves your point utterly false.
It's been around for years, quietly chugging away. The goal is admirable, but with the sluggish progress I've seen, I have little confidence that there will be an actual product someday that will operate as a FOSS platform for natively running Windows software.
I've been waiting for them to hit version 0.4 for about 5 years now. The goal is admirable, but by the time ReactOS hits 1.0, I can't imagine Windows will be using the NT platform anymore.
The GPS in your phone (especially inside many older office buildings) isn't quite that precise. There's a huge difference between monitoring someone's movements on a planet-wide scale (GPS) and within an office building (this device). Presumably there would be a network of ranging devices intended to create a local GPS-type field for the devices to pinpoint their location.
Also, with a cell phone, assuming it's a business phone purchased entirely by my employer for business use only (if I have to bring my own device, there's no way I'm letting my employer stick their own software on it), they could monitor my phone calls and app usage, but not much more. I haven't yet heard of an app for smartphones that can monitor its surroundings (via mic, camera, etc) without making the phone user aware that it's running.
I'm fairly sure this is referring to the Glass app that acts like a face scanner, a more casual term for a device capable of utilizing facial recognition technology in order to identify someone by their face alone. Surely it's a play on the fact that the original quote is, "Through a glass, darkly," where glass (ostensibly referring to Google Glass) is replaced with the term for its new capabilities.
Just because someone's work is up and action is happening on the computer, it doesn't mean they're being productive. Most work that requires critical thinking and creativity (which is most non-clerical work) can benefit from work breaks just as much as the work itself.
I'm someone with a hearing loss (mildly hard of hearing, good enough for one-on-one conversation, adequate in group situations, bad in loud environments) and open office plans drive me crazy. My brain spends half the time trying to catch what people are saying, even as I'm consciously trying to block it out, and then I can't hear when someone actually needs to get my attention.
It's worse when the folks who are used to talking at a low volume, to their computer screens, and can still be heard by the other person then have to talk to me, and can't figure out why I can't understand what they're saying. If they had to physically get up and walk over to me, instead of just talking across the open office, it would be far easier to work with.
I can imagine that US companies could find about three people with Bachelors in CS to work at the same rate they'd have to pay your nephew. And fifteen are applying for the same job.
Honestly, outside of academia and professional degrees (doctor, lawyer, etc), it doesn't make much sense to get a post-grad education in the US unless you know there's a job lined up for it.
That the show is attempting to trap itself in the pitfalls of 1960's filming technology. The awfully-angled flyby shots and the 5:4 aspect ratio are acceptable for TOS, but not when you're making a show in 2013. I mean, seriously, I can watch this in 720p, but only with half my screen?

Any number of vacation weeks above 0 is better than 0. I'm not sure it matters whether it's 5 or 6.
Unless it's in the contract that they have to be available after 4pm, what exactly is the problem?

I don't know what VLC player is
Well, this is the Internet. You could easily find out.
I'll bet you most American companies won't sing that same tune. They've been heading towards more work and less pay for decades.

The title is "Through a face scanner darkly."

I'm curious how much of your day you'd say you spend shutting out distractions, faking being on a phone call and so forth?
2 walls aren't much different than 3, and they're no more soundproof.
In reality, it would work better to take the preferences, then do the opposite.
Right, because that's how you foster positive employee morale.

Quiet is a fantastic book!

You go to the movies 2-3 times a WEEK? I'm not sure you're the guy to be complaining about the price of movie tickets.

Something tells me that the inmate gasping and convulsing doesn't exactly make for an easy scene to watch, either.
Even though it's since transitioned to Apache, Oracle still deserves to be graded on their handling of OO.o.

If you have the resources to put somebody in space, you can afford to pay a lawyer to answer this question....
If you have the resources to put somebody into space, but not the resources to get them back, then the lawyer you need is quite expensive...
You do realize what suborbital means, right? Please look it up and then review your question again.
