It's part of the agreement before starting the job, which hardly makes it retaliation. And yes it's clearly a factor in encouraging the employee not to leave, which is why the employee shouldn't agree to it unless they believe the compensation is reasonable.
It inon-competes have nothing to do with the employee being irreplaceable or even difficult to replace, it's about them having knowledge of internal company details that could give competitors an edge. The incentive to not leave is just icing for the empoyer.
And why should an employer pay an employee more than what the "market will bear" regarding the salary. Does the employee also refuse to buy things on sale in shops and instead pay extra for everything they buy? Of course when times are good said employer is likely to see a bunch of resignations, so generating some good will is usually better than milking out every cent.
Obviously taking a job which requires an enforcable non-compete is a stupid thing to do, unless the compensation is significantly better than alternatives. And if there's a recession and there are 10 other people who will take the job with the non-compete then tough shit, change careers to a different industry with different working conditions.
It wasn't waiting an hour or two. It was having to drive to the bookshop assuming they are open - which is the opposite of the relaxing reading you want to be doing.
Basically an e-reader lets you not do any planning or thinking in advance for your reading...
To be frank, my main purpose was to address the problem we had with ever-growing, increasingly-unstable, easy-to-trip-over piles of books scattered somewhat randomly around our house
Except that that statement wasn't talking about game compatibility with the next console generation, but about transferring downloaded games to a new console of the same flavor. E.g. your PS3 gets thrown out the of the 30th floor window when you die for the four hundredth time in a room on some game, when you buy a new one your playstation store download purcheses can just be downloaded to it. Do the same with your wii and your wii store download purchases went out the window with it.
Changes in price have exactly no effect on how much energy is required to produce the item or how much energy it will produce. And hence are irrelevant to the calculation at hand.
Where are all the people you do take as credible, who are interested enough in something to spend time writing and publishing about it but have no agenda related to it?
It's not contradictory, it's just incorrect terminology.
By "commercial" they mean "non-GPLv3 compliant", which is wrong since GPLv3 licenses can be used for commercial products just fine. And you could not want to use the GPLv3 for a non-commercial project...
But it's a common error, since the overlap is rather large.
The US is a huge exporter of many things. Food being the obvious one (heck the US has a $10 billion trade surplus with China in agriculture). It is the world's third largest exporter.
And the being an even larger importer, which isn't a problem in itself but that's supposed to a feature of a country building it's infrastructure not of the top of the developed world, is going to fix itself at some point. The dollars been on a downward trend (with upward spikes every so often as with everything) for a long time, as imports get more expensive and exports earn more local currency that will reverse itself.

But how much sugar did your diet start with?
Potential!
GMO corn potentiailly attracts aliens too.
The energy required to make it happen would kill us all probably by turning all the inner rocky planets to molten balls of slag.
But how will I view the help?
For when that HIPAA audit occurs, or when something fails (while you are on vacation, etc) and no one ends up being on call for a weekend.

And the government will do enough squinting to frame it as an terrorist attack on essential energy infrastructure.

No it protects you. It harms the employer.
If not being able to work for X months after the job isn't worth the pay then don't take the damn job, or ask for more pay or to strike that clause.
People only live for a year in your world?
Timothy you are an idiot.
I take it slashdot uses the same policy.
Comparitively to what? What better method do you have to turn heat into electricity?
Lots of people use gimp. But no it won't be worth your time.
There's this new invention called the bookcase.

No one called it space.

And displacement is not distance in your world, because ..?
And destroy your economy in one 3 simple steps.
You just made the do-nothing-useful service sector even bigger and annihilated the manufacturing sector. Oh and welcome to the mega-mega-corporation.
People can't change their views? Things can't be good for an individual (or company) but bad for society as a whole?>

The damn summary comment gave one scenario. I'm sure if you try you can come up with others.
I never claimed the US was being hypocritical, so I can't see why I should be justifying a claim I didn't make.
