The 8th Amendment is for penalties from criminal cases brought by the State not civil cases. That's where your confusion comes from. There is nothing dishonest and is proper jurisprudence since that was the intent of the Amendment when ratified.
You realize they've had power outlets in the cockpits for quite some time, right? Oh no! How will the pilot ever figure out how to plugin a power cable!
Because clearly they will never actually do any testing before deploying this... No all these airlines and the FAA are just too dumb to have thought of something like testing.
Except the sysytem of constantly updating printed books is not flawless at all in the airline industry. If it was they wouldn't be going electronic in the first place. It takes way more effort to constantly print and disperse new updates to charts than to push a new documentation update on the EFB app.
How is that statement FUD? What fear, uncertainty or doubt is it spreading? Also, no, they won't have to have paper backups though the National Business Avaiation Association does recommend having paper backups for a transitional period. From
When transitioning to a paperless cockpit, FAA approval is not required, however it is recommend that operators carry paper backup materials during the initial transition period. The pilot in command of the aircraft is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the proper aeronautical charts are available for the flight, so it is important to validate the reliability of the iPad during the transition.
If the iPad is not charged then obviously they... plug it into the outlet i the cockpit and charge it. And how exactly is their offline documentation going to get 'hacked'? And how would it be any more of a problem then someone maliciousy changing their printed documents?
Probably higher, but I don't know what they pay for the condo if anything. If this is then considered compensation it might fall under 1099 nonemployee compensation which means you technically should pay taxes for it. I'm not a CPA, though. Either way, asking people to come for a week-long interview at shit pay for some slim chance of a job still seems scammy.
Around $500-$700 in Jacksonville. So basically about 1/3rd to 1/2th the salary of only a mid level programmer. Closer to 1/4th if you're a senior developer.
Unlike a standardized test, though, no one has to take their quiz and as such people will just blow them off. They're the one's losing out as the OP states.
What shitty companies have you interviewed for that required long distance travel but didn't pay for travel and accommodations? Have companies really gotten this stingy recently?
How exactly is this volunteer work? Also, this is nothing akin to working for a non-profit charity. And if you don't want to belive me just check out what the Department of Labor says:
Under the FLSA, employees may not volunteer services to for-profit private sector employers.
They're not only investing in you by purchasing travel arrangements
It's not an investment. It's standard business etiquette and is a normal cost factored into interviewing and hiring people since some amount will have to travel for the interview. Any company who didn't do this should be looked upon as extremely assholish cheapskates and not a good place to work for. Paying for standard business expenses in exchange for a week of free labor is a raw deal no matter what spin you give it.
You realize this is for low-latency, real-time applications, right? FLAC would be terrible in that arena.
And yet Adobe and Autodesk make software for production on tablets. The users of GarageBand would also probably disagree with you as well.
So spend more than a laptop that will outperform it and have longer life?
What copyright? 'Exchange' itself is not even a Microsoft trademark.

Obviously not or they would have done so, no?
Except this wasn't a punitive damages award. It was statutory damages.
The revolution is when you start it, but that requires leaving mommy and daddy's basement instead of playing armchair general.

Except that the ban on electronic devices was mostly due to fear not facts.
Link got fucked. It's here.

Considering the crappy quality code and insecurity of many e-commerce sites, yes.

It's a week that you have to take off from work. For a lot people that's probably half their yearly leave.

The Fair Labor Standards Act forbids volunteering for for-profit companies for precisely this reason and there are no exemptions.

Their emphasis not mine.
So basically indistinguishable from any other application written on Rails? *ducks*
