This means companies tend to favor recent computer science grads from top-tier schools who have had time to cram; in other words, it doesn't help diversify the field with women, older people, and people of color.
I suspect that, in many cases, that's the actual goal of the entire interview process. It's a clever, subtle way of discriminating with plausible deniability.
The what's your objective definition of what is abusive? If it's that simple, the only reason for you to not provide it is that it's not that simple, and you're lying about it being that simple.
Tells us that Microsoft's executive staff is accustomed to having their PCs reboot at random times, with no option to have whatever they're working on, and being unavailable for extended periods of time while it does.
Which tells us a great deal about Microsoft, and Windows. (And how important the work their executive are doing really is.)
It isn't even theoretically possible to formulate an objective definition of "abuse," and when all definitions are subjective, all decisions on who is abusive are subjective. There is literally nothing that anyone can say that won't offend someone.
There is only one thing they could possibly do to "stop the abuse," and that is to shut Twitter down.
I'd be fine with that.
If you have something to say that can be said in 140 characters, you have nothing to say.
Very few movies are worth watching for free. Paying several times as much to watch it over two weeks after it hits the theaters? No thanks. I think I saw two or three movies in the theater last year.
Here's a clue for you, Hollywood: If you want more of my money, make more movies that don't suck throbbing purple donkey dick. But we all know that's not going to happen.
Whether or not Kim Dotcom is likely innocent or guilty, this finding will neither improve NZ and completely fails in protecting at least one of its' citizens.
Neither will pissing off the United States, so I think the situation might be a bit more complicated than your fifth grade civics class suggests.
Indeed, one of the fundamental principles of freedom is property ownership. That means you aren't allowed to destroy other people's property with booby-traps without being punished.
If you don't like it, live in a place without property ownership rights.
The correct answer to laws you don't like is to change the law, not engage in criminal acts. Of course they believe they can act lawlessly - people like you do so all the time, so it must be OK.
Ever tell someone that you've changed email addresses, and they just won't stop using the old one? If they don't eventually get bounce messages, they will never switch to the new one.
(Personally, I consider these people too stupid to email me, but it bothers some.)
Reverse 911 and SMS both require the cell network be functional. Receiving an FM signal does not. In addition, and FM signal can be sent from a single mobile transmitter, that can be picked up for a hundred miles or more, with no signal degradation based on how many people are listening, where cell networks have a finite (and comparatively small) maximum bandwidth available.
In the event of a natural disaster, FM is a far more reliable than any possible signal sent through the cell network. This is the entire premise of ham radio.
It does, but not because they're checking tickets. Stadiums have much better flow for foot traffic, enforced by fire marshals who think they are God (and are correct). They have to check the ticket anyway, it's a small matter to check an ID at the same time. You do need people walking the line reminding everyone of that, and pre-checking that everyone has both. I've seen that done at concerts - and at airports with boarding passes and passports.
The biggest obstacles is that the people who would have to implement won't. They have too much invested in the current system of scalping.
I'm so glad I despise pretty much all popular entertainment.
And when that seat has already sold in the meantime? As well as the next 20 seats down the row? And one of the two people is a minor, say, a 10 year old?
Indeed. Windows 10 is already literally unusable for any serious purpose, unless you have a WSUS server of your own and a domain controller to enforce its use. It's like Microsoft is suffering from extreme depression, and is committing suicide.

Take your time. We'll wait.

What I replied to was about UPS losing the package. Try to pay attention.
What I replied to was about the carrier losing the package. Which is clearly beyond Amazon's control. Try to pay attention.
In these cases, you should be entitled to some sort of credit.
Yeah, but from the carrier, not Amazon (who can't control it). Unfortunately, you're not the carrier's customer.
Good luck with that.
Yeah, but Doctor Who is still full price.

It's best to leave grown up things to grown up.

And we'll see it soon, is to have a separate password that resets the phone to a factory configuration.
Or, even better yet, multi-user phones. Keep one user account vanilla clean, and let them have fun.
I predict we will see one or the other this year.
As is the lengthy prison term you'll be serving for obstruction of justice, one count for each person delayed by the damaged equipment.
Since they don't have the password, you have to trust them a lot less.

The issue isn't that each thinks the other is responsible, it's that each thinks they, themselves, are not.
IT people have to be the ones to implement. Executives have to pay for it. Proper security cannot be done without both buying in fully.
To frame the issue any other way is to fail.
If someone needs their sound turned on, maybe they shouldn't be surfing Facebook at work.
There's on setting that can solve it completely. It's in your hosts file:
127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com
Anybody who surfs the web with their sound turned on is an idiot anyway, though.
In my professional opinion, that would not qualify as a good backup.

Only selling tickets just before the show as resulted in stampedes, and riots, with dozens of deaths at a time.
Your solution is inferior.
(Requiring each ticket to be registered to a specific name, and requiring ID to get in, is another matter.)
And when that seat has already sold in the meantime? As well as the next 20 seats down the row? And one of the two people is a minor, say, a 10 year old?
You want to pony up the half million bucks it would require to replace our existing network, I'd be happy to. Otherwise, who cares what won't work?

I wish them all the best on that.
