You must be naive. Those have been pretty common occurrences for a long time...a few years ago, a notebook of mine that had to sent to repairs "disappeared" without leaving trace...
There will be always thieves in the system.
As others said, I understand packaging all together to save costs, however it also attracted some unwanted attention.
Most users use adblockers in browsers or the iPhone....They now the current models does not work anymore, and have hinted for a while of putting the adverts in the same stream as the video, and not as a separate video...good luck with adblocking then.
Now if something would happen to it...;)
I have already insurance against malware, got a Mac, a GhostBSD and a Linux at home, and at work all my servers are Linux and FreeBSD, thank you.
It has been know for ages Omeprazol fucks up your brain. Now that could explain one thing or two about my ex. I already warned my parents to not abuse it...
I would never hire a "consultant" from companies that put out adverts asking for "juniors"...if they treat they employees like shit, I do not expect so much good service from them. It is also no small wonder that they leave as soon they get enough experience to be of value to someone else.
I had the luck to work for a consulting outfit where my direct manager sent me to all conferences he could (actually several a year), to in his words "broaden my horizons". After all his years, I am the proof he was right.
While sending guys early in his career does not seem beneficial, believe me it is. He helped me achieve a certain place, and in exchange, I also helped the firm secure several businesses in a market abroad.
I attended a few security conferences in the past where some of the talks were on this line...others talks not so much. With a good agenda, a good tech can discern which ones are basically fluff/bullshit.
For instance, they would not caught me dead in websummit, even less by the kind of money they are asking
There are also other conferences where definitively it is not like that.
If you only send non-essential staff, alas, if you have non-essential staff that cannot be 3 days off, or cannot have holidays you are doing something wrong...
Plus nowadays there is something called "the Internet"...in the last vmworld, at the lunch interval I connected myself to the office, and did a 1h emergency intervention.
I know, it boggles the mind...
P.S. Would not cross your mind, the "essential" personnel is the one that deserves it, and needs to upgrade their knowledge to keep on top of things?
Granted, you have conferences *and* conferences.
Some like Web Summit, are just over hyped bullshit.
Others, are pretty interesting.
In the IT field, for instance vmworld, some security and Linux/FreeBSD conferences expose you to a variety of sessions and labs with all the new trends, and booths were you can pretty much talk with much of the hot vendors, with actual technicians and/or experienced old timers from pre-sales to talk with.

How about laws that outlaw trusts, foundations and country shifting schemes as a way to funnel money from the IRS? It would be a good start.

I used to know a lot of hardware programming, finishing writing a Z80/ZX Spectrum emulator as a dissertation.
The concept of using PGP is privacy in your private messages. That concept goes out of the window once google is managing your keys.

Tell the other prisoners he was spamming them...He will be very popular.
Are you a fucking low life spammer too? So it seems...
Gossip is news???? Shit article.
Now if they made decent Macbooks ago, and stopped rubbing as blind in Europe asking for more 600 USD than the equivalente machine in the US...
FUCK YOU, DHS
hot vendors of the moment in the industry, not sexy babes...
True indeed. It depends on the market, the company, and the local culture. Some companies here in Portugal do have a bad rap.

Thanks about reminding me about DebConf...Pity I missed last year, this year location is not that appealing.

Here if I choose to go to a conference paid with my own pocket, it is considered training nonetheless, and I do not use vacation days.
