Objective-C with garbage collection turned on blows away Objective-C with garbage collection turned off on Snow Leopard. I believe it is on the order of 20x faster. Objective-C is a compiled language.
Adding to what you wrote, there are all sorts of intricacies relating to the nature of the business. For example, a strip club catering to heterosexual males may be able to discriminate based on gender when it comes to hiring dancers.
Here's something to remember. Health insurance costs for a company increases as much as 20% year over year. As an employee (and if you aren't in HR or finance) you'll rarely see it; companies tend to keep the costs to employees low. Keeping your employees healthy have several benefits. They take less sick days. They cost the company less to insure.
It is about context but it also is about interpretation. If she decides to interpret it in a sexual harassment sort of way, it's her choice. I suggest a better choice of word. You may win your case or you may lose it; it's better not to provide someone with a case at all.
I'm generally against pizza. It isn't the healthiest thing in the world to eat. I'd rather get people something healthier if possible. But hey, sometimes the team really wants pizza. Nothing you can do at that point.
Addendum: If you are working in publishing and you are dealing with models and your role in the company is related to photography, walking up to an editor and saying, "Nice rack!" is still sexual harassment. Just thought I'd clear that up in case anyone was wondering.
This is a good time to go over sexual harassment laws. A blow job may not be sexual harassment. Your standard sexual harassment training may have taught you that it is and it may be for your particular business. However, the laws on sexual harassment is a little bit more complex than that.
It all has to do with the context of the action and the nature of the business. For example, if you work in a finance company walking up to someone and asking, "Her breasts look wrong. Can you review it?" That's sexual harassment. If you work in publishing and are dealing with models and your role in the company is related to photography walking up and asking an editor "Her breasts look wrong. Can you review it?" is not sexual harassment.
So in review, I can't tell you if a blow job is sexual harassment or not. Chances are that it is. However, it all depends on the context of your business. I mean if you're working in a brothel and there's 30 dudes wanting blow jobs asking a manager to help out by giving someone a blow job so that the dudes waiting for a blow job can be serviced and get on with their way would not be sexual harassment.
If I'm in the shit, I want you in the shit with me. Though, being a manager and staying late with your developers, your first priority shouldn't be riding them but play a support role. What do they need to get the job done? What can you do to remove obstacles from their way? Food? Drinks? Problems come up. What can you as a manager do to resolve that problem?
The question then is whether the information we're looking part of the 80% or is it part of the 20%? What if they just average it out and only give us 80% of every meg of data as an example?
Psst. The word upgrade is not on the box art. It's in the actual text to determine which upgrade license is correct for a situation. Leopard, pay $29. Tiger, pay $169. There is no other option.
The $169 is not a full license as far as I can tell. Based on their text, the $169 is a license upgrade from Tiger. I believe Tiger was the first release of OS X that supported Intel chips. In fact their text for the $169 version begins with "Upgrade your Mac with the latest..." It says upgrade right there. First word. It implies a continuity if nothing else.
I've implied nothing with regards to the TOS. Possession of a license and the installed state of something are completely independent of each other. A user may not have a license of a piece of software and still have it installed. Similarly, the same user may not have something installed but certainly do have a license for that same piece of software. It should be noted that having Tiger or Leopard installed is not a system requirement, but it is a determining factor in which box is the appropriate one for purchase.
But does Windows include drivers for Eye Sight? For example, I distinctively remember that Windows didn't have the correct drivers for Apple laptop's trackpads. It treated the trackpad as a one button mouse when the trackpad could operate as a two button mouse.
Why is tying software to hardware different than tying hardware to software? For example, power savings control software and power savings control circuitry on their laptops.
People keep throwing out "should" all over this discussion. But no one ever explains the reason why things should/should not be a particular way. Very odd.
Because they're tying it to another one of their products which isn't needed to run it.
Define "run it". Take for example, the built in Eye Sight. Their product includes drivers to operate the Eye Sight. Does someone else's software provide drivers for the Eye Sight? If not, you need Apple's software to make their hardware (Eye Sight) work. In other words, Apple's software is needed to make Apple's hardware work.
Yes, but you bought the software. If you reject the software to get a refund, you'll need to send the entire packaging back. That includes the hardware. Oh you wanted to keep the hardware? I'm sorry. We can't process your refund. Have a nice day:)
Yes, you should. Key word there being -use- and there is a difference between use and redistribute.
You mean like where you, at home, can modify OS X to install on a standard non-Apple PC, but if a company makes a derivative work and redistributes it much like how Psystar did? Huh. Imagine that.

That's a leader, not a manager.

There was no specification as to who should be the receiver of the blow job.

What's unhealthy about tomatoes, cheese, and bread?
Cheese.

It's also not possible to sexually harass your boss.
It is possible sexually harass your boss. When you get fired, this is cause for your termination.

A blow job would be nice, thanks.

As they say, "And knowing's half the battle."
Nothing says "I'm cheaping out on the food" than pizza.

Or ship no OS. I mean why bother installing software when your users is going to go out, buy a copy of OS X, and install it on the machine anyway?
People keep throwing out "should" all over this discussion. But no one ever explains the reason why things should/should not be a particular way. Very odd.
Why don't you be the one to challenge it then if you're so sure you'll win?
Because they're tying it to another one of their products which isn't needed to run it.

It's not because of migration tools. The DVD is the same for Tiger and Leopard. The difference is the licensing.

What Apple needs to do is set the price of OS X to be $2k. The OS costs $2k. The hardware is free. Have a blast kids.
