So, my career potential should be limited because people of my gender weren't sufficiently interested in high-paying jobs?
Maybe I "innocently" think a black person wouldn't be interested in college. How terrible does it have to "innocently" be before it's wrong?
I understand the algorithm, but it's irrelevant who is doing the discrimination so long as someone is being hurt by it. We're increasingly allowing computers to do our thinking for us, and we need to make sure they don't exhibit the same bigotry we're all subject to.
Switching technologies could also help. Java is a pain in the arse. Scala is in high demand, based on the JVM (compiles to java) but far more enjoyable to program in. Python and Spark are also great if she's interested in machine learning or statistics.
Also, put a project on github. After being out for 3 years people will want to see that she's kept up with industry changes and a github account makes it really easy.
Haole is a terrible thing to call someone. I've had bottles thrown at my head for walking in the wrong areas while white. I was 14.
I wasn't allowed to enter Hula competitions because I'm white. I can't apply or attend one of our most prestigious schools because I'm white. I've been on the receiving end of so much harassment because I'm a haole, yet this word is not derogatory? I don't think you've lived in HI long. Did you grow up here?
Hawaii was its own country for several decades before voting to join the US.
There was no occupation.
There was no forceful annexation.
As for Christianity, it was Queen Ka'ahumanu who risked her life to end the Hawaiian religion. She committed a crime which would have meant her death, but her son and King instead instructed the priests to smash the idols. Did she do this because she was so weak willed and easily manipulated by the oh-so-powerful catholic priests? This is a woman who tied men who displeased her to her chariot and whipped them until they pulled her to her destination. Prior to her change of heart she enjoyed terrorizing the missionaries. This was not a stupid or weak-willed woman. She risked her life because she believed it was in the best interest of her people. She stood against tyranny and won. Who are we to second guess her?
What she fought against was polygamy, rigid gender segregation, capital punishment for minor crimes such as having a royal person's shadow falling on them, and some women being so "important" they were never allowed to leave their huts. Discarding her experience in favor of some knee-jerk BS is disrespectful.
Really? And what exactly did the US do? We marched troops down town to prevent a riot. The previous time the US had done so was to break up the riot and stop the bloodshed when Queen Lilioukalani's brother won the election against a beloved Queen with massive voter fraud - bribery, violence and intimidation.
Queen Lilioukalani was deposed because she lost all support. She wanted to restore the monarchy - but unfortunately Hawaii had a parliament and they were not behind the idea. Only full-blooded Hawaiians would be able to vote, and then only for a small part of the government. Her council tried to convince her to abandon the proposal and the last straw came when she threatened to kill them if they did not support her.
The day after the coup there were only three people missing from the government - the Queen and two of her councilers. The rest of the government continued to govern.
Queen Lilioukalani was a bad Queen. She legalized opium and in a very public fashion took a large personal bribe to do so. She wrecked the economy with several bad choices, and she was plagued by corruption scandals, many involving a German fortune teller. She also had little right to the throne. Hawaii had been ruled by the Kamehameha family from inception until the last of the line died and there was an election between his Queen and King Kalakaua. When King Kalakaua died there should have been another election. It was telling that when people were talking about restoring the monarchy, they were not talking about restoring Lilioukalani to the throne.
TL;DR - the "overthrow" was one part of the government against the other, and was pretty much just.
Military spending, but that's not really aid. Large projects like H3 were funded to support the military and any benefit to HI residents was a side effect.
Most Hawaiians are in California and are doing just fine. Seriously. There are more Hawaiians in CA than in HI. There is a tremendous amount of discrimination in favor of Hawaiians, and OHA and Kamehmeha are incredibly wealthy groups. These are crocodile tears.
They're also not native - they were not the first people to reach Hawaii, those were the so-called menehunes who were enslaved and killed. "Native" Hawaiians were also not living in Hawaii long enough to be considered native.
The very last jobs to be automated will be those requiring human interaction. This is what 95% of what a teacher's job is. People who make this prediction are woefully out of touch and think of teachers as mere babysitters. Schools are where kids learn to interact with other people, and in essence, what it means to be human.
What exactly is the minimum-wage tech going to do when a child refuses to do their work? What will they do wen a child starts crying because other children are bullying them? When one kid throws a chair at another? How are they going to negotiate lesson plans and author legally binging agreements such as IEPs?
You couldn't buy a computer (and still can't) without Windows. You couldn't uninstall IE. Windows was actively preventing users from using competitor's products, and it was costly and time consuming to do so.
Google is in trouble for not sufficiently advertising competing products. There's no barrier for entry to use bing instead of Google, or amazon instead of google shopping.
It's very easy to go to a different search engine. We all know who they are, there's no discovery cost. There's no physical cost, and it's not time consuming. There's no captive audience. It's not possible to force users to use google for search.
What Google is being criticized for here is linking to Google maps, shopping and other search products without also providing links to competitors. wtf? If I want to read Yelp, I'll go to yelp.com
...but that's the problem. She has nothing to say. BBs know nothing about the product, the industry, sales, or any skills of use other than smiling. Why hire models if you can hire good looking people who can actually connect with and provide information to the potential buyer? Sales, customer service, tech writers, marketing, anything...
Booth babes have never produced good leads. They're there because as perks for the organizers, not for any actual business purpose.
It's very limiting marketing. You're only going to get contacts that 1) don't actually want to learn anything about the product, and 2) are junior enough they're okay with being seen in an compromising manner. Every company employs women. If not as developers, then as QA, design, sales, marketing, etc, and every manager needs to be able to maintain their respect to be successful.
When you marry, your happiness becomes inevitably tied to another's. Your lives are intertwined. It's sheer stupidity to not protect their mental health.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. There was no mention of his wife having a problem with his gaming, or doing his "chores", or her constant nagging. That's an awful lot to read in.
Yes, but, you can run R and Python over data in pretty much any backend (Teradata, Hadoop, etc.). That's usually the second conversation - how you want to accomplish your goals.
SAS is used because it is much more approachable, whereas both R and Python require a different skill set to use. For R you require both programming and statistical backgrounds, whereas Python has some great packages but requires even more programming chops. If you're willing to hire the new skill set, I would recommend R. It is industry standard, easily extendable (just download a new package), and powerful.
If you want to enable your business group to access data directly, look into setting up Tableau. Don't forget that you can get all of these to work on Hadoop if you require a big data solution.

Really? And how did you enjoy "Kill a haole" day?

I think you're confusing them with Yelp.
..or EU's financial problems.

They're at 65% market share, with Bing at 20% and Yahoo not far behind. That's not a monopoly.

Yep. I don't understand it either.

The majority of video game players are adult *women* these days. Fixed. ..and yes, it's true.

That's good advice. It's a matter of perception. You often don't see the work your partner does, but are well familiar with everything you've done.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. There was no mention of his wife having a problem with his gaming, or doing his "chores", or her constant nagging. That's an awful lot to read in.
