But it seems like this summary - and the article itself - would be more useful if it supplied additional information.
I certainly know very little about how cellular towers are managed - until a few minutes ago, I assumed the carriers themselves owned them. Apparently that is wrong...
The problem is that it's not just for general consumers. You try to explain to the CEO of a high security company why you want to ruin his fun and not let him have his new toy.
I don’t think that’s your job - that’s the job of the music major he’s put in charge of online security.
Yeah, it especially sucks given this product that’s just getting into people’s hands in late autumn. And of course their in-house early adopters won’t catch this because they live in Cupertino and think 55F is “chilly”.
I learned the downside of being an early adopter of Apple kit back in 2003, when I bought the brand new FW 800 Aluminum G4 PowerBook. I loved that computer... but didn’t love the fact that Apple had to replace the display three different times due to the “white spot” issue. Apple has always been great for me with regards to service... but I don’t personally want a great warranty that I have to use repeatedly.
So thank you, beta testers for giving Apple your $1200 so the rest of us can have a better product in 2020!
”For Centro, a company in Chicago that makes technology for ad agencies, the problems started this summer. Centro had applied for visas for three young employees who already had the legal right to work for a limited time after graduating from college. One of the applications had been chosen in the H-1B lottery. Emilie Clark, the company’s director of human resources, happily called the employee to tell him his immigration status was settled for the next three years. ”
H1-B is supposed to be used for special cases where there simply aren’t enough Americans available with a particular hard-to-find skill set. There’s just about zero chance that some young recent graduate has such a background. But just for the sake of argument, what were the skills in this case? Again, from TFA:
”... which consisted of writing algorithms and required knowledge of multiple programming languages as well as a solid understanding of relational data storage systems...”
... but I’m not sure what’s going on with the idiots posting further up in this discussion.
In addition to Yellowstone, there’s the plume responsible for the Hawaiian Islands. Interestingly, as the tectonic plate shifts, the plume remains more or less in the same place below it. Currently it’s under the Big Island (obviously); you can see the direction that the plate is moving by looking at the chain of islands.
The other thing is - I suspect it's not so much cooperation as "uniting in the face of a common enemy", where that "enemy" is perceived bureaucratic nonsense.
I honestly think that's the default behavior for most people if you keep the group small enough.
I’ve worked with a lot of different people - “most” is a significant overstatement. Some are sneaky by nature, while a goodly number think the definition of “collaborate” is “I will tell you what to do and you will do it”.
”According to CBS, the show will apparently find the crew of the USS Discovery in "unfamiliar territory," and they'll have to get creative about ways to return home.”
This is the episode where Kes and Neelix join the crew, right?
Interesting. The story states that PGP may be vulnerable, but when I put my (known good) public gpg key into the crypto sense tester it says "Sorry, this doesn't look like a valid or supported key".
So it would seem either the story is incorrect in claiming PGP keys are vulnerable, or else the tester is badly written.
If you really felt you were at fault, you'd give all those millions of dollars back.
But it's quite obvious what's she's saying is "sorry not sorry" - "I was CEO, so of course the buck stopped with me... but I wasn't actually culpable in any way".

'nuff said.
I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it all right.

As I recall, didn’t the Asgard commit mass suicide?

Dear Slashdot, I have 8 Linksys routers from 2006 in my closet, I would like to know how to wire them together to create a smart garage door opener.
P.S. Having it also mine bitcoin in the background would be a plus!

Seriously? The company needed an H1-B for that?
Now we find that it is extremely wasteful of energy as well.
“Now”? As if we didn’t know about this, all along?

Why don't you post the file, so we can draw an informed opinion?
Do the phones crash when the line appears? If not, this name makes absolutely no sense.

1) Robotic vehicles need a horn - and additional logic to handle when to sound it.
2) Robotic vehicles would benefit from the addition of a mechanical arm with a mechanical middle finger - for these sorts of post-accident situations.
That which does not kill you makes you stronger.
And, of course, the cost of putting the phone together is negligible.
