  1. mindset issue on HP Hit With Age-Discrimination Suit Claiming Old Workers Purged (mercurynews.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    true, but most 40+ would not sit quietly and work 80h/week on a poorly managed project. People with experience seen too much to stand by it. Some companies fix this problem by getting 22y/o and work 3 shifts for same pay. Some get better management.

  2. I want FLASH back! on Facebook Is Testing Autoplaying Video With Sound (thenextweb.com) · · Score: 1

    All this HTML5 is a way to send us more ads that are harder to block. No thanks!

  3. who is responsible for US cyber security? on FBI Finds 14,900 More Documents From Hillary Clinton's Email Server (go.com) · · Score: 1

    Disregard Clinton actions. Why on earth no one from intelligence agency noticed that one of the top officials (secretary of state) is using insecure, not approved email server?

  4. Same with alcohol we go with lowest safest value - so ZERO. If you want to drink or smoke fine - but have designated driver!

  5. why sue only Snapchat?? on Snapchat Sued For Facilitating 107 MPH Car Crash (patch.com) · · Score: 1

    Choose your poison: ...sue car manufacturer for adding speedometer to dashboard (it allows users to create selfies with speed), ...sue car manufacturer for allowing excessive speeds in the car, ...sue phone maker for not displaying warning do not operate while driving (like garmin does), ...school system for producing mindless creatures that can't connect action with cause, ...Darwin for creating a trophy that some are destined to win, ...self - for not reading instructions called "life"

  7. added Weasel to bug list on Weasel Apparently Shuts Down World's Most Powerful Particle Collider (npr.org) · · Score: 2

    done ...added Weasel to my jira instance. Can't decide if it should be considered user error.

  8. perception of security on WordPress.com Enables HTTPS Encryption For All Websites · · Score: 2

    Great all sites that should have been "static" are sent over encrypted channel while WP is still a Swiss cheese.

  9. no need to pay on Twitter To Give All New Parents 20 Weeks of Paid Leave (fortune.com) · · Score: 2

    As a new parent I welcome 20 weeks without tweeter:)

  10. in other news barrel price drops to $20 on The World's Largest Renewable Energy Developer Could Go Broke (huffingtonpost.com) · · Score: 2

    Coincidence that barrel went from $120 to $20? Suddenly renewable energy market is struggling and electric/hybrid car doesn't look that appealing. We live in illusion of the free market.

  11. no age discrimination? - tell it to my old toaster!!!

  12. vote on program items not party! on Ask Slashdot: We've Had Online Voting; Why Not Continuous Voting? (iamnotanumber.org) · · Score: 1

    We have technology to allow us to vote on a list of programs/tasks that group of experts (not politicians) would handle in next 4 years. We would also define constrains like budget, debt, desired long term outcome, when to stop program, etc.

  13. Project wasn't a failure RELEASE was on Healthcare.gov and the Gulf Between Planning and Reality · · Score: 1

    People need to realize that law cannot set a strict date for software releases! Project like this should have been released gradually to small city, smaller state, then state by state. After every release check issues, then fix them. Even Brodway learned to tests their plays in smaller/controlled population.
