Advocating unions or government regulation makes you sounds like a socialist. Until you enter the world of monopoles and unfair trade practices, the market will take care of itself and should be left alone.
The wall street meltdown was just over a fucking year ago. Exactly how short is your memory, or do you just like to screw yourself by advancing republican talking points?
-I need to install X,Y or Z application, library, whatever.: No, you don't. Refer to the list of approved software and use that, if some new software is needed then follow the procedure to get it included into the list. The procedure to get hold of new software is too long? Fix the procedure, you installing random stuff from the net is not the fix.
You want the app to be finished in 6 months or a year? Yeah, I thought so.
- I need a program that requires elevated privileges!: use a different program, the one you are using now does not care about the safety of your IT infrastructure, if this is not possible pick the damn phone and ask the software provider to fix the program, if they don't fix it expose them t public ridicule. Again, you don't need privileged access.
Yeah, adobe will issue me an emergency patch because I asked nicely. Where do you work, anyway? All your points read like "I'm right. When I'm wrong, restate the problem so I'm right."
If you're using shifts instead of multiplies in this day and age you're an idiot. The compiler will be confused and unable to optimize around it and it's nonportable.
IMHO, getting rid of coffee or cutting back on paper cups (really) smacks of desperation or insane cheapness. Really good reason for the skilled people to run away.
We're running into a problem with this: some devs want to install a VM to play with, but the only images allowed are the standard no-admin machines. Try explaining to helldesk that the image you just installed isn't on actual hardware and therefore can get admin rights.
And most devs don't want admin on a prod server - too many things could explode with bad results. Sudo is ok if the list of allowed users is small (I've seen this work well at amazon), but that's just for mangling the apps themselves.
That she was convicted of being a loud obnoxious american, then evidence is a joke, the guy who most likely did it fled the country, and she confessed after about 5 days of interrogation without counsel. Seriously, have you even looked at the evidence?
Judgement by "normal" people is something that was feared a lot in writing the Italian Consitution, because we had seen how it worked with fascism. The principle that people support is enough to justify everything is the essence of fascism and one of the scary mantras of Mr. Berlusconi.
Yeah, that's working out so well for amanda knox, isn't it?
So what you're saying here is that administration of Windows machines is easier and better automated than Unix machines? Interesting.
Admining a bunch of boxes with proper automation is generally easier than a bunch of boxes without. Pleae don't turn this into a unix vs windows flamefest.
How about "I work for IT, why the hell should I sever myself from the rest of the company with a uniform?" It's not like HR or the developers at my place wear uniforms.
That makes the extraordinary rendition crap a democrat thing, right? Who's closing/scaling way back on gitmo and focusing the war on where al queda actually is? That's right, the secret mooslem from kenya.
Google seems to be allowing the networks to have control over the droid, etc. - this doesn't really make me feel good about those phones, as it's the networks that tend to make phones suck. Personally, I'd like to see carrier-locked phones banned, along with ETFs.

I guess you've never been in an abusive relationship.
Counseling from the trauma of having the bomb squad called over your science project?
Of course, these guys are in russia, so good luck with that.
You can have my root password as soon as you find someone stupid enough to take it.

A giant greenhouse, designed to heat massive ammounts of air, and dump it into the cold upper atmosphere...
So we have given up and are going to proactively warm the earth's atmosphere directly now?
It's not like we're adding any new heat, just channeling it.

Not that Linux error messages are any more descriptive ("Printer on fire?", anyone?), but at least I know what they mean.
How is that not descriptive? If you want weird errors, look around for 'not a bicycle' type errors. High speed impact printers can, and do, catch fire

Anonymity is quite possibly the only security.
Absolutely - the only absolute defense is not to be a target in the first place.

Balance that sucker properly and add proper support and 30 lbs is easy, especially if you don't also have 50 lbs extra in your belly.
I'm sure they also drive off cliffs because the GPS said so. Learn a little bit about navigation before you end up a statistic.
How about "I work for IT, why the hell should I sever myself from the rest of the company with a uniform?" It's not like HR or the developers at my place wear uniforms.
And the people who didn't leave are the ones who don't think they can.
why not expense the repair bills? I would.
it has BT, but you can only use it for headsets - sync plain doesn't work
You're just never wrong, are you?
