A lot of people here seem to have their identity tied up very strongly with the idea that some men they don't know and have never met didn't harass anyone.
Wow. In the last 40 years there has grown a massive academic framework, new vocabulary, new "disciplines", new courses of study, and thousands if not millions of people who make a very good living based on the theory that there is and has always been an oppressive patriarchy that incidentally "hurts men too". And you don't think most or all of those people don't have their identity wrapped up in this belief?
Man, go to any college campus in the U.S. and challenge anyones beliefs on this topic and see what happens to you.
Show me a game that isn't bottlenecked by the GPU. Artificially creating a set up where the cpu becomes the bottleneck is like the OPPOSITE of real world testing. It's a stupid way judge (or buy) a CPU.
The jobs overseas are *already* much cheaper than what the H1B's are getting paid. If it were possible to have these jobs overseas ---they would already be there---, and that is cold hard fact. The jobs going to H1B are jobs that require face-to-face interaction with people here in the United States.
The 'alternate fact' here is the obvious bluff from tech companies (Let us play by our rules or we'll ship jobs overseas). The only response that has any integrity is "Well, take your goddamn ball and GO home then."
Corporations like Rand sold governments and corporations on the idea that you can mathematically model people and their worth. The world has been going downhill ever since. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
If your business model doesn't pay people what they're worth, then you don't have a good enough business model. If your startup idea is compelling, people will work for less in exchange for equity.
Whoever pays the most should get the best workers. I don't understand why you would want it any other way. Isn't that the way it works for management?
How it works is the company is enticed to outsource the work to a contractor because the contractor is actually cheaper --because most of the workers are H1B. http://www.epi.org/blog/new-da...
The key phrase is "willing to work". Obviously if he pays more he'll find more talent. That he goes to India *instead of paying more* is literally proof that he ( or his company ) "cheaps out".
Wrong. they need everyone to pay more so that they can contribute more without giving their competition an advantage. They want to pay more AND they want to maintain a level playing field AND they don't want to be sued by stock holders.
Competition is why. Think about it. If `everyone` has to pay, the playing field is level. This is what Warren Buffet has been explaining tirelessly for decades. So yeah, this question goes in the "answered a long time ago" bucket.
I think it's interesting how documentaries always take time to explain how time and space are inextricably connected and then go on to explain one or the other independently. It's common to speak of gravity as if it's a force but you never hear ( in the documentaries ) anyone say graviton.
No, it's all bullshit. There's a lot of talking and propaganda around these ideas but when you start peeling it apart it's just layers and layers of circular citations and dubious studies by (professional) social "scientists" ( yes, I do think we should go back to calling it social "studies" ). It wouldn't even be a thing except it's repeated often and loudly by entrenched, tenured activists in universities.
Yes, telling people to negotiate is absolutely enough to break this HABIT(yeah, this conditioning idea is a flat out lie). People who have never bartered for anything, and moreover have never even witnessed bartering take place make the adjustment on their first day in a new country. Go ahead explain how this is "different" and somehow not "conditioning".
The real problem is the people with a disproportionately loud voice telling us that we're all brainwashed and incapable of owning our lives and our minds --who then propose to fix it with their own brand of brainwashing that suits their own selfish agenda.
Rigged studies are rigged. I am, and I expect most intelligent people are, perfectly capable of differentiating between pushy and assertive behaviors. Really really really fucking tired of this top-down social engineering that's going on everywhere these days. The lies and propaganda supporting this cultural enforcement is constantly being debunked and yet the SJW's just keep going with it. And the really frustrating part is seeing that the academics and politicians propagating these myths aren't even altruistic themselves --they are just cynically furthering their own careers. This has become the age of the professional SJW.
The fuck you can't. You absolutely can. This conditioning you continually speak of is no more than a bad habit and doesn't even put a dent in the normal humans intellect.
What you say is true. But the poster you replied to is also quite correct --and the truth is more important than any social agenda, no matter how righteous it may be.
wtf did you just characterize this as user error? And then go on to proclaim that you shouldn't install Linux with a USB drive plugged in? As if this broken stupid idiotic default install is somehow a standard that everyone should know about? W.T.F.
Seriously I haven't used sles or opensuse for a few years so I'm only going by these comments, but if this is in fact the default behavior opensuse is cracked.
For some stupid reason all the set top boxes shun smb/cifs/nfs support in favor of nfc or dnla or some other bullshit "works sometimes" completely unfucking necessary *why the fuck did anyone think we need this* abstraction.
Do we even need distributions now that we have systemd? The choice is which desktop interface you use, everything below that layer will practically be the same.

oh wow you're right! thanks man
I don't think that math adds up.

Are you sure? I also did some quick math and came to a different conclusion, that we would probably *save* money.
Adult population of the U.S.(rounded up): 246,000,000
Gross Federal Tax Revenue of the U.S.: 3.3 trillion
Cost of providing all adults 1800/month: 443 billion
THINGS YOU COULD GET RID OF:
food stamps: 74 billion
soc sec ( just pensions ): 52 billion
Unemployment Insurance : 520 billion ( says CNN )
