I disagree completely. The 'image of the business' is a complex representation of the general zeitgeist and visibility of issues determined by vocal minorities and the media, which have been proven to be wrong in the eyes of history for as long as we've been writing it down. I would personally admire a business that took a stand against this sort of intimidation and said 'we believe in the tenants of freedom of speech, religion, and association and thus will not seek retribution against our employees for things done legally and off the clock, even for things this organization does not agree with'
You are simultaneously underestimating what it takes to be a programmer and overestimating what university provides. Dreaming up the next great programming language will most likely be done by people with PHD's who have spent decades immersing themselves in language design. Meanwhile thousands of developers will be designing complicated tools for myriads of tasks every day benefiting immensely from a well rounded education. Elements of mathematics, psychology, geography, and philosophy will likely all play a role in any modestly complicated piece of software. You can't do that if you're trained 'for a task'.
What is a code monkey job anymore? It seems like nearly all of what was once cookie cutter gui driven development has been subsumed by business suites or relegated to complex legacy software that requires years of business knowledge to maintain. Even making a fart app for a mobile device is more complicated than most people would appreciate.
Is the salary/salary range on the job posting? I find it hard to believe you don't get enough qualified applicants with a decent salary range, we've never had a shortage of qualified applicants in Austin, TX or Oklahoma City, OK.
The obvious takeaway from your comment is that you accept rap culture with all it's flaws. That is generally open minded and accommodating. You do segue into 'all art that connects has merit' bit that toe me is both preachy and dangerous. Jenny McCarthy might create a beautiful screenplay someday, but I'll be damned if I'll judge that without the context of an anti vaccine message.
Only if you think the current administration would see it in their best interest to pursue that litigation. Given Trump's similarly cavalier attitude towards national security I can't imagine that would be advised.
So you patronize artists who are overly sexist and promote violent ideals, and further lecture folks who make a similar judgement of the broad narrative of rap but also harbor commonplace racism. Neat.
Please. Prosecutorial discretion is not a vindication, particularly when the accused's spouse caught in a clandestine meeting with the chief prosecutor, who would be in quite a pickle if she'd been on the wrong side of that decision when Hillary came to power. This is in addition to deleting thousands of emails while under investigation and emailing classified information to an unauthorized organization (who conveniently all got immunity...and don't give me this marked classified bullshit, everyone knows that's not how it works.)
This leniency for willful defiance of the law for personal gain (or protection from loss), will allow our current corrupt POTUS to push the boundaries even further.
He said more than 'I can deny it'.
from the meet the press transcript:
Yeah, I was just going to say, if the F.B.I., for instance, had a FISA court order of some sort for a surveillance, would that be information you would know or not know?
JAMES CLAPPER:
Yes.
CHUCK TODD:
You would be told this?
JAMES CLAPPER:
I would know that.
CHUCK TODD:
If there was a FISA court order--
JAMES CLAPPER:
Yes.
CHUCK TODD:
--on something like this.
JAMES CLAPPER:
Something like this, absolutely.
CHUCK TODD:
And at this point, you can't confirm or deny whether that exists?
JAMES CLAPPER:
I can deny it.
CHUCK TODD:
There is no FISA court order?
JAMES CLAPPER:
Not-- not to know my knowledge.
CHUCK TODD:
Of anything at Trump Tower?
JAMES CLAPPER:
No.
CHUCK TODD:
Well, that's an important revelation at this point. Let me ask you this. Does intelligence exist that can definitively answer the following question, whether there were improper contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian officials?
JAMES CLAPPER:
We did not include any evidence in our report, and I say, "our," that's N.S.A., F.B.I. and C.I.A., with my office, the Director of National Intelligence, that had anything, that had any reflection of collusion between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians. There was no evidence of that included in our report.
CHUCK TODD:
I understand that. But does it exist?
JAMES CLAPPER:
Not to my knowledge.
link to meet the press Listen to the audio, it's clear that he's not trying to use weasel words (not to say he's not lying, he clearly has no problems with that).
I I watched that whole tucker/hines debacle. you're right, about halfway through Hines gives a very lackluster defense of his committee's oversight, 'we get regular reports of overreaches' or something to that effect. I wish Tucker had pressed him more on how he could improve that oversight.
I'm not sure about that. Unexplained failures that embarrass a temperamental autocrat can sometimes effect competent scientists being replaced (sadly, violently) with less competent ones.
The 'B' of course stands for Bigly, which is how important hiring mediocre laborers at the expense of local talent is to the Bigger picture. Could we also get something on the books for exotic dancers? I could then get behind our push to BUS in more talent.
It's only provocative because you don't understand it. It was coined for an anti-litter campaign for Christ's sake.
Keep projecting that the entire country thinks just like you, that strategy is clearly a winner.
Unless there's a long interview process, it's important to try and find out as much about an individual as fast as possible. Thus, within a small battery of questions one needs to find out: how do they think about problems, how do they handle pressure, what do they do when they don't know the answer. I know it sucks to be in such an interview, but I can see the merits of it. I think we as programmers often take it personally when we don't know all the answers.
I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars They criticized me for it, yet they all yell "holla" If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be Lyrically Talib Kweli Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense But I did 5 mil - I ain't been rhyming like Common since

I can't hold the media accountable for proving Iraq did not possess a significant WMD program. Considering how extensively Saddam had lied about his WMD programs throughout the 90's, who would want to go on the record and state that someone as ruthless and dangerous as Saddam had completely dismantled his programs and be left holding the bag when something awful happened. How could one reliably prove such a thing, especially in an environment like Iraq then?
Though that's true, it's a shame how the narrative of a movement can be shaped in minutes by a concerted effort of just a few folks. I read the Wikipedia entry on the alt-right a while back when it was becoming a more mainstream term. Literally every reference was from after 2016, and showed every sign of being written by folks with no sympathy for any part of the movement. Though I was not part of the alt-right movement, I was part of another movement that was similarly stifled when outside forces were brought to bear, and I'm concerned that folks will to easily be swayed from getting behind a movement when bad apples (real or false-flag) can so easily spoil the batch.
I wonder what we should call this new red scare against 'Nazi/fascist'. Orange scare perhaps? No, it's not right to punch a Nazi you vigilante maniac. What happened to freedom of speech?

Agreed, and tobacco tax has the same effect as well. there are plenty of studies out there, but here's one: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/previ...

Do you really think he'd have more influence by _not_ being on the cabinet? Sometimes you have to play the hand you're dealt.
