It's a train page. If people want to get from A to B and the train is the best option they're still going to buy a ticket. Who the hell cares about likes and dislikes on some stupid FB page. Talk about a useless endeavor.
Which goes to show how easy it can sometimes be to pass a course and not truly understand its content. The reality is that 'back in the day' your average business bro wouldn't be able to pass a CS degree. That doesn't seem to be the case and I'm at least of the opinion that business bros haven't gotten an smarter. So that means...
What the summary at least fails to mention is that Spain is in the wrong time zone. After the Spanish Revolution they adopted the same timezone as Eastern Europe. They are an hour later than France, England, etc. This is important because the people decided they weren't going to change the time they eat, so they eat an hour later and added an hour of lunch break. And low and behold, on average they say Spanish get 53m less sleep a night.
I'm currently in Cartagena doing some work at Navantia. The entire ship yard works 7-3 with virtually no lunch break at all. Which is just especially all sorts of awesome when you get back to the hotel, shower, go out to get something to eat and any non tapa restaurante is closed for siesta until about 8pm.
If a show doesn't bring in new subscribers it's not worth spending money on. Netflix understands that the initial buzz will bring in new subscribers. They also know that the turnover rate of subscribers leaving when a show is axed is fairly low. Production costs almost always rise each season due to inflation, talent demands, expectation to one up the previous season, yet new subscription rates decline with each season.
Try it in any sort of collaborative job. I'm not saying it can't or doesn't work across the board. But blanket statements like this article tries to make are ridiculous.
Oh, and to add, as this site still doesn't allow editing...
NYC I believe is based on employer. At least I believe it's actually a fairly decent reason for players not to go to the Yanks and Mets as regardless where they live they pay a crazy NYC tax. Even if they don't live in NYC.
I live in Mass, work in CT. I have to pay state taxes to both jurisdictions. Now I do get to deduct what I pay to CT from the MA, and I admittedly didn't read the article. But is it based on business or employee residence?
It still shows that demand is pretty weak for them. The problem with Hong Kong, and any of these super densely populated area is nobody has their own garage and home charging. It's up to the complex to provide them. Presumably most owners who would have a car have a designated space so putting them in is likely problematic without rethinking the parking layout, not to mention expensive.
I was going through US customs in Dublin and inadvertently got in the line for pre cleared, the signage was rather confusing as to where to go, who don't have to go through the scanners at all. She looked at my passport, looked at some sort of list that they must have for expected people for the day, pretended to see my name on it and just let me pass.
The fact that this is somehow a story that made it to Slashdot goes to show how clueless its readers must be to the workings of the real world. This is nothing unusual. In fact its pretty common practice. Entering into talks is a contract of sorts where both agree to the terms. And those terms seldom weigh in favor of the person who needs to be bought, and make no mistake, Whole Foods was in desperate need of being bought.
I know plenty of gainfully employed people who make the decision of when to retire or how long to stay out of the work force before coming back as contractors based on how it will affect next years taxes. In this case its considered smart planning. Yet a person who doesn't work more hours because they'll lose their section 8 housing isn't smart planning? In the end whatever gets you the most for least amount of work seems the best practice. Not even getting into morality.
That doesn't work any more thanks to entitlements. The reality is that making twice of minimum wage isn't worth it. All it does is reduce your government assistance. Be it child care, rent reduction, food stamps, college assistance, etc. I'm not saying these things are bad, just that things aren't as simple as make a little more, lead a better life.
It's not like we don't know where they are going. A couple floating recycling plants in the right places in ocean currents and you clean it up. Don't get me wrong, we should be recycling them prior, but as world problems go this one isn't all that high for me.
Because most IT jobs are the equivalent of flipping burgers. They hired this guy because he took 1 class at a community college and was qualified for what they need as opposed to holding out for someone with a 4 year degree that would have wanted more. Most IT jobs by numbers are a joke that can be done with 6 months of training. I'm not saying all, but the bottom of the IT pyramid is very wide and full of mouth breathers.
Politics seems to just be a generic buzz word for anything non technical being used to deciding something. In this case it probably means tax credits, or perhaps just keeping NASA happy in keeping jobs in that area in a hope they can influence ULAs decision. Somehow locating yourself in the same area as a potential client is considered politics.

Of what used to be a halfway decent excuse of a tech website.

Maybe its more that you'r definition of rich has become too strict. 250k puts you into a $1M house easier than a $250kat $100k.
There's no shortage of super rich in Hong Kong however.

12" thick concrete. That's an incredible 2" thicker than most basements.

I blame Columbine.

You know, like numchuku skills, bow hunting skills, computer hacking skills... Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills!
It's for salmon. They'll all be dead in a week or so anyway.

Exactly was is this meeting that it warrants being called 'the meeting'. Sounds like a boondoggle anyway.

If you care that much buy a dedicated asic to do it.
