I believe a CEO of that stature could come in on an O-1 (nonimmigrant) or EB-1 (immigrant) visa, so your sarcasm is somewhat misplaced. Of course, faking a top-level CEO resume is a wee bit harder than faking an IT resume.
This is the same Hillary Clinton who is having trouble beating the wet paper bag that is Bernie Sanders with the whole of the Democratic establishment behind her? ROTFL. Polls lie, and Hillary is eminently beatable, though perhaps not by Kasich.
Eventually we will not need 95% of people to work. And their work will have zero value to us. I am not ready to simply let them starve. I am not ready to let their children starve and deny their children a chance to be one of the 5% who actually would be useful. I am not ready to embrace your form of fascism.
Then, since you clearly believe you will be in the 5%, you will be doing all the work for yourself and providing for 19 other people who do nothing. Who is the slave in that scenario?
If you use a mule to do a job, you provide it with enough to sustain its life and health. If you use a machine, you keep it powered and in good repair. But if you use a man, it seems, it's perfectly OK to pay him a pittance and expect him to live on it.
Which would be a perfectly good reason to spend enough to keep your slaves in good health. But slavery was abolished; employers don't own their employees. If someone is willing to be a fry cook for $12.25/hour, even if this results in a standard of "basic health and dignity" for them below that which one M. Beauregard finds acceptable, there's nothing wrong with that. If no one is willing, then either the price will have to go up or we won't have any fry cooks. For fry cooks I imagine the price would go up. For Yelp customer service representatives... well, maybe we could do without.
Next up is where smooth says he has a gun to fend off "looters" like you and goes into survival nutter mode. Like we "looters" wouldn't think to firebomb his home in the dead of night and pick him off when/if he exits in time.
No, you wouldn't. Maybe YOU would if you were a person driven to looting out of pure desperation, but you aren't. The people who are wouldn't be that cunning, or they could find a safer way of making a living than homicidal looting.
If the false accusations were _successful_, they'd be considered true accusations, so you'd not hear of them as false accusations
Even if such a fear would not in fact be justified, the current reign of terror vis-a-vis diversity and harassment certainly makes it likely a student would believe such fear was justified.
What criteria do you use to determine merit? Sadly right wing Amerika tends to base criteria on White male protestant norms. Do you have e a different set of criteria or is this just more right wing bs?
Yep, that's Amerika for you. I go into a job interview and they look at me and give me the stink eye and say "Russotto? Sounds like one of those papist names!" And I say "Actually, sir, I'm Jewish", and the next thing I know I'm waking up on the sidewalk.
Oh, wait, no, it's actually not the 1920s any more, and merit has meanings which aren't connected to skin color and race and religion and gender... unless, of course, you happen to be a "diversity advocate".
If the geek can't accept an open and frank discussion of gender issues in tech, then Slashdot has no future.
Don't be ridiculous, a desire for and acceptance of an open and frank discussion of gender issues in tech is a manifestation of the privilege that while males have.
For the sake of marginalized groups, we must instead have carefully controlled discussions of gender issues where the permitted arguments and conclusions are all determined in advance to avoid making anyone feel unwelcome.
It was sad to see that students would rather wait in line to talk to me (a male TA) during office hours than approach the available female TA sitting next to me.
For the male students...you're less likely to file sexual harassment charges against them for talking to you.
The P(Y) code offers a couple of advantages besides anti-spoof
1) Faster code rate for more precise positioning, also offered by the newer civilian signals (L1C, L2C, and L5)
2) It exists on both L1 and L2, allowing the receiver to more accurately model the atmospheric delay terms, reducing that source of error. This is also provided by the L2C and L5 signals, but not all satellites yet transmit them.
Once you realize that the arbitrary rules imposed on many compettive endeavors are placed there by people with certain skills in order to make sure people with those skills succeed (that is, to keep themselves on top), "cheating" becomes only natural.
Furthermore, if you look around and discover that everyone who is winning is cheating, you might consider that the rules aren't meant to be followed; rather, they are intended to weed out the chumps who follow the rules (as well as those who lack the skill to avoid being caught).
1) Unidentified women's pull requests are more likely to be accepted because there's a fatter tail of bad mail programmers
2) Identified outsider women's pull requests are less likely to be accepted than outsider men because identified outsider women are more likely to be SJWs putting forth SJW-style BS requests about variable names offending them.
Naa, most of us have seen so much bullshit of this sort that the first thing we think of when we see an accusation like this is not "Oh, how horrible, some dirty old professor has been sexually abusing his students" but "Oh, another witchhunt". Not the ones made famous by McCarthy, the ones made famous by Cotton Mather. The Salem witches often had numerous accusers as well.
Sure, it's possible in this case they've found a real witch. But I wouldn't bet money on it.
Only to environmentalists. To the rest of us, at best they're illustrations that life can hang on in pretty tough conditions.... but 500MW is more useful than 10 square miles of desert crust any day of the week.
If anybody claims that women never dress in revealing clothes to be sexually attractive, they're denying reality.
Oh yes, but they have certain people in mind who they want to acknowledge that. Or at least a class of people. If you're not in it, they want you forbidden by law and custom from acknowledging it.
Ban them. They're people from the same group behind geekfeminism and the former Ada Initiative. Entryism is their preferred tactic.

They do mandate home ec.

I think we may have found the issue here.
It's not a subpoena. It's a writ of assistance. These... don't have the best history on this continent.
"Anomaly" in this case is a technical term meaning deviation from the reference value.
And everyone warmist and denialist knows this one is due to El Nino, but that won't stop the warmists from crowing over it.

There are no interim appointments to the Supreme Court.
