Busy laughing at all the suckers living in New York.
Don't. I live outside the US and get 55.3Mb/s down for a reasonable price. I don't live in a major city and I don't have fiber, only DSL. I could also get pretty much the same speed for pretty much the same money from my cable TV company.
Fix that before it happens. Tell everyone to never use a work email for personal mail. Tell them to get a free webmail account for personal stuff instead.
Don't backstab anyone. Don't read anything without permission. Don't get involved in anyone's infighting. Do your best to help all your customers, even if they are trying to undermine you. Play politics only as much as you have to, people will try to play you. You have to be aware of it and respond tactfully.
Your duty to report serious criminality overrides these rules. Your duty to report gross immorality may override these rules, you have to decide that one based on what you believe in.
The intercepting rockets likely cost far more than the rockets being intercepted. Good job the US is footing the bill. More upstanding action from the country that called Saddam 'Our kind of guy".
You have a point. That money could have gone to feeding the homeless, upgrading some infrastructure, health care, regenerating Detroit, or a countless number of other things. Instead it's going to help a country that's oppressing its own people Saddam style and indirectly going to feed military secrets to the Chinese.
The old design was always strong firewalls between the network and the Internet and nothing else. A lot of companies really believe that a stateful firewall will somehow prevent windows users running god knows what malware on their web connected desktop machines. Plus there are all the laptops and other devices staff plug straight into the core network. Plus VPN connection bridging the firewalls.
Computer security in most companies is a joke. That, apparently, includes defense contractors.
Few people use IaaS because they fear owning servers. Some people really like or need the flexibility. Some people have done the calculations and it does save them money. Some people don't want the hassle of looking after servers and want to concentrate on their core business.
You try and build a reliable and fully redundant data center for less than amazon charges. It's not so easy.
I've been using them for a while now and I've not noticed their search results and any worse than google. Plus they promise not to sell your personal information.
And that's the real harm. A skilled woman or minority (whatever that is) will never be taken seriously as it's assumed they got their position though preferential treatment and not skill or hard work.
Dr King claimed all racism is categorically bad. He was very clear on the point of wanting equality, and not wanting of more discrimination even if that was passed off as affirmative action.
I agree the gender balance in IT is worrying, but don't believe you can't solve discrimination with more discrimination.
One set of fake boobs, a razor, and a wig should do it.
Seriously though this undermines the women in IT who actually worked to get there instead of getting unfair advantages. As far as I know schemes like this have never worked in the past. You just can't solve discrimination with more discrimination.
It's not illegal to be a shameless coward. The massive scale spying on US citizens and foreign allies was what was illegal and what we should be jailing people for.
Sociopathic editors pick and choose rules as they see fit, everyone else gets their edits buried and endless warnings for things they never did wrong. Any information sources the sociopaths don't like they call a 'minority view' or pretend it violates any one of the many contradictory rules. I've not seen actual good faith on Wikipedia for years, only people pulling nasty tricks to enforce their own story whilst pretending good faith was involved.
I'd trust the court system about as much as Wikipedia these days.
If this man can prove in court that these editors are making libelous comments the Wikipedia foundation isn't going to raise a finger to help them. The wikilawyers abuse wikipedia's rules to get their biased viewpoints accepted, but they can't pull that nonsense with the court system.
This could be a good thing for wikipedia. For too long the loudest mouths and the sneakiest abuse of rules has been rewarded and truth has been treated with contempt.

PPP or SLIP can tunnel IP over a serial connection. TCP/IP became the dominant protocol because it could run over anything.
Also - no usage cap or fair usage police nonsense. I could max out the line constantly if I wanted to.

The US is behind on broadband.
If you help people, facilitate, make their work lives easier, you won't be the scum of the office.

If you were not officially told then ignore it.

You really should reserve judgment until you know what his company does. For a lot of companies owning physical servers doesn't make sense.
Nah. Get rid of the kit and use management direction changes as an excuse to buy better kit.
Well there is always reddit.

Then offer the course to anyone who deserves it and forget the racist and sexist nonsense.

Maybe it's just a disaster recovery site with a few hundred secretarial staff located there, the real show could be elsewhere. We just don't know.

I think we should close the comments here. The parent covered all the important points.

So if I buy hardware from China and use an open source OS created worldwide somehow you own that?
If DARPA didn't develop IP someone else would have. Your argument makes no sense.
The United States is the reason that Australia doesn't have an army. It's the reason that Israel has not preemptively attacked its neighbors.
Australia has an Army. I've seen them.
Israel would not be in a position to preemptively attack its neighbors if the UK/US alliance didn't create that country in the first place.
