There is even an device that take the indents of the card and with carbon paper creates a receipt with the card number on it.
Do you mean *is*, or *was*? I used to work in a restaurant when I was a teen and I've used those things with a sliding roller but I don't think I've even seen one in 20 years.
If a programmer can't provide code they've written on their own, I would tend to doubt their skills
So you wouldn't hire a Cobol programmer if he didn't have his own mainframe is his garage? Would you hire an aircraft mechanic who didn't have a personal 747 to tinker with?
I think you have to be crazy to accept such a term as it prevents re-use and is counter-productive to the entity I am contracting to. I point out to them that agreeing to that term prevents me from deploying code I have already written because it provides them a claim over previous works on MY intellectual property that already exist and I deploy.
No it doesn't. If I do work in 2018 for Foo Inc under license X that has precisely zero bearing on stuff I did in 1999 for Barcorp under license Y. How the fuck could it?
That's if the company lasts that long. We all hate salescritters, but they can always serve as a bad example. Iimagine that they're all busy sabotaging each other because they've realised it's easier to bugger up an order for someone else than it is to obtain one for themselves. Now imagine that they're all really good at that, and they all succeed completely...
If it's not the tragedy of the commons it's something very similar.
Another one! Why didn't he put his energy into inventing a new programming language. There's a desperate shortage of those, especially ones that look vaguely like C/C++ with the racism & misogyny taken out.
I'm sure the marketroids and fanboys are already thinking of ways to convince gullible fools that its absence is somehow an improvement. Warmer transients or something.

Really? What's a profit share scheme, then?
Indeed. Most of them know how to use an apostrophe.
Even Einstein didn't know about that.
Brewers, cheese makers, ham curers, cloth dyers and brewers might disagree with that.
Right. Definitely not a feature of any other economic system, that last bit.
How about something like this for Android? Then I could remove all the shit that Google put there that I have zero intention of using, ever.

Is your hobby (say, html5 games) relevant to the job you're doing (e.g. stock control) and the job you're applying for (e.g. warehouse automation)?
If it isn't there's not much point showing it.
If it is then it's not much of a hobby.

I've considered running for office on the policy of "Dog owners will either clean it up or eat it".
Who said they were scared?
Apart from you, that is.
The myth of the "poor man's patent" is still alive in 2017? How quaint!
Yeah, that's why they do that.
And so are you, snowflake. Be sure the boss will have a good laugh about it with his golf buddies.
Chris is Spartacus.
Would that be cold tea, without milk or sugar - or tea?
Luxury!
I'd ask how they managed to hire so many incompetents in the first place.
You analysis is elmentary, but I'm oak A with that.
I don't think you've twigged what's going on here.
Based on history, worse computer keyboards.
Why would he try to stick a Latin phrase in if he isn't?
*Golf clap*.

I'm guessing it's to save space.
