  1. Re: Last sentence in the policy. on FreeBSD's New Code of Conduct (freebsd.org) · · Score: 1

    Yet is practiced otherwise with the "more equal" groups that defy their own definition.

  2. Dangerous precedent on Twitch To Ban Users For 'Hate' on Other Platforms (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    They want to invite a bit of Orwell by going beyond platform conduct.

  3. Owning your car means you don't have to worry about user ratings to have (or offer) a ride.

  4. Re: Not sure about the rest of the world on What Are Today's Most Difficult IT Hires? (cio.com) · · Score: 1

    Even long-term jobless citizens with some IT exposure?

  5. Entry level on What Are Today's Most Difficult IT Hires? (cio.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    At the best, you get offloaded to a benefit dodging staffing agency, at worst get nothing due to not being the perfect person.

  6. They're about Shark Cards. on GTA Online Is Full Of Abandoned Modes (kotaku.com) · · Score: 1

    They don't care too much about abandoned modes as much as they do their in-game currency.

  7. Getting stuck at DFW isn't a bad thing. It's like a shopping mall with parking for airplanes.

  8. Another artist in decline. on Jack White Bans Cellphones At Concerts For '100% Human Experience' (nme.com) · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Sounds like he has a problem with the quality of his music.

  9. Retraining falsely assumes that the displaced or jobless are at sole fault. Employers still have a entitlement mentality that keeps too many out of work, especially the long-term jobless.

  10. Pichai drank the flavoraid. on Google CEO Sundar Pichai Says He Does Not Regret Firing James Damore (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    If he were to show any remorse, they would attack him.

  11. Altheide: Given multiple chances and still had more room to go after being told. Damore: Terminated on the first memo.

  12. Then take the network infrastructure. on Uber Used Another Secret Software To Evade Police, Report Says (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    Kind of hard to do business when your company has no infrastructure capable of doing it.

  13. Safer to assume wrongdoing on their part on Uber Used Another Secret Software To Evade Police, Report Says (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    At the rate the company is going, they're asking to be put under the equivalent of a consent decree.

  14. Yet it still has USB bandwidth issues. on Eben Upton Explains Why Raspberry Pi Isn't Vulnerable To Spectre Or Meltdown (raspberrypi.org) · · Score: 1

    Granted, it might not be affected by the two cpu bugs, but they've yet to fix the bandwidth starved bus.

  15. Hard to make money with uncertainty on Ars Technica Puts Twitter, Uber On '2018 Deathwatch' (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Twitter. "Still a money-losing concern. In 2016, it lost a mere $456.9 million, and its losses have continued in 2017 (though at a slightly less hemorrhagic pace). Still, on paper, the company is burning through the equivalent of a third of its cash on hand per year. And profitability (or an acquisition) is nowhere in sight..."

    Kind of hard to make money when you're constantly changing the service to meet Silicon Valley whims.

  16. 1 truth, many different narratives. on Obama Warns Against Irresponsible Social Media Use (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    One of the dangers of the internet is that people can have entirely different realities

    There's only only one truth. Obama's just not liking the idea of competing narratives.

  17. The universal accusation: "troll" on Ask Slashdot: Thoughts On Star Wars: The Last Jedi One Week Later? [Spoilers] (independent.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    non-Disney sources are saying the backlash has been primarily online "trolling."

  18. Not sure that's what they intended by that... on Google News Will Purge Sites Masking Their Country of Origin (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    the search giant added language stipulating that publications not "engage in coordinated activity to mislead users."

    That would get rid of most mainstream media, no?

  19. Then make it easy to manipulate it on Why Linux HDCP Isn't the End of the World (collabora.com) · · Score: 1

    If they think it's easy to manipulate it, make it very easy to disable or subvert.

  20. Build around it. on 'Cards Against Humanity' Gives Out $1000 Checks (nbcchicago.com) · · Score: 1

    Just as there are signs in Arizona effectively declaring miles of land to be "at your own risk", one could easily get around the parcel by building around the land. No different than building around a mountain or river.

  21. They wanted to be generous... on 'Cards Against Humanity' Gives Out $1000 Checks (nbcchicago.com) · · Score: 1

    Redistribution

    It'd be far easier to spend that money on an increased payout (such as $10k for the same 100 people) by forgoing the land expenses.

    "we purchased a plot of vacant land on the border and retained a law firm specializing in eminent domain to make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for Trump to build his wall."

    Then the wall would end up being built around that plot, becoming prohibitively expensive to use.

  22. RT Part Deux, with deliberate blocking of Linux? on Microsoft Debuts Windows 10 on ARM; Asus and HP Unveil Laptops With 20-Hour Battery Life, Gigabit LTE (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    The first round of crippled devices didn't exactly go well, why should this be any better?

  23. Considering degrees go to women more... on To Solve the Diversity Drought in Software Engineering, Look to Community Colleges (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    The problem is not getting enough men to go to college and graduate with these kinds of degrees.

  24. Wrong assumption that displaced are faulty on 375 Million Jobs May Be Automated By 2030, Study Suggests (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    They made the mistake of assuming that the displaced are at fault and that nobody else is.

  25. Still considered second tier. on 'The Death of the MBA' (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    Until the trades fix the problems of being considered "highly skilled unskilled" as well as its unfriendliness towards latecomers, it's still going to be a non-starter for many.
