  1. Re:United States GS equivalents? on After Iceland and Germany, Now France Declares War on the Gender Wage Gap (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 0

    I am not an advocate of what I wrote; I was just tossing out the possibility of a way to shed light on salary. I understand the impact such a system could have on a capitalistic economy. We are discussing fairness in wages so everything should be debatable.

  2. United States GS equivalents? on After Iceland and Germany, Now France Declares War on the Gender Wage Gap (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 0

    The US could do this too by demanding a company categorize/list salaries by federal GS (General Schedule) equivalents. For instance, a computer scientist with n years of experience would equate to a GS 12 with a defined pay-grade. Gender would not figure in. Granted, categories would need to be expanded for some jobs or salary amount extrapolated for certain cases.

    You could have replaced AT&T with your cantaloupe grower of choice and the intent of the submission would be the same.

    I have a older battery powered Casio G-Shock watch that is at least 10 years old and I have yet to replace the battery. I refuse to replace the watch until the battery dies and I keep waiting.......

  8. Books: Black Widow and House of Spies by Daniel Silva Film: John Wick Chapter 2 TV: haha, none

  9. This is the question to be answered and will go a long way towards anecdotally showing intent.

  10. Personally I could but not everyone is willing or able to watch a youtube video, acquire specialty tools then make the repair. Thanks for your suggestion though.

  11. iPhone 6s release date, September 25, 2015. Barely two years old. I would prefer to swap the battery myself rather than purchase a newer model,

    PuTTY only provides half of a SSH solution, still need a server. Hopefully the Microsoft OpenSSH server will accept clients other than their's.

    Agreed. Back in the day (Byte, Dr Dobbs, etc.) Linux Journal had its place.

  22. Re:A problem that has no easy solution on Prepare for the New Paywall Era (theatlantic.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Evolve that's how. I fail to see how this problem is different than how the printing press put the screws to other means of information dissemination back in the day. Whoever figures out the way ahead will win. I doubt holding your information hostage from readers will be the answer.
