  1. Is Best Buy still hiring? on Ask Slashdot: Finding a Job After Completing Computer Science Ph.D? · · Score: 1

    Because America is not a country that hires Comp Sci PhD's. In fact it NEVER was.

  2. Re:F-22's don't drop bombs. on US Strikes ISIL Targets In Syria · · Score: 2

    They are air superiority fighters and as such carry air to air missiles or air to ground missiles typically against radar installations. F-22's don't have external hardpoints so there's nowhere to hang bombs from and the internal bays are specifically designed around the missiles they carry.

  3. F-22's don't drop bombs. on US Strikes ISIL Targets In Syria · · Score: 1

    So that's a waste of effort.

  8. The tax is all this was ever about on Airbnb To Start Collecting Hotel Tax On Rentals In San Francisco · · Score: 1

    Cities don't give a ratfuck if your neighbors are pissed off. All they worry about is the tax. 14%? That's a steal compared to some places. That will of course double soon.

  9. NFC has never caught on, never will on Apple Locks iPhone 6/6+ NFC To Apple Pay Only · · Score: 1, Interesting

    NFC has never caught on being freely available. It won't be adopted with even tighter restrictions. Sorry by NFC is a failure that was never articulated honestly or clearly, never implemented widely and so we don't know how or if it will work or what happens when it goes wrong.

  10. Re:Why dilute the brand? on Is the Tesla Model 3 Actually Going To Cost $50,000? · · Score: 1

    They SHOULD compete with supercars. No one, ultimately, is going to be able to compete with Ford or GM if they ever actually decide to make electric cars with the same seriousness they devote to building trucks.

  11. Back when there was a Salomon Brothers on Ask Slashdot: Have You Experienced Fear Driven Development? · · Score: 1

    The application development shop management didn't feel it was a productive use of anyone's time to have to go home and sleep and eat, reproduce and what not. So they brought in cots and all the comforts of home so no one had to bother with that. While they don't do development, Gartner does that too. Hire valets and such to do all the living stuff for you so you don't have take yourself away from work.

  12. Why dilute the brand? on Is the Tesla Model 3 Actually Going To Cost $50,000? · · Score: 1

    Because you never know what endangered life form you might find.

  16. Just tax it more, California on California Declares Carpooling Via Ride-Share Services Illegal · · Score: 1

    Make them all register with the state. For $500 a year. And charge them all a 10% tax on all fares. Solve the problem the way you solve all problems.

  22. Disease "Wells" on Denver Latest City Hit By Viral Respiratory Infection That Targets Kids · · Score: 0

    What you think this sort of thing only happens in Africa and Mongolia? Central America is pretty famous for these things too. Tell you what, let's let every single person from some Central American fever swamp walk here and hang out with your kids. I'm sure when they're dead you can pat yourself on the back about your tolerance.
