  4. Re:The problem is the other way round... on The Daily Harassment of Women In the Game Industry · · Score: 1

    I definitely see your point. I do think that maternity/paternity leave should be granted and paid for, however, it should not be shouldered by the individual business, but by the tax payer base as a whole. I also believe in free education and medical care.

    This is not what everyone wants, and çertainly is not the American way. I am a long term capitalist, who believes that those in power do have a social responsibility to not blight their surroundings and the people that work for them. The main problem with being a long term capitalist is that too many people equate capitalism to short term thinking. Why think long term? In the long term we're dead anyway.

    But what legacy are you leaving behind?

    It's the modern executive level talent to confuse and befuddle the poor masses and give the politicritters the ammunition they need to sway the pockets and minds of the ruling class. Well played Microsoft. They will probably get it through.

    It's just the new strategy to right-size, right-shore and right-fit. In laymans terms, fire employees like crazy, and then complain that there are no qualified engineers available as they can't find any (because they can't rehire the ones they fired*) to fill the void, so more H1B visas are critically needed in the IT sector.

    It's just the new strategy employed to increase the speed of scientific research and development. It's called the self-peer-review.

    Say whatever you want about the tech, but this was the one big ticket item that the flash plugin did address. Single publish capacity, and the ability to properly lay out in a responsive manner.

    I came across a very interesting thing. It seems that for several of the large corps that I consult to, their biggest problem with onshore Indian resources (read resources in India) is job hopping. They do it more than the west. I call shenanigans from a shill.

    Personally, I don't see "Facebook" as a "social network" because there is no "network". It is a Social Hub. But whatever.
