Yeah, on the IP assignment parts it's just my own text verbatim. On the clauses that are added they come from a more fair employment/work-for-hire agreement, I've had several attorneys work on. When I say nobody reads it, I mean I never get back a countersigned copy until I ask for it. But I ask for it, and then I get it--usually by the CEO or other exec level person (working in smaller orgs).
For software engineers, most NDA/NonCompetes I've seen are written to claim they own all IP except for what you exclude in a postage size stamp area at the bottom--completely unfair to the employee. I write in that area: See attached exhibit A for addendum to this contract, where I then explain that when there are clauses that are in confusion, then the addendum takes precedence, and then I list everything I've ever done, regardless of how booring, including anything posted to my blogs, social media, and personal github page; and I add clauses that the company only owns IP specifically pertaining to their existing products, and any new product work that is expressly added by their own addendum. It's about 5 pages of addition, and it basically inverts the burden of proof back to the employer. Nobody ever reads it, and I've always had to insist on getting it counter signed, but it's always counter signed.
You have the control in these scenarios, never accept a boilerplate NDA. Attach 10 pages of addendum, rewrite it, bring your own, whatever. But don't accept the stock one, ever.
The first modern electric car was the EV1, made by GM, and they self-destructed the program because it got more interest than they were expecting. The token gesture of "hey, we can be green, not just petrol" started to backfire, and they went into a spiral of denial and self-delusion. Wonder how well it'll work out for bikes.
Contextual interfaces like the ribbons remind me if VI and its editor/non-editor mode. Although I'm a fan of VI, I know many people really struggle with moded context on UX, and I think this also shows in how difficult it can be to train and use on the ribbon interface. It's just a more complex moded system.
Except you missed something critical - Rey did get the historical teachings, and Yoda burned the tree before Luke could get in and see they were missing. At the very end of the show you see somebody pull open a drawer in the millenium falcon and the books are there.
I don't know about advertising, but LinkedIn requires you to include a year on employment history--another way employers filter by age, since it is universal practice nowdays (at least in tech) to review somebody's linkedin profile as part of screening. It is an easy way to determine somebody's age.
Regulation can be dangerous, but it seems this is a situation where it is called for: when a citizen's liberty is being trampled; and the Equifax breach will trample on people's liberty for decades to come – yet they are offering a pittance of one year's credit monitoring as if this will help for a lifetime of damage. Perhaps the EU's GDPR takes things a bit too far for the USA, but it can be used as a reference point, and we need something in our citizen's rights to their own identity in this modern world.
There are many technical solutions available, but out the gate, it seems like we should be seeking some greater level of culpability on behalf of those holding this data, perhaps even considering the GDPR in context. We can at least ask that of our government. A petition has been started to at least raise visibility of this to congress. Start the dialog at the right levels, and hope it will not get steamrolled by lobbyists.
The free market will not fix this situation because the people they collect the data on are unwilling customers for the credit reporting agencies. We have no choice to opt out let alone easily manage our data, and those who buy the credit scores (i.e. credit lenders) are not affected when there is a breach.

Switching `python3` to `python` is just inane at this point. Get rid of `python` in general and explicitly call what you need, the problem will resolve itself over time, and there will not be a problem with python4 following in suit. Either that or go the java route (which is also a nightmare to manage).
I run CentOS in production as it is (still) where a predominance of security hardening is defined (see SCAP). And Fedora is the "edge" for CentOS. Like it or not, RHEL still drives enterprise.
Plus, yum/dnf is a lot less painful than apt:)
In reality, I'm switching most of my production to Alpine; CentOS / Fedora will probably fade away for me as Docker takes over.
New startup. Pre-fund each expense on your credit card before you spend, use one-time virtual cards on sketchy sites, and pin unique virtual cards to each online vendor so you can lock it down. Credit cards for the modern era.
The article is nice on pointing out problems but has zero answers. I recommend Activator, it outlines the same problems and gives solutions. http://amzn.to/2qHTDaM.
Assuming you are asking about the tech industry, this book (http://amzn.to/2oZdWyx) describes how to use Design Thinking for doing exactly what you are talking about. It just came out, and I've been through it with my team. We all have loved it.
Sorry looks like multiple titles involved. here is the link. https://www.amazon.com/How-Hug.... Gaslighting is a common behavior of borderline personality disorder and victim type people. It is challenging but doable to live with this type of personality. The book is great at explaining it.
I assume that leaving is out of the question. That means you must address it internally. Read this book. It talks about how to deal with difficult toxic people.
There are a bunch of liberal perspectives arguing that scalia should be replaced with a liberal. But this will dramatically unbalance the court. Set your political views aside for a moment and recognize that the best situation that can exist is when the court is truly balanced--the nation has people of different perspectives. Not everybody agrees with you, and having a highest court that represents this diversity is the most open minded approach.
I frankly would hope that Obama's integrity would be such that he would nominate somebody with conservative values, just like Scalia, to replace the conservative seat he represented.
I was just looking at a contract to be a vendor at a conference center in Indianapolis with internet managed by Smart City. $80 doesn't begin to describe their costs.
For a SINGLE computer on their network with shared bandwidth the base price is $895. Each additional device is $185.
If you want dedicated bandwidth it gets ridiculous. For 10Mbps they expect you to pay $9,810. I did not accidentally add a digit, that is nearly $10,000 for a single conference's internet access for a vendor.
Smart City is suppressing wifi not because of the random users, but because they have a strangle-hold on the vendors who want to show their wares, and everything is internet connected nowdays.
My sister had a drunk altercation with her GF in Missoula MT (her own mistake, which she admits to and is working through alcoholic counseling for). The problem was the legal side spiraled out of control into a soap opera tale of good-ole-boy corruption you would only expect to see in prime time. It included collusion with the Judge, the city, and a police officer who effectively was stalking and harassing her. They slapped a restraining order on her, limiting her from visiting the house she owned, because her GF was still there, yet they wouldn't serve her any paperwork explaining the limitations of the ban, and then waited for her to appear so they could arrest her again (this is just one of numerous things they tried). Very much abuse (long sordid tale). ACLU didn't want to touch it, even though it was clear American Civil Liberties were being infringed upon because of the city's actions (through judicial and police force). She lost thousands and thousands of dollars in damages to her house and property because of the overt shenanigans of the city, but nobody cared. She doesn't have enough to afford anything beyond a public defender who isn't worth the air the breathe (would miss appointments, etc).

Most companies I've worked with roll the three together into one agreement (Non disclose, Non compete, and IP assignment).
It does suck tho.

Changing the ID doesn't help. The problem is we are not authenticating. We need authentication, then the ID does not matter. Sovrin.org as a start?

Is there an emulator this would run under?
