The mess education is in these days has largely been created by academia and new-age, feel-good educational approaches replacing tried and true methods of actual learning. Therefore, he's quite possibly part of the problem, not the solution.
We have this policy where I'm currently working (without the change-it-weekly madness). I'm trying to get the policy relaxed slightly to something reasonable.
I live about 30 minutes outside of San Francisco. What's frightening about The City is the people who live there assume everyone who criticizes them are ignorant hillbillies.
I don't have a problem with them taking whatever job than can get. I do have a problem with American companies screwing over American workers. If this keeps up, no one will be able to afford the products or services of these companies, so they're basically trying to put themselves out of business.
Don't laugh. A couple of years ago I saw a very similar job ad. They ran it for months. Nobody with the skill set they wanted would have taken the job at the offered rate (less than $10/hour). I don't remember if I emailed them asking if they were out of their fucking minds.
Given the choice between sacrificing the 4th amendment and losing surveillance tools of questionable usefulness, I've chosen to support the current compromise. -- Obama
Try reading a copy of the koran that hasn't been whitewashed for western consumption. By their own words, he was a murder, rapist, and pedophile. One of his wives (by force) was 8 years old when the marriage was consummated.
Some moron modded you down as flamebait. I guess some people really hate the truth. The idiot is probably part of the Canadian Human Rights Commission, which has explicitly stated, "the truth is not a defense" when conducting one of their kangaroo trials because someone's feelings are hurt.
How very new age, "we must consider the _feelings_ of the criminals." Fuck that. Read the story, he isn't just some kid who remotely hacked the school system. He is also being charged with breaking and entering as he entered the school off hours to access the systems physically.
It's very typical for news stories to list the total maximum penalty to sensationalize the story. He'll probably not see a single day of prison.
Think about what you are seeing here. That's how the thinking is at Google. And because you have naive tech workers making hiring decisions, vets are been discriminated against.

Wrong. In true capitalism there is competition.

Ouch! That was a cruel comparison.
I'm not saying you are incorrect.

I must be humor impaired.
When I ran a forum I had a few simple rules.
If you are an asshole, you will get banned.
I define who is an asshole.
It varies depending on my mood.
Yes, I am an asshole.
My server, my rules.
While the UK libel laws are still in need of serious fixing, it looks like they got this one right.
Having sat through a few too many bad Shakespeare plays, I think royalties, and the result of fewer plays, might be a good idea in this case. :)
That would be the Rolling Stones.
Everyone else who would qualify is dead.
I'm convinced the Stones are all walking dead. More likely zombies than vampires.

This is scary. Dealing with our laws, our freedom, and our future in the exact same manner as the best singer is chosen on t.v.
A "pure democracy" has the potential to be even more oppressive than the worst sort of communism or dictatorship.
There, fixed that for ya.
As a moderate, I'm not fooled for one second by Obama's waffling.

I'd love to know the company name and generic keywords so I can start posting them all over the internet.
I nominate Vista to use a turtle mascot. It makes sense considering it's performance.
A simple lesson. How to promote piracy or encourage switching to a rival's product by refusing to sell what people want.
In the business world, this is called suicide.
I want a job at your company and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

That brings up another problem with the people at Google. They don't know what the word "irony" means.
By definition, if something is true it is not slander or defamation, no matter bad it might be.
Screw the company web server. Screw the sql database server. They've hacked the coffee machine! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
