Protecting, oh no, they were engaged in racist activities selectively targeting any employee Asian looking (what is ethnic Chinese meant to mean) and spying on them. It is a corporation, anyone could have sold it and typically look at the top not the bottom, in fact look right at the person who thought it was a good idea to target Asian looking employees in a racist fashion.
How much would they have paid, millions, well they only pay that to top because they get lock in (extortion value, high level source and they protect their privacy to hide their corrupt interactions with their own government, enabling the hiding of corrupt interactions with foreign governments, the higher up they are, the reality now stop with the lies, the more corrupt they are likely to be in the modern era).
Look at the top executives of the corporation and check the offshore tax haven accounts.
Bingo, you got it right there. Nothing what so ever to do with extremist content. One hour notice, to pull any political comment and then weeks to put it back up only to have to pull it back down again an hour latter. What is the directive about, bulk 'er' accidental mass political censorship.
Want to pull something from the internet, do it in court you cunts. If it really was illegal, not only will you get the content pulled but get to hand out a custodial sentence for a criminal act but oh no, that is not what you want, nothing at all to do with crime, oh know wait it is, electoral crimes. Basically using the offices of government to actively and routinely censor the opposition and the public.
Apparently yes, why the reality because it gives shameless bullshitters a huge advantage, without it, the lying scum buckets would have no employment because beyond their ability to lie shamelessly about what ever they are told to lie about, they are shallow worthless cunts.
Here's the material, read it for yourself. OHHHHH NOOOESS I can't possibly do that, I am toooo stupid to read, read it to me, in that most charming way a shameless liar does.
For those who support public presentation, go fuck yourselves you shameless lying pieces of shit. I have never ever in my fucking whole life ever preferred a public presentation over having the information handed to me to read and then email off a few queries and wait for a reply. Not fucking once, not fucking ever. For me, the only reason public presentation occur was so that the most worthless cunts of all, shameless liars, could get a job.
Fuck off with this shit you fucking twats. Except teachers, if you are learning to be a teacher and doing lectures, cool public speaking for you, for the rest, the lying politicians, the lying media dick brains, the lying public speakers selling what ever crap, time shares, retirement funds, insurance, what ever the crap, my attitude to them, fuck off (all you cunts ever have done in decades of presentation that I had to sit through is waste my fucking time, two hours of presentation replaced with one page of notes). The fucking morons who just love to talk and talk and talk and demand that people listen.
A missile is technically an autonomous weapon once fired. They will get smarter and longer ranged (powered all the way to the target and beyond) and will go for the ram kill because that way, the various counter measures fail, they try, try, try again until they hit something. So a limit on how smart a missile is, or when a missile becomes a drone, or drones that hunt down targets and then explode upon impact.
I am trying to imagine why the consider people murdering people to be better than robots murdering robots, because they are not doing the fighting and dying I suppose. I mean once your robot army has been beaten to a mangle pile of spare parts, you just give up. I suppose those at the top, still want the millions at the bottom to die bloody and mangled defending those at the top.
Most air defence systems are largely autonomous, you switch them on, allow them to fire but they do the rest themselves. Of course the US wants to ban anyone else's air defence systems because the ones they sell are back doored and will not shoot down American aircraft, so they can attack you when you are their frenemy, which everyone. Wow do they kick up a stink when you buy Russian gear because yeah sure to shoot down F35 Flying Pigs.
Do you know the main reason for the desirability of autonomous weapon systems, to reliably kill your own citizens without remorse, once the digital command is given, by whom ever controls it. Do you know the main reason for why autonomous weapon systems are bad because they will reliably kill your own citizens without remorse, once the digital command is given, by whom ever controls it. Isn't there a delightful sense of symmetry in that, a real balance of insanity;D.
So why is the US military industrial complex so desperate for autonomous weapon systems, has their conspired delusion of democracy become too much of a hassle and they just well, want to issue demands and have them obeyed, else there will be an incident.
An interesting feature would be to test who actually owns that battery, fitted to the vehicle. Tesla claim to own and control it but it is in the vehicle you own and control, so what right of control can Tesla claim over it. Can you bill them for carrying around their battery, extra mass uses extra energy and they claim it is theirs. What happens if you hack it, legally demand access, in your vehicle they put it there, they gave it to you, you have to carry it around at your cost, so whose is it really.
If I was carrying it around at my expense, I would sue for access to it or sue to bill them for that cost.
Not just what it can do but how long it can do it. Molecular drift, apparently can cause real problems, add heat and over time new circuits can form or old ones break. How reliable are they over the long term.
Google had a change of direction. Alphabet was formed as a place for the dick bags to hide as they went psychopathically insane and wanted total power and total control, control the users, control elections, control the government, control the planet, the big shit went nuts and had to stand down. Too much bandwidth is bad for that, to free a flow of information and so they sided with those who wanted corporate controlled strangleband, where you only get what they allow you.
Google went from being the friend of broadband to the enemy of broadband. Now, as more and more of the douche baggery character is being exposed PR pump pieces appear.
Google cut broadband expansion because it would lose control over that bandwidth, lose dominance rather than gaining more. Google evil is as evil does.
Historians will look back on those China tariffs and call them the 'Wallmart Sales Tax' all targeted at the poor to specifically fund tax cuts for the rich. They are really choking the chicken now though, can't last much longer, infrastructure is already collapsing, pollution has gone insane and blowing money on faked up wars like there is no tomorrow. Really quite sad to watch, all that screaming about nothing as the empire crumbles and eats itself.
I would tend to go with the same idea. A lot of employees at companies are quite unproductive, even more just barely so. The most productive ones, tend to slack off down to the pace of the less productive and just let it slide with regard to the impact on the company. The Peter principle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... definitely seems to be at work at work and can cut in much earlier than people realise, right at initial employment.
I have known companies where the staff developed a reputation for ganging up on and removing quality employees who knew to much because they were a threat to the mediocre (company gossip can provide real competitive advantage).
A whole lot of staff members get by on their personality and or appearance, without even brown nosing and of course there are the really unproductive brown nosers. I would say it was pretty normal to fifty percent of employees to carry the other fifty percent, when it goes beyond 40% doing the work, things start going really bad.
Nope, the majority of people have just made one particular mistake, they let psychopaths run everything. The discussion leans heavily one way and yet the actions are opposite. Why, because we let psychopaths run the system and they do not give one fuck about what they are doing beyond it enriching and empowering them, the harm they cause, completely indifferent to it, beyond getting a perverse kick from the suffering they are causing.
It is just a minority, that a really horrible, 1% of the general population, 15% of the prison population and 50% of violent crimes. That 1% numbers comes up fro another reason, oh yeah, we are letting the insane run what they have turned society into, an insane asylum.
Simply test for psychopathy early and exclude them from positions where they 'WILL' cause harm.
I would be surprised if the most valuable artefacts have not already changed hands. You know pilfer stuff for weeks and then burn it down to hide what is missing. So which is the more likely accident or major theft. What no smoke alarms, no fire sprinklers, no alerts at the fire station for rapid attendance, sleepy security guards.
It's meant to be a professionally run museum, you know in reality how big fires should get at museums, first hint of smoke and the fire brigade is there in just a few minutes and security has gone nuts looking for it and the fire prevention system knows exactly where in the structure that hint of smoke is.
Fire in a museum, most likely reason, cover theft.
My answer to that. Wake up, don't be a fool. Taking you child to the ballpark to pay to watch others play and have fun is stupid. Take your child to the ballpark and with other parents and their children and play baseball. Spectator sports selling rubbish are so last millennium, this millennium is all about participation, participating as much as you can. There ain't no real fun in watching others have fun, you are just being sold, not once but thrice over, one to longer participate in sport directly, two you paid to watch and three they sell you rubbish whilst there and we are not talking the bad food, all the advertising (the silly crap people will believe, yeah, paying to watch others have fun is the best thing in the world, no it ain't, you have been sold, you have been conned into believing nonsense, want to have fun, participate don't watch).
You have no idea. The bosses only give a crap about how much you are worth on one side of the payment equation. Are they paying you less than the profit you are generating, that is all. How much less, they can pay you, BONUS.
You want to earn money as a developer, learn different language skills, how to shamelessly lie, verbal emotional manipulation, learn to listen to other people's ideas to steal them, finding the right staff, how to pay them as little as possible, the language of IPOs, and accepting you are a cunt and fuck everyone else. The you are on your path to the top, it is the way the system is designed, it is they way they, those of that ilk designed it.
What you are worth, is what you can be exploited for, in today's capitalist society and that is it, die immediately after useful exploitation over, so fucking what, in fact bonus.
Honestly, seriously, and the reality to the question want to be better off as a developer, only one answer to that question, become more politically active, because the system has been stacked against you and is very corruptly run. Yes, you have to do the hard yards as a result of decades of indifference to socio economic politics. That is the truth, you must campaign for better employment conditions overall, as well as better social conditions and infrastructure because they are the real drivers for better or worse social conditions, not the imaginary carrot you are chasing with the threat of the stick chasing along behind.
It's M$ not matter what you check, to pump up this quarters profits according to some dick spreadsheet, if they change what ever they choose to change and it makes it more insecure, they will change it. They have pretty much zero reliability, touting stuff, dumping it when the profitability is not there or there is greater profitability elsewhere, leaving users in the lurch, not a few times but a whole lot of times. What ever it is they are pushing today, will be different in a years time and most often worse for the user. Specifically the more users that pick it up, the worse it becomes, the more M$ dick spreadsheeters think they can leverage it to increase profits and basically bugger the end users. Often end users scream, abandon the product and the M$ abandons it looking for the next lock in scam to leverage.
They have not been a part of the solution for years, they and their ilk largely are the problem. They will sell your privacy, security and copyright the very second, well actually before they a fully certain they can get away with it, greed pushes them to strike early and as it turns out normally fail. They are an extremely unreliable supplier and not to be trusted.
How about much simpler example from say the US perspective. How about the library of congress creates a scientific journal publishing site, you know buys one less F35 flying pig and they review and publish scientific articles (fraud and you will be straight on the hook for prosecution), all 100% available to the general public. This along with other things the Library of Congress should be doing in the digital age. Things like an anonymous public forum of record with properly registered users, a matter of public record of public opinion, no more lying about what public opinion is. Even a FOSS distribution centre as part of public publishing. With content creation much easier and publishing being even easier again and of course advertising being of little or no value, government publishing as a public service, a real library of congress becomes well, the sane thing to do.
Around the world, governments of all strips can build and run, their government digital publishing public service, for the benefit of all citizens accessing the service and indirectly promoting those who publish on it. FOSS of course becomes quite interesting when hosted by a Government publishers and how that connects into Universities and Industry as well as with direct access by the public.
A balance of cost versus savings, in this case savings to the public would far outweigh cost to the public.
The supermarkets et al will be the ones with the most chargers. Expect them at all undercover car parks oh and carparks themselves, why refuse the extra income and of course most work places will have some chargers, why waste money with your company vehicles, when you have a roof, make money with it.
Reality is new electric vehicles will not be so much competing against each other but against the infernal combustion variety of motor vehicle. The more electrics in the market, the more popular they will become and people still seem to refuse to accept, yes it is way, way cheaper to charge your electric vehicle at home or at work, than to fill the tank of an infernal combustion motor, way cheaper. No pay for your home to go full solar with batteries and charging your electric car in terms of savings, well, you would think the no brainier would be obvious but of course fossil fueller counter advertising, PR=B$.
What is interesting, is why did Blomberg report it as an attack on Tesla, why the lie. Nothing to do with Tesla, this is an expansion of the attack on fossil fuellers, wont affect Tesla much at all, it will drive demand for electric vehicles across the board though, right in the story 'âoeThere is no alternative to betting on electric cars, and weâ(TM)re going all in,â Zetsche said. âoeIt is starting right now.â', nothing to do with Tesla an attack on fossil fuels. So Tesla's market niche pretty untouched, they are going for the bulk market, the mass market not speciality vehicles at all. Yeah, sell your fossil fuel stocks, in spite of the temporary protection of Blomberg via that corrupted headline.
Pretty interesting note in that story. Arrested on rape allegations and allowed to leave the country and go to a country without extradition treaties, now how did that happen. Innocent or guilty, easy to guess, comes back innocent, stays in China well, we can all guess exactly why.
Question is, is he safer here or in China. Become an embarrassment to the government of China and well your company will survive dependent upon the connections around you but you might not. Prosecuted on corruption charges is the normal outcome. Play the fool in Australia, well get one pass, repeat in the US, well, more of an individual burden to the government than a benefit. So what is his social score now.
Why, just why is anyone paying attention to anything on twitter. Seriously it only becomes of note, anything what so ever, when it leaves twitter. On twitter the message is nothing, just another mindless scream into nothing, the only impact it has, is once it leaves twitter and enters the rest of the internet. Twitter only seems to provide a service to create comments so that people can complain about them on other platforms and serve advertising of course. Corporate main stream media, is the only thing that gives twitter any impact, just on twitter and no one gives a fuck, so what does twitter do when it's messaging is pretty useless without the rest of the internet.
So place comment on twitter and then post on the rest of the web about that comment, twitters apparent role.
I have noticed on the occasional google test (the geek thing to keep track), they have been getting worse and more biased, more advertiser friendly, except when they are not. I noticed they would kick the advertisers regular search results, 'below the fold', when they served up the ad, to get you to click the ad and make the advertiser pay for that search, because the end user did not see them in the results and clicked the ad instead. Really bent that. You pay google ads words for worse google searches, greedy is as greedy does. So you know google's search algorithms now incorporate a whole range of adwords algorithms, which ever serves the most profit for them at the time or in the most crazy way, serves the political ideology of the board and fuck the investors.
What is it with tech companies and that delusion of total power, why does it always infest the minds of it's board members and get seemingly rational people to do insane things for this quarters return when it will kill the company over the long term.
From their accountants perspective they have absolutely succeeded in vetting ads. They vet them immediately, well, some time after, they have been paid and put the ads up. Pay first, upload next to keep the coin and then wait for complaints, more profit.
Newspapers, tv, radio all vetted their ads prior to being paid and obviously well before broadcasting them, well, they used to, until they started sinking to Google's level. When you are paid to broadcast an advertisement, you should be legally liable for the contents of that advertisement. You made money from the advertisement, you should be legal liable for the veracity of that advertisement. They have absolutely no excuse for broadcasting lies for profit, all those in that particular food chain of fraud, should pay a similar price. Fail to vet first, fail to verify veracity, make a profit, well, pay that to the victims at least, all revenue generated and beyond until damages are covered, either in civil suit or custodial sentence for criminal negligence in fraudulent promotion.
Well everyone knows exactly why they had to make the interface convoluted and confusing, to hide the privacy invasive features, where they monitor you calls and analyse them for keywords, and replace them with more suitable advertiser friendly words. Maybe also calling people on your contacts list pretending to be you to sell them what ever.
You know the configuration, that is buried in the bowels of the software, behind 6 different menus, and then behind the configuration warning that you house might blow up if you change that particular setting and just in case you made the change by accident even after all that, make you confirm it three times with more emphatic house blowing up warnings each and every time and just to make sure, you have to make that configuration change in ten different locations with the same confirmations and warnings, including acknowledging them referring you to your home insurance company with a warning that they should cancel your home insurance policy because you house might blow up.
Just in case, should you attempt to use Skype in the next thirty days, it will revert to default settings. Not to worry at next upgrade it will revert to default settings any how. M$ because fuck your privacy and fuck you to dare to ask for it. M$ because a pack of cunts will be a pack of cunts.
Not all people are customers. Being a starving peasant living in poverty does not make you a customer.
All this points to the same fucking thing, US intelligence agencies just had to play idiot fuckwit games and now no one trusts US corporations and major countries are striving to force localised development.
The big winner going forward FOSS because it gives a major head start to independent technology production.
I see a major global fracturing taking place, between the haves and the have nots. Those who have control over the technology infrastructure of their country and the technoslave states, those who have given control of the technological infrastructure to other countries, the off switch, the privacy switch, the data control switch (who and what your citizens are).
Technoslaves those who do not control their digital lives be they individuals or countries.
In this case at a guess, 100% of the budget will be spent on figuring out what they need to do, what the problems are and what possible solutions could be.
That they are looking for solutions no other government controls would point to FOSS and so you can expect a major resurgence of FOSS in the EU. The EU absolutely does no trust US government security letters no US corporations, any more. I reckon they have figured out the US corporations they were paying, were back dooring everything they were buying.
This organisation will likely be very bad for US software companies, well your profits just got fucked by the CIA and NSA, had to play games and now the results. Reality, of the three, USA, China and Russia, you should probably trust the USA by far the least (the cheat on public in your face treaties and have done so for centuries, their word is shit and has been for centuries, why would anyone in the right mind trust anything the US government has to say or puts in writing or publicly gives oath to in any or every house of their government, congress or senate, all empty bullshit).
The route of holes drilled into people's head, probes and electric currents applied. Well torture also becomes legal, no private right to your own body, organs played with at will.
Some pretty sick fuckers in the five eyes, real psychopathic cunts.
Privacy is absolute you cunts and guaranteed by constitutional law. You get to force fuck all you rotting stinking pack of cunts. We do it, we force the politicians to write the laws, so that you fuck wit cunts in five eyes, are thrown the fuck out and replaced by human beings who believe in justice.
You sticking pack of egoistic cunts in Five Eyes, listen up you pack of dead dog dick sucking morons, it is us, the electorate who do forcing and that includes forcing the firing of you egoistic big mouthed cunts. Remember who really writes the laws you fuckers.

With content creation much easier and publishing being even easier again and of course advertising being of little or no value, government publishing as a public service, a real library of congress becomes well, the sane thing to do.
Around the world, governments of all strips can build and run, their government digital publishing public service, for the benefit of all citizens accessing the service and indirectly promoting those who publish on it. FOSS of course becomes quite interesting when hosted by a Government publishers and how that connects into Universities and Industry as well as with direct access by the public.
A balance of cost versus savings, in this case savings to the public would far outweigh cost to the public.
The supermarkets et al will be the ones with the most chargers. Expect them at all undercover car parks oh and carparks themselves, why refuse the extra income and of course most work places will have some chargers, why waste money with your company vehicles, when you have a roof, make money with it.
Reality is new electric vehicles will not be so much competing against each other but against the infernal combustion variety of motor vehicle. The more electrics in the market, the more popular they will become and people still seem to refuse to accept, yes it is way, way cheaper to charge your electric vehicle at home or at work, than to fill the tank of an infernal combustion motor, way cheaper. No pay for your home to go full solar with batteries and charging your electric car in terms of savings, well, you would think the no brainier would be obvious but of course fossil fueller counter advertising, PR=B$.
What is interesting, is why did Blomberg report it as an attack on Tesla, why the lie. Nothing to do with Tesla, this is an expansion of the attack on fossil fuellers, wont affect Tesla much at all, it will drive demand for electric vehicles across the board though, right in the story 'âoeThere is no alternative to betting on electric cars, and weâ(TM)re going all in,â Zetsche said. âoeIt is starting right now.â', nothing to do with Tesla an attack on fossil fuels. So Tesla's market niche pretty untouched, they are going for the bulk market, the mass market not speciality vehicles at all. Yeah, sell your fossil fuel stocks, in spite of the temporary protection of Blomberg via that corrupted headline.
Pretty interesting note in that story. Arrested on rape allegations and allowed to leave the country and go to a country without extradition treaties, now how did that happen. Innocent or guilty, easy to guess, comes back innocent, stays in China well, we can all guess exactly why.
Question is, is he safer here or in China. Become an embarrassment to the government of China and well your company will survive dependent upon the connections around you but you might not. Prosecuted on corruption charges is the normal outcome. Play the fool in Australia, well get one pass, repeat in the US, well, more of an individual burden to the government than a benefit. So what is his social score now.
Why, just why is anyone paying attention to anything on twitter. Seriously it only becomes of note, anything what so ever, when it leaves twitter. On twitter the message is nothing, just another mindless scream into nothing, the only impact it has, is once it leaves twitter and enters the rest of the internet. Twitter only seems to provide a service to create comments so that people can complain about them on other platforms and serve advertising of course. Corporate main stream media, is the only thing that gives twitter any impact, just on twitter and no one gives a fuck, so what does twitter do when it's messaging is pretty useless without the rest of the internet.
So place comment on twitter and then post on the rest of the web about that comment, twitters apparent role.
I have noticed on the occasional google test (the geek thing to keep track), they have been getting worse and more biased, more advertiser friendly, except when they are not. I noticed they would kick the advertisers regular search results, 'below the fold', when they served up the ad, to get you to click the ad and make the advertiser pay for that search, because the end user did not see them in the results and clicked the ad instead. Really bent that. You pay google ads words for worse google searches, greedy is as greedy does. So you know google's search algorithms now incorporate a whole range of adwords algorithms, which ever serves the most profit for them at the time or in the most crazy way, serves the political ideology of the board and fuck the investors.
What is it with tech companies and that delusion of total power, why does it always infest the minds of it's board members and get seemingly rational people to do insane things for this quarters return when it will kill the company over the long term.
From their accountants perspective they have absolutely succeeded in vetting ads. They vet them immediately, well, some time after, they have been paid and put the ads up. Pay first, upload next to keep the coin and then wait for complaints, more profit.
Newspapers, tv, radio all vetted their ads prior to being paid and obviously well before broadcasting them, well, they used to, until they started sinking to Google's level. When you are paid to broadcast an advertisement, you should be legally liable for the contents of that advertisement. You made money from the advertisement, you should be legal liable for the veracity of that advertisement. They have absolutely no excuse for broadcasting lies for profit, all those in that particular food chain of fraud, should pay a similar price. Fail to vet first, fail to verify veracity, make a profit, well, pay that to the victims at least, all revenue generated and beyond until damages are covered, either in civil suit or custodial sentence for criminal negligence in fraudulent promotion.
Well everyone knows exactly why they had to make the interface convoluted and confusing, to hide the privacy invasive features, where they monitor you calls and analyse them for keywords, and replace them with more suitable advertiser friendly words. Maybe also calling people on your contacts list pretending to be you to sell them what ever.
You know the configuration, that is buried in the bowels of the software, behind 6 different menus, and then behind the configuration warning that you house might blow up if you change that particular setting and just in case you made the change by accident even after all that, make you confirm it three times with more emphatic house blowing up warnings each and every time and just to make sure, you have to make that configuration change in ten different locations with the same confirmations and warnings, including acknowledging them referring you to your home insurance company with a warning that they should cancel your home insurance policy because you house might blow up.
Just in case, should you attempt to use Skype in the next thirty days, it will revert to default settings. Not to worry at next upgrade it will revert to default settings any how. M$ because fuck your privacy and fuck you to dare to ask for it. M$ because a pack of cunts will be a pack of cunts.
Not all people are customers. Being a starving peasant living in poverty does not make you a customer.
All this points to the same fucking thing, US intelligence agencies just had to play idiot fuckwit games and now no one trusts US corporations and major countries are striving to force localised development.
The big winner going forward FOSS because it gives a major head start to independent technology production.
I see a major global fracturing taking place, between the haves and the have nots. Those who have control over the technology infrastructure of their country and the technoslave states, those who have given control of the technological infrastructure to other countries, the off switch, the privacy switch, the data control switch (who and what your citizens are).
Technoslaves those who do not control their digital lives be they individuals or countries.
In this case at a guess, 100% of the budget will be spent on figuring out what they need to do, what the problems are and what possible solutions could be.
That they are looking for solutions no other government controls would point to FOSS and so you can expect a major resurgence of FOSS in the EU. The EU absolutely does no trust US government security letters no US corporations, any more. I reckon they have figured out the US corporations they were paying, were back dooring everything they were buying.
This organisation will likely be very bad for US software companies, well your profits just got fucked by the CIA and NSA, had to play games and now the results. Reality, of the three, USA, China and Russia, you should probably trust the USA by far the least (the cheat on public in your face treaties and have done so for centuries, their word is shit and has been for centuries, why would anyone in the right mind trust anything the US government has to say or puts in writing or publicly gives oath to in any or every house of their government, congress or senate, all empty bullshit).
The route of holes drilled into people's head, probes and electric currents applied. Well torture also becomes legal, no private right to your own body, organs played with at will.
Some pretty sick fuckers in the five eyes, real psychopathic cunts.
Privacy is absolute you cunts and guaranteed by constitutional law. You get to force fuck all you rotting stinking pack of cunts. We do it, we force the politicians to write the laws, so that you fuck wit cunts in five eyes, are thrown the fuck out and replaced by human beings who believe in justice.
You sticking pack of egoistic cunts in Five Eyes, listen up you pack of dead dog dick sucking morons, it is us, the electorate who do forcing and that includes forcing the firing of you egoistic big mouthed cunts. Remember who really writes the laws you fuckers.
Once you censor, than you are legally liable for not censoring. Choose and perish ;P.
Allow the courts to censor and you have no problem, all entirely the law makers and the courts problem.
