Very good, mod parent up. Body language is very important. Does he/she keep his/her hands visible, and what "story" do the hands tell ? Do you get to look the interviewee straight into the eyes, and as often as you want ? Deduct points for every time you hear "Honestly..." or "Frankly...", for you may be sure that after these words you are going to hear the exact opposite of what they mean.
...this sounds to me, as a European. When we are sick, we simply stay at home. A social insurance we obligedly contribute to pays the salary, after the first three days ( which, at least in Austria, the country I live in, are paid for by the employer, as regulated by law and trade-union agreements ). The tone of TFA seems like coming from another planet...
Amen. Same here in Austria. In my company, we have VoIP phones sitting on our desks. Even they gather dust - nobody uses them, especially not the geeks I work with. The number of new landline installations, per any time period, in private homes, has sunk to nearly zero. Everybody is on mobile, period.
Man, where are the mod points when you need them ??? I was reading TFA, first, in earnest, then stumbled upon your contribution. I laughed my guts out ( while sitting on this crappy hotel room's chamber pot, though ).
I mean - hey. When working in France, I had a 2,5-hour lunch break to enable the liver to do salutory ethanol-breaking-down work. A job at Samsung HQ, however, sounds even more interesting.
To "old" hands like me, GitHub is one of the last places reminiscent of the great liberties we had up to the end of the '90s. So what do we care ? Take code from GitHub, copy/paste, re-implement ideas you find there, possibly implemented badly.... C'mon, who gives a damn about copyright on GitHub ????
This prolly means that the regime ( the Assad one ) is in their last ditches, and fighting the eponymous fight. Soon, some rebel fraction is going to take over in Syria. Some of whom may be heavily bearded men who think that democracy is filth. And so on, and so on...
LOLz. This one provoked first the crack of a smile, then a wide grin, and finally a hearty laugh with me. Each phrase, starting with "Well given that..." contains so many crap assumptions - that is exactly what makes it so funny.
Another approach would be the calculus of an entropy vector, based upon the relative frequencies of the letters of the alphabet. If the used alphabet has n letters, then one would need to calculate an n-dimensional entropy vector, and compare that one with entropy vectors calculated from texts used in WW II for one-time pads. Could that possibly work ? ( I know, the encrypted text is very short, I know... )

...for APL. Ha !!
...to be made for programmers ! Let's go and rake in some of that....
That depends whether or not you adhere to the open-world axiom. If you do, you have a point. If you don't, you are in contradiction with yourself.

Male skin is not affected, thusly.
the only true evil in the world today is the Taliban
the closest to true evil in the world today is the Taliban. There, FTFY.
They are going to use MS Sharepoint, aren't they ?
2.7 sigma is nothing to base any conclusions upon, not in science. C'mon. News at 11.

Amen. Sigh. Amen again. I also miss the days when a computer was just a comp..... Oh, wait.
"Correlation does not equal causation". Or isn't it ? :-P

Even if I fully agree with Stallman, I agree with you, too. The 2 opinions do not exclude eachother. Where are my f*****g modpoints ?
(and for executives, playing glof)
Can you tell us more about this interesting game, unknown outside of South Korea ?
somebody has to take care of their kids if they have to drink late
"Would you like to go out with me, tomorrow evening ?" "Sorry, I can't. I will have to drink late with my boss and play glof".

It did, after all, influence trading. What if this stunt was disguised as an - admittedly stupid - mistake, but in fact wasn't one ?
....when human beings, if ever, will get to see such things directly with their own eyes. How far away are such times ?

What the hell, dude - how can a friggin' toy be christian ???? What a heap of BS !

They all failed. Invariably. So what makes this one different ???
