There is no need for evidence, it's pretty obvious that if you tell your employees who live 1,000 miles away to either come into the office or quit, a good number of those will quit.
To the contrary, what is the evidence that remote employees perform worse than local? Why do we need more office space and people commuting generating pollution and congestion on our roads?
What industry do you work in and what occupation? I'm sure certain fields are more workable remote than others.
The problem with having it be a "justifiable accommodation for an especially good performer" is that everyone thinks that they are good performers and everyone will think they deserve it. It's either all or nothing.
What school requires you to learn specifically those languages to graduate? Your requirement of writing an "RTOS in C of a normal off the shelf micro controller" is arbitrary. Can you implement a neural network and a ray tracer? What about the code to solve a differential equation? Maybe the RTOS makes sense for your line of work, but not everywhere. I'm pretty sure basically all CS schools will confer you a degree without meeting that requirement, so why would you expect that of a graduate?
I wonder if the city were to pass a law that it's okay to shoot down drones within 100 horizontal feet of your property, and you shot down a state-controlled drone, what happens?
"According to the indictment, Kazaryan gained unauthorized access to – in other words, hacked into – the victims’ accounts, and changed the passwords, which locked victims out of their own online accounts. Once he controlled the accounts, Kazaryan searched emails or other files for naked or semi-naked pictures of the victims, as well as other information, such as passwords and the names of their friends. Using that information, Kazaryan posed online as women, sent instant messages to their friends, and persuaded the friends to remove their clothing so that he could view and take pictures of them."
The summary makes it sound like he was trying to get money.
Yet golf had unsurpassed popularity when Tiger Woods took over, and the predominantly white hockey still lags behind the other pro sports like football, basketball, and baseball.
Not only this, but it can be difficult to determine whether something like a drop or an interception was the fault of the quarterback or the wide receiver. Drops aren't an official statistic for this reason.
The thing is, most of the people on your list already made up their minds who they're going to vote for. By posting political stuff on Facebook, you're alienating a large number of your "friends" to only reach a handful of undecided voters. It's not a good venue for reaching people, given the personal price you pay.
+1 that's exactly what I wanted to say. There's only so much budget for astrologers. That money goes further if you have people who can dedicate their lives to it vs. trying to balance other things in their lives.
Except you'd be surprised at how often the guy who puts in the least hours/effort is the one making the most money. It all comes down to knowing how to not let these companies push you around.
Why does everything have to be about the bottom line with you people? Diaspora is a cool idea for a project. The service itself may or may not take the world by storm, but a P2P web hosting service is a novelty that I'm sure someone, somewhere, sometime is going to turn into a profitable idea and make you look like the fool that you are.

Umm 1 can of Mt. Dew is 170 calories. http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/nutrition-calories/food/generic/mountain-dew/. Still not great but 700 is a bit off.

It's just a way to lay people off without having to pay severance.
Get her one.
I think if you re-read his post you'll find he's actually on your side, numbskull.
Hell, this is as good a summary as any of what you should expect to have learned in college:

That's what he was doing.

But studies are showing CTE in kids who played just high school ball.
They did.

Rugby completely eliminates the position of quarterback, which is widely considered the most important position in football. How is that minor?
Yet golf had unsurpassed popularity when Tiger Woods took over, and the predominantly white hockey still lags behind the other pro sports like football, basketball, and baseball.
Maybe what football needs is sabermetrics on talent evaluators.

I think Carmack's point is that the other studios will push half the content at 30fps because they're lazy.
With dollar coins?

...and you continue to work for it as the phone plan costs $100/mo.

I would think that you would get wireless charging with the wireless sync, so it's pointless to worry about the drain on the phone's battery.
