You're basically wrong. You negotiate a salary knowing what's expected, at least after the first year you do, even if your a kid.
Nobody does 40 hours of 'actual work', and you can exercise some control. Skip the useless meeting and get some work done in peace or zone out while the 3 letter dweeb pontificates (careful: don't snore). Pretty much everybody has had weeks where zero fucks are given and zero productive work gets done, don't kid yourself. Usually means your already looking hard, if you aren't you should be.
Smart places keep the standard week under 50, but that's so the employees will have 'something in the tank' for emergency weeks. Idiots staff so that every week is an emergency. You'll learn to spot it in the faces and attitudes of prospective coworkers during interviews. Most people are shitty liars, managers ask employees to lie to interviewees all the time, but their hearts aren't generally in it. Look for tells.
Ask: 'How many open issues in the bug tracking system for live code, right now?' They'll duck: 'At what severity?' You counter: 'How is severity done here? How many 'workarounds' are live?'
Extra facetime. Never forget burnout. Expect hours over 50 to have negative productivity in all but the very short term. For 'brain work', 'bullshit and stoop work' is different.
Producing more working code is not going to translate into more pay, because the idiot's metrics are _broken_. They got the middle manager position by kissing ass and putting in facetime. That's exactly what they will manage for.
There is an iron law of management: 'You get what you incentivise.' Not what you ask for, leading by example, mission statement or any other bullshit.
They are all dicks, but Oracle is at another level. Their marketing and licencing in particular.
The exceptionally evil part of Oracle is marketing. Which I will bet has more than its share of females. Boobies and blowjobs being good for sales and all.
Not as good as a future 'no show job' for the decider at 10x pay though. All those massively overpaid no show jobs have to distort the stats. I'll bet they aren't classified as tech, rather marketing.
You remain a mammal, you notice and it affects your behavior. Which isn't to say it turns you into a pig, more you are extra nice to the tits owner operator.
I'll grant that it's rare in tech. Just based on demographics.
Story: At work, Girl comes in wearing a push-up bra, I notice. Ask: 'Did you change your hair? Something is different today...' Later one of the other women decides I need 'clueing in' tells me she's wearing a new bra...I say: 'Duh, I can't exactly compliment her on that.'
If I was uglier, that would have been harassment, as it was, we were flirting. People do that.
Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit! Capacity factors are not 'concocted'. They are calculated based on history.
Fixed solar in sunny tropical locations produces about 4-5 hours worth of 100% power per day at maximum. Just based on motion of the sun. That gets worse rapidly as you move away from the equator.
Utilization factor = power generated / (power that could be generated when the resource is available).
Capacity factor = power generated / (power that could be generated in all hours).
Solar and wind are typically dispatched as 'must run' being 'use it or lose it', so their utilization factor is near 100%. But that just shows that 'utilization factor' is a statistical lie cooked up to obscure CRAP capacity factors.
They are predictably eating their own. It will get worse before it gets better.
They will never be convinced, but are well on their way to being ignored.
The harsh truth is they are throwing a tantrum because the bitch lost. Like all toddlers, they will cry themselves to sleep eventually, likely shortly after the 2020 election.
I'd be pissed he was whoring around on my money too. But he did make money for most of his investors.
He wasn't the first hollywood producer to act like this, and he isn't the last either.
Most talented game devs are gamers, not SJWs. Making them happy isn't going to involve sexual harassment panda. Bosses that grab scrote are way over the line, assuming the accusation is true. Surprised he didn't simply get his arm broken. That's the 'Bro' solution.
Slashdot Mirror
Metastases on/in bone left marks. There isn't a ton of data, but 'no idea' is bullshit.
We also know average age at death and cancer rates vs age in modern primitive populations.
You can't even go to the nudie bar at lunch with coworkers without some bitch getting her panties into a bunch.
When the women finally figured out what 'free lunch'* ment, there was hell to pay.
* nudie bar promotion, nobody ate it. But did lead to conversations like 'Free lunch? Can't, ball and chain is watching my funds. You poor bastard!'

Keep telling yourself that.

You never played duke nukem, it's just obvious.
'Picture Bugs Bunny anally raping Elmer Fudd. It's funny.' Para G. Carlin.

How would you react to an all normal male (by rule) panal?
There's your answer.
Past that. It's 'investigate the coverup' time.
The women that refused likely have cases, against Weinstein AND the whores he did hire (his co conspirators).
The ones that took the role/sucked the cock, nope. Many of those were on the initial outrage list.
You lost the thread a 'perfume'.
Axe is a thing, as are 'arab showers' in general.
IIRC 'Custer's Last Stand', on the Atari 2600 involved a rapey lowres 'cutscene' between levels.
That was more a troll than a game.
'Duke Nukem' required a sense of humor, hence it was clearly a 'no feminists' game.
SJWs bitched a bunch about Laura's tities. But the world was saner and they were just ignored.
Both genders? You heteronormative CIS pig! You'll pay for that with your career. (Post where you work.)
'Candy Crush' exists. Nobody complains, they just don't play that game. It has its niche.
The large majority of game dollars is spent by young males. The market reflects this.
The large majority of beauty product dollars are spent by other than straight males. The market reflects this.
Orbital solar for terrestrial power is IDIOTIC.
Until launch costs are much, much lower. Just put up 999x as many solar cells on the ground, make much more power for much less money.
Sneaky bastard!

We've dug up an awful lot of ancient graves by now. 'No idea' is overstating the case, by a lot.
Dividends are quaint. The term you are looking for is 'growth'.
They are predictably eating their own. It will get worse before it gets better.

Honestly, depends how nice the tits are. Not ashamed to admit, I like bobbies and they do affect my behavior. I am a mammal.
Hot chick privilege is a thing. Chappell did a bit about a chick with nice titties wishing them away. TRUTH.

Once you're old enough to breed, evolution is done with you.
Ancient people didn't typically live long enough to get cancer.
Cue the guy to claim is was 'all infant mortality'. He is wrong.
Everybody knew, she knew before the meeting. If she gives the blowjob and takes the part, she's a whore and he's a john.
The only decent people involved are the ones that ran from the room. They have cases, most don't.
Persistence is not rape, not even creepy persistence involving promises of Oscars.
How do you interpret: 'I pretended to like it', that's whoring 101.
This is a middle school philosophy based argument. The moon has vacuum and radiation that will sterilize all. It has no 'ecology'.
