Consutancies...hire competent people and pay handsomely?
Why would they do that when they could hire an incompetent recent college graduate and charge their clients the same rate. You'd bill fewer hours getting it done than the incompetent would bill not getting it done.
Basically, he came right out and said: 'I don't have a clue about anything related to computers or consultancies...'
That VP is going to get the rogering of a lifetime. If he ever calls Accenture for anything...he'll be bleeding from the asshole as well as several stab/bullet wounds used by consultants that prefer 'fresh holes' for fucking.
Never work for insurance companies or any other business that _sells_ pure commodities. They are run by and for the benefit of marketers, as that is all that matters.
When IT is just overhead, you get treated like pure overhead. Work somewhere that you job actually makes a difference.
Government set rules doesn't mean a level playing field either. It just makes the game into lobbying. In the long term, in the American political system, it _guarantees_ regulatory capture.
I don't see monopolies in most markets. Oligopolies are bad, but they don't do what you describe, in fact oligopolies pretty much guarantee that any ISP that tried would be punished on the market.
If what you believed was true, Coke and Pepsi would have long since raised their prices to monopoly levels. (Think of the wireless ISPs as Shasta, RC etc).
Monopolistic behavior attracts new market players, the last thing oligopolists want.
In my IT roles I found a strong correlation with how often and at what volume somebody proclaims their religiousness and the volume/depravity of porn found on their computers.
Not how religious they were, how loudly and often the refereed to it.
I'm including liberal SJWs in this group as they are essentially religious (thoughts supplied by leaders, world view is never examined, parrots). If they were in your face, they had depraved tentacle rape porn on their computers too.
Netflix has already claimed that being asked to pay for a spot in the ISPs rack is extortion. Bullshit. They aren't special, they can pay for their rackspace same as everyone.
There are no 'good guys', just corporations trying to shift costs and maximize revenue.
Having the federal government decide just what is and isn't QoS _isn't_ a good outcome. The markets need more competition, not thick volumes of rules that favor incumbents. See also: regulatory capture.
Sunni/Shia war is about 1200 years old. Syria/Iraq is just it flaring up again. Ignore this fact and you _can't_ understand the situation.
What nobody dares say: It's a _good_ war. Our enemies fighting each other. We need to hang back and manipulate the weapons supply (via our 'friends' the Saudis for Sunni, letting Iran think they are getting away with something for Shia) to maintain a stalemate. Iran/Iraq war style.
Let them kick the fight out of each other. They will be out of oil soon enough. Then we can get back to seriously ignoring them.
You said there was no reason for Macs to be slower in file operations. Thought you might be interested in why there was a _huge_ difference (for a while). Emulated 68k code is the answer.
Perhaps a file system that was still in 68k code slowed it down. Leaving the network stack running emulated was particularly dumb.
People soon forget just how incredibly awful MacOS pre X was (architecturally much worse than Windows 3.0). Granting they did _eventually_ get all those parts ported to power, it took years.
Corporatism is when business takes over government.
Fascism and communism are both examples of governments, ostensibly based in marxist philosophy, taking over all of business. They are 'hating cousins'.
You require swashplates etc on multirotors and you end them. Even making them variable pitch like a modern airplane prop ends them.
They go from being cheaper and simpler to more expensive and much more complicated.
Multirotors have to stick with the plan; redundancy. Redundant Array of Inexpensive Impellers.
More also means smaller cheaper props. Propellers are wear items and aren't cheap.
If the multirotors props are shrouded, autorotation isn't possible even with variable pitch. Unshrouded props on the bottom will be prone to ground strike.
KISS, it's sort of solved, shrouded hex and octo are single point of failure safe, when overbuilt. Shrouds aren't pluses, but come close to carrying their own weight in increased propeller efficiency when in hover. Gives you a chance to catch any blades that break, at least deflect them away from the pilot. Electric motors, surplus APU, backup batteries, controller from hobbyking and done. Devil is in the details there though.

Your cheap, they might actually hire you. You're not competent are you? That would be a deal breaker for them.

Silicon prairie. Silicon gulch. Silicon Slopes. The only thing they all have in common is they are bullshit.
Pick any other oligopoly then you halfwit. They behave the same.

Texas has tech pockets.
Utah? Novell...they are less tech than Kansas, Olathe has as much tech as all of Utah.

Anybody here who would work for Infosys?
They'll be lucky to get C student, recent college graduates, useless air thieves to apply. Apparently, just like in India.
It's true. Facts _are_ flamebait to liberals.
That was far from true while MacOS had 68k code all through it.
You were likely benchmarking either before power chips or after they finally ported the network stack and file system code. It performed terribly.
No. The people my comment is directed to, understand it just fine. Not being idiots and having some understanding of vehicles.

I know one of you has the PIN. Let's have it. There is enough for all of us.

The key part of Agile is: 'Hire competent enthusiastic individuals'. The rest is just fluff.
A team made up of 'competent enthusiastic individuals' can even get work done with scrum (or with just about any other millstone about their necks).
Quote the socialist: Socialism isn't Marxism, it is the welfare state...now give us control of the means of production. Same old lies.
Historically ignorant.
Corporatism is when business takes over government.
Fascism and communism are both examples of governments, ostensibly based in marxist philosophy, taking over all of business. They are 'hating cousins'.
Agile is a manifesto, nothing but good ideas, nothing to argue with really.
Agile as practiced is an excuse. Terrible idea to give management an excuse to just 'fake it'.
Now rich is a race too?
How much pressure do you get from weak vacuum? At the speeds they're planning on running...I think they'd be smegged.
