There's a post that has been circulating on LinkedIn lately that I've seen a couple of mindless recruiters send out (I won't link directly to their profiles, but it should be pretty easy to find). It opens with this:
"Have you ever been asked by a recruiter, what's your current salary or what are you looking to make? What is it about this question that is SO difficult to answer? Why do I hear story after story of people who simply FAIL to answer this question appropriately? "
The responses to these recruiters is also completely appropriate:
"Because what I currently make is irrelevant to what the position is willing to offer"
"Because I don't feel that I should care much about your referral fee".
"That's always the conundrum in such metrics. For example, it is actually well known that more powerful motorcycles are safer than underpowered ones. WHY? Because they ensure the ability to move quickly when needed in order to avoid accidents."
There's more to it than that. In Japan and some European markets, you require a certain level of experience to ride motorcycles of a certain displacement; for example, you must have a 500 cc license for at least X years before you can move up to 1000 cc. https://www.autoevolution.com/...
This is one of the reasons that you see a lot of 500 cc bikes that are actually 499 cc, or 1000 cc that are 998 cc.
It also means that people riding bigger displacement bikes have more experience, which could also mean that they are much safer.
You may include the Mexican American War as well, although France was doing their own thing in Veracruz around the same time frame. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
And how do you define "allies"? Just because you're not at war with someone doesn't mean they are your allies. Are you trying to suggest that the U.S. has always been allies with France? Because that is most certainly not the case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Zuck also said that it was "crazy" idea that fake news on Facebook influenced the election. (http://fortune.com/2016/11/11/facebook-election-fake-news-mark-zuckerberg)
Now he's being asked to hand over 1,000 ads that may have influenced the election.
So which is it? Were you in denial earlier, or just plain incompetent?
I'm a Type 1 diabetic, and when I have bouts of hypoglycemia, the Dr. recommends I drink orange juice if I don't have any glucose tablets handy for this very reason.
I started to read that post from The Economist until I got to this section:
Have you ever noticed how no one takes sentences that start “I’m not a racist, but” at face value? Here’s why, in the words of Jon Snow in “Game of Thrones” (season 7, episode 1). When Sansa Stark tells him: “They respect you, they really do, but,” Snow laughs and comes back with: “What did father used to say? Everything before the word ‘but’ is horseshit.”
Seriously....they argued with the science, but quoted Game of Thrones.
I haven't had to look anything up in a phone book in probably 20 years, but I wonder if I found one from '97 how many of the numbers would still be valid.
I didn't ask about Net Neutrality. I specifically asked about Common Carrier. Maybe I should have posted in a different thread.
I can't remember how it worked for AT&T back in the day, but could they deny phone service to someone based off of the content being delivered across said phone? I know it's a little different for them being granted monopoly status for a long time.
I do hear folks on here frequently asking for ISPs to be granted common carrier status. If that were to happen, would Google/GoDaddy still be allowed to do this?
And his memo also made no mention of the NLRB, but somehow you decided to turn that into an attack against conservatives.
Conservatives have always loved playing the victim while trying to undercut those less well off.
I've always more-or-less identified as a conservative, but have no problems with the NLRB. Are you saying that I can't identify that way? That's like saying that a socialist pushing for universal healthcare is really a communist.
I understand just fine. There are plenty of conservatives that believe in man made climate change; I don't intend to lump them into a label the way the parent post did (although I did that with the "liberal" label to show how absurd that is).
I find it ironic, that conservatives, that have ranted and raved against any sort of labor protections and the NLRB, seem to be rejoicing at pushing a NLRB complaint.
If this is not an example of conservative white male privilege, I don't know what is.
I find it ironic that liberals rejoice when the science concerning global warming is settled, but rant and rave when science that doesn't fit their narrative is presented. http://quillette.com/2017/08/0...
If that's not an example of hypocrisy, I don't know what is.
The FACT is that women ruled tech jobs, until men decided they were too profitable for the little ladies and took over.
When did this occur? When did women stop dominating architecture or civil engineering? When did they stop being the majority of mathematicians and chemist?
I'm not making the argument that they didn't rule these fields because of biological differences, and it very well could be because of misogyny or sexism; but making shit up doesn't make you right.
What does that or radar labs in WW2 have to do with what I wrote or Google, other than reinforcing my point. Women weren't in those jobs not because they weren't capable, but because they weren't allowed.
Plenty. It also directly contradicts what you wrote in that first sentence.

And this one has also started to pop-up:

Everyone seems to want to glance over this, because it's much easier to simply bash Bill Gates.
Things also would have turned out much differently had Gary Kildall been a little bit more forward thinking.

Purism has found itself a new partner on this project -- one of the most important organizations in the Linux community -- The GNOME Foundation
Ubuntu is also one of the most important organizations in the Linux community. How did that work out for them?

Someone please mod this up. In 1993, I couldn't get on the Internet from my house without using dial-up over a long distance phone call.
It's crazy how few people know this. 12 fl oz of orange juice contains slightly more carbohydrates as a can of Coke Classic:
12 fl oz Coke = 36.05
12 fl oz O.J. = 38.4

Considering that modern Germany only goes back 27 years, I'd be hesitant to use that as an example.

This has nothing to do with Net Neutrality.

No I'm being serious!

The study in the article references Type 2 diabetes. The method you're describing seems to more closely describe Type 1.

Sounds like you don't drive. Good for you. Are you suggesting that people that do drive shouldn't need a license?
