Nods - our company at the moment is considering hiring a sales person to help out for the sole reason that we won't feel guilty if we have to fire them. True stuff.
It looks like they won't be waiting tables either as there likely will be contact with a computer in the cash register.
Seriously, I am signing a new contract today and did exactly this, blacked out the bits I didn't like and insisted they be re-worded. I got 'direct and in-direct competition' changed to 'direct competition' in terms of the restrictions placed on me after leaving the company.
We often forget what is was like not knowing the first thing about computers and the buying decisions we made then. PC People of the lowest common denominator don't know that a Macintosh is a "real" computer just like they think Internet Explorer is the internet. These same people look at me blankly when I tell them that their hard drive actually contains files and folders. Their brains simply can't cope.
So many times I've seen people choose PC's over Macs for this reason...
Surely being pro google and in favor a decision they made is a topic suitable for the halls of Slashdot? Oh, and I missed the bit in my post where there was racism, I simply hold a different opinion that the majority. Does that make me a racist?
The point of view I was trying to express could be viewed metaphorically, what if a group of Iraqi soldiers drove onto a US military base and told everybody they were free and no longer had to suffer under a democratic government.
Such a liberal application of freedom of speech in China might have catastrophic consequences, undoubtedly the civil war that could erupt would spill over into many neighboring countries. Just as distributing pornography out in US schools in the name of free speech isn't a terribly swift idea, neither is disturbing Chinas' delicately balanced society.
It's not googles' fault China is tight so fisted with the media and it's not its responsibility to change that, that is up to the chinese people.
Just like we don't like our views imposed on us, please allow the chinese the same respect.
If these kids are anything like my little sister, the chances of them agreeing to have their chat conversations monitored or profiled are slim to none.If these kids are anything like my little sister, the chances of them agreeing to have their chat conversations monitored or profiled are slim to none. They will simply go else where to chat in private.
Personally I insist that my entire family be blindfolded and have ear plugs inserted while I sit down for a movie (as to not break any copyright laws) seems fair doesn't it?

And what is stopping a dubious individual from borrowing one of these tokens?
Let me get this straight... If I fix my neighbors computer, does my employer now own my neighbor?
