^^^ If I had mod points. Had the same experience. I thought it was funny in a "can you believe this?" way at first, but was clearly in the realm of anger by the time the movie started. It 30 minutes in my case.
Every Indian developer I've hired since 1986 when I founded a company that did DBase apps has been horrifically under qualified despite great lies on their resumes.
I think the problem is with the hiring manager that isn't capable of properly vetting candidates.
Ya I guess not, as indicated by the several posts I've made on the topic. I'm clearly not thinking about it at all. Good thing society has people like you otherwise everyone, including myself, would continue to wander around in a moral haze, oblivious.
Along with skill level and software sector, developer salaries also vary widely by where they live in the world. A web developer in North America earns a median income of $73,600 USD per year, compared with the same developer in Western Europe whose median income is $35,400 USD. Web developers in South Asia earn $11,700 in South Asia while those in Eastern Europe earn $20,800 per year.
Yes, and that's meaningless if you aren't going to factor in cost of living.
You want to see how the end of the road looks? Take a look in the UK.
I don't even get your point. Because there are "liberal" college students acting like 'tards... what? We have to vote Trump, call all media fake, embrace alternative facts, and drop our liberal values?
The fact that those kids are idiots doesn't do anything to shake my values. You see, I don't need to be one extreme or the other, and I'm capable of picking my beliefs from all over the spectrum.
Well I can god damm tell you that Obama ordering the FBI not to ever use the term "radical Muslim" didn't help make terrorism go away.
It also didn't hurt. Do you think when it comes to the feet to the ground anti-terror operations, the working name you give the enemy matters?
If I had to guess he's probably trying to avoid alienating moderate Muslims. Whether or you agree with that, it doesn't sound like a crazy left-wing act to me. The fact that you are so bent out of shape about it would lead me to believe you have some other axe to grind.
You're both 'tards for defining your world as 2 extremes. Liberalism (e.g.) is a broad idea, and the fact that a very, very small subset of (loud) college "kids" do things in the name of liberalism isn't a reflection on classic liberal values.
Have the guts to call good things good, and bad things bad and not paint yourself all the same color. If you find yourself mysteriously agreeing with ALL or most of the points of your tribe, really take a deep look and see what's motivating you.
That's the theory, yet every employer I've worked for (tech) has decided to let poor performers hang on until a larger "downsizing". For the most part I don't see people get fired in tech.
The thing that struck home is a survey of STEM new grads, that shows a ~0.7 disparity as well. Seems like that's the most apples to apples comparison there could be, before things like family and work home balance start to factor in.
I guess she could be lying about all of her data though.
Your job performance is the followup "coding test".
That'd be fine, except it's extremely hard, labor intensive, and legally risky to "fire" someone. I'm not describing the way it should be, only the way it is.
You are correct that the sun is not infinite, but in relation to humans and their timescales, it is effectively infinite.
Look, have fun with your conceptual arguments, but there are regions on earth that have shortages of potable, non-contaminated, fresh water. Water is infinite in the same way diamonds are infinite. You just need to be able to strip and micro filter the substrate of the earth's crust down a few hundred miles.
Yeah, it can be depleted faster than natural processes fix. In most non-desert climates, though, that's almost literally impossible with our current agricultural practices and levels of technology. California is what happens when you try to farm land that can't support the load.
I guess it's some product of the "fake news" that clean drinking water is a problem in so many places in the world. Duly noted.
So what? Water is an effectively infinite global resource and it isn't ever actually consumed (i.e. lost).
Non-contaminated fresh water is not an infinite resource in any sense of the term. Water is only an infinite resource if you also assume energy (to decontaminate and desalinate) is also an infinite resource (it isn't).
You might think employers have a right to communicate, but depending on the labor laws, this is not necessarily true.
It doesn't follow common sense that the employers would not even be able to communicate their side of the story to employees. I honestly don't know the law, but this just doesn't ring true.
As an employee, wouldn't you want to hear both sides of the story?
No your fucking boss does not have the right to spout political propaganda at you every time you start work.
I guess you've never had a job then? Employers can say whatever they want to their employers as long as it's not harassment or discriminatory (under the law). And the employee is free to end their employment if they don't like it.
If the boss has that right, you should have the right to punch them in the face if you do not like it.
Yes, I can see you are a well adjusted reasonable person. It's perfectly normal to punch people in the face when you don't agree with them. I take solace in the fact that you are either a harmless troll, or you'll soon be incarcerated where I won't need to worry about you.

The last time I went to a movie I brought earplugs (and could still hear everything perfectly). This is a major reason I avoid theaters.
The most effective way to prevent these indian abusers of H-1B visa
It's not the immigrant that's to blame here, it's the companies importing them for cheap(er) labor.
Making America great again by "encouraging low- and mid-level jobs to go to American workers"?
Yes, because that's the type of employment for which most of the population is qualified, in any country.
Every Indian developer I've hired since 1986 when I founded a company that did DBase apps has been horrifically under qualified despite great lies on their resumes.

Of course they will, but this takes it from an open door to one where you at least need to knock.
you just aren't paying attention

Yes very narrow viewpoint I know.

No, I'm not. I don't even know what you are saying or what's going on inside your paranoid brain. Have fun with that.
Fuck them. Fuck the SJWs from Silicone Valley. The Big Quake can't come soon enough if you ask me.
So you think that Twitter making efforts to quell bot posts during an election is a conspiracy by the "left"? ...
Sigh

Is it better to be a chicken that lives for 2 (?) years and then is slaughtered (hopefully painlessly), or to never exist?
But not force them upon you....see you didn't read that bit. Moron.
Lol. Let me quote,
Uber drivers in Seattle were forced to choose whether or not to listen to the company-produced podcasts
Note that is says forced to CHOOSE. I can see you didn't comprehend that bit. Moron.

Uber does have the right to communicate their side of the story to their drivers ... somehow this is controversial because ... they used their app?
