  1. No, because there's nothing in TFA that suggests what you're suggesting. Are you perhaps confused, and reading a different article?

  2. Any advance from a supervisor is UNWANTED.

  3. Would you advocate the same punishment if it was female looking for sex I wonder?

    Yes, I would. Immediate firing, no questions asked. Completely unacceptable, and if a person doesn't know that, that's just as good reason for letting that person go. Somebody with such poor decision making skills is a liability in many ways.

    Wrong. A boss asking a subordinate to fuck them IS harassment.

    Oh, silly AC. Any boss asking any subordinate to fuck them is harassment.

  6. accused by one of those persons that shout sexism!, racism!, bigotry! around fifty-eleven times a day.

    Do you have any evidence that this is true, or do you just enjoy slandering people for fun?

  7. Any sane company would fire this guy immediately. Uber is liable for not getting rid of him. Hope this woman sues the shit out of them.

  8. What cars? What apps? on Used Cars Can Still Be Controlled By Their Previous Owners' Apps (wtkr.com) · · Score: 1

    This article was woefully lacking on information. I didn't know that this was a thing, and I still don't know what manufacturers, models, this is a thing for. Shitty article.

  9. Re:Globalization vs. Protectionism on Accenture To Create 15,000 Jobs In US (reuters.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    A. "Hate" is not a word to describe broad socio-economic policies. That's childish and indicative of simplistic thinking that is not sufficient to address this subject.
    B. Why protectionism doesn't work would require you to pick up a history book or two.
    C. Globalism has largely brought an increase in the standard of living to millions and millions of people. You're talking about "stagnating salaries" only among the working class in the US. Across the world, standards of living generally increase with global trade.
    D. "Salaries ticked up for the first time since 90s." What salaries, when and according to who? This sounds like something you just pulled out of your ass.

  10. Wireless is not a replacement on Google Fiber Sheds Workers As It Looks to a Wireless Future (engadget.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    For speed, security, and reliability, wireless isn't even close to being a replacement for fiber. Our business only uses wireless for fun stuff for our customers. Our real business is over wired connections, and will be for the foreseeable future.

    Iowa gets a LOT of welfare from the coastal states. The infrastructure there is great. Tons and tons of barely used roads (and bridges, obviously). People in the least dense parts of the state even get fiber to their doors.

    I have seen precisely 1 of them on the roads in NYC

    I would imagine it's tough to see any kind of cars from your basement.

  13. A couple of paragraphs down:

    In an age when AI threatens to become widespread, humans would be useless, so there's a need to merge with machines, according to Musk.

  14. That was a long time ago. Nobody remember back that far.

  15. America is a disaster... on Intel To Invest $7 Billion in Factory in Arizona, Employ 3,000 People (cnbc.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm confused. Trump says that American is a broken, dangerous disaster, but the CEO of Intel says, "America has a unique combination of talent, a vibrant business environment and access to global markets, which has enabled U.S. companies like Intel to foster economic growth and innovation". Which is it? Is American a horrible, horrible place where billionaire's daughters are treated "unfairly", or is it an awesome place where Intel can be formed and grow?

    Wow. I don't know how people like you get so twisted. I've been trying to figure that out for a long time, but I still have no idea. Best of luck to you. Hopefully, you'll have some kind of life experience that will help you get your head straight. Sounds like you have a lot of problems that you're not willing to admit to yourself.

    If ignoring racists and xenophones makes me "out of touch with mainstream America", then so be it. But, I think you're wrong. Most of America isn't racist and xenophobic. The people in the middle seem to think that they're still the majority. Unfortunately for them, they're not.

  19. I think it's more accurate to say that religious people tend to be *obsessed* with sex.

    No, it was that the companies were suffering losses for no reason . There's no known threat, nor has there ever been, from the system the US has of allowing people into this country. We already do "extreme vetting", and have for many years.

    A "message" that we should go back to racial and gender discrimination is not a message I'm interested in, thanks.
