It simply amamzes me that all these people can claim to have read the article and not know the NOS were indeed ranked. Then they go on to criticize the poster that he was indeed wrong. Whatever happened to double checking before you disagree?
Companies CAN do this, but they aren't required to do so. Its usually done as a convience to the employee. Anyone that exercises stock options can take the stock if they want and run.
One debate class too many? I think he was providing a hypothetical psychological explanation for this guy's paranoia. Just because the guy reiterated a point doesn't necessary mean that he actually believes that point. He could be emphasizing it to make himself sound more credible. Funny that you should notice one tactic of argument and ignore another...
This is a bunch of fluff. Basic math? Try first year accounting. This guy obviously doesn't understand GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), which the SEC requires all publicly traded companies adhere to (not to mention the IRS). That's the whole point of having audited financial statements. This guy has received far more attention than he should have. He's a crackpot.
There is nothing new here. From the 1980's this has come up many times. There were many cases on the East Coast for those that used there VISA's for cash advances in Atlantic City. Since the credit card agreements were in states that had laws which prohibit loaning money for gambling, the card users could legally not be held responsible for the charge. There is much case law on this if you really want to investigate it (and perhaps learn how to cheat your bank).
Couldn't agree more. If people want to make a website to put down microsoft, why not microsoftsucks.com or microsoft-blows.net or something similar (do these exist?!?). It's not necessary to change from a nicely ordered system to chaos just to achieve your ability to use someone elses name/trademark.
Joker.com appears to be alright, however I registered some domains with them well over 36 hours ago and still don't have access to enter/change the dns info. After writing them, they said that they hadn't even billed my credit card yet and thus couldn't give me access. Shouldn't this all be automatic? Maybe in a week or so I'll actually get to use my domains!!
