Whilst the journalistically juicy part of the story is the relationship between the crazy founders wife and Horvath, there could be more points about sexism that didn't make it in to the story, after all - she was hired in part to deal with this issue.
Anyway, I decided to break with form and RTFA. It's not about sexism, it's about one of the founders and his wife being bonkers and victimising the woman, she probably has a good case of constructive dismissal.
The hula thing is a red herring and this amounts to victim bashing.
Too right, what next, dancing and showing their ankles? Parties and alcohol clearly need to be banned.
Note: you changed "were hula hooping" to "were encouraged to gyrate their bodies".
Drunk people are often embarrassing, but the uncomfortableness that is embarrassment is something that a reasonable adult puts up with when they see that the other people are having harmless fun.
To prove evolution false, look for but never find any proof of genetic mutations.
Oops, we found them, many times. Antibiotics resistant mutations of bacteria that weren't resistant before is probably the best example of evolution and Darwinism.
50 people getting a split of $19b is seen as a bad thing because it "increases inequality". Why?
That statement is beyond dim, do you not understand what the definition of inequality is?
How many decades of there being no "trickle-down effect" do you need?
Let me put it simply, rich people redistribute wealth from poor people to rich people by getting them to create goods and services for the lowest wage that they can get away with and the profits get paid to rich shareholders and directors.
Inequality is some people being substantially more wealthy than others.
The level of incompetence with these sites is staggering, they kept all of the coins online available to steal when most of the coins should have been kept off-line, un-networked.
That one simple action would have averted MtGoxs half billiion dollar theft.
Bitcoin is completely traceable, every transaction is recorded in the transaction log which is 100% available to anyone who wants it (it comes with the main client).
So, why isn't anyone tracing the stolen bitcoins? crowd-source, pay a knowledgeable programmer already.
The wallet numbers where even supplied, there should be a honorable blocking system put in place by all exchanges and banks to refuse transactions from those wallets and downstream wallets from them.
Irvine explains. It's like mayonnaise left out on the counter. The surface will crust over, but the inside of the clump still looks like mayonnaise, she explains.'"
Latest data from the Commons Environment Audit Committee warns that up to 50,000 people each year are meeting a premature death in the UK thanks to air pollution, with an annual health care bill of up to £20.2 billion. The biggest culprit? Transport, responsible for 70 percent of pollution in towns and cities.
That's the UK, the pollution in China is worse by orders of magnitude, literally millions of people a year will be dying there from lung diseases.
People don't take traffic pollution seriously because they can't see it, even though the number of deaths caused dwarfs vehicle accident deaths.
Perhaps MS shouldn't shit all over gamers by paying game companies to release their games for xbone only and not PC.
Stupid MS, crapping on your own customers.
That and the fact that games companies keep ruining great games with crap ports and then don't fix those problems even when they're told about them. Is it so hard to allow fully configurable keyboard mapping, including 2 actions to one key like what fucking happens when you use a controller, lazy fucking dipshits.
But Slashdotters are rabidly pro-nuclear. It doesn't matter how many fucked up nuclear accidents there were in the past, they seem to think today's humans are magically better and won't make any more mistakes with nuclear power.
Since when was security mutually exclusive with openness?
It's pretty obvious that Google has refused to give users the optional security permissions that they would like to have control of.
It's daft that you have to root your phone in order to be able to increase the security.
And just because Apple have (A) good security and (B) a crazy degree of control freakery, doesn't mean that everyone else with good security needs to be a control freak too which is some in these threads are insinuating.
NSA brought gchq in on. This because the y couldn't do it themselves (5th amendment etc.). So they have gchq do the dirty work and then gchq shares the intelligence. Welcome to the new USA.
That would be ECHELON you are referring to. Except you obviously missed that news that's been coming out for the last year about NSA spying on Amercicans regardless. What do you think NSA are storing in their $1,500,000,000 data centre, how many Terabytes does $1.5 billion buy?
I was using the groups aspect of it until it started hassling me every few hours to upgrade it... but the permissions had changed to wanting access to pretty much everything on the phone.

Take-away by drone.
Post by Drone.
Milk / groceries by drone.
Self-driving electric taxis.
I'm surprised the fast food chains don't use robots.
The future will an interesting sight. Perhaps the taller blocks of flats will have serving hatches for drones to use.
And then the resources will run out and we'll all be proper f****d according to NASA (Or we'll learn to recycle).
Yeah, because unlike drones, people never crash their vehicles.
