Even in Australia, where the vast majority is pro vaccination, do we also have people 'choosing' not to.
Even though the AMA is very vocal in its derision of such a choice, and continuously shows there is no link between vaccinations and things like autism.
In my eyes, if you work with children, there is no excuse - you should be mandated to be vaccinated - just make it part of your background check.
Removes the need for IT staff - who exactly manages your cloud? If its you, congratulations, you are the IT staff.
Just because the hardware has become 'not your problem', does not mean their is that much less to do - as a system's engineer looks after web infra and who just started getting in to AWS, my focus has shifted from doing backups, looking after hardware maintenance, out of hours outages etc, to continuing ensuring 5 9's up time, automating the infra, and...organising out of hours outages where I can for the important things Amazon needs to do behind the scenes.
So yeah, almost the same job desc minus a bit of hardware babysitting.
"We can't go much above 18% in our coders [Facebook has 7,185 total employees] if there's only 18% coming into the workplace."
Umm your total workforce is not the same size as the amount of students coming in to the workplace.
Of course your gender ratio could change with those students available and looking for work.
Re the resource usage issue - isnt IE's low(ish) resource usage only due to the fact that alot of what it needs to render a page is actually in the OS and thus loaded already before it needs it?
Do the student bookstores have anything to do with setting the price?
Is it not the publishers setting a large % of the price?
Amazon can just beat them over the head with its purchasing power until the price per unit becomes acceptable.
Why not re-jig these student bookstores to be the 'staffed customer order pickup and drop-off locations' for Amazon, instead of what sounds like replacing them with a new storefront?
Whats wrong with JUST Google hangouts? All you need is a browser, and a webcam.
You can set $OS to auto login and start Chrome (in kiosk mode, fullscreen even!) at the Plus login page - living facility staff might need to enter a username/password combo for the patient is all, and log out once done. This should be able to be easily managed in a spreadsheet.
On the client side, there is a Hangouts app for both iOS and Android.
I need my glasses to read detail - the only way I am going to be able to see is with giant letters. Putting some software on to a box on my dash doesnt change distance from eyes to the dash, thus the focal length is the same.
No amount of pixel shifting is going to allow my eyes to focus on it and resolve the image sharply.
this might work for people who are only very slightly farsighted.
Just because there is no suitable replacement should not be grounds for an engineer to work forever!
Which companies are saying that you arent allowed to retire because of no suitable replacements? Name and shame them!
...but look at what happened in Australia (where im posting from).
Laptops were provided, but there was no real support. Not all the teachers knew how to use them or fix any errors that occurred - training was an issue.
And unless they have control over what textbooks are being provided, as others have said, it doesnt really save any money.
Source - my sister went through this in the Australian high school system about 5 years ago.
I see they have a pilot school that did the change 2 years ago, so maybe they learnt some things, but the all digital school is just a buzzword right now I feel.
If they can pull this off, it could possible be a great example for more advanced economies on how to do it affordably.
Dependant on money from cable companies for these ratings things?
Is this a form of shooting themselves in the foot or biting the hand that feeds them?
Non-american here - in Australia, we have Foxtel, Optus and Austar - the latter 2 just replay Foxtel's offering's IIRC.
Due to this non-competition (the way Rupert likes it), you dont get much for the $AUD you give them.
Some mobile phone screen resolutions are very high, a mobile phone has a screen ~5inches long - should it then not be 1/15 the price of the 75inch version of the movie? Instead of $1.99, it should be $1.00
maybe this will show the game makers that charging $90+ for a half finished game isnt a great idea when their competitors are charging $10 for a better product thats not this years version of a hashed out tired franchise. the competitor might make less with each sale, but sell a lot more to make up for it.
also, shouldnt the market should equalize itself, finding a price point that punters are willing to pay for a quality game?
in mobile-land, i believe thats currently $3-5.
Many recruiters and HR departments only accept resume's in MS Word format.
To deliver your resume in any other format is to render it immediately inconsiderable, even if it is 'universal'.
How does his 'get over it and let it go' mentality gel with the current issue of Microsoft lobbying the UK government to not just go with the ODF standard, but to have a choice between it and its own OOXML? Office 2013 supports it, so whats the loss for them? If a department was going to buy MS Office for usability reason's it could still continue to do so. If the same department was not going to buy MS Office for usability or feature reasons, it will continue not to do so. Supporting the format is no skin off Microsoft's back as it does so already.

Can you make charcoal out of any cellulose? Such as bamboo? Banana plants? Other quick growing plants?
At this point, why have both? Could you not just extend the ChromeCast to have the ChromeBit's features?
Can you get fast private connections to Dropbox? Google? AWS has directconnect - you can get Gbps connections to move backups to Glacier
Zotac GeForce GTX 980 AMP! Omega - http://www.zotac.com/products/...
but why restrict it to the Moto G handset only? Surely it's a software client?
