I said that writing a story about being a stellar performer and being held back by a manager who doesn't want to lose you because you make them look good does not equate to a "GRIPPING STORY ABOUT EXPLOSIVE SEXUAL HARASSMENT."
And I'm part of the problem?
The problem sir is a lack of integrity, scope, and truth. We should all aspire to these things.
There are a lot of words getting misappropriated and used wrongly - words like "racism." If one were to look up the definition of sexual harassment in the dictionary, one would find that there is a distinction between sexual ADVANCE and sexual HARASSMENT.
IE: Sexual Harassment: unwelcome sexual advances made by an employer or superior, especially when compliance is made a condition of continued employment or advancement.
1. Apparently the boss did not make sex a condition of continued employment. 2. Her first response should have been to say, "This discussion makes me uncomfortable, and I would prefer not to talk about your private life." That would have signaled sexual harassment - at which point, if he continued, he would be sexually harassing her.
The rest of her "explosive blog" goes on to talk about bog standard industry stuff. People trying to get their boss' job. Bosses "holding her back" so that she couldn't get promoted and would be stuck in their department - which is a pretty standard thing to do to exceptional workers. I'm not assuming that she's exceptional, but that it isn't irregular.
The only "nightmare of sexism" is in the title. The article fails to deliver the gritty, horrifying sexism that I was expecting. Much like my ongoing Star Wars marathon - which has inevitably led to Episodes 1-3 - have made me question my childhood and my love of Star Wars for failing to deliver on the IP.
In an effort to prevent the internet from calling him a fucking retard for posting a story on Slashdot like "Elon Musk is boring,' MsMash followed up the Bloomberg story with the note, "the story is funny and insightful" in an effort to direct viewer opinions. No word yet on whether the attempt to sway public opinion has had any effect, but we'll follow this story to find out."
By the way, 100 marks to Notabadguy for the comment, which is as funny as it is insightful. No need for you fellow readers to decide for yourself, spend those karma points as directed.
What's the point of adding more laws when there's no enforcement? Especially when you're curtailing government power, when government agencies already shit all over the laws in place to restrain them without punishment?
Nearly 56,000 bridges nationwide, which vehicles cross 185 million times a day, are structurally deficient, a bridge construction group announced Wednesday.
Let's see what I can do with this sort of headline.
-Nearly 56,000 projects nationwide are managed by insufficiently trained project managers, the Project Manager Institute announced Wednesday. -Nearly 56,000 unions nationwide, which employ 36 million workers are insufficiently funded, a union advocacy group announced Wednesday. -Nearly 56,000 XYZ nationwide, which are important for ABC reasons, need more money, said a group who's business is XYZ, and who would get most of the money if such money were allocated.
To any interested parties, the Notabadguy Institute would like to note that Notabadguy needs structural investment and more money. Perhaps some of that internet money.
In other news, to no one's surprise, BeauHD continues her unbroken record of being a shitty editor looking for partisan news to throw at the slashdot masses. Thanks for being a cuntwaffle.
Except that the FBI isn't catching rapists by arresting CP customers. They're arresting masturbators. They should arrest child rapists - and everyone involved in the production of CP.
You had me for the first two thirds of your post, but then the words both stopped being words, and stopped being assembled in a fashion resembling a sentence, so your overall thought was lost.
I was expecting to see a correlation or statistic also pointing out the median age of city residents with a trend towards higher infection rates among older population.
You said, "the most successful companies are those with the best access to resources, not those with the most limited access to resources. Labor is a resouce."
I'd counter:
Best access != cheapest. The most successful companies are those with the best access to resources, not those with the CHEAPEST resources. Labor is a resource. Impacting the valuation of a resource isn't synonymous with the quantity in existence or available of a resource.
What kind of hack news site PICKS UP AN UNFOUNDED RUMOR...then runs a story on the unfounded rumor just to discredit the author of the rumor based on previous rumors.
What..the fuck kind of news for nerds is this gossipy whining?
As a Texan, where in the hell are you getting your information that "[sic] in Texas...everyone can smoke in public along with most businesses being smoker-friendly indoors."
As a New Yorker, is this propaganda that you get spoon-fed by your nanny state? Did you copy/paste that from a ministry-approved pamphlet?
Because my Texas-approved pamphlet says that New York is full of people who believe guns belong only in the hands of criminals, the citizens want to pay more taxes to expand government control over every aspect of their lives, and that the only good soda is the kind that has been sized, measured, and received a stamp of government approval.
Jesus - I just paid a visit to CNN, and their front page "news" article about Trump nominating a Supreme Court justice was full of shit like this:
"It was a sweet moment of vindication for the Republican Party -- especially its social conservative and evangelical wings who had defied expectations that they would desert Trump over his three marriages and often vulgar tone. Whatever he said, and whatever he did, conservatives clung on to the tiger's tail, convinced Trump would deliver them a Supreme Court pick they could get behind. Looking on were Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan, savoring their reward."
"But the President is also known to place great value in someone's appearance and might have concluded that Gorsuch, tall, fit with a square jaw and immaculately cropped gray hair looks the part of a Supreme Court Justice."
That's why I consider CNN to be as fake news-y as anyone else. I want to read fucking NEWS. I don't want interpretations of what the people might have been thinking, or derogatory assumptions, or portrayals of any sort. I just want news.
I think Windows Defender is better than any of the AV out there - and that this signifies that MS has finally found its core competency. It needs to get out of the OS business and stick to AV.

Holy balls, modded into troll-land for pointing out that there are legal definitions of words, and that we should use them. You're next t0rkm3.
Jesus - that's what you got out of that?

Drawing parallels between a bank vault full of money and a counterstrike chat lobby..... ..... ...
That's enough for any sane person to realize the argument is irrelevant.

That would be when you're a slave and bonded to an Honored Matre.
Except that he's not from America, so....

Yes. They are called book signings and book tours.

As an American that played Rugby in college, I sympathize - seeing millions of Americans go ballistic over a watered down version of Rugby is sad.

He's asking for you know...scientific and research purposes.
Yes they count. Some giant anti-virus needs to clean and reboot that system.

Jodka - you misspeak or misunderstand:

I'd counter:
Best access != cheapest. The most successful companies are those with the best access to resources, not those with the CHEAPEST resources. Labor is a resource. Impacting the valuation of a resource isn't synonymous with the quantity in existence or available of a resource.
BeauHD is some next level shitposting though.

Or...you can also find 3G towers everywhere that is not a major metropolitan area. Like the country. Where...lots of people still live.
That's me. With Verizon. Now.
