If you can convince a large, well-paying customer to push on this issue, the pressure could eventually make its way through management. Worth a shot, anyway.
If they're setting your hours by explict (verbal) instruction, don't some states allow you to bring it up with the labor board to get back pay (as long as you have some record of the hours you worked)?
All it's really doing is preserving the virginity of young intelligent males and keeping them strapped to their desks for their free beer, gym memberships, and office games.
Silicon Valley needs to up its game. With blackjack. And hookers! It would solve the virginity problem, anyway.
He found that one effective way to get girls to feel passionate about security was to create an emotional connection with the subject: e.g. the shock and distress of seeing your drone hacked or your password exposed
Right -- the old 'shock and awww' approach. I guess it's true -- an effective way to induce passion (an emotion) in humans is to, you know, describe things using emotionally-laden descriptions. Protip -- some parents use a variation of this when telling a child to "Use your words."
It's also worth exploring the question of why Twitter hasn't already disabled these accounts, and why intelligence agencies haven't done anything about them, if they're so easy to find.
...
Why not infiltrate them, honeypot them... ?
Maybe that's why the accounts weren't actively shut down before -- they're something like low-hanging fruit when it comes to surveillance.
I'd stick with Costco. They have a very member-oriented attitude -- extra year warranty on electronics, generous return policy if you have any problems with the product and can't make headway with the manufacturer.
My first question along those lines, though, is how a phone that can do this at these frequencies, has such generally mediocre audio quality for *phone calls* over frequencies *within* the range of human hearing in the first place. It's as if the audio hardware wanted to have its own special communication mechanism that the meat-creatures couldn't hear, in return for having to play autotune and ringtones for most of its life.
Renting cheap apartments, maybe buy a car. Of course, that means rent goes up, and used car prices.
One culturally-related element of this is that most of the Indians I know in the US, highly value family and education (and properly-prepared food, incidentally). As such, I suspect many H1-B parents are instinctively motivated to apply continuous pressure to the local schools to ensure the curriculum is rigorous and the environment is conducive to learning.
And who knows? The school lunches might improve too.
Then the solution is clear. We must go back in time and prevent publication of current best-selling dystopian fiction, by any means necessary. Live humans can't make it back, so we'll have to build, program, and send (cue music here) a Literminator.
The country was founded by convicts and houses the most poisonous animals on the planet. I bet they put some of that stuff into their submarine technology.

It's all "how do I make it look like Windows 2000?", and "why do you keep changing things to make it look better?"
And "why isn't there Unicode support?"
Exactly! Just take Friday off and come in on Saturday. That way, you should only have to work, I dunno, maybe one and a half times as hard.

You know things have degenerated when suing is the *easy* option.
And a dark day when a text-only technology website is behind the curve for, you know, text.

I know you didn't mean it in quite this way, but ... yeah.

Rice cakes? Wait a minute, hey, I've been setting my drinks on these!
Everybody must get stoned?

It had to be an excuse and they were really pulling it over for an illegitimate reason.
Because if you're a beat cop and want an easy target, you pick ... Google?
If they didn't value education (at some level, at least), you'd be teaching them English first.
There's also this recent example of an entirely non-awkwardly integrated product placement.

He's obviously never heard of "quis custodiet ipsos custodes". And who will guard the crocodiles?
I dunno. Coast Guard?
But since corporations have apparently bought the right to do it, why not crazy idiots?
Sorry, no license term changes allowed without a receipt.
How can these immigrants be ILLEGAL when the countries named allow them entry? That seems like a giant flaw in your point.
Maybe they didn't allow the Syrian TSA to go through their stuff when they were crossing the border? I'll bet that's at least a misdemeanor.

Working for free is ridiculous. Good thing he's getting paid.
