The flaws in computer software cause damage because people are quick to exploit them. Mother nature is not quite as driven by money and corruption.

They sent me an email telling me my unit "shipped" last July and would arrive July 14-20th. 3 months later it still wasn't here so I sent an email, and the response was basically, "Uh... we expected to ship it to you at

But then the question is, why was she speaking out in favour of github in the first place? She's either currently faced with an unusual situation that doesn't reflect githubs normal behaviour, or she had no credibility in the firs

You're intimidated to talk to her, but she definitely catches your attention. Booth babes are eye candy. If people interact with them, better, but I'm sure the company won't mind if people want to hangout around the booth jus

It must be different in California, because here in Ontario companies are legally required to give at least 2 weeks severance in most instances. If an employer isn't required to do the same in California then there's not much to c
