Nothing. Sure the rich business people are bad also in some way, yet it doesn't compare to the actual oligarchs. There is no way to start a competing business with an oligarch's among other things.

How is that ageism? the older you are the more experience one would expect you to have. If you are over 40 and you learned nothing then what did you do? Younger people that have no experience... well that's to be expected.

You don't. You make a business to business contract. So it's not really employment.

Then I'm curious how do they enforce it. Maybe with US there are some treaties signed, but what about a foreign country that has no treaties with the EU?

don't take my word for it, but I believe that you can only if they have opened a subsidiary in EU. The fine is percent of global sales (not profit).

That's a nice insight but lets see who are the bosses that do the hiring in large companies? They are people that stayed in the same company for 10-15 years. What you wrote looks strange and even silly to them. Otherwise they would hav

Companies want loyalty. Beeing good at what you do has almost no importance above a very basic level. Loyalty is important because they have all kind of internal crap that is not documented, not organized and which you will accumulate if yo

Well I tried it a few times and it's useless. The only reason they are popular now is because companies figured out that they can hire cheap people this way. If you agree to such a test when you have done a lot of these tests in school

Usually they rely on some other mechanism for security. Like you can only access the portal admin page from the intranet or a few IP addresses. That has failed, not the fact that they didn't change the password.

It seems they do it completley in the dark. They think they have information, but they don't. As such, after many "we are doing great!" top level presentations, they just announced layoffs and selling of some divisions and so

Standups (as implemented) or another way management thought they can do the same work without hiring real developers. You can come up with any process you want, if you don't have the people, you have nothing.

That is true. Then you get a recruiter that knows what they are doing only to be met by a company that has no clue what the fuck they're doing. Me and recruiter left confused.

My take: good jobs are not even posted anywhere, they are given to friends and acquaintances. Bad jobs remain open long enough that a recruiter is called.

Communism is the ultimate team play. Even the ones that are not thrilled by the idea, are forced to join (torture, killings). Also in my country, there were almost no private property. When communists came to power the first thing they did

Different cultures: individualism (US) and team play (communism). Team play always wins if done properly.

Samsung smart TV. We had to use it with an external receiver so we set the TV on video input. It works. We turn off the TV, turn it on again, it shows the video input for a brief moment and then hides it with a message that there is no sign

The article completely misses the point. No amount of reasoning will change a manager's mind. They do not push people because they actually think it can be done faster, they push people because software developers are very weak and bec

Open office, very little productivity. Individual office,a lot of productivity. The employer chooses what it wants. I see open office as a request to slack off. I'm still using 100% of my mental energy, but not on productive stuff.
