Where I went to school, they put all of the effort into the kids who were failing and if you were doing well, you got no help because hey you seem to be doing ok. Results? The kids who were failing still failed because no matter how much te

This is largely true but I know there are employers who do care and who are loyal to their employees. It's all a matter of people and who you are dealing with.

Those are really the same for all practical purposes. Intangible types of value belong in philosophical discussions, not economics.

Yup, this is absolutely the case. Consent in order to count as consent has to be clearly affirmative, freely given, specific, informed, unambiguous and can be withdrawn. https://gdpr-info.eu/art-7-gdpr/

'A "directive" is a legislative act that sets out a goal that all EU countries must achieve. However, it is up to the individual countries to devise their own laws on how to reach these goals.'

Sure it will, just not for the people doing the work. If a consultant push themselves harder to squeeze out that last percent, their company makes more money.

It seems every time that England and its neighboring countries create any form of legislation regarding the internet, it's in an authoritarian direction. It's distasteful and gives me a bad feeling about these places. People shoul

Good point. That said, in many countries employee protection is solid enough that people would not need to worry. If within the EU, then GDPR regulations could also lead to pretty massive fines if a supposedly anonymous survey turned out no

Interesting. Looks like a rising trend since the last financial crises. The effect of corona seems to be limited to a dip around the beginning of the pandemic, presumably due to uncertainty. No great resignation wave though, judging by the

Meanwhile I've thought about quitting and then also quit a whole bunch of times. Business as usual over here. (Turns out the grass is pretty much the same in most places.)

I've interviewed quite a few people in order to assess their technical skills. Here are some takeaways: 1) I look at skills, not grades. 2) I look at skills, not which university someone went to. 3) I look at skills, not weather or not
