You forgot the part where someone with limited education and no employment prospects steals a car or holds up a store because they have nothing left to sell and a loan shark threatening them with broken kneecaps. Some unemployment is good f

I once took a job supervising people for a program like this. I don't believe it is a variable solution. The company I worked for was paid by the government and given other benefits (tax credit, reduced red tape, etc) and it was still barel

Because Turnitin is pretty terrible software and there are a lot of false-positives. I remember having to "explain myself" for an essay I wrote where what was copied was direct, cited quotes. It uses word pairs sometimes and will highlight

I also, often, externally display a different emotion to what I am experiencing. For example, I often seem angry when I am actually happy as a pig in mud. I've done a polygraph before in university and the results were mixed (lots of false-

I, personally, find it very difficult to sustain eye contact while I talk to people. The "I know your lying because you won't look me in the eye" myth was 90% of the reason I was always in trouble at school. It's a myth.

In almost every professional context (except those few outlying context which directly relate to sexy, naked, or scantily clad people) this is inappropriate. I just hang my head when I see posts like this. The tech industry has a reputation

I take it you don't travel much. You need to go to very small, very poor and extremely remote villages before you find no internet connections or people who are aware of computers. I have found a grand total of one, ever. I've visited unpow

It's a pain to have a common name sometimes. It's worse when you share it with someone who uses such low tactics. There are thousands of Chris Currans.

Really? I would say trains, buses and cars are really common use cases for mobile data. Every second person I see is watching Youtube or playing around on the internet while they take public transport. It isn't biased data, there is an actu

There is also a "I don't cook" worst case scenario which occasionally hits people hard, social unrest. Try going to a restaurant when the streets are in full riot mode. I had a conversation with a guy who found himself in this exact situati

I work in South Korea as a software developer for an RnD startup. The legal requirement for paid holidays in (most) contracts is 10 paid days plus public holidays. Public holidays are not really considered holidays by many as there is a ver

Ever tried dropping your age from your resume? There is no requirement to put it on. If you get into the interview and the interviewer has an, "Oh, you're not what we're after" moment you know why. In this country that is grounds alone to s
