I love the one politician that dares frame this as “helping bars” when the “SC Venue Crisis” rages on to this day. Thank God they did away with an archaic unenforced law, however. Go ahead and give yourselves a round of applause!

We source our intern-to-Junior pipeline from a good state school from which we have a few graduates. We have about an 80% placement rate for the interns. We’ve yet to have any abusive or bad hires, this being a fully remote company. For Sen

I drive a Honda Pilot. I can haul my kids and their friends to soccer practice. I can fold down the seats and haul 2x4x8’ or 10’ sticks of PVC for a weekend project. I can tow my boat to the ramp or pull a trailer if I need more material th

My state introduced Blue Alerts for crimes against police. I’ve been woken up at 0200 for an officer shot 200 miles away, as if I’m going to gather up a posse and ride on the scallywags responsible.

In the Iraqi case Saddam was known for a similar strategy to North Korea. High-trust families, not persons, are identified and groomed for positions. Of course, if your son disgraced the regime with failure or betrayal both they and their f

Is it just me or do places that have “no violence against staff” warnings tend to have the rudest staff? It’s starting to become a signal that the place is best avoided. Unfortunately that avoidance doesn’t work too well for TSA or my local

I work almost exclusively in small (<100 employees) firms, usually no more than 20 developers, and it’s a complete mix here too. One firm might have the most dialed in effective team you’ve ever dreamed of. The next four are average or O

We used to prosecute cheating and plagiarism for the moral failure that it is. If we allow lying, cheating and stealing - why bother being a schmuck that does the work.

Buddy of mine runs a cash only bar and grill. The costs to handle cash are fairly low. He bought one of those fancy cash counters like they have at the bank for a few hundred. He also bought one of those cheap little ATMs for perhaps $500 a

Not OP here - but for me it’s the open source ecosystem. Java just wins in terms of scope, scale, and stability. I love C# the language, but the ecosystem is a ghetto.

Assuming they can say the water ends at X and the water ends at Y could they not estimate the depth to a good degree of confidence? Roads have a degree of uniformity I would imagine makes this a solvable problem?

I’m from a flood prone, hurricane prone area - there were some painful lessons from Hurricane Andrew, famously the hurricane tie system for buildings in Florida which quickly spread, but in South Carolina they also learned a very important

It may not be usual in Atlanta itself, but living on the Southeastern coast within a mile or two of the water, for 30+ years, it’s a surprisingly common occurrence. I’ve got old photos around of kayaking through downtown Charleston during c

It’s hard to say because I’m not the recruiter nor am I or HR staffer. Historically, typos on a resume are immediately filtered out. Lack of duty to care or some such. We have some type of tooling to filter out obvious AI slop writing. We a

It would seem like a news paper being pro-regime is more of a survival strategy than anything else. Plenty of papers survived the Nazi era and exist today. Nothing unique to be seen in it here.

Use a good recruiter to do the dirty work for you, it’s not cheap but it’s worth the lack of hassle. With that said, at my firm we switched to using an in-house non-technical HR recruiter using nothing but a LinkedIn Job listing and the res

That’s my point, it didn’t work and we did quit shopping there. The prices never really worked out in our favor and the experience of finding a cool product we did truly love only to find it not stocked the following month is awful. It real

The only year I broke even-ish on my executive membership was the year I bought an expensive engagement ring. All other years I (household of 3-4) went below break even. I lived 1/4th of a mile across the highway from them even. I just

> How do independent researchers do this with legal safety? In my experience it’s usually foreign nationals from third-world countries doing drive-by beg-bounty testing. Presumably they don’t much consider legality.

Not to mention the entitlement of startups to just flaunt laws and regulations. Still kills me to this day Uber and AirBNB running illegal billion dollar operations. I suppose one can at least say Uber mitigates drunk driving tendencies. As

It’s not as if Democrat run California can build a railway these days… This problem is beyond parties and trying to play partisan politics about it only prolongs the hurt.

You say that but I was a Class of 2013, aka during the massive hiring boom of the teens. I tutored a friend of mine with a Ds get Degrees mentality who eventually graduated and now works an ass-in-seat job for Booz Allen or one of those typ

As an American, I always hear all these weird stories about New York and its subway system. All the random busker type nonsense, the petty crime and the “mugger wallet” type jokes. Not to mention the major crimes that make the news. I’d rat

The “Oklahoma City Fertilizer Bomb” style bomb is heavily watched. ANFO just isn’t a good vector for a lone wolf anymore. With that said, any GWOT veteran with explosives training could make enough HME to make a mass casualty event à la OKC
