Forced pace is a huge problem for videos. If you encounter a paragraph that you already know all about in an article, you can skip it. If you encounter a section of a video like that, it's harder to skip so I'll end up trying to s

If a majority of the population doesn't exercise prudence, then it sounds like there is a very good chance for a restaurant to get back to full occupancy.

if that was true- why bother with regulation in the first place?

by jonfw 6y ago
Many of these commenters aren't against the act of testing the regulation- they're against the regulation- and they see this blog post as support towards that regulation.

I work almost exclusively with openshift- it's very popular for enterprise stuff. We've got a lot of clients in banking and insurance and those sorts of industries- where you need your technology to scale but you're not reall

It sounds like two people have some difficult circumstances to work with one another in and are handling it quite well. I don't think it needs to be 'dealt with'. Unless you're their manager or have a close personal rela

IBM, for example, doesn't do yearly raises- you either have to go out of your way to negotiate (i.e. threaten to leave) or you have to apply to go to the next band. I've also seen this at Cisco, and I've heard that Amazon doe

> They're cheaper, willing to work longer hours So now we've hit the real root of the problem. If you expect significantly more money than competitors in your role- than ageism may not be why it's getting harder to find jo

In my experience, a flat org-chart goes a long way towards establishing a less hierarchical culture. I've definitely had some discussions about salary with my friends at the company, although they're very guarded. A lot has to be

Everybody on our team, minus leadership (10-15 years+ of experience) has the same title and same level of 'seniority'. And our team hires people fresh out of boot camp, and they also hire people working on their second master&#x27

I don't think anybody has figured out how to perfectly make salaries match skill/experience. But there is certainly a correlation. The job opening that I applied for cast quite a wide net. There are people who have masters degrees

by jonfw 6y ago
Because often the salary isn't decided when they make the job opening, the salary is decided when they make the offer. At my company, for instance, there are a number of us who were hired at the same time under the same position. But w

I spent a couple of years running an extremely minimal arch I3 install. It was fantastic doing things within my normal workflow, but when you have to introduce new tools, new network requirements, etc. it takes a fairly significant amount o

I agree, there is still plenty of money invested in product placements in long form content, or sponsored 'review' articles. It's not so much that they don't write copy, it's that they try to avoid telling you that

Is this a mental limitation, or is it a simple defense mechanism against diving into rabbit-holes of thought with no end and no real productivity? It seems much easier to come to the conclusion that .99999... and 1 are different numbers, is

This is the section of my config that sets up using the clipboard for tmux buffers. It won't work as is unless you're using both fish shell and Mac, but this should at least give you some good keywords to google and find documenta

Companies like Home Depot and IBM aren't usually considered 'too big to fail', so these aren't really great examples for the point you're trying to make.

You're not giving the whole picture if you don't mention that IBM's market cap has seen very significant decline over that time period. IBM has been producing insane cash-flow over this period and their strategy was to pay ou

What industry are you in that people aren't adopting web apps? At my work we use a ton of web-apps. Chrome-books offer nothing but web apps and they're doing pretty well these days.

Those people who need their chromosomes analyzed are part of the 0.07-0.05%, not the 1-2% I imagine we would agree about the importance of respectful social interaction with those who don't fit within gender norms. I'm probably on

1-2% includes people who have extremely minor deviations from the norm and requires you to use the most strict biological definitions of 'male' or 'female' that we could possibly use. The vast majority of these 1-2% are
