On a game console (starting with PS4/xbone) a game ships on a slow optical media and needs to be installed on the hard drive to be played. The install happens without user interaction in background. This can be done in two steps - inst

Unless all the immigrants live in the fields and in the woods, they increase housing demand, likely on the lower end if they are as poor as you describe, and push the whole market up.

Yes, I don't think he was being serious in almost all his videos I've seen. Does not he ask Zelensky to kiss Joe Biden for him in some?

I'd imagine if they recorded an audio answer they were not being serious, so makes sense you found it weird. Bellingcat claims a lot of things with no evidence, it's not a serious source IMO.

What's the answer? It doesn't play audio for me.

Sure, and you should not be lying though.

Even if we consider "Wagner" to be "neo-nazi" with no evidence what so ever, as you noticed yourself, it's a PMC, so it's not a part of the military. And the ultimatum confirms that (you cannot demand people wh

>So why would the interview be a predictor of job performance? Because most companies want to hire people who perform well and not hire people who don't perform well. They have variable success at that but even some fly-by-night sta

Indeed, it's a bet that you, an outsider, know better than the interviewers that you will not be fired after the first performance review (note that it says nothing about your general competency, just the performance metrics of this pa

It depends on the company, I guess. The first-round interviews, which are the subject of this topic, that I have seen, were all Fizz Buzz level to cull the obviously incompetent.

There had been working ternary computers made in the USSR[1] 60 years ago, though, as far as I know, they still had binary memory (2 ferrite bits were used to store each "trit") and that was quite a waste. 1. https://en

A brief Google search shows that all the lawyers already have the right to refuse any client, though it comes in the form of answers from lawyers themselves, and they could be lying. What made you think they did not have such a right?

Sorry, the rules don't work like that. Jaywalking with a phone is still jaywalking, same as speeding with a phone is still speeding or littering with a phone is still littering. Here is the definition from Wiki: Jaywalking is the act o

It depends on the state, I guess, in which state you can walk into traffic without paying attention, with or without phone, legally? Please be specific. And yes, I've seen this article in Wikipedia, it forgot to explain how pro-automot

The conversation is about pedestrians walking into traffic while staring in their phones, jaywalking in other words. Please don't try to ad hominem, it just shows that you don't have any arguments of substance and degrades the dis

In every city I've lived in the US jaywalking is actually illegal, perhaps it should be legal and even encouraged in your opinion but until it is - it's your responsibility to follow the rules.

While this is true, I don't see how this is relevant. Auto-wipers detect the changes in optical properties of the windshield, not your ability to see.

by pandaman 3y ago
But "turning on when rainy" is not the way auto-wipers are normally working.

by pandaman 3y ago
Looks like it's a problem with your car and not with the concept of auto-wipers?

by pandaman 3y ago
Auto wipers have two applications: for when you suddenly get water on the windshield, for example a splash from a puddle caused by another car, and for speed attenuation during a rain. Some people can panic when the visibility from the car

I agree, the feedback often makes no sense (this is probably why most companies do not give it to candidates), but if you want it - you can get it from a third party recruiter anyways.

by pandaman 3y ago
If you want feedback - go with third party recruiters, they are eager to collect feedback themselves and the hiring managers share with them more openly than with a random candidate. Of course, there are issues with this way of job search (

All law enforcement is not economical in this approach, when you are pricing only immediate costs. E.g. prosecuting a murderer is a complete loss of hundreds of thousands dollars if not millions. And we are not even getting the victim back
