I think 'cheap' comes from outsourcing. There are so many producers in China that have been only doing outsourced production, but now they want to sell their own products. But for the moment they dont have brands, dont know the ma

I dont think its a good idea to publicly argue with your boss, even if its a western boss. I dont think they're made of different kind of flesh and psychology works roughly the same way everywhere.

At least you seem eloquent and perfectly coherent to yourself.

I think low quality is only a result of desire to sell cheap, but Chinese producers are capable of meeting high quality standards and out-innovating other countries The bad habits from communism era will disappear eventually

I was always wondering what is the logic behind that - pump oil from underneath the sea, sell it and buy stock or bonds with the money. Basically trading valuable resources for some paper that may be worth nothing in future.

The Sun is beaming free energy to Earth already. If it's not enough then humans should become extinct as a species unfit to live in Solar system

The system will eventually return to balance, for example few million years after all humans die out. The question is if we can keep it in such balance that allows humans to live. Maybe there's not enough space on Earth for all humans

Very sobering article. But startups are not about building a carbon concentration machine, they need money concentration machine. Thermodynamics don't apply directly here.

Well, if i called my coworker 'girl' in a conversation with her then it would be patronizing and belittling. But when i use 'girl' to refer to a female coworker in an internet discussion, without identifying any person,

i can call my coworkers boys and girls here, it's not relevant - as long as i dont do that when interacting with them. If you feel offended by use of 'girl' or 'boy' in such context then it's your choice, i can

yep, most home appliances are surprisingly easy to repair, the intimidating part is that you never did such repair and have no idea how to go about it. But there's the Internet and you can find instructions on Youtube to fix almost any

And sometimes you just screw your product up by not listening to what customers need, or by assuming that you know it better than them. For now i refused to do custom branches, instead the product is made more and more configurable. And it

Haha My experience has been bit different with medium size companies. Small companies just dont buy any custom-developed software. Medium-sized have the money to pay for custom development, but not for buying SAP. And the executives are ext

yep. worked. Good for her. In the symmetrical situation (man punching a woman in workplace) i cant imagine it would ever work. The guy would have been fired on the spot, and then have his ass beaten some more by lawyers. Bye bye career. Th

Yes, basically agree, i'm just saying that men are trying to avoid responsibility for their actions by behaving like a child. Im not saying this is right, it's just how people behave. Boys just do stupid things to avoid admitting

by rasputnik6502 5y ago
Ok, it really doesnt matter if it's a woman or a man, and some parts of your advice make sense. But i'm not yet into firing anyone, it's just first hints of potential problems. You know, nothing really happened, some technic

Too little we know about Dick. Apart from the fact that he touched the hair of his coworker and made some personal remarks. Then when the woman asked him to stop he couldn't, he couldn't just apologize and stop because this would

i dont think this is relevant, she's not the only female developer in the team and i have rather a positive rapport with everyne else. It's just how the normal work situation becomes twisted into personal, full of self-defense and

Probably because of age difference, she's much younger than me. And also because of the way she behaves - i perceive it as a bit childish/immature But yes, i'm afraid i might be wrongly accused and would have a hard time defe

Nice story. It takes some experience and self knowledge to identify what is a joke and what is bullying. Most men just want to be liked, seem witty and funny, and sometimes are just going a too far to show off. But there's a group of p
