This is a rehash of his last article. Still no facts and figures. The problem is who decides that the brilliant jerk fits in? I've seen it far too often in offices. Someone who is very competent at their job gets fired because some ego driv

Dickens got paid by the word. I would expect a lot more code that does nothing.

Wikitravel suffered from having ads (commercial) while internet brands did just enough to keep the site running. For some reason applying innovation or new features to wikitravel just didn't happen. Wikipedia suffers from a lot of issues in

The article sounds like the author didn't like people listening to someone other than himself. The writer didn't say what his input or benefit was to this outfit. I know who I would have fired. Firing to keep things running smoothly is easy

I wonder why Bloomberg has such a problem with the NY & NJ Port Authority? Oh that's right, Bloomberg is the Mayor and would rather give the contract to someone more cough _deserving_.

The sliders for Storage and Data transfer would be more helpful if I could choose lower value. More people work with Gigabytes than Terrabytes.

More than half of the interviews that I have had involve having to impress someone with the ritual. Unfortunately the interviews that require something of a skill test or the chance to have a chat about something that isn't complete BS are

It's not really a grey area. There have been politicians who have failed to be present enough days in their electorates in the past and suffered the wrath of the electoral commission.

He has no chance. He needs to be in Australia to be elected or he will be charged with electoral fraud. Good luck to him but by the time he has dealt with his current legal "issues" most people would have forgotten about him.

Does this account for the changes in how spending is reported? Is all defense spending under defense? or is there a lot hidden under education and health? I have played with too many budgets to accept things like this at face value.

Yes Wikipedia does suck but not for the reasons outlined. When Encarta started out everything was on Encarta. You need to remember not many people had internet at home in 1997. If you want to read about the space shuttle try clicking throug

There is an article you can read. You just need to sign up. And then they send you spam to make you think "I'm sure I ticked the no email box".

I for one feel a lot safer thanks to this blog post from the TSA. Keep up the great work TSA and thank you for putting my worries to rest. -- Do I need to put sarcasm tags?

Mechanical Turk takes up to 30 days to approve payment for any task, so instant payment is out of the question. Having a terminal where someone can sit for hours on end being the same place as a cash dispenser isn't the best idea. The users
