I don't authorized my government to deal in secret. I never did and I especially wouldn't have since Wikileaks has shown us the crimes they commit. And to deal with the USA despite their ongoing wars, 'rendition' for torture, etc, is uncons

What evidence do you have that there is a business of abusing children? This sounds like satanic cults in our daycares - froth and hysteria. Oh, fyi, we've been waging the war on society for a while now. It's in the form of unnecessary wars

Sounds smart. Work with the candidate doing what you want the candidate to be able to do. Btw, your jobs page is totally broken without JS and your blog page didn't resize properly - the text moved off the side but there was no scrollbar. I

That's the needless education, not the ability. A proper test is doing something real, not conjugating types and reading obfuscated code. Is this scenario real? Where were you interviewing and how did you do?

I do better than the next guy. It's not like they expect magic, but they expect effort commensurate with the $250+/hr they plan to bill for you. I think I'd like such a job because it always annoys me when co-workers won't try just because

Absolutely. You got your compensation already when you learned about music from everyone else. And even if not, it's just morally wrong and nigh impossible to contain ideas. How do you think the ultra-mega-corp is going to get unreasonably

Nope. The problem is granting monopolies and expecting to encourage growth. It's nonsensical. Even if our courts were up to it, and we see time and hand again that they are not, you simply cannot consistently enforce incoherent laws. All IP

It's a way to get attention all right. When I saw it drop-down I closed the site. I can cut and paste a URL, thanks. This 'Like' spam is something I dislike.

Git history is indelible too. I mean, you can't mess with an existing tree without it being obvious. But in any VCS you can of course start over. Set the system clock back and check the existing code from another repo into a new one in diff

Admittedly they do say "It is a myth your entire Google account will be suspended because of violating the G+ real-name policy". But they do not say, and would have to to make me comfortable, "we will not force any G+/real-name policies on

Sure, but they appear to be moving to single-sign-in for all their services and that single thing is a real-name based identity service. Google has reportedly closed other accounts that predated G+ for G+ problems. I don't know if they'll p

How horrible. When asking an adult for proof of date-of-birth we clearly say "Because you can't come in and buy beer until you're 21". But kids don't get that respect. There's no worse way to handle this. It teaches kids to lie and there's

That boss can only fire you so quickly once you start looking because he's already been looking. And he likes not only having that freedom, but that you do not. They don't know what loyal means. Don't kill yourself trying to show them.

Well, I'd like to know why it doesn't work. If that's pedantic, so be it. Edit: I think people took this the wrong way. I mean it's not pedantic to find the real problem. We're all better off because the poster I'm responding to showed us t

You need to know why "they" are doing "it". But yeah, if "it" is something "they" can afford to stop, then yes. IEEE is famous enough it would survive even if this was a small market negative. It's more problematic with low-end products mad
