Can't wait 'til she discovers the wonders of forced casualisation and then gets super upset when employees choose not to come in for 3 hours at 20-minutes notice. "How dare they treat my business so flippantly?" I…
At the very least they've definitely been run through a middle-man at some point. So what they've done is put a microphone in a library, grabbed whatever audio is on it, voice recognition'd it and then cleaned it up,…
Surely that should be 'growings-up'? Motion to burn at the stake the author/poster until we reach a conclusion
It's pretty firmly established that Bush lied and had been gunning for Iraq long before WMD became his casus belli and you have a wonderful resource called the world wide web if you have any interest at all in…
A lot of people here seem to have absolutely no issue with saying "I have no problem with the ethical ramifications of a company's actions or choice of representatives or the beneficiaries of a company's wealth that my…
I've never used it but I was under the impression that Microsoft had not killed off their Messenger platform, just MSN Messenger? They still run Lync which is the business-oriented platform and where they stand to make…
That's a pretty interesting test, thanks for sharing it. The funny thing is I had to pass over a bunch of words I know from french/latin/italian that I haven't seen used in English so I don't know whether the meaning…
I moved to Rome and got a job at a small Italian company with just a handful of other people. I'd never studied Italian before (but French and Latin, yes) and just simply turning up and having to struggle through…
There's a certain niggling worry I have about googling "how to hide my data from google"
I like that. "Prove you're not a drug dealer and we'll see if there's still money to return." It kind of gives the middle fingers to 3 somewhat-important US rights: the right to not self-incriminate (being coerced into…
Don't bitcoin tumbling services pretty much make it logistically impossible to follow the path of bitcoins if they cycle it enough? Also I wouldn't rely on the governments to do much to return people's investments in a…
I'll nestle it here, just after my still-open 'Y2K preparation' ticket.
I think anyone who brands themselves in such a manner -- namely, to purport to be something they're not -- is a duplicitous, deceitful deceiver, and has no place in honest business. This is the worst outrage since that…
The issue I have with this is that there's no such thing as "by the book" Federal investigations anymore. Snowden showed us that US intelligence agencies are using illicit, warrantless means of obtaining information and…
So you have to send all the techs and teams out twice to dig up the road? The end-of-the-line has always been the most expensive part, that's why it made more economic and technical sense to do it all at the same time…
That's not true at all. What newsroom did you work in that had journalists writing their own titles and expecting even a modicum of influence over the final product once it has been handed in?
I say leave it. Don't reduce your chance of getting paid work just because some smug clown on the internet wanted to score a psuedo-zinger by yelling at his television screen. If anything, change 'probably' to 'might'.…
That infographic is truly awful and I feel sorry for the poor guy who spent a few hours putting it together and carefully aligning stuff until it's 'just right'. Know when to kill your baby - it's never too late to walk…
I can't find the link but wasn't there an article, either by Ycombinator or about Ycombinator, that directly contradicted this article. The gist of it was that a VC firm isn't really looking for already-profitable…
