Xbox 720 has such a nice ring to it...

Moral of the story, you shouldn't touch a GM, Ford or Chrysler for all the tea in China...

That's OK. There's 500 other companies where I live that are all looking for 5 more developers. So no big...

The sales drones...

FTFY

The cable companies did exactly this for years (with a single antenna) and paid nobody. So what was your point again?

Yeah, the traditional cable companies only had one antenna for everyone when they got started. What was your point again?

Actually, it's a pretty good proof of anti-competitive practices. And there is a law against that. As Aereo found, the law is not always as cut and dried as you think. In fact, today the law can effectively be boiled down to a single point: "Don't make a person in power angry at you."

I like the idea of micropayments.

however, I don't trust google to manage this. they ONLY do evil, these days, disguised as good.

if google is part of it, I want no part of it. sorry. but I already block anything that has a G domain in it. this would require me to unblock them and that is just 100% unacceptable to me.

we need a truly good company to help make this happen. google is not the way forward. google is PART OF THE PROBLEM!

You could do that...
However if they do check out the forgery they will probably treat you like a shoplifter.

I have no love for Walmart. But part of the reason why companies treat the customer like they are criminals is because too many are.

It is one thing to steal food to feed your family if you can't afford it. But a play station?

And no Fat Tony defense.

Wal-mart isn't overpricing anything. They may have made a fortune, but their margins are pretty darned thin - they make it up on volume. Many sales deals are actually loss-leaders. IE, they get you in the store and hope that you buy enough other stuff to make up their loss.

By price matching, Wal-mart is hoping to get you in THEIR store rather than the competitors. And if you happen to just need to pickup bread, milk, some sheets, and fill your prescriptions while you're there, then they're ok with losing a bit of money on that one price match.

A massive megaton explosion (As we found out that comets are harder then we thought) Blasting a gigantic creator wiping out thousands if not millions of people. You are worried about a little bit of radioactive waste?

I would have been more, if we only used Nuclear energy so we knew more about this object so we know what type of danger it poses if it actually hit the earth.

At many companies I have worked at "female tech" (as a majority) is usually a Project Manager. "Male tech" is a developer. These do not have the same salary.

Amazon most likely can't find techs of any talent in Seattle without making the prices outrageous. After all, Microsoft is already there scooping a lot of them up. Since women are highly underrepresented in a field where there are not enough people to go around anyway, this is going to skew the results. I'm sure a talented female programmer would be paid the same and Amazon would love to have her. She's just not there. Even her male counterpart is barely there, at least based on the hiring that I have done.

Which is why it was a bad depiction of a computer engineer.
Now the problem Computer Engineering isn't a spectator sport. While it is interesting the the worker, it isn't so much for the viewer. It is like watching someone put together a jigsaw puzzle.

Research isn't propaganda, unless you're an anti-science denier.

This is exactly the same kind of claim that Creationists make about government's funding biology research. The anti-AGW and Creationist camps really are cut from the same anti-intellectual cloth.
