From TFA:
people clicking on a link in the email that goes to a malicious website that looks harmless but can have total control over their PC in less than five seconds
That's not really phishing. More like a drive-by download. Phishing is where the e-mail or web site attempt to truck the luser into entering an ID/password for the legitimate site being masqueraded.
Phishing attempts to exploit a weakness in the user, downloads exploit the o/s or client software.
The reality is men basically have to suffer through this harassment too and the difference is they are expected to put up with it.
No, I'm not. When some lard-ass starts shouting, pounding the table and threatening people physically, I can back him down. Not many women can.
Management needs to make it clear that this behavior will not be tolerated. Or the company will end up being run by Bubba and all the intellectual talent will move on. This is fine if you are in the business of digging ditches. Not so much in the software business.
It's possible to map ground contours using SAR through vegetation. And it would be trivially easy to make property purchases conditional on a risk assesment of landslide conditions basd upon past slide activity. There goes the market for those cheap riverfront vacation properties.
The IRS does not like this one bit,
But that's not the employer's problem. If an employee leaves of his/her own volition and offers services only on a contract basis, there isn't much an employer can do about it. If its critical talent, they may have no choice other than to accept contract terms. If the IRS takes issue with this, the company has the option to take the whole matter very public. It becomes a clear case of tax regulations interfering with the operation of business operations and is the basis of many companies just saying "F*ck it!" and taking their operations overseas.
In both configurations the inverter output is fed into an isolation transformer.
Which is going to be bigger and heavier than the inverter module. And have higher losses as well.
So what was the point of this contest?
That's 305000W.h per litre.
This isn't an energy storage device. It' an energy conversion device and as such stores nothing*. Think of it as a piece of wire. Power in, power out. With some minor loss which produce heat. An inverter is just 'magic wire' where DC goes in and AC comes out.
*Technically not exactly true, as an inverter has some smoothing filters. But they store energy for a time period on the order of half an AC cycle, not hours.
To being criticized by women? I think not. Or the species would have gone extinct thousands of years ago.
Personally, I like women that can stand up or themselves. I am admittedly a bit of a jerk and I don't think a relationship with me would survive if a girlfriend or wife wasn't capable of telling me when I'm being an asshole. As long as its constructive criticism, I'm OK with it.
Under capitalism, if you don't like them, you pay to have them changed in your favor.
Either way, the same shit happens.
I suppose this would depend on who made the decision to depart. If the employer lets an employee go only to rehire them back as a contractor, then I can understand. But this doesn't need to be communicated to employees through memos. HR can enforce employment/contracting legal and tax issues on their own.
On the other hand, if the departure is initiated by the employee, its quite possible that this employee might be valued but not willing to return under standard employment terms. If Mircosoft wants them, they may only be available as a contractor. Then the IRS and NLRB can go suck an egg.
I'm going in dry.
Check in kiosks are fine the way they are. If you want a human touch, just wait for the TSA security line. Of course, it will involve a Latex glove.
Don't make a mess of it.
There are three kinds of people: men, women, and unix.
