I want public Video cameras all over the VA governors mansion and private home.
He can have the drones as soon as he let's us install tons of cameras all over in his home that allow anyone to watch him.
If he is against it, what is he hiding?
Article certainly sounded like they were already done with your two tasks that will "take a long time".
No, the article only makes it sound like the data collection is done. And it is. Data of unprecedented detail, and about the structure of the moon. That doesn't mean you just run the data through a plotter and get a picture of what the data means about the structure of the moon. That will take time.
Sorry you're disappointed that this article is only about the successful end of the main mission, and not about the conclusions from that mission's data, but that's what it is.
Oh he can poach one, Publicly Offer high 6 or 7 figures for the position, he will have 50 qualified candidates jamming his inbox withing hours of the advertisement.
What he is not saying is that he is NOT WILLING to offer exceptional compensation to entice an expert away from their current position.
This is the other problem. Advertise your salary range. I'm not wasting several hours of my time just to be offered LESS than I am currently making. I ask on the first phone interview, "how much is this paying." To hell with "etiquette" Stop wasting my time and yours.
Which is why every new responsibility I am given, I look at them and ask, "Sounds good, that looks like a 25% raise to me, when do I sign the paperwork for it?"
Attach a price, and leave if they balk.
Yup.
I have a $600 a month mortgage and a $350 a month car payment, and I NEED to make at least $46,000 a year. Food, energy, education, and Kid costs are so astronomical it's not funny. And this is without paying for Cable TV, or going to any movies. Just general bills.
Well the good news is there's already an Astrotrain that fits the bill!
The bad news is he's a Decepticon. Let's just say insuring your satellite that's being launched by malevolent robot is cost prohibitive.
Your response should have been, "So you should have tripled my salary and kept me then. If you pay people what they are worth, they work harder and are far more loyal."
DIN?G!DING! DING! We have a WINNER!
There are 15 IT positions available in my city that are advertised. All of them are asking for stellar skill knowledge but offering $12-$15 an hour.
Yeah, stuff it in your bung hole. For entry level Call center? sure! but 5+ years experience with Enterprise server environments, and CCNE required? Yeah, Bite me.
One has been out there for over 2 years now. $8.50 an hour doing IT work for a 500 employee company, expected to work nights and weekends. I'll work at home depot stocking shelves for $8.50 an hour first.
Knowing what we know today about the shape of the world - which peoples of his time most certainly did not - can you really sit there and say he failed?
Ah, sorry, but this "People thought the world was flat, and Columbus proved that it was round" thing is a myth.
Peoples of the time knew very well the "shape of the world" as roughly spherical. They also knew roughly how large it was -- this had in fact been figured out around 200 BC by Eratosthenes. It was because of this, not a belief in a flat earth, that they thought Columbus was a fool. They knew that the distance to Asia was far too great for it to make sense to take the 'back route' to India. Columbus thought the earth was much smaller than it actually is. He was wrong, they were right.
The thing that was learned was that there was an entire continent there (which had been discovered before but wasn't known to Europeans). But because Columbus was using a grossly wrong value for the earth's size, he didn't even realize what he had discovered and thought he had completed his journey to India on schedule. And so, centuries later, we're still stuck with our "dot or feather" Indians confusion.
Anyway, he didn't discover anything about the shape of the earth. And on his mission to find a faster trade route to Asia, he did in fact fail. Of course since the reason for that mission was to make money, you can't really say it was a complete failure from Spain's point of view.
Of course! The people that put the insturments in the craft didn't bother to create a manual so that the staff monitoring the craft would know what it's doing, or how to control it. Now the craft controllers have to figure it out on their own, makes sense to me.
Um... the staff monitoring the craft do know what it's doing, and how to control it. That doesn't mean they can magically turn the data acquired by the probe into meaningful conclusions without any effort.
I'm sure your post made sense to you, but it has nothing to do with anything in reality.
