They may have IP, but do they have TCP or UDP yet?
Damn, you beat me to it - I came here to ask the same thing.
On a similar note, of course they are an Internet Protocol Powerhouse - they have billions and billions of users!
Check out the net profit margins on many of the big Pharma companies. They're not obscenely high for the most part. Apple for example has had a profit margin of around 20% for the past few years.
Average profit margin in the last 5 years:
GSK=12%
Merck=9%
Abbot Labs=15%
Astrozenica 12%
Eli Lilly 13%
They're good for the most part, but not unbelievably amazing.
Don't forget, that's after throwing away 20-40% on advertising.
So, yes, they are unbelievably amazing.
Who's the superstar here? Are you really going to base that on a degree? My experience is that being a "superstar" has to do with passion and not education. Granted, you can't really get a serious feel for that in an interviewing process that is still sane and legal but in the end who's going to do what it takes shouldn't be based with too much weight on formal education. I know a lot of dopes with and without degrees.
As an adjunct professor at a local college, I can confirm that there are a lot of idiots in college. I have had several students who were close to getting their degrees that I would be embarrassed to say they received their "education" from my school. They barely passed my classes with a C or a C-, but that's good enough to count towards their degree.
Innisfil will subsidize Uber trips so citizens pay between CA$3 and CA$5 themselves, depending on the destination, the town said.
Isn't CA$3 to CA$5 per ride more expensive than bus rides?
Uber may be better for the city, but it doesn't sound like it will be better for the consumer.
If there's no loopholes in this, sure.
However, it's only for programmers who don't have a bachelor's degree. They all do...most are doctors. Everyone cheats in school over there.
How is that different from the U.S., where every college application is admitted merely because they will be paying tuition? K-12 schools can't fail Johnny because his feelings will get hurt! Although that has produced an entire generation of idiots, colleges don't care because even the idiots have to pay tuition, and colleges only care about the $$$.
... is hopefully an April fools. I've been around for ~20 years, but if this is the site's new face then my eyes just can't take it.
Most 20-somethings have better eyesight than that.
The problem is the generated passwords. go read a few IPSec articles about passwords. Also changing passwords on sites is bad idea unless an absolute necessity. Also in said articles.
Citation required for any absurdity claiming that changing passwords is a bad thing.
My boss (CIO) promotes me from his favorite developer to management, of which, admittedly I know nothing. After a few months he calls me into his office, wants to discuss my management style. He feels I'm not being assertive enough. Throws a knife down on the desk says, "Now, I want you to stab me." I say what. He says, "Stab me, go on, fucking stab me."
Perhaps you should have taken your smart phone out of your pocket and started video taping him.
I am officially done with this shitty site, I won't be checking to see if I got voted down, I am logging out & never coming back. I submitted this nearly an hour before, but yet this one gets posted instead; so fuck slashdot, and fuck all the owners, they can all go fuck their children which I know they love to do!!!
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
Do you really blame the users for not updating? How many times have you updated an application and found the UI worse (such as filled with ads) or doesn't work as well?
Yup, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I once updated an app that I used regularly. The new UI changed so much that a process that used to take 5-10 minutes in the old app would have taken an hour in the new app. No, thanks. I uninstalled the app, restored the
These days - the "cover letter' is the wording of the e-mail you attach your CV to. That's where you determine if the person whose job it is to filter out the time-wasters (most likely a professional head-hunter these days) will bother with your CV at all.
These days, the cover letter is meaningless because HR departments use computers to filter CVs that contain the keywords that the hiring manager is looking for. If your electronic CV doesn't contain those "magic words", no human will ever see your CV.
In today's Electronic Age, what matters more is who you know, not what you know. You need to know the right person so you can bypass the HR department.
