Now they can figure out who has it, before it is too late. I heard it described as "this test is like before mammograms, when a woman found out she has breast cancer It was always stage 4 at that point". Now, with a test, researchers have a better window to fight it.

Yes

You act as if 500 more people driving into work alone will drown NYC due to the ice caps melting. Face it, this has a minimal impact to anyone, even those working @ Yahoo. Your post is sensational. Yahoo clearly is failing and needs to right its course.

I telework, I am not managed, I just get my stuff done. I can see why people fall into the trap and aren't productive.

But Yahoo! wasn't Some 500 out of 11000 employees teleworking is a bit different than 70% of your staff teleworking. MySQL was designed to work remotely, while it sounds like Yahoo! was shoe horned into it. Not saying Yahoo! can't adapt, but it is clear how Yahoo! has been dying that - something is critically wrong in the culture there. I don't see killing teleworking as bad - simply because, well, there is just a lot wrong with the company that needs to be fixed. Time will tell if it was a wise decision...

Doing a lot with SharePoint documentation and you'll discover why MSDN is the absolute worst for actually learning a single thing.

I'd really like to know why, in SharePoint Web Services that the date formats vary in three different ways - other than a "fuck you" to anyone working with them.

But were the hipsters necessary?

Is the absolute worst fucking buzzword out there right now. It is a great way to figure out someone is a complete idiot right off the bat.

How does anyone know they haven't? Everyone Is assuming they ignored everything he wrote.

Anyone can be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize...

Mayer had to do what is right for Yahoo! They have been stagnant for awhile, so - perhaps it is a proper change in management. I guess time will tell.

I work remotely (for the last year and a half) and it definitely has benefits but it also has drawbacks. There *is* something to working in an office with coworkers, but there is something to be said about working remotely (being out of stupid meetings, getting drawn into things, etc).

Then they shouldn't receive funds paid for in taxes, simple as that. If tax dollars go towards it, it should benefit the public. End of story.

What a joke. Any research receiving tax dollars should have any and all research associated with it available to the public. Don't want to make your research public, then don't take tax money.

It is almost a year ago to the day Azure was down for a day because no one accounted for leap year for validating certificates, lol. AWS seems to have issues too, but they don't seem to revolve around blatant stupidity and result in an entire day of downtime.

You do realize that the people making this "fucking sailboat" are middle class folk right? If he wasn't buying his "fucking sailboat" - they wouldn't have jobs. I know, it is hard to see through your abhorrent jealousy.

If we can't stop the meteor, then what is the point? I mean - it is like being told you'll be shot in the face the second before it happens.
