THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
If anything this actually hurts opportunities for females. All this has done was create an environment where females may end up excluded because anything a male says could be used against them to cost them their jobs. I don't think this person even understands the magnitude of what she's done. Job loss is a Big Deal (tm). Immature jokes entirely NOT DIRECTED at you or even your gender from behind you in a crowd is nothing. Unless they were directing these comments at her I don't even see how this got to this level. Is there something I missed here? How is this not misandry?
Something I was discussing with my wife recently was if reading online counts. Most of my "scholarly" reading comes from Slashdot mostly which seems to be comprised primarily of educated folk. How much does this kind of reading contribute to traditional reading comprehension?
I'm not sure if I'd be so quick to call that post humorous...
Redhat has a gui?
I recently took a business class and one of our speakers referred to "The LLC barrier has been punctured so now your best bet is to go with an S-Corp" if I recall correctly. Anyone have any insight on this?
Whatever, AC. I appreciate it. Misinformation pisses me off and this crowd usually respects when folks aim to fix it.
Levy's Hackers was a HUGE reason of how I got into this world in the first place. That and textfiles.com - reading through a lot Ma Bell and whatnot.
That's part of their script these days. I received the same speech on both US coasts within a week. "Is there anything about these machines you know that I don't?" You'd think I wouldn't have to answer that question over and over and over but alas. I figure I may as well make it as uncomfortable for them as it is for me. I don't mind being felt up. To be fair - the pat downs have been nothing but absolutely professional. That is, assuming you consider a pat-down professional.
Interesting....
I think I missed a step in your thought process. It can find compounds but not tell which ones are toxins/impurities?
I'm calling bullshit on bullshit. My associates has landed me two decent jobs (sys admin).
To be fair - all my electives were geek classes - like network security and various programming. School is entirely what you make of it. You can float through, get your paper, and learn nothing. Or you can rock the fuck out and learn a lot of cool, useful, shit.
Yeah...it's that blending of the two types of "reporting" that threw me off. At least w/ the onion I know where I stand. With this group...I have no clue what they're after or who their audience even is. It feels like those well crafted spam emails that are almost coherent but just not quite.
You're supposed to post as AC if you're going to belittle someone while avoiding answering a question. Don't you know the rules here?
