Customer Communication

Please remember that the staff at this* are, like you, only human. We expect to be treated with the same level of respect as you'd expect us to treat you, so please bear this in mind when communicating with us, and more importantly before clicking the "Send" button.

We reserve the right to ignore and discontinue any correspondance we consider personally threatening, abusive or otherwise intended to invoke negative responses to the person receiving them. Legitimate and constructive criticism, however, is strongly welcomed - providing you can deliver this to us in an appropriate and sensible manner.

Abusing members of staff is absolutely not tolerated, and will result in an instant account termination.
The article indicated that they didn't raise enough money to actually switch the telescope on. Worth noting.
But if reporting is to be believed Google is struggling to hire and keep talent, and there hiring approach has been heavily criticised for encouraging 'generic' and 'average' employees.

The entire truth behind that I can't comment on myself, but thats what goes through my blogs feeds form time to time.

I know from every restructure I've ever been in the first casualty is the talented staff. They don't hang around to mucked about, they are in demand so they just flow somewhere where those issues don't exist.

But who knows, I guess there was a lot of sleepiness nights at Google before this went ahead, so our conjecture would have already been through more solid risk/benefit analysis than what a chat thread could offer.

No, there are limits. They differ from a company (and person) to another but they are usually the same. Do you accept that your client does sexual harassment to one of your employees?

I work as a freelance communicating with people with Skype. If someone has a bad tone, I'll politely tell him to change. If he doesn't, I'll refuse to work with him. I'll pull a refund for him, but that's only in the case I did no work.

Same here. I have it set as my primary search engine for months how but recently noticed that I am more often than not already add the !s or !g to get Google results instead when entering my terms in the address bar.

One of my biggest gripes is probably that it will only display one result per domain unless you restrict a search solely to that domain. And it often shows not the most relevant or logical result for a query for a website. I should make notes on that and send them in.
Situation of Jobs in Lahore
Being a fresh graduate, if you are looking for a job in Lahore then on Pkjobs.pk you will find lots of Lahore based jobs. Situation of jobs in Lahore is much better than rest of the country because of the industry and better literacy rate.
I do. What I like about it is the ability to use j, k (just like in Vim!) to navigate and that results are displayed on a single page. English searches are good enough to replace Google (at least for me), but I still use Google for other languages.
Congrats to DDG but wow Time has the worst navigation I've ever seen for a collection.

Where am I currently in that list? Where is the entire list? How do I start over? Go to the end? Why does it do full page reloads for every click?

When I freelanced one of my customers moved the accounting to SAP, which had the unfortunate consequence that they didn't pay me for four month.

It was, however, a reputable, well known firm and I had no reason to believe that they where playing games or trying to bullshit me.

I was right and got payed in full when the glitches got ironed out. Nevertheless, it was a tad annoying and part of the perils of a freelancer, I guess. Thankfully, while being persistent with their accounting department I never blew up and always stayed civil.

Very much second that setting up the invoicing for a new supplier can take time, especially at multinationals or other large firms. I can understand this due to the fact, that procurement is one of the most sensitive areas when it comes to fraud and dodgy invoicing. Thus firms set up a lot of safeguards before actual money flows.

I offer multiple options, 1. they can open local files, option two is obviously to get them from the server every time. For most things they don't usually look at the same stuff multiple times. An average MRI is pretty low resolution and can fit in under 50mb (average 10mb, 50-60 for fMRI scans) of storage thus it's not to expensive to redownload it. For surface data it's even less, my average brain surface is also under 10mb. Most of my users are on University networks which helps a lot.

Also applications in the chrome web store can get around the local storage limitation. I'd browsers to offer a quota system where the user can assign a max amount to their applications. That would solve those issues.
Making the figures and line bigger than 1 pixel would have still preserved 1D affect. Also the line does not need to be straight either - it could have been curved. The only requirement is the degree of freedom to move (back and forth).

Isn't this some weird sort of Turing machine?

EDIT: also isn't it 2d, seeing as it has to include the dimension of time?
Interesting idea. But, I don't necessarily like it.

You're moving the display logic for a view controller to be outside of the view controller. You now have to know where a view was created and presented from in order to change any of the view's content around at a later date. With tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:, you don't have to worry about where it came from, because the view controller is responsible for managing its own content.

Also: as an aside, you should be caching all of your NS*Formatter objects at a per-thread level, rather than recreating every time you need them -- formatters are very expensive to create and set up.

For me thiswebhost.com has lost all credibility.

A website is a source of income and just cannot be joked with. As gfunk stated, the fact that it became personal for a company is ridiculous.

You always will have unsatisfied customers and yes sometimes they will curse at your company, but there can be NO reason to terminate a source of income.

I have a question: is SETI actually useful?

There's a couple of agencies on Earth that spend their time capturing human communications. It's a very difficult task and they need more than $ 200,000 to operate.

Now I understand we just want to detect with a good degree of certitude that a transmission is intelligent but not human. We don't care about descrambling it.

Yet, I think it's an almost impossible task because those communications will most likely be compressed and ciphered and therefore look like noise.

Really? I've seen plenty of people kicked off buses for unsociable behaviour.
I think there's a very, very large reason that's only brushed on in point 2-- much like how "doing your job" and "interviewing for your job" require two very different skillsets, "doing your job" and "leading other people in doing what used to be your job" are nowhere near as related as they seem to be on first blush.

Point two seems to be talking more about micromanagement specifically, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's more the issue that people who like doing don't necessarily like leading.

It feels like there's going to come a day when there's nothing left to innovate without getting instantly sued. Everything that could possibly be created will either wrapped in patents, contain other patents, or be "closely related" to further patents.

I look forward to this particular bubble popping, although what people are going to do once they realize that everyone's sitting on everyone else's hands is beyond me.

How are you going to deal with employers that will only hire people that are already employed if / when you have to look for a job?
Then you haven't seen many list features on major publications' websites. Not that there are many worse, just that this system is extremely common.

There is a tiny bit of logic behind the thinking that some users prefer lists this way (the less techy you are, the more likely you're not a particularly quick browser, so these don't slow you down much, and having them on seperate pages cuts it into bitesize chunks), but the main reason is simply advertising, page views equal banner impressions.
I really hope that we can make printers that can copy themselves before the IP lawyers realize what they can be used for.
I assume you're being down-voted because you are comparing the price of a contract-free phone with that of a contract phone (but excluding the cost of the contract).

A quick look at the AT&T website suggest that to get that $49 iPhone, you need to sign up for at least $55 of services per month for 24 months, which comes to $1369 total.

Sure, there are probably deals to be had, but you'll never get it down far enough to even pretend to compete with a $80 phone and $0-20/month off-contract minutes.

Archiving a Braille copy of Playboy
This makes no sense to me. It says it stops cmd-Q from losing your work. Every program I have seen asks if you want to save unchanged edits before it closes the window following reception of a quit. Now, Lion has a new paradigm available for quitting, but it autosaves and versions all unsaved edits, so you also don't lose your work. How are people losing their work from pressing cmd-Q? In 25 years of using Macs off and on I've never had that problem.
The only issue I've had with this is Google Chrome, but you can reopen the program and Command-Shift-T to reopen all previously open tabs.

I agree that teaching others what you know is a key ingredient for leaders. The aim should be to have your followers surpass you eventually. A second class leader will try to prevent that, that's a lose-lose for everyone.

Another reason that I think is missing here is when a person that should be a leader has a very liberal mindset that comes with a reluctance to tell other people what to do, regardless of ability (skill + confidence).

I'm with you: I was wondering the same thing. Some people are downvoting your reasonable and polite comment voicing a sensible concern. This sort of downvoting activity directed towards quality comments are ruining this site by trying to create a popularity club where conformity to groupthink is enforced through the threat of downvotes.

As far as App store goes, many programs will never be available on the app store. Customers who think that represents a significant burden and want to write long essays about that are not likely to be the sort of customers you want any way.

Add to that list C-a " to view the list of screens.

C-a C-a will swap the current and previous screen.
C-a S splits the screen vertically
C-a <tab> navigates to the next visible screen (there's no back-navigation).
C-a q collapses all splits leaving the current screen visible.

I like the idea of Freebase but I find it a PITA to use it because the AJAX (if I'm not wrong) is non user-friendly and the site frequently returns errors.

Is there anyone out there who regularly use Freebase and if so, what kind of information that you search for there that you do not use Google for?
For interactive multiple file transfers using SSH as an underlying transport, both lftp and mc are pretty darned good. 'lftp fish://user@hostname/path' sets up the basic connection. From there, it's like using a full-screen ftp client (lftp also supports ftp, sftp, and multiple other protocols).

mc can access remote filesystems and do complex file and directory management with ease.

Of course, there's always rsync as well.

5 tips on getting a job at western companies in China
I think there are two types of "experiments".

One of them is the classical scientific experiment, where you build an apparatus or somethings from dozens of components, and look at what results it produces. I can see how most of your concerns apply to that.

The other one is supplemental standard measurements, which can be also very expensive. For example if you create a new metal alloy, you might need an AFM image of the grain boundaries. If you receive such an image, you can very easily assess its quality, making it easier to rely on the "results" of others.

If you plan ahead, you can include a few thousand USD for AFM images in your grant application, much easier than getting a grant approved which includes buying your own AFM.

I do have one worry about this though. If this is the only "computer" a lot of people can afford, this is going to mean that the bulk of a generation is going to grow up without access to computers they can program themselves. Maybe I'm just being alarmist, but growing up all our family's computers were also programmable, so I went from basic to c to c++ all on the same machines dad used for Word Processing. Losing all that for the convenience of mobile seems like a questionable trade.

Life (in IT) Lesson #5372: Learning To Say No, Keep Having Fun
I want to not have to borrow money from my kids to pay the bills and put food on the table like my parents did with me.

I want to be my own boss, because I have some innate aversion to having my livelihood be at the whim of anyone but myself.

I want to be able to have the luxury of being able to do what I want, when I want without being constrained by the amount of money I do not have in the bank, because although the romantic in me wants to swear up and down that happiness cannot be bought by material things, the realist in me knows that money makes the world go round. And, to quote Boiler Room, "Those who say money can't buy happiness doesn't fucking have any."

I want all of these things because at the end of the day, when I have a family and my kids ask me about my life story, I want to be able to look at them and tell them I came from nothing and made the life I live of luxury, void of financial stresses and the like, all by myself through unadulterated hustle and the belief I am meant for greatness. I want to be able to tell them that they, too, can achieve the same as long as they beat the fuck out of any obstacle life throws their way.

I want to be me.
