Does anyone else get sarcastic "what's the point?" comments when ordering or serving decaf? How do you deal with it? I would drink coffee during the work week and have nausea headaches at the weekend, once i established the cause and effect here I stopped the coffee habit. What I find tiresome are the macho comments about being a real coffee drinker. Yes, I also love the double-shot whatever, but dependency isn't cool and I don't want to have coffee at the weekend just to avoid headaches.
In this situation the other person believes they are correct and a high performer and you, the manager and your advice, is wrong. Your advice is wrong and your expectations are wrong. You can't have the conversation until you've done the work to identify the likely cause of an underperformer’s lack of self-awareness.
totally agree with this comment, help the person; we all bring different skills. Also, the person might just need a prompt or remind, someone telling them mid afternoon on Friday that a form is due before going home.
one thing i love about using Vim, may only apply to using it in a text based terminal, is that the input cursor is not the text select cursor. This may also apply to emacs. Useful in many instances to select text from one portion of a document file for copy, and to paste into another, without losing the insertion point.
"The media has...", really? There's no coordinated media, there are several media corporations (like Twitter, BBC, News Corp (NY Post owner)) with their own bias and their own audience.
i am not a lawyer but have moved from the UK to the USA. The visa is permission to cross the border, but there's the i-94 stamp which is visitor residency, so if your visa expires but you are still good with i-94 dates, you're fine i believe (just you can't return if you leave). Obviously it's more complicated, i had a different visa to the one you mention.
Yes exactly! and maybe why can't it show me when my audio is breaking up on the receivers computer, it could be their system or mine, either way i'd like an indicator of dropped audio.
All true, so maybe it's more concerning for something targeted like evidence in a trial where a judge and jury are shown some undeniable and incriminating, yet fabricated evidence. The amount of time it takes to produce these makes them more purposed for spear-phishing campaign than anything more board, as you say where simple lying works.
I thoroughly recommend watching the John Cleese video. As you say, these are instructions on carving out some time (90 minutes) for creative thinking and better decision making; https://youtu.be/bC-gBeQYHls
quicker than hashing the file, you might want to compare exif data (extract with exiftool), i have been comparing image date/time (to the second) as tagged by the camera, and when i find a duplicate, i keep the one with the largest image size. I've not worked out how to deal with those without exiftags. I understand ShotWell hashes the thumbnail to find dupes. The security camera software motion has some image comparison and to determine if the camera image has changed since the last image, i think it was visual in nature, rather than hashing, since webcams are "noisy".
I also have been using Terminus from iOS to get to servers I manage. It's been great, thanks. They keyboard will always be difficult but you solved cursor keys and tab. How are you going monetize?
A friend of a friend told me that people, such as diplomat families who have to quickly settle but often relocate, will deliberately but routinely eat at the same restaurant, say, every Thursday evening. After a couple of weeks they'll find staff or other regular diners will engage with them and build relationships.
Agreed. The post is from Nov 2018, both Amazon and Target now have different product images. The post is accurate about deceptive mislabeling, but the example is out of date.
You might want to seek out a local maker space? Is the USA these aren't too uncommon. Or, with the kids, take things apart and rebuild them, modify them. Unscrew, unclip, use a solder iron to remove components. Hours of fun. Maybe since we care nowadays, first check (google) for toxic materials such as Asbestos or lead or mercury.
I agree the diagrams from text is what's needed, since they can be maintained in version control, or even just maintained. Since so many diagrams I look at are produced to share a message and become out of date almost instantly. Developers work in text, so should the visualization tools.
It's hard to identify cause and effect, but the large UK/European consumer boycott of South Africa in the 1980s may have had some effect, and there are US Federal laws against boycotting Israel (BDS), so i guess someone fears it is effective in some way.
Agreeing with you. Customer service sites are prime targets for solutions where JavaScript is used to enable training, screen sharing, user tracking and advertising, and the up-side is so compelling, especially to non-technical customer service operations managers "those who decide to do so", that they can't conceive of how this little widget can scrape the whole screen, or worse, be maliciously tipped to steal or inject information. The site owners are at fault, but also the browsers should make it easier to disable active content. We can presume that most users aren't discerning, but I'd switch to both plain text e-mail and plain-text browsing, if possible, switching to bloated sites when i can't find an alternative, and like the other comment here, using Lowes instead of Home Depot because their site is less awful. I'll be sharing the link to No Boundaries page next time i'm talking with someone who wants to add a tracking feature to a page.
I flew with my final-trimester (ie very visibly) pregnant wife in a small helicopter. The pilot announced the number of souls including the unborn, i was, (and still aren't) sure whether this was just cute for effect, or what he was supposed to do.
It should be illegal to pollute a water supply, but really, we can find another water fountain which isn't soiled. A law seems heavy handed, as it does here to protect the narrow interest of online gamers.
Bulging camera -> broken glass. For two years I've been using a Galaxy S5 with bulging camera and twice I have broken the camera glass needing replacing, it's the first thing to hit the surface when i rest the phone on a table and takes a lot of stress. Of course I could be more careful. It has also scratched and so there's more lens flare, but I'm tired of replacing it. My wife's iPhone with flush camera is much less of a problem.
In simple terms, also a Brit living abroad, I agree. But I think the problem is Entertainment Industry layers of licensing. I believe the BBC pays actors, images and incidental music by industry association (eg BMI), license which may not be global, but only for UK territories. Geo-blocking is more of a problem of super complex royalties and intellectual property management, not simply they don't want to share. Compare with sports events which are licensed by territory for no practical reason except negotiating rights, the successful bidding media outlet is often required by the producer to geo-block.
i had a fruitless discussion, when we found a water bottle in my bag, he said he knew, exasperated, and it's the rules and whatnot, but I so wish he said "Look Son, I don't know it's water, so I'm asking you to dispose of it". It's like even the staff know how stupid the theatre is.
regarding the Obama clip, i'm impressed Obama can talk so clearly about how airBnB works, for someone who lives in a bubble of security and probably never thinks about where he's going to stay when he goes on holiday, he can describe very well the social reputation components of airBnB.
I agree, but i think the LE target audience is not you. Their whole thing is to be easy and use the "magic", to get the people who don't want to buy a certificate or deal with the config files, onto good encryption. I'm their audience and now my low-power volunteer run FM radio station website has HTTPS with a recognised CA.
