> newsflash those were all hot tech in 1974 and besides any year in the last 100 (including 2019) a Harvard student gets priority rather than binned.
I'm european, so I don't really see that many harvard grads. But everythign being equal, why would I give a harvard grad priority over someone from L'X, ETH, mines, oxford, MIT..
- not mentioning highschool graduation year (But I suppose this could be hidden in the bottom)
Both these things, I've seen and heard HR employess toss CVs over in real life as well as from people talking online.
But I guess, I migh've been too biased in what I'm saying. since I'm european so there a different standards for resumes.
I've had an argument this week with the head of HR, because an employee threw the cv of a work student which had a Lüke ( a hole) in his resume. I guess I was overprojecting, which made my message too overexagerated. sorry.
I'm amused that such a resume would be binned by many HR departments.
That is some HR depatments, are so bad at their job, that they will literally lose your company the chance to get a Bill-gates-caliber dev.
I mean obviously if he gets to the technical interview, an engineer can see that he is competent. But they question is would such a resume get past HR?
> "I have a right to do everything that's not actually illegal" is an attitude that directly results in all kinds of trivial things being banned.
You say that, like it's something surprising. A Priori, a person will do anything as long as it does not violate his own self imposed code of conduct.
That code of conduct need not be the same for everyone.
Laws, religion, moral codes are used to codify parts that are shared by a group of people.
In a civil state, the only part that you can force people to abide to, is that of the law in the general sense. (because they have a right to have a different religion, different moral doctorines etc..).
of course, people can self impose stricter rules on themselves but they can't impose rules stricter than the law on others.
> In this case, it's leading to cities trying to ban or restrict AirBNB
yeah, they can. I agree with you here. And I'm sure there is many valid reasons to do so.
My point is noise,in my opinion, is not one.
Inacceptable levels of noise should be banned regardless of the type of the rental contract.
for example, increased demand on housing making long term renting too expensive, is a valid one. Because it's a necessary result of airbnb.
My general point of view, is that one should ban / disadvantage X because of undesirable property Y, only if Y is an essential property/consequence of X.
I like this principal because it's general enough to be equivalent to "one shouldn't punish the innocent"
and prohibition of racism directly follows from it.
- my point, it's easier to attack a group of people , if you can put a label on them. Noise is a problem regardless of its source.
A noisy long term neighbour is at least as annoying as a noisy tourist. And a calm tourist is less annoying. Being noisy is not an essential property of airbnb rentals.
Those who are noisy should suffer the consequences of their actions. Those who are not, should not.
The second part of my argument, is "my rights start where your rights end".
if the tourists/owner/ whatever has a right to make that noise, then you don't have the right to prevent them from doing that noise.
If they don't have the right to make that noise level, then they don't have that right regardless of who they are.
Because something disadvantages you, it doesn't mean that others don't have the right to do it.
- The noise level is within the reasonable legal limit:
Tourists are exercising their rights to use the condo, in the same way that the owner (main renter) could have done. Whether it's the owner making the noise or the tourists is immaterial.
- The noise levels are above the legal limits, inform them (courtesy) and then call the cops. whether it's the owner, or the tourists it's the same thing.
Wouldn't it make sense to let the languge converge on its own? The majorty of weird rules in english (aka commonly misspelled words) are being kept by teachers/pedants/stupid HRs.
The website doesn't look the same for different resolutions. If I set my resolutios to HD, it's fine. If I set it to Full HD, half the screen gets covered by the photo and it's very distracting.
I agree that imperative programming is important to learn but java is in my opinion shouldn't be the language to do so. I think learning should be fun and java is the exact opposite of fun. It's wordy, full of boilerplate and enterprise code. Java, in contrast to other major languages, doesn't have an inspiring narative or a reason to be.
This makes me think about descartes' devil, if in such a short time we are able to generate fake bodies. What if we could generate fake people (not necessarily conscious but behaving as if they are.) in the future.
and with enough advances in brain/computer interfaces one could live a whole life without meeting a real human . In fact, in that case, one wouldn't even need accurate models since there would be no baseline to compare to.
Or maybe, we could implement surgical lenses that applies a filter on other people generating a fake person.
You can basically, eliminate _ism(s) in the workplace by making everyone look and sound the same.
People can pay to make their images in others' eyes different. Or one can pay to make their spouse look like a their true love in their eyes.
>Was of war when Iran captured US navy seamen in the Arabian gulf?
On January 12, 2016, two United States Navy riverine command boats were seized by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy after they entered Iranian territorial waters near Iran's Farsi Island in the Persian Gulf.
