And what evidence do you have of that?

I ended up just using a pillow speaker with a 3.5mm jack cable. Avoids problems like this I was having with bluetooth.

> For example, we thought that plain cloth masks were somewhat effective at stopping transmission, but now we know that they are not

What links do you have supporting this?/Can you give more details? There is evidence regarding Omicron but as far as I'm aware that is it. Afaik masks were effective.

As soon as one person tries that then it'll just mean managers are exceedingly careful with their words, and there will be zero difference in the resulting action that comes out of perf reviews. The threat of suing won't mean you get a better pay review, it won't improve your promotion prospects, it won't stop people getting pipped or fired if needed.

So that means direct reports/ICs can be held liable if they write harsh 360 reviews of their managers? or when they talk to other people about their manager in critical ways?

You seem to hate managers, whatever experience(s) that you had must have been pretty bad, I don't think what you are proposing is an answer or makes much sense or would have any impact. I truly hope you, in time, reach a healthier place.

yeap and we should sue individual employees for lying about estimates and delivery dates and making false promises. We should sue when the technical design isn't right and not delivered on time. If you say to a company you can deliver on a date and cause them to lose money you are personally liable for damages. /s

'Taking a holiday became like a 12 step program - email boss in advance, put in HR system request, cross check your PagerDuty schedule, negotiate a trade with another teammate for PagerDuty rotation, decline meetings, update your outlook calendar out-of-office, set your slack status & notifications, and re-remind everyone the week before you go. It's almost like they wanted it to be easier to just not take time off?'

Most of this has nothing to do with pager duty, but instead is around the companies process.

Is this conjecture or fact?

Because it's done server side so that the minimal size can be sent to the client whilst also aiming to get maximum quality. It means you don't always have to send the largest highest image to every user, you can just send the most efficient/appropriate image. i.e. If you wanted a thumbnail of a massive image and it was done client side then you'd have to send that massive image even if it wasn't needed.

Business can :-

- ...sure they focus university reach out programs/recruitment teams on less wealthy universities.

- ...start 'apprenticeship' type programs to specifically target groups less represented in their current recruiting pipeline.

- ...ensure their current hiring practices don't have biases that might contribute more to this.

Companies have a responsibility to make sure harassment doesn't take place.

'Failing to provide a work environment free of racial harassment is a form of discrimination' see https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/guidance/section-15-race-and-color...

Similar to unsafe work places, such as if an accident occurs at work then the business can be held responsible for not caring about safety.

You are mixing two things up into one conversation. You are adding time into the conversation, in which case yes you need timezones, but if you don't add time into the conversation and just have dates, then you don't have timezones.

Some people think racism is bad, and that doing bad things should have some kind of repercussions and that companies have responsibilities around what happens in the workplace. Shocking I know.

But if you have a date, and a timezone...how do you do anything useful with those 2 things? If you add 8 hours to a date due to PST, what do you get?

Having a presence doesn't mean you can infer they are worried about not having a presence.
