IIRC from this guy's site, before it was a show, he had a stand-off with the bank for a while before learning that this check was holding up a merger between his bank and another company, so the whole executive suite was freaking out. Eventually he gave the check back with no repercussions and some token like a letter of apology.
We're turning around a beloved but sleepy trade magazine into a modern web-first company. As you can imagine, the existing technical bench is pretty shallow.
We need someone who enjoys crafting beautiful CSS and beating responsive HTML emails out of the most reluctant clients, and someone who knows a little Python and wants to know a lot more. Can be the same person!
Health insurance, 401k w/ match, and all the theater gossip your black little heart desires.
Yes, that figured into my decision to leave a top 5 CS program. The best students were so far ahead that I thought, "Wow, I obviously don't know the first thing about programming- I guess I'm just a lowly diletante." My other best subject was English, so I figured I might as well do that, get the degree, and I'd still be able to teach myself what I needed to know about CS. It was all going so well until all the job postings started requiring a CS degree...
I don't think image comparison is the problem here. The problem is that designers works in rather different flows. To us a file can be many different states at once.
Kind of like a developer would have 10KLOC but be commenting the 8K of them in and out all the time.
In other words the document have many states at once depending on what you make visible or not.
I was hoping this would cover "Are you calling me a liar?" which seems to be a euphemism for "I dare you to explicitly accuse me of lying so I can change the subject" used by people who are lying.
Remarkable- that list supports your conclusion way more when you insert an item! Darn those irrational technophobic nature-romanticists, putting mobile phones into lists where they don't belong.
More accurately, some of the New Deal (deposit insurance, fiscal & monetary expansion, leaving the gold standard) worked, but some of it hurt. The fact that many countries suffered for just as long and worse, if not longer, without analogous policies makes me wary of the authors' modeling.
> Recovery came only after the Department of Justice dramatically stepped enforcement of antitrust cases nearly four-fold and organized labor suffered a string of setbacks, the economists found.
That wouldn't have been around 1939-45 or so, would it?
I've never gone through the system, but my first guess would be it's probably so that all the slots aren't given to kids from ideal, wealthy homes, raised with tutors and computer camp, but that there's some room in there for kids who might be really bright, but also dealing with effed up home situations that knock a couple points off their standardized testing. Or who are bored as fuck in their current school but would really come alive at a CS-focused school where they can learn alongside the most qualified applicants. Because school isn't a consulting firm or a hedge fund.
I can understand adjusting for socio-economic class, but why bring in kids that are working below grade level? Why not place them in a remedial program instead?
I think avinashv is trying to give you perspective on how it might look to the IRS in the worst case scenario, not suggesting that there's no way such an arrangement could be legal.
This. Not my finest wording, but as an unbiased observer, that is how it looks. And you can be sure that if the IRS is going to be biased, it sure as hell isn't going to be in your favor.
I'd love to find a generalist who can try to find cool, scalable ways to help a rapidly growing, profitable company get really reliable, efficient, and secure. We're located right on Union Square in New York, and we specialize in the profitable parts of the music industry.
Oh, and this would be a paid, full-time job, not an internship.
