    The Art of Conversation

    Also people love hearing their own name. Use their name often in a conversation. And try to end the conversation with their name. "See you soon Bob" is more memorable than "See you soon" to the person. Also good luck, small talk is AIDS and is also incredibly exhausting when you do not give two...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Its why i called it an important class in "computational thinking" not in using data structuresIts pretty much the first class where one learns how to handle data in a generic way. Also when taught in c++ (the best way to teach it imo), it allows for insight into memory handling. Also this class...

    Company Raises It's Minimum Wage to $70,000 and All Hell Breaks Loose

    There are people working multiple jobs in McDonalds right now for barely more than 2.75/h so I dont think things will change. Its difficult to imagine how 22 (2.75*8 hours) extra dollars a day makes a difference without being dirt poor but if you think about it, assuming 200 working days a year...

    Company Raises It's Minimum Wage to $70,000 and All Hell Breaks Loose

    I imagine the wages would be similar to what waiters/waitresses earn now on the books. And people will do those jobs, most people will do everything they can to make a few extra bucks if the opportunity exists. And of course some will sit on the porch all day sipping colt 45s.

    Sounds great as long as the majority of the tax burden for the stipend is paid by the businesses. Otherwise, why the fuck are we subsidizing their low wage employees.

    Company Raises It's Minimum Wage to $70,000 and All Hell Breaks Loose

    Once burger flippers get 15 dollars an hour, the more difficult jobs will have to pay more than that to attract qualified workers. Raising min wage will increase wages across the board.

    If one goes to indeed, glassdoor, dice, stackexchange careers and whatever other places with job postings for programming jobs, one will find numerous job postings for junior positions asking for a degree OR equivalent experience.

    Not all inflation is created equal. Dont conflate demand push inflation with inflation caused by increases of the monetary base. Increasing min wage will lead to higher demand for goods which will increase prices. This will be the inflation until the market corrects itself by producing more goods.

    There are a number of studies that relate subjective well being and relative income. A person's happiness is partially based on his status relative to those around him. I thought this was accepted as fact at this point in time.

    That does not say that the effects of global warming will happen by 2000. That says that we had until 2000 to reverse global warming that will cause those effects in the future. Also it was just a single forecast. No all predicted outcomes are as dire but a lot are.

    And this is why Draepoon is such a worthless pos. He infracts people when others report instead of actually doing any investigative work to see if the reports are valid. I am pretty sure its time to start reporting everyone in mass.
