How much weight it adds to the laptop? Does it increase battery life? It obviously not gonna increase RAM, likely increase SSDs because OWC sell them... It looks terrible tbh. How is this better than using dongles?

I saw the MBP 2016. I was very happy and went and bought a old MBP 2015 with retina at a discounted rate... I'm a happy camper and lousy early adopter.

I find it's more of communication problem, because what you assume they know does not match the reality of the situation. Like you ask "can you program?" A mechanical engineer who did a little VBA could apply for that job... People who stay in school all their life rarely get opportunity to be current and relevant stuff used today. This is referring to new grads. They just celebrated a huge life achievement without actually knowing what they don't know with a :D face... some more resourceful ones would find these kind crack-the-interview stuff and maybe get a job - to know what you know for compensating what you don't know. I'm wondering what if tech hiring reach out to students in school and learn what hiring people don't know and work with school to teach what students should know would probably have saved a lot of time... Again, this refers to new grads. I've seen too many not getting jobs these days.

Well. Communication problem exists with professional hirings as well. I blame engineers' lack of empathy (both interviewer and interviewee).

If the person who has the power to do that knows it, might as well fire them... why even bother? The person is politically-savvy generally savvy enough to smell it ahead and get promoted else where...

I'm curious. What would be a good reaction? Not reacting and accepting that's only truth from now on? Reacting respectfully saying why you think there are more than one answer, then continue getting pushed?

When I test people's reaction, it's generally not because I want to hire them. I just want to learn about people. If the purpose is hiring, overreacting but good coder will not take the job, under-reacting but good coder will not stay long because he/she will get angry eventually, over-reacting and taking the job seems desperate... I just don't see what can possibly get out this kind of test from a hiring perspective.

I've recently read "Man Search for Meaning" by Victor Frankl. I think it's the comfort that we live in make us wonder if there's more to it. We don't struggle with survival anymore. World is now covered by advertisement to urge population to need more useless things. Things we think are innovations are really just facilitating those needs - the need for acceptance, attention, respect, entertainment. Getting bored? get some vines. Lonely? Check Facebook. We don't really feel better doing those things after a moment. It wears off. You do it again.

So is education. You get some, then you get some more. So is work, you get a job, then you get promoted. You know exactly where you are going. You know exactly how much money you need to live comfortably. Maybe you will find a SO, get some babies like your mom keep asking you to do. Maybe that's the way to go. Well, you get to see them for a couple hours before and after work everyday. Maybe go hippie? Go all kumbaya. Maybe find Jesus? It's a peaceful, harmonic society. Another day in paradise!

Realize you are not the only one suffering existential crisis. I have no business giving you advice. All I can say is, I'm in your shoes. All I can think of is to seize control of my own life. Truly understand something thoroughly that you are good at and passionate about. Not for your employer, not for trying to gain attention or respect. Just for you. Take whatever opportunities you've got to travel, to meet other cultures. There are so many possibilities, and you will power to choose your own path if you just be extremely good at something. Know at what point money loses its value. Be good and go forward.

How's it resemble "for lease"? They didn't sue people for repairing, they sued for illegally obtaining their internal documentation.

We are talking about our "right" to force other to do something rather than protecting ourselves from being forced.

It should be business issue, not an actual human right issue.

While I hate companies suing people for repairing their own properties, "right" has been overused so many places. What a sensational word! I have the "right" to not being sued! What?

I would advocate companies certify other entities as repairing authorities or just do a good job themselves; providing the support. Of course it will reduce their product sale and that would be a huge deal to us consumers as well because we want them to do well and providing better product next round.

However, it is dangerous that we use sale as THE primary measure. I believe companies should take pride in the quality of their products and services. They should inspire customer loyalty, not unethical growth to please Wall Street.

I can relate. 2 things: - get leaner - get more solitude time

That's really inspiring how much passion he has for his work... such talent and work ethic. Back to work! Umph!

I wonder what are the other arguments from his 2 advisers. They had a clear competitive advantage, and question should have been posted by both advisers as they have been described to be very qualified. So, what else do they know to be true?

Yeah... Most of personal systems suck, especially old people's personal systems... Like in this case, it's their own personal emails got hacked. Director probably don't even know how to setup 2 factor authentication and using the same password everywhere. One service got hacked, he's name and email is on the list with password. It happens clearance process is not well protected even today. So, yeah, its shit, it's just too easy... Then again, don't do it if you don't want to get caught. There are pretty good security "avengers" as well.

He is 15. He probably doesn't know what it even means, just following trending social media.

This is just a dump of their "phonebook". Not even close to OPM hack... Sensationalist article.
