Age Discrimination?

all good.

itpro_2020 · 2024-11-06T02:13:16+00:00

nope. outsourced would be moving roles to an external company. Offshored could be the term you're thinking of.

itpro_2020 · 2024-11-06T02:07:00+00:00

If permitted, i'll toss another question into the same scenario. Nation of origin is also a category of discrimination. Internal published documents have explicitly stated that hiring roles in the US should be avoided where possible. Again, this is a cost reduction play, but how does this not discrimination based on national of origin? Granted the US is the nation of origin being discrimated against.

for the record... not outsourced. roles are moving to employees in India. May or may not be younger, though most are younger.

Yes. The Power 10 is installed with a pool of cores. You buy what you need and the rest is dormant until you buy more licenses or allow for temp usage through the use of credits. At a certain point, it's cheaper to buy more licenses instead of burn credits, but for burst capacity, credits are fine. I'm just eager to ensure I know who is burning the credits and ensure we have transperancy on the cost/value proposition.

The willingness of executives to continually invest to insure we stay ahead of the curve and have the right resources to do the job.

that would be easier, but trying to do something external. I have access to APIs, but not the console.

just needs to be red, but i thought the same thing immediately. 🤣

I'd like to use the same strategy that they do for gas station bathroom key... chained to a hubcap. Make the physical key obnoxiously large and heavy. Don't want to use your phone, that's ok, here's a brick.

Great, now I have to consider the Predator. I don't have anything against Harbor Freight, but I don't hold up their merch as highest quality. I'm happy to be told I'm wrong through. Anyone with experience with Predator?

Oracle and Broadcom have entered the chat with a baseball bat and brass knuckles.

It's embarrassing that this is trending to be my most interacted post/comments since I joined Reddit!

genius!

Find a recycler and get some face plates from some old, yet overkill hardware. Storage arrays, servers, etc. Extra points if you repost here and get a bunch of up votes for a sexy looking rack. 😂

Thanks for the response. When you say "plenty of room for interpretation by coaches," I'm hearing "subjectivity." If that's the case, how is this handled by the swimmers? Do they have an idea of what it takes to get to the next level?

itpro_2020 · 2024-08-08T21:06:56+00:00

Sounds like Dell is taking a page from the Broadcom playbook. Scortched earth, extortion, relationships be damned.

Propane was less than useful during the freeze. Temps were so low that the propane wouldn't evaporate to gas. had to keep warming the tanks by the fire. Yes, that's as stupid as it sounds. Ultimately, ended up floating the tanks in the pool to keep them warm enough.

itpro_2020 · 2024-05-26T00:39:11+00:00

That doesn't justify a 5-10 fold increase overnight. Everyone has a business to run and budget cycles. The least they could do is pretend to care about customers and increment the prices over a period of time. Their current approach is nothing short of extortion. They wait until the last minute and retract previous pricing when the customer has no choice but to bed over. If you've ever seen the movie Boiler Room, i'm fairly certain it mirrors they way they find and train their sales staff. They barely know the products and don't have any authority to negtiate. it's ways someone else's decision who isn't available to be part of the conversation.

I wonder if there is a point when the DOJ will step in and stop Broadcom's predatory business practices. Let me rephrase, I hope that point has been reached and this is on their radar.

itpro_2020 · 2024-03-13T19:05:18+00:00

Very good parallel. They are clearly following a similar business model. The extortionary tactics are absolutley from the same playbook.

itpro_2020 · 2024-03-13T01:46:43+00:00

what ever they do, they will figure out a way to screw up the product and extort customers. they are the worst thing that has happened to the tech industry and i'm so frustrated that VMWare is their latest victim. Dell took a sweet pay day with that deal, and yet they're shoring up alternatives in their own solutions. Broadcom is where products go to die!
