    I would recommend only issuing a single MFA device. If you only issue 1, then the employee is forced to come to IT if/when they lose it to get a new one issued. IT will need to use…

    I think you're greatly overestimating the influence IT departments have over purchasing decisions at large companies. Not only does management rarely consider their input, it's com…

    Do NOT use Google Authenticator unless every account you use it for has an alternate MFA option (backup codes, etc) that you've confirmed work. It does not sync to your Google acco…

    Actually, I think you'd see wages reflect peoples' willingness to do a job. So for example, you'd probably see higher wages for a job cleaning up human feces than for a job driving…

    In the "USB-A/B" section, they're all labelled "Type-A", the 3rd and 4th should be labelled "Type B". It's also missing - mini-b 4 wire (older phones, etc) - micro-b 4 wire (most e…

    People don't consider it a reason not to go on an interview because 95-99% of job postings don't include it because they know nobody else does and they can get away with it and app…

    Of course the final salary is the last thing negotiated, I don't think anyone is going to argue against that point. What job seekers are begging for is a salary range being include…

    Salary is the single most important thing to know about a position. If a job doesn't pay enough to cover my mortgage, I couldn't care less about the commute, the inclusive culture …

    I'm guessing the system was built to handle extended (8-bit) ascii, which contains the accented French characters. Upgrading a system of this size (and potentially many other syste…
