tell me more...

This actually sounds like fun, but I would like to see some examples because I'm not sure what you would call quality requirements. For argument sake, are you using Volere or IREB …

That sounds really strange to me, to the point that I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic.

The most comprehensive approach is to have an InfoSec policy portfolio which permeates into every corner of your organisation and dictates secure operating behaviours and mandates …

Well, I guess it won't hurt if I offer my services for PCI guidance for startups here :-) One thing to keep in mind is that PCI is a bare-minimum of security "best practices" that …

It's hard to correlate the two because there have been several policies put in place to reduce crime over the years, don't forget that our main industry is tourism and happy people…

That's good to hear. Hope your project works out!

Likewise, and also quite likely we are some of many thousands. Unfortunately I think in this case there are some people re-inventing the meaning of "digital" to signify young. Enou…

Out of curiosity, if you had received an application from a 40 something who has been "digital" since before the internet was deemed a human right, would you have felt comfortable …

I'm not sure I follow that reasoning, sorry. The big "eureka" moment was to start treating drug usage as a health issue instead of a criminal issue. It's not legal to buy or sell d…

From what I can remember, the original plan had some provisions for "assisted usage rooms" where trained personal would help guarantee that needles were clean and offer assistance …

It's not often that I have the opportunity to feel proud of the legislators in my home country, but Portugal has been on the leading edge of drug prevention and rehabilitation sinc…

I think it's normal for startups to try to get things for free, be it software or work hours, and that's OK up to a point, but once a company reaches a plateau of business activity…

I agree with you completely. Even our work schedules are still based on the mandated daylight times which were created so that factories wouldn't have to keep their lights on for t…

I'm an expat myself so I'm curious about this.. Were their visas tied to their work contract? Did they have their families living with them? As an anecdote, when I first moved abro…

>One problem with organizations that bill by the manhour--law and consulting--is that even if the employee output diminishes, the firm still bills the same rate. There isn't a lot …

Well, I would classify it as work because it was a social interaction with a comercial intent. If you were a contractor you could probably justify those expenses as part of your ac…

That sounds like a horrible place to work and the arguments are complete nonsense. To me, and maybe I'm just too cynical, but it sounds like the manager was telling you that the co…

The contrary belief is what is described in the article, where people are expected to stay in the office, or on-call for long hours to be valued as employees. The sad thing is how …

My first reaction when reading the title of this article was to think of a variation of the punchline for an old _macho_ joke: "because other men pretend to care". In my experience…

Because they don't "oblige themselves" to follow local regulation and are therefore able to offer services at lower rates, even at the expense of the occasional fine.

Thank you for this. I was getting pretty annoyed with the scroll down to select video, scroll up to watch video routine.

I hate it that in this day and age people would still be passed on a job they are qualified for and willing to do because of the way they chose to dress or ornaments they chose to …
