They don't time or limit your bathroom breaks, do they? That's some EST-like stuff.
I'm not generally a violent person, but could someone please shoot all of these people?
What till they ignore Ogged's application first.
3:Excellent idea! Very one-plus-one-equals-three!
"It's the people from sales," Penny tells me. "They're disgusting."
So, not disrupting everything then.

On top of that, it would definitely be Disruptive.
Dharmesh's culture code incorporates elements of HubSpeak. For example, it instructs that when someone quits or gets fired, the event will be referred to as "graduation." In my first month at HubSpot I've witnessed several graduations, just in the marketing department. We'll get an email from Cranium saying, "Team, just letting you know that Derek has graduated from HubSpot, and we're excited to see how he uses his superpowers in his next big adventure!" Only then do you notice that Derek is gone, that his desk has been cleared out. Somehow Derek's boss will have arranged his disappearance without anyone knowing about it. People just go up in smoke, like Spinal Tap drummers.
I kind of wish they'd embraced it fully and called it Carousel.
"the evolutionary level above coder"
That's a promotion where I come from.
For some reason Winston suddenly found himself thinking of Mrs Parsons, with her wispy hair and the dust in the creases of her face. Within two years those children would be denouncing her to the Thought Police. Mrs Parsons would be vaporized. Syme would be vaporized. Winston would be vaporized. O'Brien would be vaporized. Parsons, on the other hand, would never be vaporized. The eyeless creature with the quacking voice would never be vaporized. The little beetle-like men who scuttle so nimbly through the labyrinthine corridors of Ministries they, too, would never be vaporized. And the girl with dark hair, the girl from the Fiction Department -- she would never be vaporized either. It seemed to him that he knew instinctively who would survive and who would perish: though just what it was that made for survival, it was not easy to say.
Graduated, ajay. They graduated.
"We just didn't feel that strong connection we're looking for with Derek. It's us, not him."
Good luck with the job search!
Vaporiz, the startup that's disrupting dystopia!
Funny, everybody loves, or is encouraged to love, the buzzwords of mass-market self-salvation when they come from Tina Fey or some YouTube kid or Buzzfeed in a "Julia Child Fights the Patriarchy in 30 .gifs" listicle.
If I ever get around to founding a start up, part of the objective will be to focus of recruiting people who are Too Old For This Shit.
Danny Glover is never too busy for Excellence!
It's worth noting that when I say that everyone in this article should die in a fire, I include Dan Lyons as well.
Articles now not only have auto-loading video/audio, the video/audio is sometimes apparently an intrinsic part of the article and in this case I could not find a way to shut it off. So the title of the OP is wrong.
It's easy to mute the sound in Firefox. Not that I read the article.
You can stop autoplay in Chrome by requiring permission to run Flash. Way worth it.
This meeting is worse than Hitler. At least in terms of coming to a point.
Somebody found a metaphorical mass of T-34s and now we're moving again.
28: What a relief! Thought you were going commie on us for a moment there.
I love my job so much for not being this.
Wait, if the meeting is Hitler, doesn't moving it closer to its end mean that those were metaphorical T-34s? I'm confused, but am still willing to say you might be a Nazi.
I include Dan Lyons as well.
It was striking to me how, more or less the same time he was outed as FSJ, Lyons turned bitter, one-note, unfunny, and insight-free. I genuinely enjoyed FSJ, even as an Apple fan who found him sometimes off-base. It was not unlike Stephen Colbert's character, where you could laugh along even as he gored your ox. But I swear he hasn't written a worthwhile word since, either in the period when he kept the FSJ persona despite being outed, or under his own byline.
That he was a corporate shill is hardly surprising; it seems as if FSJ is the only interesting/thoughtful thing he's ever done.
Shilling for SCO is pretty evil. It would be a poorer, less innovative world today had SCO succeeded in kneecapping Linux.
This is really a great discussion. Thank you for taking time to provide us some of the useful and exclusive information with us. Keep on blogging!!
This is a shitty discussion. You should all be ashamed.
