  • RE: Staying Successful

  • RE: Staying Successful

    This is similar to something HP has done, trying to predict if employees might leave and intervene to see if something can be done. I heard an interview with the...

    Fun little story, reminds me of The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, for some reason.

    Gary Varga (12/19/2014)

  • RE: Deleting Data

    Assuming we did have the technical framework in place to make someone globally "forgotten", what's to prevent the bad guys from abusing the system? This reminds me of that 1995...

  • RE: Deleting Data

    If you have an application that routinely deletes records that were previously inserted, then it implies there is something wrong with the design. Deleting records in a relational database is...
