@SunitaT0: Yes they can be and they will be used. You cannot expect a technology to be all used for clean purposes. That is why laws need to be strict and every drone has to be accounted for. I don't know how they intend...

@SunitaT0: We've had such problems in the past, the problem you call "stagnant fund" problem, but then management was quick to think on its footsteps and redesigned the entire stage by stage development and testing parts...

@SachinEE: Mostly it is that, but also more sometimes. Regular updates come with nothing new, however updates that come after a healthy period means serious update and you cannot overlook that.

@kstaron: Of course there should be a work life balance but that may not be understood well by the governing body. What they might think of as fun may end up being stressful for you. So every employee under stress should...

@Technocrati: Unpaid time is just common in a technical firm. Even my one. Paychecks aren't spot on with timings but when they come (and they do come unless we did something terribly wrong and we become benched with the...

@SunitaT0: Most employees don't have that luxury you do, maybe you are high up in position that is why you are entitled to all these events as you call them that help you to relax yourselves. It is true however, that...

"Adressing data risks and at the same time taking advantage of anonymous information without crossing a few boundaries isn't easy as it sounds." Of course it isn't easy, but again, it should be, if it was then hackers would...

@SunitaT0: I like this kind of an Omni-Channel presentation, I might have to take up on your idea and present it to our boss. If you think about it, CEO as a consumer makes perfect sense. He can tell what the omni channel...

@SunitaT0: You are right. Office politics can make or break an individual , but in most cases it ends up breaking an individual. Not only that, office politics increase the stress factor of an employee who is already dealing...

@SunitaT0: That may be the case. I agree with you, that the woes of employees in the workplace aren't tended to unless the company places importance on employee satisfaction as well.

@Stratustician: Not always. If you make too much friendship with a person, they end up asking you for a favour, and in the technical department, it is these favours you have to get away from, because they include doing others...

Perhaps there is a version 9 but they do not want to admit it. That could explain why they don't want to exlain. Perhaps Windows 9 was a continuation of the Windows 8 disaster. There might be tremendous battles within Microsoft...

Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
