There shouldn't be any criteria other than your own.
Human beings evolved to make sense of chaos through stories, judging others is a way to create a story for them, stereotypes are stories over groups of people. It's not wrong, it's how we're wired.
In the receiving end of a judgment, it's a fools errand to hope everyone thinks of you in the way you want them to, thinking that way is probably one of the hallmarks of narcissism.
On the giving end of judgments, I think there's an overwhelming sense of guilt for not judging everyone positively, in the hopes to be an unattainable goal of "goodness" that's part of our culture because of liberalism which itself grew out of Christianity.
As a culture, we've metastasized into these behaviors, nowadays everybody is worried of being perceived "positively" because of narcissism and perceiving others as "good" because of guilt of having the wrong feelings.
There have been countless statistical anomalies on all elections since 2004; like voting centers with 0 abstention and 100% votes pro-government on extremely remote locations without oversight from the opposition.
But please, continue lecturing me on my country's electoral and voting system.
>It has a socialist majority because previously the rich bleed them dry
BS. The system was always open enough that you could make something of yourself.
>Now the boot is on the other foot and the socialists are starving out the middle and upper classes.
Except the upper and middle classes still have money to buy products at exorbitant prices. Who do you think are the people who are starving to death, having to kill wild dogs and pigeons to be able to eat something?
>Meanwhile the US continues to pressure the socialist government through sanctions in order to break a government that they don't approve of. Whilst the oil price remains low, the socialist government can't profit enough to get back on track.
There is no track to get back to, Chavez,his XXI century revolution and his cronies have always been about stealing as much as they can.
>The innocents, including children are going to starve.
Not only that, another factor to take into account is that very few Spanish companies are willing to sponsor a work visa, and, don't even get me started on the perma-intern scam for professionals with 10years of experience.
The irony of your communist commentary is not lost on me, you say we shouldn't in/out group while you're in/out grouping people in bosses vs workers.
I'm a worker and on my last position I was at an outsourcing firm that while pretending to care about its employees underpayed us while overcharging their clients, whenever we wanted to get a raise the goalposts of what was necessary were moved so it wasn't achievable and the overwork was masked behind a "we care about quality" attitude. Given all of this understandably we had a very high burn rate for devs.
I decided to grow up and begin to figure out how to do my own selling so I can charge what I want, work on the projects that I want and the hours that I want. I don't blame "Neoliberal capitalists" for my own failures, it's self-defeating and childish to not take control over your own destiny.
Very true, the thing is, companies go for developers with tons of OSS code and conferences both as speakers and attendees for two reasons:
First is the fact that you become a known quantity, OSS code is code that you have produced and that any prospective employer can look at and see its "quality". It also solidifies you as more of a domain expert which in turn allows you to get better wages.
Second, having employees with OSS contributions and speaking at conferences is good for the bottom line of employers, they can "gloat" more easily on how they have the "top talent" and are thought leaders of industry. This in turn allows them to charge their clients more and lets the find prospects easier.
Congressional hearing? Regardless of the fact that fb pretty much holds the same position of the government and helps spread it, why would there be a congressional hearing on a private company doing what they want with their platform.
We have always been free to stop using fb or roll an alternative.
