Kroger is shuttering stores temporarily to pressure union to concede. Their offer is below the poverty levels set by the state! Their CEO took $15.4M home last year (450 times their average employee) and the company announced 7.5B in stock buybacks!! But now they cry poor, and want to stiff the workers.

Declining Approval, Historic S...

On #hiring and #interviewing...

Many ask for it, but no #employer has a legitimate need to know your #salary history. Feel free to decline to provide that; it's none of their business.

Employers say "Oh, but we need to know it. If we offer too little, they might decline our offer!". It's B.S.

If they want to know whether you'll decline an offer, they can make an #offer. You'll either accept it, decline it, or offer to negotiate it. That's how negotiation works, and an offer of employment is absolutely a #negotiation.

The real reason they want this information is because they desperately want to avoid accidentally offering you more than the #minimum amount you will accept. If the position is worth $X to the company, they don't want to offer you $X. They want to offer you $Y, the lowest possible number that keeps you interested in the position. If they don't know what you made in your last job, figuring that number out is much, much harder. Stick to your guns. Your value to the company shouldn't be "approximately what my last position was worth to my previous company".

Push back. If someone from #HR tells you "Oh, but salary history is part of our standard process", politely decline. If they want to #hire you, they'll skip that step. And if they won't modify their #process for your circumstances, maybe you don't want to work for that company, because they won't be willing to vary any of their other standard processes even if your needs require it.

This is, what I tried to say about #Tor #Browser.
You need at least, a #Minimum of #Trustworthyness to hope, they strip the #bad Parts out of #Firefox, but you'll never know, if there's a #ZeroDayExploit out in the Wilderness.
This rules for EVERY Browser.

@vosje62 Ik denk dat #Madlener qua #juridisch aspect gelijk heeft. Dan maar een #helmplicht voor allen en vooral een #minimum leeftijd. Veertien vind ik nog veel te jong. Iets met hersentjes die nog niet volgroeid zijn.

En nog los daarvan: er zijn autootjes te koop waar je niet eens een #rijbewijs voor nodig hebt. Reden waarom deze autootjes niet massaal over de #toonbank gaan? De #prijs…

States like #California, #WashingtonState, and #Florida raised their #minimum #wages this year, but others, like #Texas and #Indiana, are still stuck at $7.25 an hour - unchanged since 2009. How can we let millions of workers fall behind while costs keep rising? It is 2019, and it is time for fair wages nationwide.

@kkarhan

thanks for the reply! far from being discouraged, i appriciate your engagement. i will try to be reasonably brief in my reponse to your points and give a general update on progress and objective.

> scout out existing solutions

i have seem similar #webapp implementation, i think so far for "that kind" of chat app, the chat app is able to demonstrate similar basic functionality. for a wider adoption, the user interface needs to be more appealing, but i think its important to have a working proof-of-concept first. the project is specifically aiming to be a #javascript #localFirst #webapp.

a couple notable similar implementation to mine are:
- https://github.com/cryptocat/cryptocat
- https://github.com/jeremyckahn/chitchatter
(im sure there are many more, but i think my approach is yet different and unique to the ones i've come across.)

> DO NOT DIY ENCRYPTION!

this is indeed a reccomended practice i have seen several times. here is a previsous reddit post on the matter: https://www.reddit.com/r/cryptography/comments/1cint8h/what_are_your_thoughts_on_subtlecrypto_vs_wasm ... tldr; the underlying implementation provided by the browser is the best way to go. i have implemented the #encryption using the #webcrypto #api. i aim to not use a library for this.

i generally try to word things in a way that users can provide feedback on features. the app is still in a very early stage, but has a reasonable amount of features. im generally open to requests and questions.

> minimum viable product

what you see as the chat app is also the #minimum #viable #product. i think its sufficiently demonstrates the basic functionality of a chat app. i think the next step is to make the app more stable and user friendly.

those other apps youve mentions ive come across before. what sets my approach apart is that mine it's purely a webapp. with what id like to describe as #p2p #authentication over #webrtc, im able to remove reliance on a backend for #authenticate #data #connections. in some cases, bypass the internet (wifi/hotspot). while there are several ways to #selfhost, in this approach of a #javascript implementation, im able to store large amounts of data in the browser so things like images and #encryptionKeys can be #selfhosted" in the browser. while this form has nuanced limitations, it also has interesting implications to security and privacy.

there are many nice features from the different apps you mentioned and i think i have some unique features too. the bottle neck in this project is that i dont put in enough time to the app.

> feel free to slowly ibtegrate them.

this is basically already my approach to get the app to where it is now.

thanks for the luck, take care and i hope you stay tuned for updates.
