Ageism in Slovakia: Recruitment

In the best case some horrible CMS with some very basic graphics slapped on top of its out of the box layout.One older candidate who I interviewed turned out to be a catastrophe with made up stories of employment and perennial conflicts with his boss. A slightly older candidate whom we took on a short trial didn’t turn out well either: competent but very inflexible in her way of doing things with no inclination to learn new things.In the social scene, I’ve noticed similar traits as well in the different age groups.

Bad Sector – I/O Error in OS X while Backing Up

Having copied most of the files off I needed, but still short my main boot drive (I was already making the move to my backup generic 10.4 system I had created to try Adobe Lightroom), I decided to go for broke and run MediaScanner 2.1 throughout the entire drive, enabling autoreplacement…. on I/O errors and suggested to him soft failure instead, like Synchronize Pro X, allowing the user to continue to rescue what he can of the disk (with bad sectors, this seems to be a great deal as only the data from the bad sectors is lost).
