With a proper approach for the practice to be considered, contractors are the personals who has to be inline with the compliance for a better understanding of the labors to be benefited in all possible ways which in turn would give a platform for the productivity to be raised in every possible way. <br /><br />Most of the contractors today skip the fact of laws to be considered there of that keeps on updated on a regular basis for the successful end up. One link I would like to share here, which explains the labor laws with the updated stuffs.

Choosing an esoteric language is not a guarantee that you'll find top talent any easier.<br /><br />I.e there could be 20,000 C++ gurus, but only 10 Haskell gurus. <br /><br />What you *do* get with an esoteric language is lots of tinkerers though, guys that played with the language for several years, in no actual projects (it's esoteric, after all, not many actual projects use it), and consider themselves 'above the average' because they "know" it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03191172129959124862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1597186260874280667.post-16457744082767369222012-02-19T10:12:04.526-08:002012-02-19T10:12:04.526-08:00These are exactly the kinds of issues we wrestled ...These are exactly the kinds of issues we wrestled with when we made the vocabulary. In our case, we had over 250K "skills" of which only 16% were used more than once; I think I've seen every possible permutation of "microsoft powerpoint." My emerging view is that there is no silver bullet---each decision to make a skill more or less general, split it, remove it etc. takes some judgement. That being said, I think there's hope for at least creating automated ways of finding badly performing tags. Managing the skill ontology can/should be a blog post in itself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14545375829531307836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1597186260874280667.post-43784283441621729382012-02-19T09:43:32.566-08:002012-02-19T09:43:32.566-08:00I work in NLP in the bio domain.

The role of ontology as controlled vocabulary is a big one as gene names are full of synonyms and different ways to spell them (do you abbreviate, spell out or use the greek letter alpha?). One thing I'm curious about here is how to make them more specific. Some of the skills could be either admin or programming (mongodb and hadoop), and I wonder how the different modes would pay differently. <br />It's probably as hard as identifying the species a paper's gene is about as they often have identical names too.Mental Contrailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02376882854859728897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1597186260874280667.post-2026520585607172252012-02-19T08:31:27.223-08:002012-02-19T08:31:27.223-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Cody Riouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00479811637769513644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1597186260874280667.post-80206774560943697202012-02-19T08:24:12.358-08:002012-02-19T08:24:12.358-08:00Yes but Murex is a god awful system in an awful in...Yes but Murex is a god awful system in an awful industry, only a sadomasochist would work on Murex or someone in it purely for the money hence the ridiculous contracting rates it commandsanonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01451552612618807782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1597186260874280667.post-9359309008796814222012-02-19T08:08:39.597-08:002012-02-19T08:08:39.597-08:00All these rates are very low.
