Separately, Jong has also alleged that Apple subjected her to a hostile work environment after a senior member of her team, Blaine Weilert, sexually harassed her. After she complained, Apple investigated and Weilert reportedly admitted to touching her “in a sexually suggestive manner without her consent,” the complaint said. Apple then disciplined Weilert but ultimately would not allow Jong to escape the hostile work environment, requiring that she work with Weilert on different projects. Apple later promoted Weilert.

As a result of Weilert’s promotion, the complaint said that Apple placed Weilert in a desk “sitting adjacent” to Jong’s in Apple’s offices. Following a request to move her desk, a manager allegedly “questioned” Jong’s “willingness to perform her job and collaborate” with Weilert, advising that she be “professional, respectful, and collaborative,” rather than honoring her request for a non-hostile workplace.

Now instead of just querying the goddamn database, a one line fucking SQL statement, I have to deal with the user team

Exactly, you understand very well the purpose of microservices. You can submit a patch if you need that feature now.

Funnily enough I’m the technical lead of the team that handles the user service in an insurance company.

Due to direct access to our data without consulting us, we’re getting legal issues as people were using addresses to guess where people lived instead of using our endpoints.

I guess some people really hate the validation that service layers have.

I also have a similar experience, I was mugged at knife point and spit on by two adolescents. After that I was jumpy around groups of teens.

That said , I do not think my fear of teens was rational, neither was it healthy. Only a small minority of teens will mug people. Fearing a whole group for the actions of the few is in human nature, but it is something we must fight against.

I mean what is the end goal if women are in fear of men ? You can probably reduce violent crime even more, but it remains a rare event. Only 31 out of 1000 people were victims of a violent crime in the UK in 2010. If that doesn’t work, what remains? Sex segregation ?
