I don't give a shit about what the "motivations" of the company are. I said:
> This strategy implicitly assumes
That is the real objective assumption that any implementation of this strategy makes (or the other "asshole" choices).
Good intentions are worthless if they can't work mathematically.
- sethev 9y agoWhy did you feel the need to even comment if you don't care about Duolingo's motivations for hiring people? Of course not every company could have 50:50 with the current pool of software engineers but that's a trivial point. It's true by definition. EDIT: it's clear that you believe ideology is what's motivating this, despite your claim that you don't care about motivation.
- infinity0 9y agoIf it's a "trivial point" why is this article hitting the front page? Why do you feel the need to turn a "trivial point" into a discussion about motivations and my supposed mis-assumptions of those motivations? This article is hitting the front page because some people think it's impressive. I don't think it's impressive nor do I think it's solving any real issues. I pointed out in very neutral terms why it's not solving any real issues, but some people some to feel offended by my pointing out a "trivial point".
