Are you being sarcastic? I repeated multiple times in my analysis that I think there most definitely is a problem with the tech industry, and I don't believe the answer is "women just don't like computers". I think the q

This incident looks horrible, and it's sad how terrifically disrespectful the administrative assistant was towards the department head. Events like this often serve (understandably) as explanations for why the tech industry's gend

What point are you intending to communicate here? That there is a stereotype that people interested in software engineering are "nerds" who are losers and picked on in school? That the stereotype is accurate, and "yet again&

I'm curious, did anyone on your team raise any ethical concerns in regards to the potential privacy violation? If not, how was the topic handled by employees/management?

If Company A (40 people) buys Company B (20 people) to become Company C with 60 people, Company B doesn't continue to operate and suddenly need to hire 20 people.

NJ/NY transplant here, currently living in SF. I went skiing regularly as a kid in the Adirondacks in upstate NY (~4-5 hour drive from NYC). And fantastic Quebec skiing is another 2-4 hours past that. Valid on the surfing and wine coun

It's certainly possible to build a gender-equal tech team. But to argue that all tech companies could build a gender-equal tech team, with the current hiring pool, is a hell of an assertion. Two years ago, the university I went to (t

Do keep in mind that smoking is probably the most harmful of the many common ways marijuana is consumed. Vaporizing or eating cannabis renders zero carcinogenic chemicals from smoke.

To me, Ruby feels like this ex-girlfiend I was completely infatuated with and eventually broke up with because I was too young to pay attention to the fact that her flaws were in all the right places instead of the ones that truly matter.

I don't disagree that this law could be passed. I'm asking, in regards to this specific bill, why you feel that porn being an "obscene" activity means that it should be blocked by a state-controlled censorship paywall.

by Archio 10y ago
Explain to me how your view that porn is obscene (morally? religiously?) necessitates a government-mandated censorship that can be removed with a $20 bribe. You have absolutely no business telling adults what content is unwholesome and what

The armed forces route makes sense. Could you elaborate examples regarding the journalist path?

The pattern I've sensed is that for most drugs, one death or injury is too much. However for alcohol, cigarettes, prescription drugs, motorcycles, even peanuts for those who are allergic - hey, that's life.

What is your point? I didn't say Kratom is harmless. All drugs can cause harm and all drugs have the potential for abuse. What I said was that Kratom is far less addictive and dangerous that typical opioids. A Kratom overdose is most l

This is an abomination. Schedule I, for a plant that is far less addictive and harmful that traditional opioids, and is used in treatment for opioids, while the country is in the midst of a full blown opioid addiction crisis? Sounds about r

Your background information of the previous administration is much appreciated. However, I don't think that that excuses any of the actions of the current administration.

We do have tons of alcohol deaths. But the idea here is that no one dies from alcohol today because their alcohol dealer slips in unknown amounts of toxic potentiators to cut costs (which is effectively what is happening with heroin et al.

Netflix has blocked VPNs for at least a few months now. Unless she uses VPNs for other things, she won't be using one anyway.

San Francisco has some of the highest property values in the world. By what definition is that a success? "Don't fuck with success" sounds here like "dont fuck with lowering obscene property values because then homeowner
