Yeah that's fair, but none of the original founding members are still active within IBM, so the intent has essentially been burnt out. They are remnants long forgotten. Condoleezza Rice however, is still alive and well, and is actively

There is a colossal difference between making a shitty decision that doesn't directly affect the lives of thousands of people, and ones that do. I don't care what her intention was at the time. Just read http://www.drop

I hope so. We're moving into a phase where there you can grab information about anything, from nearly anywhere, at almost any time. There is little advantage to decision making based on cemented ideals anymore. This new era has exposed

Very sad. I just deleted everything from my Dropbox and my account, sent them an email saying "I do not do business with war criminals." Good luck Dropbox, I hope you un-fuckup somehow.

The reason failure is OK is because there are a variety of factors outside of your control, and your ability to succeed may or may not depend on that variable. Whether it did, you'll most likely never know. The possibility of failure b

I always tell people this straight up. I'm about the money, everything I do is about the money. I just really REALLY do not want to work at any company until I'm 50, life is seriously way too short. My circle of friends, most of u

>Also, the name (bastardizing the Japanese pronunciation of Godzilla) always feels somewhat racist to me. That is extremely reaching, like on a hole new level. Do you get this offended in real life too if a coworker makes a joke? Genui

He said I'm "lucky to make this much" because I have no education, despite nobody else on the team being able to successfully and efficiently replace me. I'm leaving in one month, only because the project is wrapping up

I see life as a trifecta. The first point, is things we do as a hobby, the second, things we do for leisure, and the third, things we do to sustain ourselves. If one task can fulfill all three points, you have it made.
