If you are stressed at work just leave. No amount of tricks will make you feel better in a toxic enviroment. Also, why would you help a toxic company by staying, when you could help another company that respects people. Because people stay

Thanks! I have to try it.

Does it actually work? I might try it.

The same way you trust your surgeon. How do you know he will make you better and not kill you in an elaborate way?

I agree with you. The question then becomes: if you achieved this level of performance, isn't it better to work for yourself rather than work for somebody who all the time undervalues your performance? Isn't it better in the long

First time that I read a comment that reminds everybody that this is only one side of the story. Do you make the same comment on all stories? and if not, why not?

I would say it's money. And a lifestyle that resembles too much with a non stop party than anything else. Just my guess.

Great to hear it. Now only if they made a light weight homepage. Ditch the photo or lazy load it. And there is another problem: the homepage is mostly black. If I hit search it changes to an all white page. That really hurts my eyes.

That's exactly the point: exclude those people. The idea is not to have everybody pass the test.

In a society before Copernicus and Galileo that question would have been cutting edge science. So just stick to well understood things.

Ask questions that a 5th grader could answer. The level does not hove too be that high for it to be effective. Or... just ask science questions: "Is planet Earth flat?".

Why not use this to fund open source? Have a checkbox to disable ads if you really want to give people freedom. I just can't see how open source can compete without enough funds.

Easy. If the person can do an engineer's work they will be kept as an engineer. If they can't, an alternative role will be searched for them, for example a manager role. It's all about keeping the people you have and finding

Even if you were never on facebook, all it takes is for somebody to post a picture in which they can clearly see your face. That's your unique id. Then they will add more information to your profile gathered not from you, but from your

You put public transport instead. At least on some city centers this is already happening.

Hold your horses! It's just a comment on internet and I didn't think I had to treat all edge cases :)) Also, if you don't have enough context for something it doesn't mean you should pick any random context...

Depends on your location. In my country they are banned on highways, national roads and cities or in other words in all those places in which cars rule.

In my country they are banned on highways, national roads, cities. I was referring to that. I think banning them on congested roads will increase the demand for public transport which is what we should have on those road anyway.

by GoToRO 9y ago
Just ban cars. It's not that hard. We banned horses, why not cars?

"because working with other talented folks is often one of the most important work environment factors for talented and self-motivated people" Brilliant! now how do I filter companies based on this criteria? Serious question.

I've seen some pretty technical things done by some french developers, so for sure they have the talent. Why there are no noticeable companies coming out of France then? I just think the same, they are killing it with bureaucracy.

Easy. Realize that the front page of HN is a view of the world that is filtered heavilly (nothing wrong with that just to let you realize it) and the real world is out there. What you need to do is get a job at a real company, look at their

This is the problem when somebody creates something simple that just works: very quick there will be a lot of other people trying to add to it "just a little thing" and then you have a lot o complexity. It only stops when nobody c

They went back to a market that is not that cool but where the bar of entry is very high because real engineering is required: network equipment. On this market you deal with other companies, the prices of everything are very high, projects

Electing somebody and then not having any control over the decisions they vote is not 100% democracy... More like 1%.
