Why don't you just tell these people to stop whining? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/05/business/h-1b-visa-tech-c... It sounds like you have a cushy gig at a Unicorn and you're projecting your

Are you serious? You think a glorified taxi company has put more peoples' lives in danger than a company that knowingly sold, deployed, and signed off on an health instrument and lab work that simply did not work? An instrument and lab

You didn't answer my question. OP claimed that: "If Travis Kaladick or whatever his name is were running the company, the narrative would be very different." Now, given that Uber and Travis have been disparaged by both the pr

How would the narrative be different? Travis Kalanick has been absolutely shit on by the press, and the HN crowd in general, and what he has done is arguably much less egregious than what Elizabeth Holmes has done.

"If I am so wrong, crazy and stupid, why do so very many people need to step up and inform me of my error?" You're putting words into peoples' mouths - no one has called you crazy or stupid. In fact, most people are not

"Outside their app snapchat as close to zero visibility. No share buttons on the web, no snap ghosts in commercials (like "add us on facebook")..." That's exactly the point. Snapchat has absolutely no interest in as

This isn't entirely true and it paints too negative of a picture. There are culinary traditions in the US just as there are anywhere else - traditional southern food is excellent: Shrimp and Grits, biscuits, tasso and country hams, cor

I'm not really sure what you are arguing for or against or whose point you're addressing because the things you bring up are tangential to my original comment, which I still stand by and don't believe has been refuted. "

I'm not educated in the subject, so I'm asking sincerely, but wasn't Higgs boson first speculated in a "mathematical / probabilistic" model, before being empirically confirmed through direct observation?

I disagree - some of my best managers weren't exactly the best programmers. They did, however, have a mind for smart architectural decisions and knew when to "back off".

You're severely underestimating the impact U.S. business has on other countries. A trade war with any of the countries you have listed would harm them much more than it would harm the US. China holds about 8-9% US debt. Their entire e

Well, sort of. Libertarianism is often (incorrectly) described as "socially liberal, fiscally conservative". But libertarianism isn't easily defined on the Left/Right spectrum. Two people can hold completely different vi

I'm not sure why you're being down voted, but I generally agree. And I'm not passing judgement either - there is nothing wrong inherently wrong with drinking or chastity - but it is an undeniable part of our culture.

Why? This is basically how the business world operates. There is nothing wrong with a private business wining and dining a potential client to swoon and sell them something.

This comment boils down to: you're wrong and you're stupid. Also, and quite ironically, you have misinterpreted and are misapplying the D.K. effect. Can you care to explain why the above wouldn't be true? Does an extra layer

Considering the entire population of India is an absurd premise when discussing Asian-Indian representation in the US tech sector. Asian-Indians make up about 1% of the US population - I don't know how many work in tech in the USA, but
