>"Contrary to what we expected (and probably contrary to what you expected as well!), masking gender had no effect on interview performance." I've seen quite a few studies pointing out this "confidence gap" now

Just to be clear, men do vocal fry and uptalk(ending sentences with upward inflection/making it sound like a question) too. Just less often. And not all women use uptalk and vocal fry. Uptalk is more common in women: http:/&#x2F

This would be a fantastic additional thing to monitor for. It was my first thought after hearing the voice modulation clips-- even in a manly voice, someone saying, "Oh I totally sound like a dude" sounded quite feminine since mos

All of these issues with cities can be addressed. In many cities they aren't being addressed currently...but they can be. Natural/alive areas -- parks, and greenery on sidewalks. Space and privacy-- better materials can be used to

Again with the security is not a 1-fix kind of thing. You put a lot of measures in place to make things secure. This is just one of many security measures that should be in place. The enemy has breached the outer wall, but now we have 3 mor

I would think conversations would be the biggest thing in this case. Say this computer is in a meeting room-- you could get business details picked up on the microphone, and the camera would verify who was speaking. There are many details i

Accept that frustration, fear, and doubt are just part of the job. Those feelings don't mean you're a bad software dev or a coward, they're just the natural reaction to consistently facing the unknown. Sometimes you have to s

That would cost money, as opposed to 1¢ of tape doing the same job.

Not surprising. I'm not sure if it's still the case, but growing up they used leather belts where I'm from. Pretty sure it's legal. To me that's worse than a riding crop.

Cool to read someone else is the same way! My eyes have always watered when I laugh, when I'm really happy, or just excited about something. What gets annoying is when I'm even slightly upset or having a disagreement with someone,

If you're an only kid it's still 3 people splitting rent instead of 2. If you have a large family and they're all pitching in, it could be even lower. Deposits to move out, needing a bigger emergency fund, you have to go gro

Just sign up and never post any content to it. They'll still get -some- data off you, but frankly it's a lot of the same data they would get even if you didn't have an account.

The thing is there are other websites giving that historical data away for free. Their affiliate accounts haven't been shut down (yet?). So PriceZombie just can't compete. Makes me kind of wonder if they were just the "top&qu

This. And even if the "average" person in a study works a certain way, you might just be one of the outliers. People vary a lot and you have to figure out what works for you.

On the other hand I've seen things get released -too- early, everyone decides, "Boy this sucks." and they never come back. Sometimes things really aren't done enough yet.

Yes, this! Praise effort. Tell them it's okay to fail, heck it's even GREAT to fail because each failure puts you closer to success. It's not a "You are talented or not". Sure some people start out with an advantage
