If you live in the bay area, first you'd need to save $200k for a downpayment on a house. That would probably take 3-5 years at that salary if you can be frugal. After purchasing a house, your mortgage is going to be something like $

I sincerely hope this fails in the worst way possible, but it will be wildly successful of course.

You don't have to click on an ad to be tracked. Also, you don't find it even a little concerning that Google reads all your email?

Mark Zuckerberg is a liar who has demonstrated that he will do and say whatever is in his and Facebook's best interests. If you believe anything other than that, you're a fool.

I like how an official donation is an acceptable way to get your kid into a school but a backdoor bribe is not. What is the effective difference? I'll answer my own question. The school and government get their share. So, it's

I've offered to give many interviewers access to my private github repos so they could review my code and see how I've worked. I have ~5 relatively large projects, full tested, where I was the sole, full-stack dev. 1 out of 20+ to

East coast cities don't have as many homeless as West coast for a single reason. Weather. Pretending like there's something inherently wrong with West coast cities is disingenuous. You even have cities bussing them out to SF. h

Are you suggesting we've actually TRIED rehabilitation? If so, I think our definitions differ. We haven't tried anything besides incarceration.

It's the business owner's responsibility to manage their employees. Your work isn't acceptable? Fired or no raise. Your work is exemplary? Promoted or raise. Pretty simple.

Um, no. Just because YOU made more money working for tips doesn't mean it works that way for the majority. A simple search turns up plenty of evidence to the contrary.

This is bizarre. A real lack of understanding applied here.

Maybe we need a law that simply makes it illegal to track any user on any network for any reason. Is there any legitimate reason to track a users that is purely in their own interests? Also, how many of these articles does it take before p

Everything old is new again. Hard to believe you can start an email marketing company now and still be successful. Just goes to show old, boring markets have room for new players.

I couldn't think of something more pointless than seeking that which will never be found. No one knows and no one is going to know. We'd be much better off seeking understanding of our fellow man than looking for some "sour

as no one really believes the earth is flat, it's just attention seeking behavior and trolling. You're underestimating the stupidity of a vast portion of the population. There are plenty of people who believe not only that the

To be fair, this could also just be a PR response to diffuse the situation. You don't really know who is being honest here.

Why is anyone still using FB/Whatsapp/Instagram? It seems the vast majority just don't care at all about privacy.

If you vehemently disagree with the core business of a company and you can easily find an equivalent job at a better company, why does your position in that company have any impact on your decision to work for that company? How is building

It's pretty clear at this point that if you still work for Facebook you don't care whether they do evil or not and, if you do, the money trumps your morals.
