   Well at the very least one thing it has in common with the Eiffel Tower is that both were initially met with universal derision. The Eiffel Tower is now one of the most iconic and beloved landmarks in Paris...time will tell if the "Ve

   Don't know that I agree that it's "never going to happen." Will everyone switch to the four day week? Probably not. But experiments like this normalize the idea of it. I negotiated a four day week and examples like t

   1. If you think the people advocating for this project are screeching, I can't even imagine how you'd describe the people who are against it. 2. 2013 is not decades ago. 3. Still, two blocks/a five minute walk. I don't t

    1. Characterizing support for the affordable housing project as "screeching YIMBYs" is incredibly unfair. Much of the advocacy for this project is coming from local support organizations for seniors and the homeless, such as the

    Yes, like the homeless. I'm not exactly sure if you're trying to refute a point I made...In my experience the greatest impediment to helping the homeless or rent-burdened comes from NIMBYs and excessive local control. 100% afford

    I agree, the precedent being set is the worst part of this. And I do think that we "overpaid," in the sense that this erodes any sense of trust and fairness in NYC/NYS government (which I think is critical to a smoothly runn

    As someone who lives in Long Island City, the opposition to HQ2 seems mostly coming from a vocal minority. Sure, most people are not in favor of the tax breaks, but they're also primarily in favor of Amazon coming in general[0]. Ther

    Our application does only show reviews from your personal network. Well, close. The app has a Q&A format (think Instagram meets Stack Overflow), and you see both questions and answers from your network. You can also see the user that

    Yes, your "feed" is populated with answers and questions about products from the people you follow. We give a few people who you can opt to follow when onboarding. Because you can see other users who answered a question asked by

    The startup I work for, Masse[0], is attempting to solve this issue. More or less a platform for product reviews with a social network component to see exactly who is recommending a product. I've written a little about it here [1][2].

    This article strikes me as unnecessarily negative. This only began to roll out as of Jan 1, and the dust is still settling. Even if it's not perfect, it's still an improvement over the previous situation and I'm sure it wil

    Funny to see early predictions about the .NET ecosystem: "Perhaps I am wrong, but let me state what I believe about this stuff. ...C# is not really important as it will never reach the 'mass' of VB..."

    That "famous slide" really rings true for me. F# allowed me to forget (or at least not worry about) a TON of OO design patterns. Data goes in, transformation happens, data comes out. I do like that F# is very practical about OO
