Pretty sure half of my office at my white collar job wouldn't show up if they started drug testing. But I imagine if we interviewed 20 people for a position, we would most certainly not have 18 no-shows.

I think getting the facts right is important. If the number of millionaires is "not the point", why even include the figure in a comment in the first place?

CNBC [1] says there are 10.8 millionaires in the U.S. alone. 13 seems a little low for the total worldwide count. [1]: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/03/24/a-record-number-of-americans...

With Meteor, I wanted legos but they provided an assembled fortress. It just didn't work out for me. I'm not saying that my situation is everyone else's, but the lack of flexibility led to me to turn away from it. I have, at

Looks like a great machine learning problem.

"Let me randomly filter these and hope for the best" is the essence of your suggestion for screening candidates. It doesn't sound very good. It sounds like you should be investing more time into interviewing more people inste

If your salary is public information, then any future employer can peg to it, rather than the market rate. It is to your benefit for your compensation to be privately held.

I wasn't referring to the state, I was referring to a privately run business.

I would agree with this if it could be shown in practice that the U.S. is incredibly impressioned by propaganda. I don't think it's bad for a private company to decide that advertising interests that represent a foreign adversary.

But loading external fonts does take additional time. So to say, oh yeah, I have GA and fonts and I'm still 100 sounds disingenuous because it could still be faster. Context is key. Nobody should be shooting for a perfect 100 in any si

Most developers aren't on H1B. There's what, tens of thousands on H1B, and hundreds of thousands of tech workers. While it's true some developers are underpaid, they are few in number and presumably of little significance on

It certainly puts things into perspective.

Nah, because I'm going to put my self-interest first. Just like Google is. So I should naturally oppose this as a developer. I benefit from a low supply of people with my skill set. Do you think google cares about "efficient alloc

If you can't afford property insurance, maybe you really can't afford the home.

I feel like AWS is already seeing threats. In the timeframe of 5-10 years, absolutely will that space look quite different. Personally, I find AWS' interface to be super clunky. In fact, I find all of Amazon's interfaces (AWS, Ama

So you're saying Amazon is no different -- they'll try and take on nearly every industry, but will really only have one core competence in 20 years?

Who you like versus who you are actually compatible with are two different problems. I'd imagine online dating services will never figure out the latter.

It seems like the federal government had an issue with the local government. Your average citizen wasn't responsible for coordinating the voting effort -- those were public dollars. So why were the citizens held responsible for the loc

Maybe a court should be deciding whether or not it is illegal, not the police. Again, my comment was about using the proper response to a given situation. I don't think the use of public money for the illegal act necessarily sets a bad

I wonder if the ballots were destroyed, or if we'll ever know the results of them. Since they were forcibly taken, the impartialness would surely be dubious.

The optics (at the moment) seem to be the most important issue here. Whether or not the vote is legitimate is quite irrelevant in immediate aftermath. This is a government using physical force against its citizens for, of all things, voting

Being in my 20s, I really do worry about my employability in 20 years. Of course, I plan to maintain my intellectual curiosity throughout my career (exploring new technologies, etc), but even if you are top notch, age discrimination is out

I know it's subjective, but lot of people look less attractive after getting plastic surgery. Maybe what I've seen are some of the tail end (e.g., not one procedure, but people getting literally dozens of procedures).

Companies don't get the money, so you're not really investing in the company directly unless you on the primary market (e.g., pre-IPO). You buying stock on a secondary market doesn't give the company more capital to work with

Usually a chart would be an SVG that contained a <title> and <desc> tags. Or an <img> tag with an alt attribute. I haven't tried it, but perhaps aria-label would do the trick. My point is, people create these fairly n

How does this play with accessibility? Sounds like a good idea, but is the HTML markup semantically understandable to a low vision user?

I bought a car by check in CA and I'm 99% sure I didn't get a credit check. I did have to prove to the seller that the account from which the check was written had sufficient funds, but that was it.

Is it really a choice if it's necessary to participate in our economy? No bank or loan will offer terms that don't involve the use of one of these credit reporting agencies.
