1. That doesn't mean killing it is worse, and I'd go as far as to say this case is objectively better to let rot. Imagine the outrage and brand stink that would create for Google, who is already known for killing things liberally,

That sounds like something you wish is true, not a reality. I can't think of a project left to rot that got notable bad press, but I can think of tons of cancelled ones that left sour tastes in people's mouths. From a brand perspe

Are that many parents really going to have a strong enough preference between league options to forge a document? The 3 different residency proofs seems a bit wild, though I guess based on some other comments here, perhaps needed lol

I'm reminded of the scene in The Politician where they aren't letting a high school student vote for student body president because she doesn't have her school ID on her by saying "if we let anyone vote, they would just

I've found that most people in the economics space know how broken the CPI is, so it's boring. That's why no one talks about it. The reality is the CPI doesn't affect as much as people think, so there's little press

It seems the core issue of your anecdotal case is that the people you see as being victims here are seen as harassers / antagonists by others. So the direction then goes from "don't harass" to "don't engage wit

So does anyone want to you know, respond to a question that literally just is declaring facts about words used in the article, or just silently downvote it because they don't like the "side" the point is coming from?

See my comment, and actually with that 10% number it doesn't hold true with only 50% of the logic applied. 50/10 vs 4*(unmaintained rate) + undercounting (possibly a large majority, possibly small) is probably React winning out

That 83% is very shaky at best. First, number of websites != number of platforms. If you go to the source of the number, they even point out as much: > WordPress, which is used in more than 30% of sites, includes jQuery by default. So ri

Interesting to see someone else with the same base and thoughts on it, and I'd highly recommend it! At a lower level, I've found a PL/Compilers background lets me switch/pick up languages quickly often and also helps eve

Actual experience I had recently that could work here: 1. I'm simultaneously filling out performance feedback while supporting infra and a team who is developing said tool. 2. I go to merge code from said team to fix a UI/UX issue

That's a huge mischaracterization of what I said. As I made clear, I clearly do value UI/UX and I'm not some old person making trades over the phone (I'm 24, directly in the Robinhood demo). What I'm saying is that

Merrill Edge is ugly but quite functional and featured on iOS. Same with Schwab. I don't need the "millennial" UI experience when moving thousands of dollars. And that's not to say it doesn't have value - I love it

IANAL but some possible reasons: 1. For lying about that reason to customers 2. for not shutting down all trading on their app (allowing sells of GME without manipulated the market, even if blocking sells would also have bad effects) 3. For

cwkoss more or less covered it, but they stopped buying for "retail" investors, but wall street could still buy. They basically literally said "okay enough of you normies, only professionals get to trade GME or AMC today"

Worth pointing out that nearly every major trading firm has blocked buying of Gamestop and AMC stock today. I really am hoping to see legal action against the entire industry for literal stock manipulation. This isn't limiting purchasi

This paper seems to mask just how much of an effect there is. For the people who aren't deep into stats and reading statistical scientific papers, can someone help translate what the z-scores here mean practically? Is this a log scale

This is a relatively minor nit, but the 75K conclusion was reached in 2010. You can at the very least adjust that to 90K now given inflation. I don't think this changes the refutation, but I've seen a lot of comments talking about

I just noticed, the sentiment numbers are completely different by chart for color. Shouldn't these be normalized for direct 1-1 comparison, or do these numbers not function this way? If they are comparable, then interestingly Amazon is

Should add (2014) here for context, only noticed after reading and it changes some things. My ever present thought while reading this was that the "paradox of tolerance" has been more or less already hashed out today and that out-
