Yes, this is the problem. Unprofessional, low-quality employees think employment is "king of the hill," when really it's "tides lift all boats." It only takes 1 person in a company of a hundred to completely destroy

The gist is, be the trusted person who has the backs of the other team mates. Don't have to be the best performer, but be loyal to your team. Be the person who can be trusted with the project work, but also off the team too, like with

It's a metaproblem that HN doesn't want to address. It creates an echo chamber that isolates dissent. There's a framework in any society, including those online that serves to isolate the higher man. Group think is required.

It does work. Besides, you don't need to pay people not to do things. Just punish them if they do. If I were to cut down my trees, I'd have to pay fines. If it weren't easier to slash and burn, they'd find ways to grow p

Of course you don't think that's correct. Neither does he. No one is gatekeeping women out of tech. You want to believe that, so you find reasons to explain it that put the responsibility for it on everyone except those choosing n

Perhaps not. How many times must someone lie to you before you stop believing them? And worse, shilling for them?

I saw and heard him say it, so linking to an article that says he didn't won't work. Saying "Get a grip." is just the kind of condescension that ruins your credibility. You don't have facts to back up your claims, j

I am specifically saying that the pandemic plan you say was in place prior to Trump would not have been effective with COVID, as evidenced by the statements of those who implemented that plan before . "It is purely a fortuity that t

But that's not what he said is it? He didn't say, "Masks are important, but right now we need to save them for our frontline workers, so please, stay home, let us get this under control and stock our healthcare system appropr

What I remember of it was calling it the "china flu" was racist/xenophobic. Now, however, it's fine to call it the Brazilian Strain or the UK Strain or the South African Strain. None of any of this makes logical sense to

Non sequitur, straw man, false analogy. What you're saying here is totally irrelevant to anything I said. Legality and morality are orthogonal. Violating people's privacy and messing with their dopamine receptors to manipulate the

No you don't. There is no algorithm from any philosophy in history that evaluates his behavior to "good." Besides that, what you "think," or say you think is irrelevant. People lie and you're a people, so y

That sounds good in theory, but in practice, at least in my case, it doesn't work out like that. Lawyers for corporations do not care about their obligations under the law. They blatantly abuse it. I am not an attorney and when lawyers

Well, here I am. Whistleblowing. Unemployed. Nothing and no one to support me. Suffering from C-PTSD every day. Unable to sleep at night, because I may be murdered for reporting a potential billion-dollar money laundering scheme. Fearing

I am fighting this. I was given requirements to implement fraud and I said no. They gave it to a contractor. I said roll it back. They said no. I reported it up. They constructively dismissed me. I continued to report it up to the most sr.
