These hardly seem like good questions: > What percentage of the company is non-male? > What percentage of the company is non-white? > What percentage of the company is LGBTQ? If those things are important to you, better to ask some

How can "Vary: Accept-Encoding" not be the default? When would you ever want to serve gzipped content to a client who cannot accept it? From what OP linked [0], it clearly is a problem Google is aware of and are trying to communic

"Gooble App Engine" made me laugh. I'm imagining some kind of knock-off brand cloud provider.

I mostly work outside in an Adirondack chair, so for me, it does make sense to optimize for mobility. I don't have a Mac though... Dell XPS 13 running Ubuntu works great for me. Never had an issue with the three I've had over the

Strong linting helps a lot. It is much easier for people to accept criticism from an automated linter than a bunch of nit-pick comments from a real person. It also avoids wasting the reviewer's time. If people disagree on a linting rul

Not really. And the truth is I've probably been responsible for bad code that others have inherited, especially early in my career. My favorite way back then was to over-engineer and gold plate. I've also been the "over comme

Yeah, except they go farther than just "no thanks". It's more like: "do you want to sign up for our financial newsletter?" * Yes, sign me up. * No, I hate making money and choose to be poor. They are hostile towards

That seems like a strange reason to me. Isn't HTTP/2.0 faster? Isn't it also basically transparent to the end user? I'm trying to figure out what I would gain by configuring my browser to use HTTP/1.1 only.

Why? Are you unable to believe someone might think differently than you do, without it being explained away as "artificial voting"? Edit to add: Nice, they edited their comment. Previously it accused HN of having an artificial vot

> What if you applied this to a worker instead of a CxO? Would you yourself take a pay-cut, after the fact, if the company fails to perform? Yes. Yes I would take the CEO's total compensation package. I am skeptical that the CEO is

I'm trying to understand your point of view. Are you saying executive compensation should be orthogonal to company performance? Overpaid executives failed, so workers lost their jobs, but the executives get to keep theirs all the while

Saying the difference between 152 vs 169 is only 10% more is not the right way to think about it though. Here is what I mean by that: Let's say for the sake of example that the healthy target weight for that height is 135. So then 152

People who don't "optimize for this lottery" are the ones who luck always seems to pass them by. They just don't know why, and they guess they're just unlucky. It's just not fair! What they don't see is ho

Exactly this. Many here are focusing on a single interaction. While the outcome of that single interaction is negative to the company, the aggregate outcome must be positive somehow, perhaps in the way you said, but it doesn't even hav

The answer to this seems like it will depend on what your distractions are. Without knowing that, I think my suggestion would be to be more deliberate with my time. By that I mean, set a timer for each thing you need to do, and only reward

There are people who read every story they encounter through a political lens and judge every person based on how likely they are to be a political ally or enemy (without even knowing for sure... just stereotyping them). It's a form of
