> The Pyramid shows biased behaviors, growing in complexity from the bottom to the top. Although the behaviors at each level negatively impact individuals and groups, as one moves up the pyramid, the behaviors have more life-threatening

As usual, it’s taken out of context. He is comparing Bay Area girls to a girl he was sleeping with whose family moved here from Russia when she was a teenager and who “had spent years backpacking through jobs in rougher parts of the world”.

A lot of fashion is about bravery, as mentioned in the article. People look on those who can wear what they want as free, because they know they are not, and that they are afraid of being judged. I saw a guy wearing a kimono and a belt yest

Cooking is enjoyable and you can get the same flow state cooking that you can coding. And it’s where you can let your mind wander and come up with sparks of new ideas/approaches. Soylent is terrible for your insides.

How is the author overweight eating what he eats, and walking around outside. That makes no sense.

Same here. I love software but also hate it. Too many decisions. During lockdown I relish the opportunity to clean the house and cook because they are straightforward tasks where there are clear goals and I always achieve success. Software

The sarcasm was because of the non-chalant tone of the commenter, that there are not other people’s lives to at least consider as consequences. Sorry to hear of your situation. Agree, by no means are these issues clear cut in any way.

I was referring to the part in the article where Singer and the black employee are discussing the existence of white supremacy at the company. But you make a good point though regarding HR complaints. Q: what would you say though if an empl

“This sounded to me like” is the problem. Everyone hears what they want to hear for their narrative. Then it becomes a juicy internet drama rather than some mundane thing.

But why didn’t Trump come out to condemn genocide? And I haven’t heard Biden condemn pedaphilia either... /s

DHH agreed to delete it immediately. The politics was when one Asian employee wouldn’t let the issue die and posted the path to genocide pyramid about how laughing at funny names was just a step on the way to genocide. Talk about jumping to

The problem with this and ALL arguments comes down to definitions. “I don’t think there is white supremacy....of course there is white supremacy etc.” What I would have done is get them to define what each means by white supremacy in detail

I think SV lives too much in a bubble. The company got lots of free press from this. There will be many who will agree with Basecamp’s stance. Basecamp will easily hire new people. There are many who would love to work at a top SV company w

The people are fickle. They need to be led.

The scary thing is that there are so many companies willing to hire these types of employees leaving basecamp. Those who have the expectation of talking progressive politics at work and getting what they want or they leave. I wouldn’t touch

Everyone has laughed at these kinds of jokes. Also, if someone had a funny name and they went against progressive politics, then they would be laughing about it. How about all the Donald Drumpf stuff from Oliver. It puzzles me what progress

I wonder how those who wanted political discussions allowed would feel for example if they had to have political discussions with Trump supporters. I’ve never come across a leftist who wanted to debate anything or was open to changing their

At the extreme ends of the spectrum people always end up turning on each other. Many liberals like DHH who don’t stay up to the minute eventually get cancelled. The US left is unrecognizable from just a few years ago. I couldn’t imagine bei
