I'm a little confused how them getting their passwords help feed your kids after the employee is gone. I think what they did afterwards was definitely great, but that doesn't change my opinion that if that happened to me some pass

If someone from my loved one's job called me 24 hours after they were killed in a horrific terrorist attack to talk about passwords I don't think I would be able to contain my vitriol.

I was giving examples, it certainly isn't an exhaustive list. How many complaints against Uber in a year? We don't know because there isn't any regulator oversight besides trusting Uber.

I never said they were immune... I was merely pointing out that there is a lack of regulation. There is no taxi commission to go to if Uber screws you.

I think regulations have more to do with the drivers not taking you on 20 mile detours, trying to sexually assault or yelling at a cancer patient (all Uber stories).

If you considered the reliability and security concerns. It would be interesting in terms of anonymity though.

I disagree this doesn't fit, this is a collection of things and many of them you can play with.

Threads about minorities or women are full of examples. And thinking you aren't part of groupthink is classic groupthink anyway so that doesn't prove anything. Just look at your response, classic HN: dismissive and flippant.

I think almost every group is a hivemind. And HN certainly shares characteristics of groupthink.

This is like if Douglas Adams and Greg Egan did pair coding. Super interesting.

Approve for what out of curiosity? I'm sure they don't expect a how-to on making a shiv half way through a KA video.

Hearing about someone get so into a arguably esoteric subject and really expand the knowledge base is inspiring.

Yeah but I'm not going to create additional value for my company because it doesn't increase the reward at all so we're left with what the article describes, nothing to do.

I remember being told the internet revolution would allow people to work shorter hours without being tied to a desk. Maybe this is just a symptom of the old 9-5 model breaking in a world where I can finish a lot of work during my commute. A

"It will be a full day of work, like an extended interview, and unpaid." Screw that noise. It is clear from just that they don't respect people's time.

Is there a reason to want a sustained human presence on Mars? I heard about using it as a rest stop on longer trips but couldn't any science be done on a per trip basis?
