For whoever downvoted me, calm down! dang@ and I had a conversation over the weekend on a different post about the HN community. I didn’t leave a comment today about it. I asked him to show me data that confirms that the HN community is not

dang@: I still think you’re wrong about the HN community. It’s exactly what I said it was in my other comment.

I wasn’t provoked though. I literally asked to be downvoted in the GP and then when I was (as expected because of course HN is full of more racist and sexist people than you’re willing to admit) I copied/pasted the same comment and cha

Thanks, dang@. Although I wish that you and others affiliated with HN would just explicitly call out the racism and sexism that exists on this site, instead of telling me I’m just making things worse. I don’t mind doing the work for you. Bu

Correct. It’s quite clear these are different guys even with the low-res images. So maybe OP was comparing the wrong photos.
36.
by daniel957 6y ago
Yeah, even with the low res images it’s clear these guys aren’t the same. They’re not even the same complexion with the guy in the license photo being several shades darker. (The darkness isn’t due to the low quality of the image.) Are you

This happened to me. On my phone and on my MacBook, I kept being asked to sign in. I was confused because I didn’t do anything that would require me to sign in again. I assumed that it was some security thing since I had been signed in on b

I’m just asking you to explain what you originally said. I’m not asking you to explain my interpretation of what you said, obviously. What were you referring to or what did you mean when you mentioned if statements and racists?

Friendly ping. I’m just asking to explain what you originally said. I’m not asking you to explain my interpretation of what you said, obviously.

It’s disgusting that you literally have two Google employees providing you the truth and you just keep saying “No, you must be mistaken.” I have eyes, I can read. I have a brain that functions very well. A lie is a lie is a lie. And even if

I think (know for a fact) they were lies also. There was no huge list of demands.

Yes, he literally lied by omission. Internally, there’s an entire data analysis available for viewing. We have literally asked senior leadership why his email does not align with facts and we have not gotten a response. Internally, you can

So what about the if statements and racism? Please elaborate.

by daniel957 6y ago
I see! Thanks for the explanation.

I see. I assumed that order flow implied something about timing (i.e. we send these orders to this broker who executes the order in an untimely fashion causing an inferior execution price).

Person A places a trade which ends up executing at a certain time that causes the person to lose money. Person B places a trade, then there’s some breaking news about the COVID vaccines and the market fluctuates, and then the trade is execu

Doesn’t this also mean that, depending on the market, Robinhood’s actions could have benefited investors?

Why did you find the mention of Timnit Gebru ludicrous? The issues are closely related. In fact, I was _expecting_ the article to mention it. Google tells Researcher 1 to re-word things in X way for Y reason. Google tells Timnit Gebru to re

But they don’t emphasize it or mention it officially during orientation. It was only mentioned during one of the smaller tech trainings facilitated by a longtime Googler. To paraphrase their words, “I’m not sure why we don’t say this anymor

Why does your last bullet point make me feel like we read two different articles?

I played a lot of Rollercoaster Tycoon and always cleaned up the vomit. I put out the fires in the Sims and made sure the burglar didn’t burgle.

Your first comment made sense but this one just sounds like you’re making stuff up. Did you read the hypothesis? It’s been around since the 80s. https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/the-worst-mist...

This brings to mind the hypothesis that humans during the hunter-gatherer phase were better off health-wise without the adoption of agriculture.
