How embarassing for him, he doesn't even know how to pronounce his own technology.

I can eat carrots till I'm orange in the face, but I never feel full. I seem to need meat or fat for that.

Nope, because I have occasionally gotten drunk, and quit HN due to some reason that seemed perfectly valid at the time. A few weeks later, I forget why I was upset, and join again with a new account because I quit with a scorched earth app

Modes in UI are not bad. Unexpected behaviour is bad. Don't confuse the two.

Who knew there were these things called democracies that allowed their people to create their own laws!!! I understand that America usually "encourages" other countries to follow their laws, but it looks like some freedom still exists, as

Yea, the prices are ridiculous, you blew right past the mark on this.

What a naive view. When hiring there are a number of factors that will determine whether they will be the successful applicant, their skill set being only one of them. Part of that is whether they will fit in with the group, are they able

From what my friends have told me, corruption and cheating is much more culturally accepted in India. So although race has no place being in a conversation, culture is relevant to the discussion. Also, white is not a culture, race, or cou

This comes from the days when you would have to call the IT desk, and have them reset your password.

Only one planet produces the water and food in which our entire existence is dependant, but we don't take that very seriously. Four chip makers seem almost excessive in comparison.

Or, just don't use facebook. I'm not trying to be facetious, if you don't trust the company with your most personal information then you probably shouldn't be using their service. Because that is what they trade in.

Absolutely, if it's to set right the ratio that has been skewed due to the history of women's lack of equality. The stats don't lie in this case, women are getting screwed.

Heh, I think we're arguing inches from each other at this point, with nowhere to go until a landmark opinion presents itself. gg

This is simply magic, I'm kinda speechless.

Civil Rights Act does not ban affirmative action. As long as its aiming to correct a statistical imbalance, which a 10-1 ratio is certainly is. (And a few more points, but nothing to conclude your assertion is certain)

I haven't seen the case law which prohibits hiring for diversity. Could you direct me to some which demonstrates your assertion?

No, it's not. When is the last time you went to a gentlemans club and saw a naked man on stage?

The job the person is applying for is an engineer and workplace diversify-er. How does the white male accomplish the second criteria?

I always see these arguments as very very myopic. If I need a developer, then I hire a developer. I am very much discriminating against accountants, because they don't fit the qualifications that I am looking for. But no intelligent pers

For someone focusing on what is being written, you really didin't. I made no accusation, I asked if you would say you were a shill, were that to be the case. And I admitted that if I were a shill, I would preface my statements with "I am

And if you were a shill, do you think you would come out and say it? Because, if I was a shill, this is essentially the post I would write.

I have no issues with a company not honouring a mistake, but honouring one will definitely win my respect, and make me want to buy from them in the future.

I was hoping they wouldn't, this isn't the guy I want to rally behind. He's foul, delusional, at best grey hat, and apparently a pharmacologist on the side. The EFF needs to pick its battles better. Double down on cases like Aaron's, and

So in order to exploit something, the target must feel exploited? That's news to me.

The first developer you hire shares in your risk, but with a fraction of the potential gain, and you're worried that you can't pay him what he's worth? Exploitation of depressed markets is a viable option, but it's not the right option.

Can a case be made that YouTube is abusing it's effective monopoly on web video? I'm genuinely curious.
