Bosses like office culture because it targets them. Everyone is nice to them because they’re the boss. If they have a gathering at a bar, many will attend because of his status. Try this - have the lowest ranking engineer announce they’re

If you anything about Japan you wouldn’t say this. Japan’s criminal justice system is so bad as to rival Central America, not the US.

It’s a cause. Likewise, people have been dying long before the development of guns.

Sounds crazy indeed. I worked at Splunk for many years and was a DataDog customer later. The costs of either are not something I care to deal with.

Star Wars worked beautifully for its actual intended purpose, which you mentioned.

It’s because it provides false hope. Many people can tell you about the hours wasted on the apps.

Look at what books and literacy cost before copyright. I’ll take today’s world any day.

By your rationale why don’t you give up cars? If you care for your loved ones so much, Han them from using cars. Does your personal liberty outweigh the need to keep your family safe from tons of metal hurtling at them at insane speeds?

Many things are wasteful. Trees are wasteful. The plant world could happily live as tall grasses, but because of competition, we now have trees.

I studied computer science. It came with some math - four semesters of calc, diff eq, linear, discrete, etc. FOUR semesters of calc! It’s only use has been to tutor my daughters.

I have YT premium. It only stops the ads in the beginning. It does nothing for the in-show ads - the sponsored stuff. I wish that was required to be flagged and skipped as well.

So if I get your six year old daughter to sell me all her toys for 100 $1 bills, you would be ok with that?

It didn’t. It wasn’t sold because the girl backed out. The auction chose to ignore that.

by david38 4y ago
Irrelevant. She is a minor.

I would be surprised if anyone was under the impression that the purpose of a livestock auction was … to raise pets?

It’s a goat. It’s a young child. Surely the world won’t stop because a minor doesn’t understand the full ramifications of a contract. Get off your high horse.

This has literally been a major function of the church and other neighborhood organizations and activities.

It doesn't. It hasn't for some years. Dinner is no longer a requirement. Being exclusive is no longer the assumed default.

You don't understand the term mathematical. What emotional component? Who said anything about dinner? You bring a girl over at 6, then another at 8, then 10. You have a different girl for every day of the week. It's well known mo

Culture appropriation is the adoption of something from another culture. Every single culture does this. Are you Asian making pizza? That's cultural appropriation. It's not a bad thing, it's just a thing. This also isn&#x

Was she? She said he grabbed her by the throat. What’s that mean? He actually did? Did it leave a mark? I mean, if it was strong enough to choke her? Did his hand brush her throat? What was her immediate description of what happened to

Yea, if someone came in with that agenda right off the bat, I would drop them immediately. That person spends too much time on social media and if they’re going to get triggered or make a crusade over such social issues as me using traditi

What evasive double-speak. "I suspect" = "I really don't know anything." "many employees" = "I really have no idea." 2? 2k? So if you worked at a company of say, 400 people, and 3 of them had t

I run a ClickHouse cluster. I’ve heard Druid is more difficult, but ClickHouse isn’t exactly a piece of cake. It’s great for a while, but sometimes you can get bitten by weird states. Still, compared to everything I’ve used, for the use

You are 100% correct. That quote is garbage. What it's really saying is - "ask around, I'll wager you'll be hard-pressed to find someone who won't pretend to want a safer, fairer, more just world for everyone. In

Wow, talk about the most boring title that turned out to be the best project I've read about in a while! Literally thought it was about standard ebook structure (TOC, index, etc). Turned out to be Ebooks Brought Up a Notch!

This is false. It’s not illegal to discuss your salary. Discussing a classified government contract is illegal. Absolute false analogy.

You are not paid by the difficulty of your work. You are paid according to how much the hiring manager thinks he can replace you for. Sometimes this creates falsely inflated salaries- like when a company insists on hiring Harvard MBAs. Of
