Some of those “Chads and Beckys” (I must be old as I don’t recognize those terms but know exactly who you are talking about) bring in absolutely massive amounts of revenue. Furthermore they can often be cheap since they’ll work for less tha

Safeway and Whole Foods (I believe Verifone terminals) have a blue light over the card entry slot. It's also immediately visible because it's black on grey. The Square terminal is a black void on a black field.

The standards for self-driving cars are MUCH higher than for computer aided diagnosis. Choice of medical tools is made by trained, rational doctors largely hidden from the public. Self driving cars’ failures will play out in front of normal

If this was so carefully designed why isn’t there an LED ring around the card slot? The first time I used one, the clerk had to explain several times that there was a nearly invisible card slot in front of me.

I’ve always wished Netflix had this built in. If it didn’t support syncing between the same account it would even voluntarily cut down on account sharing.

Except that selling data to third parties has never been Microsoft’s MO. It’s always been about getting fat checks from the worlds largest companies’ IT departments.

People get hit by buses, but would you hire someone who you KNEW was going to get hit by a bus in six weeks?

I have a health condition which causes me to be suddenly absent for a week at a time 1-4 times a year. I absolutely disclose this to any prospective employer because I don’t want them to grumble when it happens.

> We had twins so she wasn't going back to work anyway But the company would have still had to keep the position open anyways. Here we see the root causes of pregnancy discrimination.

A Chinese tariff would have been great policy 40 years ago. Now it is just stupid.

But that’s one product beating another. It happens all the time. I’m talking about a departure from a product for ethical / philosophical reasons.

I have never seen one of these Silicon Valley “boycotts” have any effect whatsoever.

Not really... most of my voting has been aligned with moderate redistribution. But I’m more for taking the destitute and giving them a minimal lifestyle (housed, fed, clothed, small amount of entertainment) than taking people with minimal l

Most of the behavior that this article is criticizing is not a crime in the US. Yes, “I’ll come to your house and murder your family” is a crime, but “I hope you die alone of cancer” is not, nor is “People like this should be stabbed in the

You’re not supposed to be able to support a kid on a minimum wage. The minimum wage supports the minimum lifestyle - single person household with minimally acceptable levels of food/clothing/shelter/other.

After getting multiple times by the guy he shot first. Good riddance.

Yeah... why would you be able to rent a 2BR house on minimum wage. More like a shared room in a house.

It’s not a scientific reason, it’s historical reasons. Look at the history of the US. 30 years from now it isn’t going to be a country run by its 5% Asian population.

I don’t think there should be racial quotas, de facto or otherwise, but if Harvard decided to only admit tall men with “upper management written all over them” that wouldn’t be irrational.

Yeah, but the whole point of the Mac Mini was to be less stuff on the desk. I wish Apple would have given me the USB hub on the front of the machine.

What Harvard is trying to do is admit the people who will be national and global leaders 30 years from now, not the people who will get the best grades at Harvard. Since the country’s future leaders won’t be 60% Asian it doesn’t make sense

Of course it’s an attack on Google Maps, and that’s a good thing. People should be happy to have Microsoft’s help in fighting Google because Google is much scarier than Microsoft these days.

It doesn’t help now, but in the future please do not quit a job because the company is behaving unethically. It will eliminate 80% of employers.
