I think you have to look at the converse for why they're stable. Even when things are going really well, Nintendo grows very slowly. They don't take large risks outside their core business. Sounds like they believe they're

Nag-screens are awful but they do also need to explain their tipping because it creates customer confusion. They could simply put up a sign up that says "We pay our employees a living wage. We don't accept tips, but you can dona

Stack ranking is irrelevant to all that and doesn't solve that "problem". If you want to protect yourself from lawsuits, just have a documented policy for evaluation/incentives with a papertrail showing you adhere to it

I disagree. You can piss people off without doing anything wrong too. Complaints should be investigated, not taken at face value. This kind of ranking creates cliques and in-groups which can result in brigading. If someone is pissed off

No manager has direct insight into performance of 300 people (at least in tech). They have to rely on subordinate managers/teamleads, each of which can be unreliable for different reasons. Some may be playing politics, some may just

If you disincentivize (constructive) conflict, then you end up with a team stuck in groupthink that can't critically evaluate problems. It can be unpopular to present differing opinions, but it can also make the team stronger. You fil

The second model attempts to account for rotation but it doesn't account for varying angular velocities. Look at the variables, no new variables are included (unless you count the poorly defined constant). Does a coin "flip"

Exactly. Mine is only used for timers/alarms, weather and as a bluetooth speaker. I just want those to work reliably. Every time it tries to change my behavior ("I can also...") it is actively annoying me. But I also recog

It could also just be your expectations that are broken. Maybe you want to pursue more hobbies then can be reasonably be done. Then it's a matter of prioritizing the ones you get joy and fulfillment from and letting go on the ones yo

Maybe its time for Creative Commons License to address this. I'm curious if No-Derivative would already prohibit this? Does the ND language need tweaking? Or do they need a whole new clause. Edit: I guess they do address it in their

The article suggests using wide beams for transmission. That would mean anyone could passively take power. Without the ability to charge for power, isn't it doomed in our economic system? Is some municipality going to fund free power

I see a lot of traps with this. Who manages it and maintains the AI? They have a lot of power over the company and most companies won't have skillset. What happens when there is a crisis (natural disaster, employee walkout)? What ha

I think it'd be a stretch to say sequels are covered by derivative works. Trademark would be the primary protection and would function for sequels with no copyright protection at all.

On the wire it looks identical. It would have to be a very niche use, like a web form that filters periods.

Depends. If they're reviewing it without watching it, then I'm fine with their "opinion" being filtered. We don't need to amplify twitter outrage.

Mostly agreed. But in another society that values the wisdom of their elders, then they could see that as a large loss. Where-as the baby is replaceable with very little cost to society. I wonder if the stats would be different in an Eas
