I think a lot of contention in the comments would have gone away if, instead of calling it "True Unemployment Rate", Axios had chosen a different term. "Dependent Rate" may have been a good alternative?

I think you're both right at the same time. Discord didn't need to be perfect to gain momentum, but it needed to be better. In a way, not only was Discord better; it also added a new use case. I have never tried Ventrilo or Mumble

If I suggest an idea from a coworker in a meeting as if it was mine, that move would be seen, at the very least, as somewhat rude. If I got that idea from examining the competition, that would be seen as a smart move. Sure, if attribution i

This thread also summarizes my experience pretty well. To take this even further: I encounter in my day to day many instances of people making claims that are easily refuted with a quick online search. I have realized that correcting people

For me that is very group dependent. The variance is so high that talking about my average behaviour in these groups is meaningless.

Yes. But only with the people I already had these kinds of conversations before. It's also important to note that the quantity and quality of those moments have decreased. The reason being you are not sharing as much time a day with th

Exactly this comment. 10x developers exist. 100x developers exist. These developers don't program 10x as fast or have 1/100th of the code. They bring 10x or 100x more value as compared to other developers. People in HN seem to for

Looks promising! Especially the Activity Diagram. Although these diagrams don't look too modern -that base style could see a refresh- it would do the trick just fine for me!

Does the new owner of the account have access to his previous messages? I wonder how this would play out with GDPR if the original owner was from the EU.

Every time I have to create a diagram I struggle. If I want something quick and dirty the options are out there. But if I want to create a diagram for a serious project, I have trouble. Ideally, I would love a solution that integrated with

After just 1 year of college experience, I got accepted into a company as a senior engineer. At some point, I debated whether or not I should write that into my resume and decided against it. Even though I proposed and started my own proj

May I ask you how you approached this negotiation? Did you just send an email to company A with "Hey, company B gives me X. Do you have a better offer?" and go back and forth for two weeks?

It depends on the hackathon. Pretty much all of the hackathons I've seen have a way to try to match people with uncompleted teams (or other people). I used to feel exactly like you do. In order to get my "feet wet" the first

I'm from Spain, so my knowledge may not be translatable, but I will give it a crack. A business that is set up as a "non-profit" means that it can't pay dividends. If the business earns one million dollars, I can't

IMO a bigger problem is the effect these platforms have on children. There should be systems in place that extend the regulations that exist on TV to the social media experience.

I think you're misunderstanding. Storing a message does not imply storing it in plaintext. In fact, the previous paragraph talks about E2E encryption.
