Professional respect is absolutely the magic ingredient. I just joined a place like this where the mission is effectively "We will grow and sell stuff through service to each other." I was borderline ready to go back to blue-col

If this document stated 'I can't believe we don't talk about whether or not corpses feel it if you rape them.' You probably couldn't use that argument. Google decided what he said is fucked up and that he wasn&#x27

No matter what he intended the thesis to be, that thing was just a bunch of dog whistles that sounded an awful lot like ignorant alt-right bullshit to me.

Every time you eat, take a moment and think about it, even photograph it if you wish. It's easy to eat well all day and feel good about it, to then just stand over the sink and eat 4 fun-sized Snickers as a snack at 4PM. (I've ne

I don't think you read it. It is really complex and actually hypercapitalistic, and nationalistic in its basic form. It advocates for advancement of their perception of humanity over all else. The newest iteration even advocates for

Generally, I think most people would agree that "healthy food" is a diverse set of foods that do not contain empty calories.

This is not a scientific answer, but my perspective is that healthy food is more expensive, therefore purveyors of healthy food tend to avoid poor areas. It's not so much the consumer's "choice" to buy these products, b

I don't think the reviews are rigged per se. Here's what I think causes this. I was a superhost for about a year renting out a spare room. Superhost status seems to increase your position in search results, and acts as an indica

When using Airbnb, the consumer should approach it as if they are taking on risk that some number of reservations will fail, and you'll have to pay a premium to find lodging. If your perceived expected value is greater when taking tha

Your answer actually resonates with me to some degree. It is not my position but I get it and think it would work in an ideal world without corrupted officials. As it stands, I see the less advanced technology thriving for longer than it

Barriers to entry in the ISP game are too high for competition. Google can't even hack it. What is your perspective as a free-market advocate in this scenario?

tl;dr: "I had a cultural bias that I overcame with critical thinking."

TDD is awful if you expect all of the tests you produced during the process to stay static. With care, you can pare down your test suite, or add additional tests, to be appropriate as a regression suite for the software each time it is ite

I'm in Atlanta and have been passively looking for a Rails job for about a year. There are not as many as when I was in the Northeast looking around 2014. However the companies I'm speaking with who use Ruby have a mature approa

This is an intentionally obtuse position. The quoted commenter is referring to distinct events, not repetition of a single event.

Insurance companies are already changing how they access risk for weather-based catastrophes. Banks will be in lock-step with them.

If it makes you feel better this feature was an enhancement to an in-app messaging system. So like, they could have just used email.

Wow, this hits close to home. I have shipped exactly 1 feature that has helped anyone, and it's only helped a few 10s of thousands of people. And the product which uses the feature is probably going to shut down soon.

I found myself in this scenario pretty recently. I had about 5 years experience at a non-tech company with experience in a million things. I had to move and was getting killed in interviews for sr. positions, until I wasn't. I found

I worked for a Fortune 50 up until about a year ago. In the 5 years I was there every single strong developer that I met left. They were paying sr. devs the same as 'business analysts' that simply repeated their managers instruc

That sentence seems like its intention is to confuse the reader. To me it means for UberX: Fare - Cost = Revenue, and for UberPool: Fare = Revenue.

Can you get the nice, boldly colored ones in packs? I have some really cool purple, orange, and green ones that look like fancy mall retail shop shirts.

Protip: Hanes t-shirts are about $7 at target, boxers $12/3 at T.J. Maxx. Get good, comfortable shoes, no matter the price. This is insane, but a work of art if it's parody.

This is a satirical analysis of Atlas Shrugged, right? When I read it, my impression was that the message is 'all acts are moral if they are in your own self-interest.' The 'heroes' as you call them abandoned civilizatio

Ask 10 people on the street how the compensation works today, maybe 2-3 will know. If you asked them 2 days ago, maybe 1. Point is the compensation is obfuscated. If people demanded their $1350 or whatever when this happened, things may b

This may be arguable, but I perceive another 'net result' of fewer people having student loans. Classical economics suggests this will lead to increased spending, growth, and higher employment. More money spent should also lead

I took the Udemy prep class but haven't taken the exam. I don't work for them or anything but I found it to be a pretty good class. Like 16 hours but you can speed the videos up. I think you can finish the course in 2-3 days an
