you were in no way asking in a nice way. You were incredibly condescending in a post about a natural disaster striking the area. Don't be disingenuous.

Right. I think that mentioning you are single or poly in an interview can with certain context be inappropriate but not wholesale. Regardless of his mentioning that it seems clear that the unambiguous offense is the second one.

Seeing those things as a proposition I think would be entirely context dependent. I think their appropriateness would also depend heavily on context though they are not things I would mention in an interview. I'm so glad to hear that y

is mentioning that you are married in an interview in a position of power an offense?

deliverability is actually incredibly complicated. Every mailbox provider (gmail, yahoo, hotmail/office365, comcast, etc... being the main ones) has their own algorithm for determining what is or isn't spam and includes things fro

I feel at some point we changed what an NDE was really categorized as. When Rick Strassman did his research in the 90's and wrote DMT the spirit molecule he stated that classical NDEs were distinct from alien encounters and that in his

I think this is a weird view of how bias works. statistical models are imperfect models and are always going to have lots of bias or variance. We typically want to bias models using domain expertise or other external factors. This is like b

"but for the most part, I think most people are happy with how it works, and happy being able to complain about the time is doesn't as well." I think you are dead wrong they are just a captive audience with little say in the

Uh there are many reasons. Artists desires are typically mediated through a promoter or a promoter and a venue and the contractual obligations of both. For instance if the only appropriate sized venue is a live nation venue then you're

by jtmcmc 8y ago
of course the problem is the largest venue owner in the US is live nation who owns ticketmaster.

by jtmcmc 8y ago
that's what makes this so shitty - promoters are setting the prices initially and ticketmaster is trying to remove their choice by removing all the stock and reselling it at the maximum possible price

I think the two things are what do you want to do and where are you in your career? Being at Google is the safe easy money and will most likely work out better than your startup from an odds perspective. However, you'll be a cog in a v

I mean that's what we developed DMARC for though.

yeah I fail to really connect the dots between people that want to be islamophobic and transphobic with labor relations. If anything I'd say the organized actions by googlers against military contracts shows the actions you seem to be

Isn't this more often called fairness now since bias is already an overloaded term ?

no it's not! it references a retracted paper https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retracted_article_on_dopaminer... where he used methamphetamines instead of MDMA.

yeah to clarify by "cultish in some ways" I mean they have inspired an extremely strong fanbase who have created almost a subculture within a subculture to a certain extent. I don't think they are actively trying to start a c

by jtmcmc 8y ago
It's definitely cultish in some ways but I would say the main difference is I've yet to see Alex or Allyson act as cult like leaders. There is lots of mysticism, psychedelic religion, etc... swimming around them however.
