Indeed, people have become skeptical of the mainstream narrative. Why does that happen? Because things don't add up.

Why only Facebook? All companies which store data are suspect.

I guess what Snowden said is true. FB is a surveillance company under the guise of social network. FB is not the only one in this case. All companies which store info could be suspect.

This is even with most of the global mainstream media supporting Hilary and party. And now the media wants to divert their failures to some social media effect - as if FB only showed pro Trump news.

Delete Facebook? Then what about WhatsApp? Isn't it owned by FB now ;)

No, I wasn't accusing you at all. In fact, was agreeing with you. Just that I used a bit of sarcasm by pointing out how it is in here.

Relax, it is not gonna happen. Even if it "happens" in a sense, it won't be "them". Tech dissent is not much appreciated in yc, esp when a yc fellow is backing this.

Have got a very bad feeling about this. Makes you wonder what really is "You" or "I". Just a collection of memories in your brain? Do people here approve of the idea of soul? Most probably won't because there's

Both papers published simultaneously... How does that happen? But the probability of that happening seems to be more since the last 100 years ;) And no, I don't have any research papers or statistics to back up my statements. Just sayi

Maybe we can still keep the patent tag, but devoid of any other conditions except that this one tech was created by the patent holder. In this case, the "patentable" motivation will still be valid.

You maybe down voted because people here want links and proofs.

True, those who do the real work doesn't get paid, but the ones who publish it gets paid.

Why people do that? It is always a good learning experience.

It is all context oriented. Lets see how these things develop. Lets ask a computer who just laughed at a joke "Why did you laugh? Or what made you laugh? Or Why did you find it funny?", and see what replies we get :D

Computers are getting smarter. They can do many stuff faster than humans. They can even detect sarcasm. But do they "understand" it? Can Computers understand a subtle joke? Maybe we could train a Computer to detect jokes and make

Agree with some points. The state I live in has a strong union culture. There is a tendency in which unionized places think about only "Rights", but not "Responsibilities". This in turn affects productivity. I guess whe

Burn em :D That aside. Did these people who brought up Bitcoin thought that the story of Satoshi Nakomoto is even remotely believable? No one seems to be interested in finding out who really is behind all these. We rather have vague stories

Yes indeed, a pity. The "export worthy" Cavendish is not considered worthy in local markets though.

by knowThySelfx 9y ago
I don't think people there care for Cavendish much anyway ;) It isn't considered at par with other varieties.

In TCS, is the salary scale same for Indians on H1B and American Citizens? (Assuming they are equally qualified/competent)
87.
by knowThySelfx 9y ago
Hiring Green card holders or Indian's of American citizenship is a different matter. They aren't gonna work for the salary of an Indian citizen on H1B. The equation changes there. I agree, there could be a cultural angle. But I do

I guess we will see some changes to this as well, if Webassembly really takes off. Which is what it looks like. Could be interesting to see the kind of security issues this brings.

He was stating his own experience - so that is his basis. When you work at some place you also see whats going on in there generally. He was not commenting about the "bias" which is what TCS is facing trial for.

Yeah, its like a glorified sweatshop. Is it any wonder that these companies don't get any respect.
