The system failed to act as intended then, and I'd honestly not be remisced if I didn't mention it creating new victims. The people staring at that data and making laws know this; it's not like they're unaware and yet

It's a trash argument in the first place, for starters. The people who support sex workers having an actual, functioning, non-predatory ecosystem don't suddenly flip to "freedom of speech sucks" when pressed.

Ostracizing sex work has become fully normalized, so unfortunately people read this and immediately think, "Why not pretend to be someone else?", "Why not just do other illegal things (like tax evasion)?"

Generally speaking to what they did, they're generally encouraged to produce diagrams that could help explain the problem and solution, and that's all usually part of a slide deck (but doesn't have to be). Having an enumerate

Shout out to you for wading through the literal torrent of bullshit without the foresight of a blog post to expose context and with little professional experience to help inform you. You'll be a great asset to the industry but it can t

I agree with you, allowing managers and recruiters to use contrived requirements creates perverse incentives. That said, while it may contribute to an uptick people have been doing this for a long time. I think they're both problems, a

Sorry about that, it's early for me. I meant provenance. Thanks for the correction.

Spread of Stuxnet is easily tracked: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet Iran had the most infections and the virus is designed to attack centrifuges. Israel took over the code base during the Obama administration

I dealt with a number of people who weren't who they said they were in my last bout of hiring. There's typical ones where an engineer will stack their resume with buzzwords that they don't understand at a basic level. An exam

I'm pretty sure this would be called an Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) in the US. You aren't stupid; ARMs are sold heavily during "good times" and to be frank, to my knowledge, most of your country uses what we call ARMs

I have pretty bad allergies, the pollen messed with me quite a bit. The real harm I think is giving too many perceived privileges to something that is currently a luxury.

imo, this is actually a fairly salient point. Wealthy people do put most of their cash in investments but not all investments are equal to the health of the economy or as detrimental if toyed with.

I think reversing it treads heavy into opinion territory, which has no data - just people's feelings. If the roles were reversed, eg: were this not SF, people would be die hard about the data and what it shows - which is part of my poi

The data, to me, is mostly reality. I rephrased it so that it reflects peoples perceptions on reality. I did that specifically because there's debate on how much crime there actually is. I do agree that data is fallable and manipulatab

I've updated that sentence to read, "A persons position on crime really depends on how they interpret the data on this dashboard." Thanks for pointing out the poor phrasing.

Did you read the article or are you intentionally asking me questions that The Intercept has already asked notable scientists? Lab Leak theory isn't unfounded, it comes from a fact-based position that already went through numerous laye

by kodah 4y ago
The Intercept does a better job of explaining that. The problem with Lab Leak is that because it was suppressed for so long there's been a lot of time to destroy evidence. At that point the "smoking guns" are pretty few and f

I have no opinions on the article itself, but I am interested in whether the same actors also acted in coordination to suppress Lab Leak given that they were also implicated. > Rather, they were the fruits of an aggressive attempt to sha

This article is from 2012, but it never ceases to amaze me that people will make excuses to strip themselves of freedom for a small semblance of safety that will never be.

I used to live outside of Silicon Valley, can confirm that most companies don't pay that much. However, what you didn't say is far more interesting: that it's okay that they don't. That part is the real travesty, that so

Anecdotally, I've never had RSUs depreciate to a point at which I metaphorically lose money for my efforts. This might happen at startups more often and megacorps less often.

It's a story any time one country hacks another and the public finds out about it. There's very little "retaliation" in the grand scheme of things today; more long on-going conflict with no end among shifting ideological

This is how my ESPP works. I couldn't imagine that program replacing my RSUs. What a ripoff to the people attracted by the promise of RSUs. As someone who came into tech with $0 in savings, RSUs are what gave me financial freedom. When

Question from a non-crypto person. Why did you assert so plainly that Bitcoin scales linearly with transactions? Even I know that's not true. Things I'm curious about: - Where'd you learn this? - Have you read any academic ma
