Seriously, we have to get rid of this 'holier than thou' mob rule in tech. The justice system takes care of unacceptable social behavior. Everything else is a difference of opinion.

So, I like to fall back to the law here, which says something along the lines of '[all vehicles should conduct themselves in a controlled manner, in which they can stop for a pedestrian at any time]'. To that end, I still feel the

The point is there shouldn't be such a thing as an 'aggressive' OR an 'assertive' cyclist. All cyclists should follow the law and follow predictive traffic behavior! It's pretty simple.

However, the law says you still have to yield to these people. So why not follow the law and stop?

My policy, when on foot, is such: -Completely ignore bicyclists. This may perhaps cause them abruptly stop and not like me. I don't care, because I have the right-of-way, and they are in the wrong. -Beat the living piss out of any bike

Oh for christssake. Am I the only one who's really tired that having a gender is being translated into a crime now? This is just absolutely ridiculous. Yes. It's you.

'I want to spend it doing Product Management and founding companies.' ...so what you're saying is you don't really do anything?

It's not 42 pounds, like an Altered board? This is, in fact, a main selling point directly on the page...

With the advent of remote work upon us, I find it hard that you'd be limited to those countries. In fact, literally the ENTIRE WORLD is your oyster, assuming you can reliably, regularly find power, wifi, and a team that'll work wi

No, but the difficulty with which your personal viewpoint can be adopted is not (nor should not) be the benchmark of his responsibilities as Mozilla's CEO, which is what he is there for.

That's really a misleading - almost bullshit-level - description. More accurately, you can 'remotely disable features so, if you shipped something broken, you can turn it off'. You're being almost misleading using phrasi

Sure, whatever. Have it. ...but that still doesn't negate the fact that expecting anyone worth their salt to give up a current level of security for a 45 day gamble with Buffer is a smart hiring strategy.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner! I understand the problem for Buffer, but this isn't the solution. I've heard of companies who offer people to consult on weekends for a predetermined total number of hours to accomplish much the s

Which is why, if you're running a company, you generally don't go barking up moral trees in the way OkCupid did, since you're speaking for a larger organization that possibly doesn't share your beliefs.

I'll be transparent and say: I think it's crazy you expect developers to take a 45 day risk/trial period, in order to work at the company. I'm an experienced dev (3+ years of wholesome experience + a solid work portfolio

Horse shit. There's lots of very well-vetted science supporting the problem of ADHD and attention span disorders. Ditto for the pharmaceutical interventions that are the main-line treatment for them (amphetamine is one of the most well

What, so your utopian world is an asexual, sexuality-less and sexualization-less world? Do you think that's a realistic expectation for all of society? Much less an enjoyable one? I, for one, thought this calendar came out very tastefu

At the time of this reply, it is at ~14.7k retweets + ~9k favorites. That's some fairly respectable distribution.

Forgive my ignorance, but why is this such a non-trivial task? While it seems some management might be required to sufficiently route high traffic partners, does it really require 'building new pipes' or 'special infrastruc
