Except that isn't what we are talking about.

Neat idea, but anything that ties into slack or threads in slack is asking for lost or complicated work. Slack threads are probably the worst tool for getting any work done.

This is a problem with Slack, not the users. The entire platform encourages noise. Here's an experiment. The next time someone in a channel asks a question, immediately post another question that is unrelated and see how much people

Blaming the tech industry is both not fair and not correct. In the grand scheme of themes they are a tiny fraction of total employment.

I agree, that's a problem. I would hope that most landlords are good actors, though. (heh)

Demonizing landlords is not the answer. They did not get us into this mess. It's a distraction. Prices are set by the market.

Android is such a mess. Google needs to do a rewrite and dump legacy support.

Like the majority of the US? The vast majority of the country does not support him or his ideas.

Yep, the DNC planned a whole conspiracy for.... Iowa.

Never let facts or reality get in the way of a good old conspiracy. Everything you just said is extremely exaggerated.

Landlords do not set prices. If you owned property or a rental you would know that.

by matchbok 7y ago
Uh, landlords don't control new construction. Government and NIMBYs do. Landlords would gladly accept new development because... it would let them make more money?

Demonstrably false.

New housing does not cause gentrification. No studies support your claim. If new housing is not built then rich people will push out existing residents. Think about it.

Not talking about McKinsey, talking about someone working there. Big difference.

I'm pretty calm, actually, thanks. Seems like you are the one who needs to calm down by assuming as such.
377.
by matchbok 7y ago
That's up to them, and the market. It is not their fault those industries pay more.

Anyone who criticizes McKinsey has no idea how consulting, or real companies, or the real world, works. These anti-Pete articles are so shallow and ignorant. Any parent would have been proud to have their son get a job there at his age. I g

Maybe because that's a bad idea. Unpopular != future Amazon. Sorry.

What a mess. Sad to see "tenant" organizations yell and scream about gentrification and displacement, ignoring the fact that both of those things are happening right now.

Imagine being so selfish and incapable of doing normal human things, like sit in a chair for a few hours, that you are willing to put a whole plane full of people through a bunch of nonsense and potential danger.

As a facilitator to these illegal dealings, Airbnb should be held responsible. It has turned from a quaint little company for bed and breakfasts to a massive illegal hotel and scam website. At the very best they are a huge operation to tran

That wouldn't work. Haiti has many other problems than the lack of Microsoft.

Uh, revenue declined. Not sure where you got that stat, but it's wrong, 100%. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/05/us-tax-revenue-dropped-sharp... There is zero evidence? That wasn't my argument. It also

Gov does not pay for private colleges.

Yeah, no. Trump and co claimed the cut would pay for itself, yet the deficit and debt continue to grow. Job growth is consistent since 2011 and year-over-year had no difference after the cuts. Same with middle class wage growth - all on the

What a great attitude. What, are you entitled to subsidized taxi rides even if you live 50 miles away? Geez.

Auto layout is not user-friendly enough to make sense on the web. 99% of the time the format is not readable at all. Does anyone honestly think this: [ 'H:|[view1(==view2)]-10-[view2]|' 'V:|[view1,view2]|' ] is reada

> You apparently believe that private philanthropy is better than government, but you want the rest of us to give our hard-earned money to government? That's not his argument at all. This argument is poorly written. Income tax != we

Great to see. Our tax money subsidizes car ownership (quite massively) already, glad to see some equity here. Everyone kicks and screams about transit systems "paying for themselves" but nobody asks the same of huge highways in th
