Most of those sound like a recipe for going out of business.

But he didn't get rid of the 'master' terminology, only slave. I bet "they" come for that next. I feel sorry for the guy.

Let people work from home at their own whim. Never inquire about their performance. Never document anything related to their performance. Shutter your company in 5 years when you have a bloated payroll, terrible products, and nothing ever g

Yeah, that is bonkers. Let’s use some actual racism to fix some other deficiency, which we assume is the result of some previous racism.

This is a ridiculous thing to put in a software license and a completely toxic subject in general.

One thing I don’t understand is why states do not enact their own net neutrality legislation. As far as I know every state has a public utilities commission of some sort that regulates power, water, etc. Why could this not work for ISPs?

I agree. This is a braindead article. They admit in the opening paragraphs that social media is only tied to 10% of anti-refugee violence. What about the other 90%? Maybe there are some bigger issues going on and Facebook is just one of the

Agree completely. They mention that they were "arbitrarily chosen" and list luck, timing, etc. The fact of the matter is that it isn't arbitrary at all and hard work, talent, risk taking, etc. are all very strong filters. Sur

An incredible compliment to be sure.

This makes no sense. As far as I can tell they pulled property crime out of their definition of public safety, but left in the cost. This also flies in the face of the fact that the current era is one of the safest in history. I think many

I have written a few small apps in it and so far I like it. I hope it gets traction and we see broad support for it dev tools. Would be cool to have debugger support in rubymine or idea for example.

My thought exactly. Hardly a crisis. Best course of action: do nothing. But I’m sure there is somebody out there advocating for more enforcement, stricter fines, or even more authoritarian measures.

What a completely cynical and one sided view of a very complicated situation. First, dumping cheap labor and goods into a country has a very real impact on poor and working class people. Second of all, buying cheap crap made in China has a

In the US at least it is quite fashionable to be espouse vaguely anti-white sentiments. The double standard in this regard irritates me to no end. Most people would not be OK with this were the races in question swapped.

Thank you for speaking up. I have seen the same time and time again growing up. Yet people can’t believe it is true. Poverty is not just a lack of money.

I have quit jobs because we kept bad hires too long and then didn’t fight to keep good hires from walking away. I think grooming and retaining talent is just as important as providing technical leadership. You need to be strong in both area

Isn’t this blaming the victim in a way? How is it their fault that they are susceptible to “fake news”. They didn’t chose to be born dumb. Additionally, does it even matter? Intelligent people have their own blind spots and biases. The bigg

It’s very hard for me to reconcile. I love what craft brewing has done for the industry. But it has gone to a ridiculous and antithetical place. The culture has more in common with wine than beer at this point. It is no longer an “Everyman”

My god I dislike Alex Roy. This is a guy that made a name for himself doing speed runs cross country putting many innocent people at risk. Somehow he has bootstrapped that into having “the first serious review” of the model 3? Yeah right. A

I agree. It’s a pretty ridiculous perspective to develop out of a fairly common experience. How many people that bought Betamax developed a deep loathing of the home video industry? Not many I am thinking. Ultimately every person has to com

It’s not as if somebody held a gun to his head and made him sell. He got burned in his own quest for material. Blame the human condition rather than society.

People don't seem to remember or appreciate they quality of pre-iCloud versions of osx and ios. I remember buying Snow Leopard in a cardboard box from Microcenter for $20. It had almost no truly new features. Everything was focused on

I agree completely. This behavior is internally consistent within Ruby and the standard library and allows for some of the terseness of Ruby that I love. Things like =~ which return the position of the first regex match on a string (which c
