I think The Register's take does a way better job of describing this manifesto. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/17/zuckerberg_publishe...

I grew in a rural setting, my dad always likened our upbringing to driving down an old country road. He would say, "I just tried to keep you out of the bar ditch".

Agreed. I'm not sure exactly what I read, but I couldn't piece together a single coherent line of thought as we jumped from sketchy individual developers to requirements gathering, something about UX, valleys, zombies, Salesforce

The fact that Tim's compensation is tied to sales goals says all you need to know about Apple as a company. The idea presented here by Steve about what happens when sales people run the company is becoming more and more true: https:&#

There are three companion posts to this one that you might want to read because they'll fill in some assumptions you're making. Primarily, for existing employees the program was opt-in, such that "[n]ot joining would mean th

There are three companion articles to this one which answer questions like this. The answer to your question from the "how" article: "Not joining would mean that others won’t know about that person’s salary and that person w

I'm interested in your thoughts on how you came about the idea. I don't want to be disparaging but do you consider it "lucky" that you had a friend point you towards selling art reproductions online? Were you already t

As someone that also works in Boulder, is your compensation enough to allow you to actually live in Boulder?

Why do you think it would be hard on a college campus? You simply declare an office in a building to be a "safe space", or a space designated for certain groups and then promote, encourage the use of, and fill it with people that

That's not what the quote said, nor the context of it, the parent was trying to equate 'offending others' as 'being an asshole'. The actual quote is "54 percent of students said the climate on campus prevents s

You called out the fact that you see repeating patterns in the industry, and go on to mention Node.js as a great environment for rapid prototyping. That made me chuckle because that's exactly what I heard about RoR just a few years ag

My advice would be to look at smaller towns and neighborhoods. I grew up in a "city" of 30k, with many smaller towns of 500-10k within the county. We roamed every inch of the neighborhood. All the neighbors within 5-6 houses in

My first thought as well: why am I trusting a middleman with this? IMO if you're trusting a third-party to provide government-issued ID verification you're asking for trouble.

Garbage article by some author that just wants to be able to claim 'I told you so' or 'I said it first'. Given that the author runs a market research / consulting firm this is basically a shill piece to help drum u

Except the law does come into. If the coordinates in Niantic's database are on private property, then you'd be trespassing.

You aren't alone in your realization. I did the PSP for a while and found the same. We are about one month into a three-month experiment where we are asking people to track time on their activities (mix of IT and developers). For som

I could have done without the first half of the post telling me that I (or others) are mediocre, then going on to tell me how the author (and his fellows) are not just because they strive to be the "Best in the World". This just r

I would say "the more you know about someone like you"... To me that would correlate with other studies based on first impressions, hiring, etc., where we sometimes subconsciously seek out people like us. Similar to another comme

The summary seems to be all positive regarding women's contributions except for the last one: "Women have lower acceptance rates as outsiders when they are identifiable as women.". Looking at the data, they say that the accep

Wait what? It feels like you're trying to argue with the results of Moore's law. How does it make zero sense that what would have taken years on 1990s hardware now may only take weeks on 2016 hardware? Why do you think recommend

No. Everyone knows the meaning of the pause button (and the others), because the word "pause" was written above or below the fucking symbol on VCRs, tape players, etc, for DECADES. So no, manufacturers didn't just beat cons

Exactly. I don't care what they are saying, they are simply clever enough to say "retired" instead of admitting what their situation really is.

Agreed. While the method may be new (a university fund specifically dedicated to startups), the fact is that academic research has led to the creation of companies, patents, etc., in other fields for decades now. TFA: "The University

The most salient point he makes is when he says there's a difference in what email was designed and how we use it today. And it sounds like Slate needs better tools. Do you even Confluence / JIRA (or insert your preference here)?

I know this is HN but could we (maybe for 2016?) quit confusing Silicon Valley with the rest of the world. There is nothing in TFA or Facebook's new headquarters (or Google, or Apple) that says anything about real work being taken pla

Based upon my knowledge of EMV liability, the merchant would still be clear from fraudulent charges if they had an EMV reader. If the device tells the reader it can't do chip & pin, then the buyer is the least secure part of the t
