i don't understand a business concept that provides essentially a combination between what you get at a public library and what you get at a workplace for a fee. they are a "salon" for techno-imperialists who think they are t

the financial industry and poor people who happen to live in nyc are very, very, very disparate things. when you're the global headquarters for a globally important industries, you're in a separate world from the problems around y

I'm kind of sad it's come to the point where different regions of America claim they're "subsidizing" other regions populated by other Americans. I mean, I'm sick of "subsidizing" all the black people

I think they're lying when they say that they haven't seen a noticeable impact in usage. Plenty of people I know can see through their BS and want to delete their FB or already have. Society probably shouldn't use social medi

from a political perspective, no. if you care about actual technological accomplishments, as a technologist, peter thiel's endorsement should matter a lot.

Sampling is studied as a way to save time without running a census for every experiment. Many universities use this technique. An intro to stats course could probably be found on Coursera that will go into this.

I'll just say it, from someone who is similarly in your boat: if you're even questioning it, there's probably something there think about someone who is questioning their sexuality. there has to be some reason they're do

google is supposedly worth 800 billion. hasnt paid a dividend and probably never will. valuations are as much measurements of cult-ness as actual sustainable monetary gain. I'm suspicious of founder-led, constantly "reinvesting&qu

im not trying to be anything. its a cnbc headline, not some kid writing a term paper. if you know the subject it should be a mediocre joke. why are you calling people elitist for math jokes on a programming forum??

Bitcoin is an economy for illicit things. It is a store of value for early adopters trying to get people to basically put money in their pocket. The only thing people care about is its value against USD. That alone refutes the possibility o

I was trying to be provocative. I'm just saying, politics is a sensitive subject, and to you, "equalizing property taxes" might seem righteous, but in reality it could mean someone else losing their home. I think prop 13 is g

wanting to solve a defined problem is a much better reason to join a certain company than on name alone. clearly the author just wanted a better salary. fine. i agree that this has a limit. if one were to want to fix facebook's problem

Give me your stock options. You're just a selfish beneficiary of the pyramid scheme that is the US technology industry.

There are cities in the US with housing at $20/square foot. There is plenty of space for people who can't afford to live here. That is literally 100 times cheaper than the most expensive real estate in CA. Why won't Google pu

tax assessment would raise money but it would cost money. by costing money some businesses may leave. for example, amgen just put a new plant in RI instead of california.

i don't want california to grow. the traffic is too bad and people are less happy. in fact, i've been cheering trump deporting all 3 million illegal immigrants here because it's a legal way to alleviate the housing crisis. CA

sorry, i deleted that comment because it was..a little too much. i would caution anyone with the resources to purchase a home to be cautious right now. there are too many political unknowns that could easily make it a poor financial choice.

I totally agree with more housing stock. I am a huge fan of Wieiners bill, except with the exception that some cities should not have an 8 story maximum. He is modeling it after Boston, and I've lived there, and huge complexes near tra

Oh give me a break. What Russia did was "inbound marketing" to stump for Trump. It worked remarkably. They did a viral campaign, the exact thing social media is designed for. There are no safeguards against misrepresentation, bots

I feel like your whole perspective is skewed towards you, as a newcomer, feeling entitled to everything here. Your industry (tech) is causing values to skyrocket. Which is fine, but not everyone in a single area is going to work in one indu
