You shouldn't be downvoted. A lot of people make a lot of money off of tips. Does that translate to most? No, but this incentivizes many people to be pro-tip.

I didn't say it was, in fact, I stated that it wasn't, and showed the example. However the scale of BLM far dwarfed the scale of the failed insurrection - it is much less monolithic, and has much less central leadership.

A lot of developers think that way, just like everyone else in their jobs, thinking they could do it better. When they realize it's more soft skill oriented, endless meetings, power point deck after power point deck, stakeholder after

It's not a monolith like the capitol insurrection was and you're conflating the riots with the protests when they are two different things. When the protestors were outside hearing the president speak it was a protest. When they t

A product manager is like a category manager in supply chain. It's not a people management position.

by ntsplnkv2 6y ago
Yep. This all sounds nice, but developers/designers rarely want to do PM work. The PM position is as much a creation of developers who don't want to interact as it is management. Even developers that do don't want to spend al

That's a pretty confident position to take. Really war could be all around us. If climate change continues unabated, large swaths of the earth will no longer be able to produce food. Hot temperatures will cause mass migration (we'

This is very true, but you also don't need a machine gun to wage war. It's just far more efficient at killing people than your homemade bow and arrow.

The anxiety from modernity hits different today. We are bombarded with the most realistic forms of imagery ever in human history. What was once a black and white picture in a magazine is now a video in HD. 50-60 years ago you weren't c

Thanks for sharing. Can you only play select games in the subscription? Do they ever get removed? I'm just trying to see why it is struggling. It seems like a great concept

I just don't see the value add of stadia. Can someone explain? Why would a gamer choose it over a PS5 or Xbox?

Maps on AC is a game changer for me. Anytime I've never been to a place I use it, and I sometimes use it for other things like if I'm in an unfamiliar place and want to stop for food or find a store. Simple voice command. New rout

This isn't how life works. If spoiler work fails instantly you can say it wasn't done properly, which is true. You then withhold payment, or sue. Not that complicated. Not worth a damn novel post from you either.

That's your fault for buying it then. If you don't state what you want in a contract, this will always happen. All you SV elitists do it, you just want to hoard the wealth for yourselves. It's not just deloitte, all the SVs d

If they didn't deliver a functioning website as per the CDCs requirements they shouldn't have been paid. If the CDC signed off on it, it isn't deloitte's fault. Sorry.

by ntsplnkv2 6y ago
They didn't meet the deliverable so they shouldn't be paid. This isn't rocket science. Think.

Not really, the charge times are really slow compared to a gas fill up, and you won't be able to fullycharge.

I care about climate change but electric cars are too expensive. The poor always suffer. Rich people will buy endless junk but since they can afford a tesla they think they're doing something

People have been driving gas cars for years. We're doing just fine. Sorry we can't afford luxury electric cars like the rich SV people on here

The bare minimum is the deliverable. If it's "a working website that does X, Y, Z" and they deliver that, what is the problem? That's what was asked for. > thinking about the customer, understanding the right technol

You're right, we should just expect free work from all developers. Because if you want to be a good developer, you have to meet this imaginary bar made up by other developers who want to show off about how "much extra work we do.&

EV cars will get there and so too the infrastructure but it isn't there yet. Americans like big vehicles. This is solely lacking in the electric department. Americans also like convenience - no matter how many ways you try to slice and

This is where the stats people taking over is bad for society. Yea that's their commute - what about soccer practice, the gym, the store, visiting grandma, etc. It's unrealistic to say "welp 32 a day we're good."

Or I can just use gas, and not have to worry about it.

by ntsplnkv2 6y ago
It's another thing to think about though. If you need gas it's 5 minutes. if you need emergency electric charge, well, you're screwed.

Get a used toyota corolla. It'll last for hundreds of thousands of miles with minimal issues if you maintain it (oil change, brakes, etc.) At the cost you'll pay, even if it does break down, it'll still be far, far less than

We need third party data, Tesla has incentive to fudge those numbers.

They're getting paid for a deliverable. Why do you expect free work?

I hope you're right - I truly believe that post 2012 social media has been a cancer on society, in addition to the 24/7 newscycle. But I somehow am not as optimistic as you are. People far underestimate the power of twitter/f
