And I see no problem with that. Why would being liberal mean to support extreme leftist regulatory policy here? Why would we consider, letting those government officials, who may not have the expertise understanding the subject at hand, in

I see SV is generally very socially liberal, but when it comes to monetary policy, the ideology behind it is still neoliberalism, thus their attitude towards regulation isn't really hard to understand. And under the risk of downvotes,

Realistically it will work only when the job market liquidity is low. Think of Japan, where changing job is like a lifetime event, training is graciously provided, since the firm assumed that your loyalty is guaranteed. Or in case of some c

One thing the current company oftentime couldn't offer is a change of scope and focus, bigger companies tend to be better since they have many more teams that work on very different projects. Another observation I had is that the upwar

I think the reason is simple: once the junior dev is trained, they will leave. To be clear, I am not saying that they are obliged to stay in the company that trained them or being ungrateful in any sense, I am simply implying this is a comm

It is not like that if Amazon didn't build it, other government agencies will stay there in vain. Facial recognition service is very easy to build these days, provided that sufficient data is presented, and government has plenty of suc

I don't think there are many self-claimed libertarians actually voice for open-borders. It is just an extension of interpretation out of the theorists. Limited government doesn't mean a complete denial of necessary national govern

In which way? Libertarians aren't necessarily globalists. They are just indifferent towards the concept. But if the globalists weave in too much influence, it would definitely been seen from an libertrain's perspective, a threat t

Would surprised to know if they are paying half of what Facebook is paying to new grad, which can reach 200k. Well, i think saying Facebook has a negative effect on the resume is definitely a stretch. It is probably more proper to say that

It is clear that Assange is both libertarian and anti-globalist. His attitude towards 2016 elections is predictable and consistent with his world view.

I guess they are similar, but Douyin in China has much more diverse content, covering food/skits, or just funny video in general, while US version seems more heavily focused on dancing/lip-sync.

Problem is, there is no way to compare creativity between the founders of 2 different genres. Is Tolkien more creative than Allan Poe? That would be a very pretentious question. I am not sure why the grand OP claim that Jin Yong's work

His books are not easy read for western readers. The language is intentionally archaic and the cultural barriers are high. So as always, if you want to have a taste of his work, movies are your best friends. Below is a good one: https:
