"If you ever run a company you'll know that job creators exist." No they don't. There are people who want work done, and people who provide that work. That's it. You're not "creating jobs" simply beca

The author is in the field of graphic design. It's not unreasonable that they wouldn't have much exposure to that.

In this case, cash is still more expensive because they have to have the cash, and they have to have it now. It costs almost nothing to issue the tiny percentage of stock you'd receive, and they don't have to worry about actually

"He could pay them $0/hr by not giving them the jobs." I've always found that to be the absolute shittiest of rebuttals, given by those who have absolutely no point whatsoever. This person is not "giving" anyon

I half expected it to be a static site with the word NO in big, bold letters.

As the case shows, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever that a company should be allowed to compel an employee to surrender their genetic material.

I'm not missing anything. I'm asking you when you've ever actually seen something like that happen. The answer is you haven't. So saying that the public can "fire" a private prison is worthless as not only do t

I'm saying they shouldn't consider a solution being something that restricts they're employees. They should be looking at why people want to leave, instead of how they can prevent people from leaving.

And a miniscule amount have gotten rich off of equity. Your point?

It's not complicated. If the company is that bad that people want to leave as soon as they're vested, then the company deserves to fail.

You have to be a pretty shitty company to think this is an acceptable solution to #4.

Actually, it is hard. Why are the employees the only ones that have to take it on the chin?

And sometimes a family needs to pay rent and buy food but doesn't have the money.

by s73v3r 11y ago
Why? When did simply having money become more valuable than actually doing the work?

Why? Why do we, arguably the part of the startup that is responsible for the valuation, have to accept that?

Why are you using the word "corrupt" to describe the other side, but not Uber? Everything I've seen about them is just as corrupt, or even more so.

Nitpick: The "sharing" economy is where the company depends on a bunch of contractors to do the actual work, and just takes some off the top.

"The only difference is that if there are two prison companies, and one of them is really bad, citizens can fire it (through pressure on their elected representatives) and hire another with relative ease." You don't honestly

"Is there any reason to believe that private prisons are significantly worse than publicly run prisons?" They have a profit motive to lobby for harsher penalties, and to do the absolute bare minimum for prisoner housing and health

There is no way in hell that you will get someone to pay an application fee on top of having to burn a vacation or sick day.

And while bringing Emacs/Vim up to acceptable GUI editor standards might be possible (MacVim does an alright job of this), I'm guessing that a lot of the head Emacs/Vim people would be against it, and wouldn't want to me

If it was NIH, then why did they use the existing Atom editor?

Are you trying to suggest that I could pay my rent with a song?

But most people either can't or don't want to.

When Blackberry and Nokia were leading things, smartphones were far less popular, and the market for smartphone software far less so. Thus, if you wanted something to run on your smartphone, you paid for it. But nowadays, people aren't

No, we see that because those people want to be rich, but not actually have to work. Seriously, the barrier to entry is stupid low, and yet they're not clammoring to implement their own idea. Why?

One of the biggest values I get from a smartphone, and I suspect the vast majority of otherse are with me, is the fact that it connects me to the global repository of human knowledge. Cutting off the internet would neuter it to me.

Unless I'm mistaken, a Cray supercomputer generally had a dedicated and consistent power supply, i.e. they're plugged in. Most phones aren't, and battery technology is still not at the point where you could achieve constant p
