The matchups are deterministic. When they happen, however, is not. When making the schedules, they need to take into account rivalries (you probably don't want to have Cowboys/Redskins, Packers/Vikings, and Steelers/Beng

Other people want different things than you. The job market is better in SF than in most places in the country. There's more stuff to do and more diversity, leading to a bigger variety of things to do and things to eat.

I'm arguing that if there are good cops, they need to prove it. And the best way they can prove it is to stop protecting the bad cops.

Which, in the days before the Apple App Store, when one had to contact Verizon or AT&T to get your app available to cell phones, was the other way around. They would take 70%, and give you 30%.

The point being that a random guy hired off the street isn't getting those bonuses at all.

I think the reason that API is private is because people do not want that level of tracking. And there are very few applications which absolutely, positively need this level of accuracy. And, I'm sorry, but marketing/advertising d

No, that just means it's popular garbage.

They're not required, but they make things a whole lot easier.

Absolutely not. We hold cops to a higher standard. And I would have liked this guy to have gone home to his family.

No. That is not fair at all.

Except there are limits to what constitutes Probable Cause. A cop still needs to demonstrate that there was reason to believe they had Probable Cause, and things like a person's skin color don't factor into it. I threw the thing i

Given the complacency cops have toward the indiscretions of other cops, I can't agree with that. Perhaps if the good cops worked harder to root out the bad cops, instead of hiding behind the thin blue line, I'd agree.

While I agree with the second part, "Merit" isn't an unbiased descriptor. At the end of the day, deciding what criteria constitutes "Merit" and who has earned it is up to people. People with their own biases.

That doesn't mean the consumer is better off. The consumer is missing out on better products. The economy is also worse off, because it is missing out on competition which would drive the prices down, and provide jobs. In an ideal worl

"The first three markets named (airlines, telecommunications, health care) are all heavily regulated and the barrier to entries are controlled by the government, not natural market forces." Not true. It costs a lot of money to pur

Unless you can come up with something to dispute it, you are not entitled to your own facts.

It's easy for those who aren't affected by those social issues to consider them less important.

No, that would not be a free market. That would be a supplier abusing their market position.

by s73ver 10y ago
Who cares what it's called? Wouldn't we all prefer a fair market, even if it does mean regulation?

There's nothing about that action which would imply that consumers would get inferior products.

They've already tried. But the biggest thing about social networks is that they really only work if the people you want to be connected to are there. Diaspora was an open source social network, and it went nowhere. Ello was supposed to

I would fail to see how that duty would mean they'd have to do dishonest or immoral things.

But what's your pay rate relative to other tech companies? I have to ask, every time someone says they have lots of open positions and says they can't find qualified people: Why would someone want to come work at your company? I d

"You can't completely blame the actors taking advantage of it." Why not? Are they not run by adults? Are those adults not capable of taking responsibility for their own actions?

Money isn't everything. Being put through the bodyshops, the stress of making ends meet on those low wages, and not really being able to do things outside work takes it's toll.

That interpretation is a huge stretch.
