The word "exploit" has no meaning at all if you can stretch it so far as to cover NYC tech employees.

The Warpstream engineers are very strong in the space. Buying the company gets you the tech, the customers, the name, and the talent that built it. Building it gets you only the first, and significantly behind the first mover.

I'm broadly a Go fan, but this strikes me as a terrible decision. Critical tools should not be working through magic like this. Just fail with a clear error and let the user fix it as they see fit. If they want magic like this, it shou

I agree with everything you say here, except for the asynchronous part. It's much better for a team to see each other face to face for a few minutes a day, especially for remote teams. It's wildly higher throughput than bullet poi

As I understand it, public airspace starts at about 500 feet from ground. Is a delivery drone flying lower than that over your property trespassing? I would personally be furious to have these things flying around my home. Noise aside, thes

The steel-man argument is that men have historically dominated society and decreasing their influence is a leveling process. That is to say, when one group is dominant and another submissive, lowering the influence of the first and increasi

They do have a stake in their performance. It's their salary. If their performance is poor, in a functioning system they lose that salary.

That's a nonsensical definition. By that standard literally everything is political, which means the word has no meaning. That rubric is a lazy way for activists to try to smuggle their opinions into environments that frown on politici
