This is also why they drag their heels supporting MSE in mobile Safari. They want control. Technological possibilities be damned. Apple doesn’t give a shit about moving the world forward, they give a shit about moving Apple stock upward

Completely on point, but this community leans conservative/libertarian and will quite likely not see eye-to-eye with you on this.

The people I know that are the best at their job? No online presence. I do know a lot of very well paid engineers who happen to be good at selling their brand on those platforms, however. They’re just not the folks who blew me away in the

Violence has been a vanishingly small part of what are largely peaceful protests that continue to this day across the country. Be careful of the media you consume. It can rot your brain.

It doesn’t sound extremely stupid to me. I’m not a person of color but can imagine how it might feel like the right time to shrug certain terms out of our public discourse. That it does not upset you is of no consequence. That it may be hur

I’m aware of these biases. However, I still believe there to be a gentle conservative / libertarian slant here. It’s not just downvotes, it’s also the volume of content with that slant. I still think it’s a great place, fwiw. It’s not

I was shocked to see the other post that was “flagged.” The moderation and users here definitely skew far more conservatively than any polling is reporting. Also a shocking amount of support for Chinese governance.

I don’t agree that the CCP represents the majority of the people. I think it actively handicaps a large subset too. The world won’t forget the Uighurs. The world won’t forget Li Wenliang. Some of the people are wising up. We’ll see.

This is so absurd. We struggle to hire even remote work around the country. There just aren't enough qualified people for some of these more senior positions. "Never lose your edge." How about, enjoy your free time. Enjoy you

No one suggested it was magic. What it often is - statistically - is socioeconomics. It’s more or less the single best predictor of outcomes for you and yours. There are outliers, but we’re talking about broad systemic patterns. You evident

Hard disagree. A union is there solely to give employees a proper voice at the company. That this has by and large been to support working conditions historically is only because it was the issue of highest importance. If the concern is cor

It's frankly not true, though. I don't bother with side projects beyond having a simple personal website. I've worked at startups that have been acquired as well as the largest/most reputable employers in the valley. Per
