Square has excellent developer documentation! Hopefully it's in good hands after you've left. It would suck if the quality degraded.

I agree with you in general, but unfortunately things are never that simple. Most companies do good too, otherwise they wouldn't exist.

the two wrongs in this case are the supposed wrong you did originally, and then the "wrong" of hypocrisy. I agree with your overall point, though.

This is good advice, but even if you don't, it's possible that someone else on your team will.

Oh I completely agree.

Wouldn't the easy solution to this class of problems be to require some sort of physical device to be connected to your machine in order to access certain sets of data? Assuming the device itself couldn't be spoofed, wouldn't

Do you believe this kind of thing is simply unavoidable? I wonder if this could've been avoided by simply making it impossible to access data without being connected to a VPN in addition to having some sort of physical device connected

No no. My point probably just wasn't properly conveyed. In the original post I replied to the person the person encouraged their friends to use Lyft after hearing about the terrible things over at Uber. Presumably they want friends to

It's not about changing things you support, it's just about consistency in your actions. Taking the child labor thing into account, never being brand new electronics again would pretty much take care of that. One could make an arg

> We probably all hate forced child labor A false premise. If that were true, just like you stated, we wouldn't support it. Actions speak louder than words, and all that. EDIT: I realize I sound far more judge-y than intended in the

My overall point is that people don't actually care. It's just virtue signaling. If people cared they'd have consistency in their actions. For example, you probably are very consistent in the fact that you probably will never

The point is that if you know that the US kills civilians yet you stay in the US, giving them money through tax, the majority of which is used to fund the very same military that kills civilians, yet claim to do the right thing, that's
283.
by tabeth 9y ago
I disagree. One needs to be consistent in their actions, otherwise, what's the point? Two wrongs don't make a right, after all. EDIT: Er, I agree that hypocrisy shouldn't stop you from doing the right thing.

You'll find that thinking like that will only lead to misery at worst and hypocrisy at best. For example, if you live in the United States (though this logic applies to any country, really), you'll be interested to know that the U

Without the location (Country, State, City) the pay isn't really contextualized properly.

Yeah, that's why you use escrow, or an intermediary service. By the way, I never claimed you should use cash. In fact, most of the criticism I have towards Bitcoin also applies to cash, as you've sarcastically pointed out.
287.
by tabeth 9y ago
Why would you want that? What happens if you have a fraudulent transaction? How is it reversed? What about coercion? Blackmail, etc. By the way, you can transfer cash without any intermediaries. You literally just hand it over. I think bloc

What are a few things you can do with Bitcoin that you couldn't do without it?

I really wonder what the purpose of these kinds of articles are. Millionaires become billionaires? People who attend prestigious universities get rich?

I'd be curious to know if this cost is similar with Ember's implementation of SSR, Fastboot.

This is so obvious I thought it was satire. The assertion the title makes, "SHOWING GENDER ROLES AREN’T PROGRESSING", is also laughable. It's the equivalent in ridiculousness as saying that because men admire beautiful intell

Given that the vast majority of situations in which you tip (notably waiters, waitresses and other staff) result in the tip being given after service, and not before, I'm OK with that.

It boggles me that anyone believes this. It's called leverage. Not everyone has equal ability, nor equal ability to change jobs for a variety of reasons.

by tabeth 9y ago
Your story is a great reminder to why tipping is pointless (among many other reasons, such as [1]) If you do decide to tip, you should hand the person you want to have the money cash -- that's the only way you can be for sure they&#x27

Whether or not they can be beaten is one thing. The other thing is whether or not they'll fail to buy their competitor.

> The difference is that it's a choice whether to use Google and Facebook. This is normally used as the main argument. I disagree. That's like saying you have a choice on whether or not you use electricity, which is technically

I feel that it's kind of hypocritical to be to be OK with companys like Google and Facebook to have more and more leverage on the internet and information in general, yet care about net neutrality. That being said, I'm for net neu
