> For a man talking to a man, all of the above are just plain fine. Really? I wouldn't do most of your examples, personally. I'm curious if I'm the weird one here.

Why wouldn't you treat everyone the same?

I'm curious: would you call a man sweetie?

I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about? Is it that difficult to just treat women -- not nicely -- but equally? This is kindergarten level stuff, people. Keep your hands to yourself, be nice, don't ask overly personal que

True, however: 1. A single bus represents dozens of cars that would otherwise be on the highway in the case that all passengers previously had car based commutes. 2. As long as the average speed is greater than or equal to the car it would

Sure, but by that logic, why not extend rapid transit -- it's far more traveled than all of the commuter rail lines combined.

Heh, this pretty much summarizes it: https://i.reddituploads.com/ed7d8ee6c6b84fe2b1ad51aab4e29588...

It's not bad. EMUs are a net-new capex, though.

I'd say my argument is that rail based transport is inherently flawed given the politics surrounding funding its maintenance. Using the highway is better and more politically digestible, IMO. 1. Buses would encourage better maintenance

Given that the MBTA is a money losing organization I'm not sure revenue maximization is necessarily the strategy that should be sought.

by tabeth 9y ago
Sure, but why should the MBTA care about the Providence Line in particular, as opposed to say, Worcester or other parts of Massachusetts?
342.
by tabeth 9y ago
I'm 100% against new tracks being laid or any more capital expenditures to the MBTA (anyone who goes on the Red Line during rush hour, or the commuter rail during the winter knows it sucks). The current system needs better maintenance,

What is the point then? Why not just stop targeting people in general?

It's not really frustrating, but just feedback. It's way more than 1% of the time. Type in best and try out the first 5 examples -- 40% of them are inaccurately reported. FWIW every service akin to this has the same issue.

honest feedback: the only thing with this, and most things like it is that it's not actually accurate. type in best -> see it's "available" -> go to namecheap -> see it is not unavailable. Once this happens onc

honest question: why is it OK if it's adult that's targeted but not OK if it's children? Literally any argument you apply to the latter applies to the former: 1. still developing -> adults technically are, too. 2. more nai

I don't get the point of these. Index funds win most of the time, and when they don't index funds still win once you count the amount of time and effort needed to marginally beat them. Set it and forget it.

Looks very interesting. One thing I've been wanting is a VM that would contain a "minimized" version of an operating system, plus a single program, in addition to the programs dependencies. I've looked into using Docker

Why don't you buy now? If may be worth $10,000 in the future. Though, it may also be worthless, too.

I disagree. What's valuable, and therefore compensation, is a matter of opinion, not fact.

Transparency aside, I've seen little evidence that employers can properly measure the exact value an employee adds to their organization. The reason for most of these problems lies there. If employers could solve that there wouldn&#x27

If the unemployment rate increased 3.6% tomorrow, I guess you wouldn't think it's a big deal, right? After all, it's not even 4%! The lack of sympathy people show these days. Sheesh.

It's always funny to me that instead of being angry, most people just say, "oh, well, they're not the only ones." What a world we live in. "Apple, Google and others colluded to suppress employee wages." >

1. If you know the teams you'd be on, pick the company with the team you prefer. 2. If you don't know the teams, just pick the better offer. They're very similar in a generalized sense.

This is not a fair comparison: 1.) The real cost for an Uber ride is opaque, at best. 2.) Unlike Uber, public transportation becomes exponentially better with infrastructure upgrades. These upgrades would cease (in both mind and in implemen

I believe capitalism works, however, "bad" actions are not properly punished. Case and point is the Equifax hacking which should have a company ending punishment, not a slap on the wrist. Once people and governments start punishin

How can someone say that Level 5 driving without lidar is impossible? How exactly are humans driving then? Ridiculous. I'm still skeptical that it can be implemented successfully, though, given that we still don't have Level 5 wit

I imagine getting any security best practices (as defined by the employee) implemented to be as much as a political challenge as it is technical. With that said, most technical people don't want to be politicians.
