What if the politics in question concern work? I'd love to live in the society you (apparently) live in where work and the rest of reality apparently don't interact with each other at all.

I suspect the main reason it's difficult is because of the individualistic nature of western nations. In a society where people live with multiple generations of family raising children is probably much, much easier. Add to this the fa

I disagree with most of the advice here. There's only one thing you need to be able to do: buy the "Elements of Programming Interviews" and be able to solve any problem in it within 30 minutes. Cracking the Coding Interview&#

When has an average American been severely and personally harmed from surveillance? If you can't answer that without caveats then you have no chance of convincing her in my opinion. In other words, you have to prove that the harms of s

One thing you should learn is how to answer these types of questions on your own -- you'll be doing it a lot once you begin your career (searching "how to code" would yield a lot of useful results). As for your question: A fe

Wealth distribution is one thing, the process of wealth distribution is another.

I'm not sure how this would work in practice. Thoughts are incredibly noisy. Any mechanism that could filter out the noise basically can decipher intent. I'd argue intent deciphering is the actual problem trying to be solved by th

I agree with you, however, how would you propose that we ensure compliance in respect to money being used for intended purposes?

There's a lot to digest in this article: 1) Absentee landlords are terrible. I can't say I know what the solution is, but perhaps simply lowering the price of the houses until the (low income) workers could afford to buy and the

Why does anyone have to change anything? If a site decides to allocate resources towards content vs. speed is that so bad?

I don't see the point of AMP. Why not just give certain sites a little icon/preference if they're faster than XXXms? Glad to see this letter says as much.

I don't see how anyone could complain about this. Companies will simply create more titles and then better illustrate the skills needed to be promoted.

I realized this as well. On my to-do list is to build the "Difference Engine". The Difference Engine does the following: - When you go to a website the response of the request is saved. - When you go to the website again, the new

Yes. All effort would go towards finding a way to circumvent the rules (logic, physics, causality, etc.). People already do this with the "reality" they know, imagine what would happen if nigh-omnipotence were a realistic possibil

I dunno if sitting is bad or not -- but ever since I got a fitted desk and put a Deskcycle under it I've felt super great. It's a bit awkward always being a little bit sweaty though (I put in ~50 miles a day). https://d

This is a great question -- I think the jury is still out on this one. Someone will eventually figure out the right set of incentives, in the right quantities, targeted to the right groups that'll make it work, though.

The real question is why people care so much about working for Google. If you're good, then you'll find success with or without Google, and if you're not good, then why would one complain about Google not hiring them when you

You're focusing too much on the amount of time, but fine. I'm going to assume you're 30. 15 minutes for a 5 years old is at least 90 minutes for a 30 year old. Would you wait an hour and a half for a marshmallow? I'm g

Indeed I am. Clearly there must be some factor that resulted in the difference in the ability to delay -- whatever that factor is called, it has to be the "means." Why should you wait 15 minutes to get another one instead of eatin
