Honestly I don't think there is much fuel added on both sides. This argument is age old. Since I was in middle school boys were asserting to me that due to biological reasons I probably wasn't as capable as them as I was very comp

The author was fired but I certainly wouldn't describe the reason as due to "any little thing they say". Most of the time people are fired for harassment, which can be nuanced but a normal company compliance training can get

If the system works then it must be worth $40000 to the users of the block chain. There is a valid point to be made about energy efficiency but this possibly is right for the price of securing a global "bank".

A pyramid scheme works such that if the growth stops, the whole pyramid collapses. It is dependent on newcomers. With crypto, if anyone leaves or growth stops the price simply goes down. It doesn't collapse. It's more like stock.

I hear you. That sounds very nice, but a work environment can simply never be the same as hanging out with a friend over lunch. There needs to be some way to discourage harassment and promote a positive, friendly work environment that value

Google must be a pretty interesting place to work in with an opt in group for these types of discussions. I guess that could be good but it seems like their informality might be coming to bite them. Maybe I've just been exceptionally g

Who says we need 50% women in tech? Has Google released a statement on this? While I have seen some inflammatory articles on the subject I don't know that many woman care if there are 50% woman in tech. I can tell you as a female engin

I appreciate everything you said. It was tough for me studying an engineering degree in college but since then working has been a breath of fresh air. I feel I owe a lot of that to the spirit of professionalism within companies. It's i

While I agree with you, the article did not mention that any unfair advantage was being given to women yet I've seen so many claim this. Instead it says "the author argues that women are underrepresented in tech not because they f

Usually if it takes work to distinguish it's not worth it within a work environment. That's why professional environments are effective and make a pleasant place to work for all.

If that were true and significant, it would mean the company would bleed talent and become such an uncomfortable place to work that a competitor would gain advantage. That's why the market works. For the record, I've heard the exa

As a female engineer I don't resonate with the proposed changes for woman working with other people etc. I'm a very independent worker and that's partly why I've thrived in this field. In short, I don't think compan

It's a mixture of things - it was very difficult yesterday to trade either. There could also been an influx of fiat into BCC. Also the supply of BCC is constrained by the exchanges which don't want to "interact" with it.

by taysic 9y ago
You can say the value of BTC was propped yesterday by that logic too since many exchanges froze transactions. BCC is far from pointless since it serves those who have a different ideology. Whether it remains as valuable is uncertain. Whethe

by taysic 9y ago
Makes sense but if the value BCC is at sustains itself, it would make sense that customers see that value as considerable and lost if they can't reclaim it later on. Ironically, not "interacting" with that chain only serves t

by taysic 9y ago
Yea you get 100 BCC but you only get double the money if the value of BCC will be equal to BTC prior to the fork. More realistically they will both drop so that the two chains will be equivalent in value before the fork. However, no one rea

It might impact a normal user if one chain is seen to be more effective at handling larger load. There were long delays previously in bitcoin that caused transactions to not go through for hours from my understanding.
