Is there some reason that I'm seeing the word "cromulent" more and more now? (for those not in the know the word is originally from a Simpsons episode in the mid 90's)

I saw "request a demo" so presumably it's not free and that's a problem. Also Discord works in most browsers so the person they are interviewing doesn't need to download anything

In my opinion the issues are close to the surface because the social enlightenment that much of the US experienced is a very recent thing. The best example is how the views on homosexuality has shifted in the last 20 years but it's als

As long as they would allow me to do it on company time it would be a nice distraction from work.

Like everything in work you can't do it if it interferes with your professional relationships. If it's necessary for doing your job that's a different story but that's rarely actually the case.

The much more common sentiment among my liberal friends is that after Trump they want someone who knows what the hell they are doing and Oprah is not that person. Maybe it's just the liberals I know but they have so far all been hostil

I don't choose what other people find upsetting and if being a little more cognizant of what is on this chart helps me not inadvertently upset people I don't understand how that is an issue. I think the chart is supposed to help u

I was expecting some horrible pdf akin to some crazy 'liberals' on twitter but that pdf actually does a decent job explaining why these can be upsetting in some situations (it's not like the writer thinks that asking where so

I think you are looking at it in too strict a sense and there is a lot of room between 1 and 2. His speculation on why there are less women in tech ended up really coming across as insulting to many of his colleagues as well as portraying h

It seems to me that it would make much more sense that they are looking forward to the case because they think they have a strong case that they DIDN'T do any of that stuff. It seems strange that they would look forward to a case where

If you read the article the mangers don't talk about conservative views but 'anti-diversity' views, which make more sense how they can make an environment more "hostile".

It seems to me that automation is not an issue besides for income inequality, which you can solve without some tax on 'automation' that would likely stifle real productivity increases (also I don't understand how we would tax

Wouldn't the value be calculated as whatever the government payed for them just like the rest of GDP? Maybe I'm misunderstanding how government spending is added to GDP but the fact that the amount spent on something doesn't

From traveling Europe I honestly thought that it felt cheap in a lot of places so maybe it is just a traveling thing.

Wouldn't not including government expenditures make GDP a worse metric? They are the largest spender in every country and I don't see why it should matter who is buying something for GDP purposes

The orders registered with the SEC and all these cancellations would attract a lot of their attention. I have no doubt they would see through it pretty easily once they started investigating

Yeah, with how much people talk about diversity being important in investment I'm surprised selling stock is ever news. Also with all the regulation and scrutiny around them selling stocks it makes it even less likely that it actually

This guy had 3 offers with 14 applications so he did pretty well. Interviewing is always stressful and can be upsetting but I personally haven't found it too bad (I actually found applying to graduate schools much worse than applying f

I think it's a matter of differing opinions, I didn't find those ads particularly suggestive. I see people in similar outfits at the gym all the time and for the bra ads there's no good way to sell it without the model being

The thing is that ad blockers don't often don't discriminate between acceptable ads and unacceptable ads and just block everything. Even if you put a lot of effort to make your ads better most people will just block them regardles

In my view it's because immorality only really affects a company if it's perceived as immoral (i.e. is a PR issue)

The thing to me is that you should still need a third party to arbitrate disputes and get the system to function (you can't implement all the weird edge cases of laws) so it wouldn't be trustless and shouldn't require a block

I agree but it's the market that's the issue, the government has little to do with it

If you don't like how a corporations handles speech you don't need to use their services. The social media corporations are not being controlled at this point by the government and these issues of free speech are being implemented

Firstly the people saying that birth is hard in this article are scienstists who study birth in humans. Human births are much longer, more complex, and more painful than most other mammals and this article goes into some arguments as to why

Just fyi to people making almond milk this way is often more expensive than just buying almond milk from the store unless you have a cheap way to buy almonds in bulk.

People aren't ignoring that point, it's just that for the university to pay the tax it means that they would have to pay thousands of dollars per student and that funding has to come from somewhere.

I can respect that view but I don't personally view that as the bigger problem. I think that the amount of liberals who think that genuine right wing political views are alt-right is also a very small group. Also I'm not sure they
