The problem is there but the current AA is not helping. Here is what might work: - Harvard is required to do only merit base admission - Harvard is required to increase diversity. They will be required to achieve that by investing in high

And what is role of product managers then? What should they do? The idea of product managers to be cross functional team between sales, support and engineering. Sure you can make engineers to do sales too: but you will end up with product

That is true. I forgot about that. And why did they check for scars? Because people were forging their vaccination certificate (like now with COVID). So this mandate thing did not really worked well.

The problem is that this is a very first mandate for vaccination we ever imposed on ordinary people. The US has very complex society and diverse population, so mandates do not work and might create backclash. I think mass vaccination can be

Correct — everybody knows that Mohammed Nuru [1] was not the only corrupted one. He was just the only one caught. The problem is that these kind of corruptions is so hard to catch and prove. [1] https://www.justice.gov/usao-

This is 100% correct. In theory, all errors should: explain the input, explain the problem and explain how to solve the problem (actions). And that should help and reduce number of support calls. However, error messages and actions how to s

If they just replied back and said “oh no - mistake: AirTags are allowed” then there will be no story. But they did not. So I called them and their customer support was not able to tell me. So I started believing that they really will not a

Mistake happens. if the lower-level customer service rep fucks up, you just tweet again saying that it is wrong. But they said nothing. For about 6 days. And on their twitter accout I do not see: hi so sorry we made mistake. AirTags are all

I do not know… it seems like Lufthansa messed up here. Lufthansa official twitter account clearly said: “Hi David, Lufthansa is banning activated AirTags from luggage as they are classified as dangerous and need to be turned off./Mony”

Google is NOT in trouble. Our perception that Google is not an ad company is in trouble.

I always wonder about that. Maybe the first two are the most important? Many companies have a policy to give a discount, upgrade or similar if customer asks nicely for it. But somehow majority of people are just rude and they want discount

It is not clear. Why people in Caucasu region live so long? They only eat meat and cheese? But maybe it is true. Anyway, “Meat is not healthy” is distraction against the real killer: sugar. The main problem in typical American diet is way

I knew you will mentioned North Carolina :) Will definetelly try to visit it. Regarding Chicago and Michigan: I have to say “nope”. California is way way nicer to visit. There nothing even remotely similar to Palm Springs. Or Monterey bay.

There are few reasons why Silicon Valley is successful: 1) weather (no tornados, no super humid days, no snow) 2) proximity of great places (Lake Tahoe, Monterey, Napa valley, …) 3) good universities (Berkeley, standford, UCSF, …) 4) immigr

Interesting. On the other hand, I learn that working in car sales might teach you about wrong sales "skills". At least, one does not learn skills needed for companies which want to have relationship with their customers. But you a

Yeah .. sadly that is true in majority of workplaces. The right boss will keep their ego in check and ask: “what do you think? Do have any reservations?” It is also desirable to argue about something: back and forth “but what about this”. B

All these problems are because gov do not offer health care and we have strange regulations that certain employees (not all) need to offer it. So if they do crack down on “taking advantage” then a new set companies will arise: Uber-driver s

I have very simple way of figuring if something will succeed ir it is a scam. If CEO have some experience in the field then it might succeed (workday, salesforce, okta, etc.) If not, then it is probably a scam. Of course, there are exceptio

Why do they need cloudflare? That is the problem. We (the US) need a build global infrastructure which will provide basic security and DoS protection for any website hosted in US: 100% free and public. Website might choose not use it. Sure

The biggest problem when running restaurants is staffing. The biggest. When owner fixes that (you have good chefs, waiters, bartenders, etc.) quality improves and customers just come back. I know a few friends running and owning restaurants
