I think for such a huge company it's both hard - Not to have many accusations - Not to be guilty to some degree But I think admitting guilt might not be a good move either way. My question was a bad one anyway since it'd be hard

Equal pay forces metric-based assessments which imo is detrimental. I think(?) that's what op what refering to. It's incredibly hard to evaluate how to pay 2 different people, allowing negotiation allows the free market to determi

I don't think that's true because your negotiating power comes from how valuable you are, not only on your "negotiating skills."

What would be a good way? I've never seen a positive response to a reply to such accusations before.

I also disagree with "violent anarchy." When calling something "violent," we usually refer to the whole thing. For example, if there is a murder in chicago, we don't say "violent residents of chicago cause anot

BLM protests also had "violence against an authority" (police). Some also chanted calls for violence (IIRC?). Why aren't those called insurrections?

Facebook clients are not individual, they're ad-centric. Facebook is serving what it believes to be advertisers' interest, which may not align with most people. Plus, the reason we can't legally is because we agree it shouldn

But the odds of getting released are so low it's not really worth imo. I see life in prison more akin to torture than anything else, which makes it worse than death penalty

If we were the censor, we would have the government do it (which represents us). Facebook's opinion of what they perceive to be morally dubious does not represent anyone but facebook themselves.

What's the difference between capital punishment and life imprisonment here? The amount of people that have their case re-analyzed to release them must be low. Plus, after decades in prison, coming out of it likely will make life very

Notwithstanding that it's not really "full self-driving" and at this point should be shut down by the FTC, is it even worth it? 200$/month is a lot of money and you might be better served with uber/taxis/bus fo

It's not one or the other, they can both care about their product identity, but by the same stroke arbitrate morality by doing so. (Product identity takes popular morality as an input).

That argument falls on its face as soon as you check most other illness. What if you're sick because you don't work out, eat like shit, etc? If you start discriminating on what people did/do to prevent illness when treating t

The only reason libel and violent threat are taken seriously is because people go to so much trouble in preventing them. If libel were made legal, people would think harder about the truthfulness of what they read/hear for example.
