With interviewing I think it's a bit different. At least in my mind it is. As someone who has interviewed people over the years, I don't give feedback because of the way nearly all human beings operate. Specifically, if I were

Paying to send emails? I assume you mean something like Twilio? For a company providing this type of service, I would imagine they would have written the core code themselves and email is pretty basic/simple to send (stuff like texti

I assume this idea behind this is to expedite the login and checkout process? If so, I don't see how it would actually be faster or easier. It's simple and easy for me to just grab the password from my password manager. I absol

In the original cloudflare posting, they said this - "As we have explained previously, patent trolls benefit from a problematic incentive structure that allows them to take vague or abstract patents that they have no intention of deve

True, but that general fund/account is routinely raided by congress periodically to pay for things so it being separated is purely for show and is totally meaningless since they take money from it from time to time.

Not sure if this answers your question, but I heard someone talking about inequality following Price's law, which is also what all sorts of creative and scalable endeavors seem to follow.

It's even more shocking than you may have realized. Not sure if you caught it because you may have been too surprised or just read quickly, but that was the 2010 number. The current number is estimated to be a mere 26 people that hol

I would argue not to include SS benefits as savings purely because SS payments are a tax levied upon the rest of society rather than any sort of fund, trust, etc. that actually has money allotted to someone. It's basically just an IOU

I wonder what was contained in that cease and desist? How could he have been doing anything that could warrant a civil suit from the company? Sure, he doesn't have a license to be a food seller, but that's a legal issue with the

Also, my own life observations have told me that whenever people have chosen the money there's always some unforeseen attachment. It's never just the money. There's always at least one string attached that they either didn&

As an Amazon seller, I can confirm that they have tracking linked to each seller. Their system does this via their FNSKU (fullfillment network stock keeping unit) and that is unique to each seller for each product. So if I want to sell a

This is so utterly horrifying I can't even put into words my disgust. Although, I probably should have seen it coming. How do the schools and Gaggle have access to all of this info anyway? I assume they have school accounts that are

Am I the only one who finds it strange that "minority groups" is listed as a persona and that it's also associated with compatible traits, behaviors, and values?

I'm not sure they are equivalent. One is being done by someone else perhaps without your knowledge (most people are not tech savvy and won't even understand what Comcast has done). The other is being done by you explicitly to yo

What's even wilder is that the people working for game shows utilized this strategy long before it was a known, publicly verified thing. So someone who wasn't a world famous mathematician figured it out and was confident in their

This isn't whataboutism even though it contains the words "what about". Whataboutism is an attempt to excuse one thing because some other bad actor or event wasn't dealt with properly. It's when you try to discred
