I think the conversation about diversity in tech often overlooks a key metric, which is the percentage of tech companies that are founded by and/or employ a majority of minorities. For example, if its accurate to say that over 88% of U

Since IP spoofing could be done by a few malicious hosts, is it really accurate to consider a DoS via ip spoofing 'distributed'? Sure the source IPs may appear to come from all over, but that's just an illusion. When I think

Toptaler here. started at $65 / hour which is pretty middle-of-the road as far as rates go there. rarely takes me more than 2 weeks to find a new job on there. and that includes rejecting jobs I dont think i'd like. the biggest be

Another positive benefit of the Green Book was that it was essentially an early niche business directory. Ironically, some of the greatest economic progress for Black Americans occurred during the oppressive Jim Crow era because Black consu

Exactly. There is an 80/20 bro-science rule that applies to this: where 20% of the guys are having sex with considerably more women than the other 80% of guys. So... if you want more sex, work your way to the 20%; feel for the gradient

It used to be the case that hooking up with strangers was assumed to be the whole point of using Tinder. Nobody was really trying to find a life partner on there. Nowadays, I feel like women are using it for easy validation, or to find a va

I think it would be awesome for people to be able to chill out and not work for a couple of years while they figure out their next steps in life, without going broke and/or racking up debt.

Not to mention using insects as food sources-- grasshoppers, crickets, worms, etc. Excellent sources for protein and super efficient to raise pound-for-pound. I guess the biggest obstacles are the cultural ones.

I remember playing SSBM in a college environment before Youtube. It was interesting to see how the discovery and exploitation of certain moves and abilities on campus over time shifted who people would use. One day somebody discovers the &q

Wow, so many insightful comments here. I'm a black engineer and can relate to a lot of what was said in the article. However, I learned early on not to compromise myself to try to fit in. Instead, I knew the importance embracing one&#x

It seems like they are making the shoes a luxury item by restricting the supply while making the designs very unique. It becomes almost like a bespoke or custom-made item because of the rarity. Kanye addressed this practice in some of his i

"one needs to consider the problem from both genders" Exactly. I think Tinder's model is more aligned with how men and women meet IRL. As a guy, my modus operandi is to present myself as a high-valued man to everyone and have

How will they handle someone casually looking up/around? I have a projector and sometimes I accidentally walk infront of it, facing the bulb. The light is unpleasant when shone directly into the eyes.

Don't they have to download it to everybody's library for U2 to get the credit for a digital download/purchase? This looks similar to the way Jay-Z sold a million+ of Magna Carta Holy Grail a year ago. Get a deal with a smart

It looks like only a small number of officers will have them for the pilot program. But even if widely adopted, I feel like this wont help stop police abuse due to the Blue Code of Silence. Besides, cameras on squad cars don't prevent

The biggest problem I've had with Chromecast was using it in a hotel that had wifi login pages. The device is ideal for hotels since you usually get a nice HD TV in the room. But half the time I can't stream from Chromecast becaus

As mentioned in some other comments, the post focuses more on gender than ethnicity. As a 31 year old African American male in tech, some of the challenges for black males and females that I've witnessed range from cultural mismatches

The IUD may be effective for an individual woman because it will be in place for 100% of her sexual partners. The IUD isn't ideal for an individual man because there's no guarantee that 100% of his sexual partners have it installe

Another issue this creates is the "fight fire with fire" paradigm. Or, in this case, using favoritism to combat favoritism. For example, I know I'm much more likely to get favoritism from people who share my ethnic background partly because
