I am curious now - at what depths is it considered human origin? Is it because we know how much the sea level has risen in the last x years?

Add to that, let's assume college education is made affordable, will your position still remain the same?

For any hiring, there is required to be a minimum baseline. That has been college education so far, since it yields consistent and repeatable results (less work for hiring managers when they know someone has a 4 year engineering degree, as

Can you substantiate your "value of a college education has approached zero" statement with data please?

By eliminating the requirement, the exact thing you lament about has been legalized. Now they have taken away whatever power we had as citizens to demand changes.

It is rare to gain relevant work experience without having a basic framework for the said work, and consistency to measure that basic framework from a pool of candidates, both which come from college/university education. Equivalency c

University education has a been a "baseline" to determine qualified candidates. It also sorta implies broadened horizons, overall mature thought process, and several other qualities that are desirable the advisors/staffers. W

While I don't have proof, I believe the screaming of NPR about this issue was deliberate (yet again) attempt at painting Musk as the "Evil Overlord" about to destroy the very fabric of fairness, democracy and society. And I n

If NPR is really concerned about getting balanced news to the masses, then their decision to quit twitter, in the lack of an alternative and equivalent platform, seems short-sighted and more like a temper tantrum of a kindergartner, than th

Thanks, and yes, the title caught me off guard until I realized it was fish sauce as opposed to the hot spice (garam masala).

Ah, see that's how we indulge in "planet destroying" activities - by associating that guilt with someone else. :)

I had the same feeling, the review is fantastic!

Very cogent explanation, and an important point that you highlight - factual real-world risk/threat model is far more important than hypothetical "the-world-is-burning" scenarios. Having a correct threat model is the first st

Heck no, as long as human minds are corruptible, unions will decimate the group they are designed to protect.

Profitable today. Moving from docker to github is just kicking the can down the road.

Thanks for the pointer, and I confess I overlooked that part. That said, I hope my faith in the people making this call is not misplaced, though at some level I feel tormented because this does not seem fair. Only time will tell.

It is about legality, not morality. Rescuing depositors by ignoring FDIC limits is violating the law. From the FDIC page: "Depositors should note that federal law expressly limits the amount of insurance the FDIC can pay to depositors

Nobody pays out money for uninsured goods. Making the depositors whole is sending a signal that (a) FDIC insurance limits are worthless and can be ignored, (b) Depositors can continue to be callous in their financial behavior, and (c) Banks

Any rescue beyond the $250K insured limit is basically tempting other banks to take similar risks in the future. It is a bad omen for the American financial machinery. And I sincerely hope I am wrong on this count, and this is just an outli

What prevents the US from having a Voter ID card like India does? A unique ID that is required to vote. That way, you only qualify to vote if you have a Voter ID, and once you turn the age of voting, you must get a Voter ID, like you got yo

Your last statement is insightful. Thank you. The major problem facing the industry is doing agile just because everyone is doing it, not because it is the right tool for the job. No matter how much money or people you throw at it, it'

Does Thunderbird even exist today? I moved away from it a long time ago, the sluggishness was a big turn off and it never improved. When I discovered sylpheed and then claws-mail, it was bye-bye TB. Of course now that I am old, mutt has bec

I don't think "working for a paycheck" necessarily implies one is not trying his/her best. Also the sense of success may not even depend on "success at work". Being successful and trying their best is far more
