Maybe non-violent, but innocent? Innocent of what? If they are innocent, then perhaps some statistics on how many innocent people are imprisoned?

Credit score is a private system where your ability to pay for things is assessed so loans are not given to people that don't pay them back. I don't see how that is anything like a government run "social credit" system.

There are a lot of different types of people that require different levels of management. Some may require just a direction to point them in, some may require a lot of hand-holding and close watching. Lazy management decides that everyone i

Where would those tourists stay if they didn't use AirBnB? I can see where the residents may get priced out of a certain area because short term rental drives up the price, but the increase demand and higher prices should stimulate new

Whoever thinks comments are a code smell has probably stumbled into a nest of documented code where the documentation was out of date and didn't refer to the latest code in question, causing intense confusion. Comments can certainly be

I think there is a problem with too many meetings though. I used to have morning and afternoon meetings every day. Certainly made my schedule full but also meant I got less done.

I highly doubt it is deliberately anti small business. However, governments don't actually know what the outcome of their laws will be until they are out in the open and if governments claim to know what the outcome will be, they are l

If I meet you and write down a note about you afterwards, is that your data? I would argue that no, it is my data even though it is about you.

I use a coding test not only to see if someone can write basic code, but also to assess general intelligence and see/hear their problem solving process. A resume definitely doesn't tell you all you need to know and experience does

Governments tend to create places where there is a large amount of money available in a very non-egalitarian fashion. Look at the DC area--all the tax revenues from around the country is pumped there and supports an immense amount of people
