The Democrat party is aligned and heavily-overlapping with what everyone is calling "the deep state". And the state is the one that prosecuted those individuals. That is why everyone is calling out the alternative treatment of the

It's hard to do this when this person has gone out to prove themselves in the first place. The company has to reciprocate, otherwise they're "double" asking that person. Like with any trust-based system, it should be a s

Honestly, I think the thing you should be asking is: Why didn't you get promoted to senior staff engineer and given leadership over the two stacks, but rather the other person did. If it's a team that needed help, rather they

Isn't this the "real world" equivalent of "Loot Boxes"? Shouldn't it be somehow regulated as gambling even?

It may not be that simple, and there are definitely exemptions to what the OP posted. But the principle of it is what most of corporate taxation is built upon, and it's fundamentally different to how taxation works for individuals. Is

This article is such a cheap and generic anti-corporate jab (Tesla not being unique here at all). Don't get me wrong, I too disagree that expenses can only be written off by corporate entities, but that is just the way it is. I'm

You can tell a lot about Reddit and it's early "architecture" from this video. https://www.infoq.com/presentations/reddit-architecture-evol... That and the Instagram architecture video are such eye-openi

My take is that the "Democrats" are doing their best to "conserve" the direction they were "changing" things towards, and the progress they made in that direction already. Whilst the conservatives are finally g

As someone that is in that cohort I think you are alluding to, I see just as much "anti-right" or "anti" or "anti Trump" type actions when it comes to flagging and downvotes. It's not at all obvious to me

Wow, literally bought more Nvidia shares last week. Just goes to show the stock market is 80% gambling. Me believing in the value of a company is overshadowed by the hype of growth and "future valuation".

I've seen this so much... It's quite disheartening when you are the actual expert or most-experienced person in terms of that "thing", but that's not how office politics works. What's worse is that when the

That's the point at which most sane people would tell the interviewer to "GTFO". If they're hiring for some hyper unique role where they have to deal with some contrived AI in a dark room and they have to do it because s

Not OP. But we all have different motivating factors each with their own level of efficacy. As someone with ADHD (and who knows what else), I've found it very helpful to have some sort of colleague or peer or "boss"-type supe

Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. There's no pleasing Trump haters who find fault in everything he does.

DEI and other such affirmative action concepts are racism.

I too have to push back, because I have been the victim of these laws and profiling, and I'm not an "ignorant" person falling for propaganda as you seem to imply is the only way for anti-DEI sentiments to occur. DEI is ideolo

There is way too much marketing and "evangelism" around PWAs that it's hard to pin down exactly what they are or what they want the term to encompass.

Speaking of jokes, it's always funny to us libertarians when we see government proponents talk about "freedom" being lost to the corporations under a libertarian system of (non) government. The government as it is the world o

We have to. Short of arguing on first-principles, agreeing on them, and then using those principles to evaluate everything done on both sides, this is one of the top mechanisms we have to bring a spotlight to the contradictory mess we have

First-pass guess is that it got "captured" by individuals that wanted to "take an equity and inclusion lens" on cybersecurity... and something something 2020 election interference. Those are the usual suspects when it co

I'd be pulling something out of thin air, but my opinion is that yes so far it has. Facebook and TikTok, and other social media, has served as an amplification mechanism for various things, including rap music. But at this point, we al

Might be? But I've only ever had fruity or flavored sorbets. So maybe I just need to find one that's leaning more on the plain/traditional ice cream flavors like vanilla and chocolate.

"Pretty much everything" does include "can't print some things" which is pretty much: they control what you can and can't print. So technically you are right and they are right too, but this conversation path l

100% agree on this and go further; it rots their brain. We have to have the societal courage and guts to admit that it is conceptually the same as things like drugs/alcohol/smoking. Then again, we lost that battle with misogynisti

Thank you very much for this! I remember eating a very "cheap" icecream as a kid, that was more "ice" or "frozen" than the creamy (expensive) goop I find everywhere these days. I think it's down to a combi

As opposed to the Democrats that refuse to enforce immigration law, or refuse to prosecute all sorts of crime they don't feel like (Except when they have to "Get Trump by all means")? We can play this game all day, so let&#x2
