Why shouldn't the creation of knowledge and expertise come with a price tag? The question is "is it cheaper to create a system that creates new expertise than it is to hire someone with that expertise?" As long as the…
This gets at one of the core beliefs lots of people seem to have about socialism: that human nature means it will be implemented poorly. It's pretty hard to test that out, though, when one side of the political spectrum…
> neighborhoods or people to try to protect, to the detriment of everyone else wanting to live there Wait, you have a problem with a city government trying to serve the people who actually live in a neighborhood rather…
The creation of a trueRandom function certainly seems to solve this problem more than taking away a useful tool for cases where pseudo-random is good enough.
It is kind of hilarious how often rent-seeking behavior is called out as evil when it comes to software companies, but actual rent-seeking with real estate is seen as virtuous investment.
Detecting wrong answers doesn't tell you anything about how many right answers there might be.
This is the downside of having an AG who has been indicted on criminal charges for thee last 6 years. How much can you trust the guy?
Managers aren't for bookkeeping or commanding; they're for leadership.
Is it productivity, or is the work to mine new "knowledge coins" just harder now that we've done some of the easier work?
Big agree, although I think in this case even the auto-generated stuff being talked about is awful.
Uh, it's pretty clear there's a board level leaker here. This kind of leak is how the board forces action onto the CEO.
Good advice that is applicable towards doomsday cults as well.
What exactly is sane about figuring out how to make 200,000 contractors full-time employees inside of a week? I don't think there's a company in the world that could pull that off. If a company says, "hey, we're a…
Who says it is? I'm questioning whether the taxi drivers actually have any more rights. The parent comment here said that the disruption that caused ridesharing to rapidly grow this mobility segment was because the…
Most traditional taxis are independent contractors as well. It's the ridematching versus dispatch system that is the advantage, not the employment model. It's easy to see all the folks here who don't remember having to…
Wait, you've met multiple billionaires?
Exactly. It's about developer lifetime value, not single customers.
They're not. Most of them are operations.
This is usually coordinated. PR talks to a friendly outlet, gives them the exclusive on the story with the caveat that the timing is released a few minutes after employees have been informed. This lets them get correct…
There's lay-offs and then there's "I got fired this week." Does this document tell the difference? Because those numbers look about right for an industry that does have some involuntary turn-over week to week.
This is missing the point. The goal is "please write your documentation." What solution has the least friction around that for engineers? Right now, it's overwhelmingly Markdown. It's not perfect, and often doesn't…
It wasn't going to be happening anyways. Those types of programs need to come from Congress, and there was zero coalition built to make them actually happen.
In the past, the companies formed from a broken up monopoly are competitors. The company isn't broken up just along business lines.
This is good problem-solving. Why spend tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of dollars building technology to do a complicated task if you can cut that effort in half or more by having somebody where a funny vest?…
Neither of those things are mandated by laws, afaik.
