Stop, you're making a comment that is not unequivocally anti-Facebook, therefore it is incorrect
"I agree with this, but I'd replace soft with relentlessly selfish. Instead of realizing the need to work together to make something better, they're in it for personal gain." Please do not use the phrases "simple…
Airbnb is a service. Bitcoin is a commodity in the same way online poker chips are a commodity
Bbbut... the blockchain?
Elderly people are not soft. Elderly senators caught the tail end of WW2 and the Cold War. Relentlessly selfish refers to young people who think believe mother nature itself entitles them to the newest iPhone, free…
“I believe what really happens in history is this: the old man is always wrong; and the young people are always wrong about what is wrong with him. The practical form it takes is this: that, while the old man may stand…
No but seriously, who else wants a VP of Social Good trophy
TBH it does make sense that the "VP of Social Good" isn't going anywhere
Whoops! Slanted review
Slant article of a topic that has been slaughtered to death by people with more industry knowledge than the author
By both virtue of education and selection process, and given that their education was adequately rigorous, they've likely been working hard at academics for > 10 years, they had the mental faculties to understand…
Great example, rocket science, let’s throw a bunch of 15 year olds who say they want to be a rocket scientist into nasa. What could go wrong? The mit engineering grad has proven for a few more years that he’s less…
Mortgages are not a remotely valid analogy here unless, in the case of Robinhood, you try to compare it with margin accounts, which I think is actually a fair analogy but is not the case here. And even then, the bank…
Same thing after a few magical alchemists in labs started inventing things ~100 years ago, who would've thought?
Earnest Davis from NYU right? Next bit of news we’ll hear is “Yann Lencun starts fist fight with fellow professor”
It’s what the Buddhists were saying all along long! You’ll just need to accept that you don’t have any self. I think Nietzsche was whining this was gonna happen too. Or wait are you seriously suggesting it won’t happen?…
Here’s a really hyperbolic example: https://arxiv.org/pdf/0908.4425.pdf
Do you have any proof that non technical managers are setting the hiring bar and writing the requirements for data science positions at most companies, which is what it seriously sounds like you’re implying. The guy…
Actually no, a lot of PhD's are a bit smarter than you, some PhD's are a lot smarter than you
The average CS student didn't do that great in LA/Calc. Most CS programs don't require vector calc. At an average uni, the vector calc class/linear algebra will be extremely forgiving and you really don't need to…
Big data's also like a big dick. Everyone's running around telling their clients they've got an 8 incher if they buy.
Don't think they're affiliated with the government. Bought a few kilos of crack off the founder a few months ago
I don't know why you're getting downvoted, you're right (although the definition of 'genius' is always up for debate). This is just one of a million opinion articles on the same questions which happens to have a…
If we're going to use invalid analogies, there's also a big difference between "I declare murder to be legal in the home that I own!" and "I think murder should be legalized!"
