He will have to live off savings and deal with the incredibly limited options a PhD in an in demand field (from a top school) leave him with. Poor guy.

Short term pain for the longer term goal of not having a few conglomerates dominating the tech sector. Worth it.
I'm leaning towards yes on this. The tipping point for me was Google (near monopoly in search used to push a dominant share of the browser market, and a dominant share of mobile) and their ad blocker plans.
Why not? You have to start somewhere.

It's true that the UN is absurdly obsessed with Israel, but that doesn't mean Israel is completely in the right. It's not anti-semitic to criticize Israel.
Oh but they are fixing that by going to Amazon like models where they backload the stock payouts a ton.
You could pay them minimum wage and then withhold some percentage to cover costs. You could take some of the money and put it into an account, so when a person gets out they have a bit of money to get basic necessities…
Don't worry, if you pray hard the free market will take care of you.
haha, no. It becomes really easy for NIMBYs (NUMBYs?) and others to come out in droves.

Having worked at 2 of the biggest I can say that some lesser version of some of those happened sometimes. Uber seems like an extreme case.

If you can't handle using generics sensibly then that's not a language problem, it's a you problem.

This is just another way of saying fuck generics. They really can't see any solvable problems after years of people asking for generics?
> Getting over the "not invented here" mentality allows us to focus on doing things that are novel, or things that are custom or it relegates you to never doing an interesting thing.
That's a ridiculous suggestion. It's blatantly ageist.
Classic "implementation is imperfect so lets do nothing instead". Makes as little sense here as it ever does.
How does the NSA engaging in mass surveillance and hoarding vulnerabilities in major applications improve cyber-security?
They have never revealed sources, what's changed is an insane president who wants to discredit the media because of a combination of ego, incompetence, and criminal behaviour.
And yet he walked away from potentially billions in profits when he got asked some basic questions by the NHTSA.
