I interviewed for a position last year where the company had a very successful product and was growing, but still small. They wanted to restructure everything (the way they code, teams, management style) to be more like…
I knew this was the next step for these companies. They don't want to lose millions and the easiest thing to do is change the name. At some point, the public will forget.
Because Portugal doesn't have countries like Mexico bordering it that will use the legal drug trade to further fund cartel violence and control over the country. Corruption is already so rampant, they need to fix their…
It makes sense that 'coworkers' went down. Merely asking a girl out in the office is now considered 'harassment'.
Why are their countries of origin so bad that they are willing to illegally come to the US to work? Shouldn't we focus on the root of the problem/fixing this?
It doesn't work for everyone. You need to have almost the same amount of discipline to work from home as you do to start your own company. I've been working from home for the last decade and I wouldn't have it any other…
Heh. This is exactly my point a few weeks ago here on HN. The same thing has happened in California. This will eventually put all of the legal weed shops out of business and we will be back to the black market.
This will never stop until we force their hand. We can 'urge' them all we want, but the Chinese government knows it means next to nothing.
The minimum wage was set only to $4.71/hour in 1999. The reason there was no inflation is because most companies were probably paying somewhere around this wage already. Just because there was no minimum wage set,…
I still disagree. Many issues usually fall into 2 or a few sides (abortion, taxes, gun control, etc), so statistically, it's fairly easy to come up with your own opinion on any one issue and match the mainstream. There…
It's unaffordable because there is a monopoly on Insulin. Why is there a monopoly? Because it takes decades of work and close to a billion dollars to get a new drug through FDA approval. We need to work on bringing…
I almost thought he was going to somehow blame climate change.
What a waste of your life. Why do this only to look at Reddit all day? I would have at least done something productive, learned something new, etc.
This is up to the individual company or shareholders, so there doesn't need to be justification. In the free market, salary is worth whatever the buyer is willing to pay.
A very interesting listen. I'm still not sure if I believe all of his stories.
WW2 was about conquest and they were invaded by the Russians. Being neutral didn't really save them from the attack. When push comes to shove, neutral countries eventually need to pick sides or they will be taken over.
It's pretty sick that so many people care about this now, but didn't care at all when Obama ran a similar campaign in 2008 (I think both are just as bad). I read countless articles lauding him and his techniques as the…
With this logic, should we stop working altogether to prepare for death?
I think the issue with social rules like the above, is that they seem kind of childish and would make me feel like I am in elementary school. In the real world, some people are annoying and you should learn how to cope…
Allowing people to defecate and urinate on the streets with impunity, is not really doing anything.
yes. I am a freelancer and use a resume and code samples to get jobs.
The problem is that real reporting costs money and the bottom fell out of the industry awhile back, so what we now have is lots of people repeating what they saw on Twitter or Facebook and making up the rest..which is…
Who needs Deepfakes? There are images from 2015 circulating Twitter today that claim the current administration is putting kids in cages. It just states it as fact with no proof and thousands of people believe it.
This will not fix the problem with colleges pumping out useless degrees. They got their money up-front, don't have any consequences, and the taxpayers get to foot the bill. Why not fix the root of the problem? This…
All of these cryptocurrency experiments eventually point out the reason centralized banks were invented in the first place. Usually through major thefts and loss of assets.
