And what if she's using the relationship to get ahead? What, are we going to pretend that women are powerless, agentless puppets that smart, capable men can use? If the company you're in doesn't prohibit relationships,…
So what? People who work together have sexual relationships, and people who have relationships will have conflict. "People who disagree with me are ignorant." Come on, man. Seriously? You sounds like a college kid on…
..... And what if the accusation isn't credible, and it wouldn't actually hold up in court to fire him because of it?
Rubin deserves to be punished for sexual harassment.... IF, in fact, he sexually harassed, right? A) What in the hell was his partner doing reporting to his place of business that she felt like he had compelled her to…
Edit: Wow. I know this crowd understands that personal experience doesn't transcend epistemology. I know the vast majority of you know that's a terrible argument. This comment section is blatantly political. This is…
Do you understand that if you perceive non-harassment as harassment, you're perceiving it as harassment, so of course you think you're not misperceiving it? Like, you get that reality is sometimes different from your…
That's an example, yes.
> How much more clearly can you out yourself as biased garbage? Are you really surprised, or are you just pretending to be? This is par for the course for every major journalism outfit - from Fox to MSNBC down to NPR…
I have found over and over and over that when I read "memos" or "screeds" or whathaveyou coming from the tech industry I inevitably find that a huge portion of the media is pushing a narrative that is so uniform and so…

Some things don't deserve a response. In that cases it's perfectly acceptable to note this and move on with your life. If you correct every brain-dead thing people tell you on the internet, either never say anything…
I didn't say a word about Kissinger. If you need to pretend someone is arguing something they've never argued so you can disagree with them, you really need to take a step back and ask yourself what the fuck you're…
Appreciate it. It also reveals a weird logic I can't wrap my head around. If you vote, and you think others should vote, you believe that we have significant influence on politics. So if we abandoned our military…

Why? Air superiority is important for power projection. Edit: So I'm getting a comments here that are much lower-quality than I expect from this place. Geopolitics is not like interpersonal relationships. There is…
I've got to say, I think this is parallel to the issue that faaaaaaar too many people are getting bachelor's degrees. Generic sales jobs require them at this point, which is nuts. One should absolutely be able to get a…
You got a few. Satisfied?
Okay. Sorry, I'm used to reddit were everything is a veiled accusation. Yeah, you can train yourself, but everyone does it nonetheless. Everyone does it by default, and I don't think it's reasonable to claim that anyone…
He says it's a problem that can be tackled, it just hasn't been yet. Like you look at a square block, and you need to get it in a square hole, you just haven't gotten to it. It's not the language of someone that isn't…
Mhm. I try to. Why? Are you implying I prefer functional programming? I don't. I don't have a horse in this race.
Motivated reasoning. He prefers imperative programming (or something other than functional programming), so he hears the "criticism" without hearing the solution. I mean, of course he physically hears both, but one is…
Eh, not really. I've learned over the years to avoid providing sources because more often than not the person won't believe you either way and will only use the source as a tangible target for disingenuous attack…
