"She was 35, had been with the company for four years, and was told without explanation by her 28-year-old manager" What's the fuzz about the ages? Age discrimination by NYT author?

"There is no mention at all of use of Mossack Fonseca by massive western corporations or western billionaires – the main customers." Such as strong claim ('main customers') would be nice to be substantiated. Also the aut

It is funny how in your head, one image of a company is replace by another over time. It does not happen instantly, but with more and more actions by the company (open source .NET, Ubuntu on Windows,...) the image changes over time. I found

Something not so obvious for beginners: Java/Scala does not use all the available memory. If you get out of memory problems with the 10gb data set and you have much more RAM available, you need to tell Java/Scala to increase the H

As is sometimes the case, people start with the wrong abstraction (thread pool) and then optimize it. Java/Scala streams look like they would solve most of the problems in the post on their own. e.g. Java streams http://rada

Yes, HN is an intolerant place. Have an opinion and you're downvoted. I have some sock puppets because of this and don't care for any downvote.

This is always the problem when you're hype driven. I'm sure the decision to use Node was also hype driven. And they will rewrite again with the new hype, right until they are bankrupt because they didn't invest enough in new

When you switch from Node to Go, two languages that are totally different in style, library support, performance, compile/web turnaround, client/server reusability, I always wonder why you chose Node in this case in the first plac

Some want to play with new cameras, show that they have them, post to forums but don't have the money. Others order 5 cameras and lenses, select one, and send 4 back to Amazon.

No Yahoo is way beyond that. Sure Jobs is one way to turn a company around, sadly the supply of Jobs is limited. But there have been many successful turnarounds of - e.g. traditional - companies, which got profitable and growing again in th

I had no faith at all in Mayer. Not because she isn't a good product manager. Mainly because for a turnaround situation I would hire someone who was there before with a successful turnaround under h-- belt. Not someone without any turn

I had the same impression from alloy's response. I've basically read it as "hi ho we will not change anything". And it had this passive agressive ring to it, with the hand clapping and the hurray in the beginning and the
