Great news. Might finally be able to delete skype! I really have to wonder why it took them so long though.

Now you are just relabeling stuff like communication skills as culture fit. How you used 'diversity' to mean fitting into a culture is beyond me. 'We have a diverse culture, everyone better fit in, or else'!!!

Wait, so all we need to do is have all companies fire their employees and everyone on earth will then find happiness? So simple.

It can also nicely hide ageism, racism, sexism, conservatism, liberalism etc. Basically any reason to not like a person.

'Brown people' hospitals will just raise prices if they know patients have 'white people' funds. So this has the potential to make medical care inaccessible to those not having 'proper connections' to 'whi

So a woman who is not a feminist is actually a feminist. Have fun with your redefinitions. Time for me to step out of this while I still can with my sanity.

Feel free to enlighten us. Men everywhere await with bated breaths.

Marissa Mayer is apparently famous for not being a feminist and for wearing Oscar De La Renta outfits in the midst of nerds. The subject of your defense disagrees with you. Pointless effort.

The dollar numbers being talked about in the article are kind of stunning, for a website that dropped off my radar more than a decade ago. Who are all these people with all that much money and where are they getting it from??

When you tie my compensation to me having provably lousy coworkers, guess what happens.

I'm pretty much at the same point of refusing to do any actual coding on an interview and for pretty much the same reasons. Really like the option of an offline code test followed by discussion of the solutions or a small contract. But

Easy solution to that is to discuss the work/code in the interview.

Looks like a broader version of the 7 Cups of Tea service. Weird how these things come out nearly at the same time.

If that's the only kind of people they hire, where the heck do these kind of interviewers come from?

Curious about the 'official' answer to the counter question. I'd have thought just having something triggered daily to clear out increments older than a day would be enough.

Didn't Google recently roll out what they called conversational search which did the pronoun resolution thing? The example I recall they were able to answer correctly was 'Who's the president of the USA?' And then '

Skilled immigrants don't have much of a voter base, and the current set of US leaders don't seem to be very far sighted. It is also pretty hard to even conceive of a good crisis that can force change. So, yeah, pretty much a waste

So, the users most affected were some of your most active/high traffic ones? Ouch.

This seems to only explain a single faulty recharge, due to the customer using the service with a zero balance and triggering the charge attempt. Why would there be multiple recharge attempts? Was the customer using the service in that peri

Don't startup advisors like Tim Ferris do basically the same thing? Advice/market/time for a small amount of equity? The only difference here seems to be that it's developer skills instead.

RSS articles usually have links to other articles. So, reading on a browser saves a context/app switch if I want to follow a link. Also why I feel youtube/twitter etc is better on the browser.

Please watch this talk (by a woman) on such issues: http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=3dwLzB0kFxI&desktop_uri=%... Tl;dw: feminism and sexism has bad effects on society and it is a very big deal.

Every girl wants to feel 'special' too. But really, there's 3.5 billion of them. You are just going to weed out all the people who are not bullshitting you, and take in all the people who will. And amazingly, you are happy proclaiming this!

I don't spend the whole time on my phone. I don't do social networks and also usually turn off the sound for email notifications as well. But when I do actually need the abilities of the phone, it's there. There's nothing quite like wonderi

Contrastingly, I don't like the fact that I'm next to my computer all day. I'd rather have a smartphone and be out and about the town or in nature. Laptops increasingly feel old-tech and kludgy to me.

It might interest you to know that this is how women generally talk amongst themselves (not to other men). It's a skill and the Woz seems to be great at it. I feel he actually pushed the interviewer into this mode when he upped the emotiona

The video had that as a slide. Even at $500, the point remains that they are not positioning it as a midrange phone.

A mid-range consumer phone that costs $1000? I don't think so.

Amazon doesn't need to distribute an app for the Sony reader touch. Just the books themselves in epub format instead of their current kindle/mobipocket format.
