Here's a different idea: Don't judge people's reasons for donating money. I'm happy to accept people's donations, regardless of their reason for giving it, because who am I to judge what they do with their money? Te

The post you're responding to never said this essay deserved criticism. It said it's good people aren't taking it at face value and are being critical of it. They are not the same thing. Being critical of the claim to donat

What point are you making? Are you saying that's a lot or a little? We all read the 99% number. Adding periods between the words puts emphasis on it sure (great job putting in the extra effort to enhance the discussion by the way) but

Three years is all? It takes at least eighteen to raise a child. Shame on you for being proud of your country that doesn't care about children enough to see them raised properly. I have to laugh at you and your country for not valuing

> Move to a state with family leave laws. Just move! Great and completely realistic solution to the problem of what to do about paternity leave within my company when a kid is on the way. Brilliant! I wish I'd thought of that.

>You are trying to rationalize with people who are irrational. In my opinion, this is the most dangerous statement in this thread. Saying the actions of these people is irrational loses any ability to understand why they're doing wh

Oh my god, that is so interesting and different. You must be a really unique and free thinking person to not own a TV or a phone. I bet you have really interesting opinions!

Nope. Did you read the article? They're as effective as other diets over the long run.

> It is more a factor of the group's average wealth rather than the fact that they are foreign. How do you know that for sure? Maybe their higher average wealth is a function of their success as immigrants, not the other way around

Listen, I love me some good ole fashioned hate-filled ignorance just as much as the next American, but whoa nelly. You're making some crazy assumptions about the ethnicity and lifestyles of people based solely on what they look like an

I know what a watt is, and I understand what giga means. I know what a calorie means because I eat food and I have to make decisions about how many calories to consume daily. I know what horsepower means because when I shop for cars, I comp

I love the absurdity of this and arbitrariness. You'll happily drive in a car, one of the most dangerous machines people use regularly. But if it has a computer in it, no siree, that's when things get too deadly to deal with. All

Completely irrelevant, baiting non-sequitur. Your perception of his company's diversity does not change the validity of his point about having a less diverse pool to hire from.

This would have been so much more enjoyable if the text hadn't been comic sans and some stupid meme that my grandmother still says to me wasn't shoehorned in.

I bought a new Air in mid September. I was a little annoyed that documentation seemed out of date, but it took all of five minutes to fix this. No song and dance needed, just a sudo mkdir.

I hear people say this all the time, but I don't remember being told this. I remember being told to go to college and to get a 'good' degree (this was well before STEM was a common term) meaning something not liberal arts and

> I sound like a cynic when I say this, but the root cause of failures like this is a principle fundamental to Evernote: data owned by an application, rather than data accessed by an application. No, you don't sound cynical at all.

I hated group work for the opposite reason: there was always some ass who thought their work and ideas were superior and they didn't let anyone else provide any input. They'd often just re-do the work I did because I didn't d

I couldn't tell if this was real or satire until the last sentence. I mean, it reads like not very subtle satire - like a 14 year old snowflake on tumblr wrote it. But people in the comments there and here are taking it seriously. And
