Thanks for pointing out to me that I did't get something/anything from the word you uttered. Also thank you for pointing it out and not taking up the chance to start voluptuous chatter, now. You must be a man of sparse words.

I find it discriminating of you that you distrust any ones ability to do the job. In Japan there are Japanese people. Who should do the job? They of course, why not, they live there. Why shouldn't "some of them" create enough

> Obviously just putting some underqualified person isn't going to work out and it's a bit tautological to state this. You have nothing to add to my reply so you reply with a tautology and to your own defense you point it out

I don't see why Japanese men shouldn't be up to the job compared to the groups you listed with their obvious downsides: younger - lack of experience female - women to the rescue international - lack exposure to local customs &quot

Tim O'Reilly wrote a seminal paper about the "Web 2.0" in 2005 [1]. I remember reading it and it truly was an influential masterpiece "one of it's kind". Since then cohorts of much less important groups keep

My information is that there is almost no gender pay gap, if you adjust for special factors.

They need to do the tough man's job to earn more. Women that are already "Women in Tech" (e.g. HR in a TechCompany) need to make other women "also" do a tough (real) IT-job! Fake women (in tech) are pushing other wo

They want independence but are not independent (from Spain). Otherwise both is right. "Spain" is the country and "Catalan" the region (within Spain).

It would be good journalistic practice if they would not jump to conclusions too quickly, try to influence the public opinion with (their) assumptions or just try to heat the debate by taking a side too early ("suicide"). We are o

To label/dismiss something that might be true (>0%) a "conspiracy theory" doesn't give it justice. "All conspiracy theories turn out to be true" reverts it to "100% true", then. Where are we now in

No I argue that it created costs [for him and/or others] and put him (and others) at increased risk.

There is a lot of free, cheap and easy things... It is not interesting to point them out. Accomodating and feeding people are among the most expensive things that exist. Refugees are very expensive for societies that take them in! Unfortuna

> while costing you nothing and incurring no personal risk. Read: While costing a lot and putting you at high risk. How can you say otherwise?

The profile-picture is usually on the right, but "gets put below", if there is not enough screen-space.

> "Don't worry, I froze my sperm" You think this is great / that it might be great, but it is not: It is creapy. You'd find out about this at some point and drop it. Women do not work like that.

If my Alexa fails, then I can also just turn the light off with the switch and when flipped back "on" again , then it will be on. Fallback to 'classical mode' works for me.

This is so off topic and/but (currently) still the top comment. Since when would anyone remember how to properly write something, when the representation he has is the phonetics in his head? Nobody thinks "It's disk, because

It is so obvious what he states. It is kind of (obviously) right (and also kind of wrong). Reminds me of Timnit Gebru on (the ethics of) AI. She tackles an obviously important (academic) topic, that you can't dispute how important it i

Make sure you have the "critical path" in focus and have/create a plan to go along it. "Easy things are easy" and you can do them along the way as side projects. It's tempting to do bike shedding. Manage risks

That's true: AirBnB hosts profit from untaxed externalities (similar to "CO2 and pollution from combustion engine cars", which Elon Musk regularly points to): The pollution with AirBnB is "noise" and "restlessn

Marketforces... sometimes it rather seems funny to me, that people lived in "expensive" "downtown" areas, which are predestined for higher returns via businesses such as AirBnB. There is a development behind that (the de

Yes. It doesn't make sense. The prices (rent) adjust so that "if you can't very cleverly combine it with something else", which probably most people can't, then it makes sense to "stay where you are" and p

"It all (already) exists in some way or another"... which makes it all about changes in opportunity, which mostly are uncertain/unclear over something like 10 years (AirBnB was founded in ~2008) and superior/excellent ex
