In a way it is this admission. Interviewing is a very difficult process to get right. > Why would you test a large number of candidates in the first place? How else do you do it for a company of the size of Google or Amazon?

This used to be a pretty standard discussion a few years back when people still were being hired. I never saw any better way to systematically and somewhat fairly test a large number of candidates, so would you kindly elaborate on that stat

What I could see is that the social disruption already started by social media is only going to accelerate due to AI. Misinformation is now more convincing and easier to produce than ever before. That could lead to a catastrophe down the li

Well the OP was being vague and I wanted to clarify what they meant. Blaming woke is one of my pet peeves, since it's one of the most intellectually lazy things you can do.

Where was Tao unhappy? I thought he was sort of anticipating this.

I get the feeling you want to blame "woke" ideologies for this decline. Please correct me if I'm wrong. In my opinion we just have it too easy nowadays. Too much entertainment, screens and not enough challenges to keep kids t

We don't need carbon tax, look at this one plant in a developed country where we sort of do something about the problem!

I really enjoy the "federated platforms are too difficult to use" voices on HN. Quite the hackers these guys!

Hey at least I'm not the one in this discussion who could be seen as a negrophobic man, and as per your book recommendation, a repressed homosexual. It's ok to live and be free, my friend.

I feel like the lesson in many stories like this is to be kind of indifferent, not ask stupid questions, and to not answer stupid questions.

From wikipedia: > Black Skin, White Masks has been criticized as sexist and homophobic.[6] Among other statements, the book contains the remarks, "Just as there are faces that just ask to be slapped, couldn't we speak of women

It's wrong because you're labeling the whole ethnic group. But since you believe in "uncomfortable truths", I'm sure youre willing to start calling the Epstein pedophile ring white rapist pedophiles? Damn those whit

Racism, misogyny, xenophobia etc. indeed are radically different values from most of the "coastal elites" views.

It's also made in the time of W. Bush, when everything was still only a little bit stupid in relative terms.

Comparing to other bubbles in the past, this one could still have something like 2 years left. Patrick Boyle has a video on the topic, in which he's also very careful to point out he could easily be wrong.

Did you see the "these days" part in my comment? Edit: nevermind that even, leaded gas was banned in Europe in 2000, and while I was a child in the 90s, it did not affect me or anyone I know negatively (that we know of), so not su

So keep the ramp then. Now your business is full of rats and even the disabled don't want to shop there. What do you do now? Edit: The downvotes have spoken! This view is simply wrong with no justification!
