That should be fixed first, but it's much more complicated. Even if you could fix all systematic issues the poor would still have less access because of poverty, discrimination, and many other forces.

That would only be fairer if everyone has the same level of access to education up to that point. I don't know anything about the Australian school systems, but I know for sure that is not the case in the U.S.

The two examples you mention is in regard to bigotry. If they have those views then those views are going to drive their actions. There is no such thing as being a bigot in private.

In context of the comment I was initially replying, regarding how Asians are considered a counter example, I think positive is the correct term. My initial post was strictly to point out the original posters bias towards Asians. So my point

You are correct positive may not be the best term, but I think we are in agreement otherwise

Bias goes both ways and biases effecting social status for Asians are typically positive. For example, if hiring for a Mathematician from three resumes, 1 White, 1 Black, and 1 Asian and being unaware of actual skill, the Asian would likely

While it's true that there were laws allowing minorities to vote in the late 1800's at the federal level, up until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 there was still institutionalized discrimination that made it difficult to actually d

A little late, but my post is in comparison to Cleveland, OH where for the same prices you could get something much nicer. I would also have many more living options available in Cleveland proper compared to the few areas in Detroit proper

This can already be seen, housing is going to be a huge problem without some major investment in that area as well. Nowhere beside Downtown, and maybe one other neighborhood, is worth living in right now, and the rent in those areas are sta

That site looks like something from the 90's. Has design regressed that much that the 90's look is cool again?

Maybe they meant $79/year. If that is the case I would think they are associating it with a prime account. They already have an app store with a submission and review system in place. I don't think it would be too far fetched for

I haven't really been keeping up, so I don't know if the criticism is valid or not. However, I think the topic of sexism, and discrimination in general, is something that needs to be talked about more openly. Hopefully something g

While I don't agree with the science behind these test, I would assume that INTJ's would have similar interest and likely gather at a place such as Hacker News.

I agree, I think the problem is more so with developers that don't have a proper understanding and with what comes out of the box. Microsoft provides a lot of security features that are backed into asp.net that are pretty trivial to en

I think this line of thought is a big problem in the development community. There is a clear separation between code quality and shipping a successful products. Ideally you would want both if possible, but a product is not just code.

Jobs didn't have much business experience when they started the company and there was a friendship there. I have tried going a similar route as this when starting a company and it didn't work.
