I don't think it was the key issue. Look at defamation suits in the US, they are notoriously hard to prove defamation. Here are some examples that highlight how hard it is for a plaintiff https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#

Ever since I heard of an elderly man being trampled to death on Black Friday the whole holiday makes me sick. I just don't purchase anything (except utilities I guess) on black friday. I wish traditions like this would die.

That's a terrible plan considering any one of their competitors could not raise their own prices and now be a preferred choice to Uber.

It looks interesting at least, It's hard to tell how gimmicky it will be though. I've felt like a lot of VR experiences I have had felt gimmicky. Some of my best VR experiences have been more in line with games like beat saber rat

Knew it was going to be mturk. I did mturk in college writing product reviews for international companies. It was like 5 dollars for 300 words usually. Mturk seems like a great way to create datasets as well, there are a lot of stories of p

If you're not averse to working for startups there are a lot of opportunities out there. I actually got rejected by gitlab and then got an offer from a startup for more money than I would have gotten at gitlab. There's quite a few

There are A LOT of remote jobs. As someone who just went through a job hunt for remote positions, there was pretty much a constant supply of opportunities. However, most of them are startups. There is definitely a lack of established remote

I think it was implied that I meant heuristics that humans have added themselves. The point of it all is to allow models to make generalizations about things it hasn't seen before. This can be done with a combination of supervised and

Except nobody would train just on parallel lines. They use a wide array of different types of data so the model can make generalizations about things it hasn't seen before. > Machine learning only learns how to categorize things int

Exactly, this is mostly a gimmick. It works in specific situations, but isn't robust and won't stand the test of time.

Seems only shitty if they are recruiting you to place your friend. Otherwise it could be read as, "hey these two developers seem to like each other and have worked together and we need more people". It could feel like a safer bet

I haven't had a reference check in a long time. The last company that asked for them didn't even check them. Any hiring people out there feel that reference checks provide any meaningful insight?

I agree that it is probably impossible to account for a lot of edge cases, but then that means there should be more generalized methods for recourse when people feel that the law hasn't accounted for their situation. It sounds like the

I have luckily never been caught in one of these kakfa-esque bureaucratic traps before, but I don't know how people hold it together when they do get caught in it. It seems like there isn't any thought being put into possible edge

In my experience at work and especially from observing managers it seems like people are afraid to offer this type of advice. They are concerned how people will interpret this type of feedback IMO. I think this is true for any type of criti

If someone commits securities fraud I don't think robinhood is the one who has to take them to court, isn't that handled by third parties that will involve themselves regardless of whether or not robinhood wants them to?
