Facebook is NOT blocking the Post from posting. They are limiting sharing. This headline is a good example of way it may have been the right move. Misinformation spreads fast.

How does one ensure "stability" without getting involved in politics?

There are many reasons someone may wish to remain anonymous on the internet. Sorry if my anonymity triggers you. I didn't say you were against diversity, I said you created an inverse relationship between diversity and harmony. You cou

You stated you're "not trying to bring race/culture into it" then explicitly created an inverse relationship between diversity and harmony. Perhaps a country as diverse as america is a poor choice for you.

So you're saying that homeschooled kids have the same variance in outcomes as kids that go to school?

People say having internal debate is a disadvantage, but all the companies that are famous for having it make more money than everyone else.

SV companies sell candidates on changing the world and disrupting the status quo. They literally target and recruit the type of people who would want to discuss politics at work.

I'm really struggling to see how younger Americans joining different social networks, which all have the same effects, is a signal that they've learned their lesson? It's interesting that this is about big data generally and

If you think there are a lot of bad managers now wait until they're explicitly paid less and aren't accountable for their team's impact (what happens when you shift all accountability of technical strategy to TL).

In my experience the 16" MBP is just bad. This is my first Apple laptop and it's pretty, but that's about it. Despite having a serious horsepower (on paper) the fan runs constantly while doing basic tasks, I get tons of beach

Sounds like you have a persecution complex because your positions aren't well liked. I'd suggest you look at the data around who and what is popular on Facebook. It supports none of what you've written. Sometimes it's no

"It's because the people around you suck." Isn't that the core problem with all social media? If people didn't suck we wouldn't be having this discussion about facebook.

Multiple things can be true. 1) It was incredibly stupid for anyone to use suppressing unions as an example. 2) Employers should have control over the content on their internal systems (people get fired for things they say over email/S

How does Duck Duck Go make money? I clicked around their site for a while, but didn't find anything.

I'm really reaching to understand how you could interpret my comment that way. I'm equating judging large swaths of people in the way the parent does as equivalent to society assuming black people "deserve" what they get

All these people who bought iphones for the curated app store talking about how Twitter shouldn't be allowed to curate their product. Perhaps Twitter is big _because_ it curates its product. That's what people want. The threat to

Have you read a newspaper comment section recently? Lots and lots of shouting going on between readers.

The employer deciding what they're willing to pay employees is eminently reasonable. Most of these companies are NOT going remote first, they're just _allowing_ remote work.

Sure. If you're working from home your work site is where you live.

Nah. Pay is, and will continue to be, based on market rate. If they offer you 150k in Georgia and that's near top of market for your skill level, even though if you were in SV you'd make 250k, then you're still being paid wel
