    Except in my opinion I'm not lying. And I never told you how my experiences influenced my hiring policies (they didn't I believed equal opportunity). The best you can claim is that…

    Carlisle I don't know if you're going to read this. Before I met you I truly believed in equal opportunities for both sexes. I also believed that men and women have different advan…

    How does two flags make me not a feminist? My reputation or two flags has nothing to do with whether or not I'm a feminist or not. It doesn't even make sense how I was flagged. I l…

    >Referring to my job change as the company offering me charity is offensive and incorrect (I took a pay cut and worked hard to learn what I need to in order to be effective). It wa…

    Good point. It's an attraction thing. Women who are unattractive do not have these advantages.

    So your saying women have zero advantages over men? That absolutely none exist or has ever existed? Out of all possible advantages (let's say 1000 in total) your saying men hold 10…

    I've mentored guys and girls and I knew one coworker who literally had sex with the interns he "mentored." It can be both sexual and non-sexual and both at the same time. Definitel…

    I did. I responded because imo under normal circumstances nobody would be offered this kind of deal. It doesn't make economical sense for the company. She was given leeway and my g…

    Nothing wrong with being a feminist. Both genders deserve equal treatment. I consider myself to be a feminist.

    How is my statement biased? Men can suffer from unfair treatment as well. I never said anything to discount feminism, I simply stated one case where men are treated less well then …

    I didn't say anything hateful towards women. I think women get this better treatment then men but I didn't say they should turn it down nor did I say they didn't deserve it. I simp…

    When I said you're the guy that can see the bright side of dog shit I was startlingly accurate. You're that one guy people call "excessively positive." Every time your brain sees s…

    Let me clarify. I mean “intelligence from the perspective of modern ML” is just an optimization problem.

    It’s even boring to technical people. It reduces intelligence to a multidimensional optimization problem. Now intelligence just involves all kinds of mechanical ways to fill out th…

    There’s lots of data that is google-able. Children of single parents end up significantly worse off.

    There’s really bad statistics for the children of divorced parents. It may be healthy in your some cases but it’s damaging to the child.

    This doesn’t effect the result. They are comparing people with children. If you didn’t have children or aborted a child it’s the same as not getting married. You simply aren’t part…
