This is what happens when "coders" barely fumble through JavaScript, can barely hack a front-end together, and then self-promote themselves to "full-stack" developers without havin…

Can't wait for these to be decried as "racist" once the algorithms start denying bail to more Blacks than Whites. The algorithm could be 100% accurate and it would STILL be decried…

Can someone please tell me how this makes Palantir look bad so I can go virtue signal to my coworkers about how much they're failing?

Every time I hear Matrix.org being mentioned, I giggle: https://matrix.org/blog/2019/05/08/post-mortem-and-remediati... Describing their practices as sophomoric may be giving them …
