No one owes you anything in life. Do not buy into the whole victimization of you based on your age. Resist this temptation. The truth is that some "old" people are actually "weird"…

Clearly you have never been a landlord. You realize that a lot of people have NO sense of budget and will be DOA the moment they take possession of a rental? We literally look at t…

Exactly. This affirmative action type law will not have the effect they are publically claiming to attempt to achieve. Bring the data. And I will continue to volunteer my salary in…

Agreed. I just counter this by offering up my Salary during the first few interactions unprompted. Example: Hi Mr. Nice Recruiter/Employer, Thanks for getting in touch. My current …

Yes, thank you. Boys behave differently around girls and will form weaker bonds with each other. Boys grow up to be providers and need to be pushed hard because life is hard on the…

This. Make no mistake here. This has nothing to do with giving "equal opportunity" of activities to all. But a way of suppressing healthy masculine development. The girl scouts wil…

I agree that equal opportunity should be available to both, which is why I support Girl Scouts opening up their membership to boys too.

Disappointing. Another example of women and girls limiting the opportunities for men to build strong positive masculine identities. With the "women's only fitness" to other women's…

I'm going to say something that may not go well with others here and may be repulsive at first. Hear me out though. There are 2 issues here and they are separate. Issue #1. Is it w…

Once I started foraging and hunting for my pay...I started to feel more free and much less likely to take bullshit from anyone (afterall, there is always the next hunt). The core o…

What benefit is it to me to show off to my peers? My peers are not the ones hiring me. By definition it is my superiors hiring me. Seems like an exoensive way to demonstrate to my …

The article points out things that do not happen to me. Lose motivation and find it yourself? That's a truism since motivation is internal. Maybe they meant you lose external micro…

The investigation is still ongoing. It is not clear what the motives were and who was responsible for the attack until the investigation is complete. False flags have happened in t…

How do you, as a doctor, reconcile that there is no test/falsifiable criteria for depression? You may be able to identify "major depression" but how many times is it just a case of…

Has anyone else noticed the odd "coincidence" that depression is associated with -depressive- states such as - sitting around and not exercising - keeping to oneself and not social…

Upward mobility to what? As a software contract worker, the last thing I want is "upward mobility". That means more bullshit and less actualy hands on development. Being a contract…

We talk about scalability in software where you can support 10x the value or transactions easily. Bitcoin et al will easily support 10x the value and transactions and make the "but…

"...That’s why I asked my husband to do it as a gift." What kind of "gift" is "asked" for and when not received it is aired in public and shame the man for not living up to the exp…

Enter Bitcoin. They will not be our masters much longer now that they will lose their monopoly on trust.

What are you after in life? A lifetime of financial security and building great businesses? Or working for someone else / struggling to make ends meet because you thought you could…

Using Typescript with Angular2 + RXJS is like my second wind and a breathe of fresh air. It's like web development is "real" software development now.

I do it on the fly as in when I context switch. Takes about 10 seconds max (copy paste ticket #, type meeting name, etc) With a context switch every 15mins or quicker... probably e…

This makes a lot of sense and explains a lot of the reactions I have berm getting since tracking my concentration meticulously with Toggl. I work as a remote consultant and track e…

This. Absolutely terrifying that Google went from "Never censorship" to "Our users and customers must now enforce pur perspective and censor their users". I am astounded. Like the …

Funny, I remember getting my first pay from summer job in 1999 in CASH, then later by check and then finally by dirext deposit (which I would withdraw in cotton paper form to spend…
