Some days I think I'm smart, then I read stuff like this. I wish there was an EILI5 Plugin for chrome that I could use to tag any paragraph and someone would come along and break i…

Ah! you've hit the nail on the head why the pro gun people are so adamant about not giving an inch to any sort of increased regulations. Most on the pro gun regulation left do not …

Hello HN, I am a fan and practitioner of interval work / the Pomodoro technique. I have used various programs and physical timers that help with this, but I have never seen the two…

I don't have any issue with this process beyond the use of 'majority'...Maybe I'm just skeptical, but I don't see how the majority of any interview could be non-interactive... Now …

It's not entirely clear to me what you mean here: You don't see how meeting a person would remove some of their anonymity? Or when you say anonymous do you just mean we can't know …

I think this supports the statement you are responding too. The million factors impart a diversity of perspective regardless of whether there is diversity of racial heritage. Does …

I think you give up way more with anonymous hiring than you would ever get in return. How do you gauge verbal and non-verbal communication skills? Do they mesh well with the team. …

This seems to be an argument more for interacting with your target market than for diversity. Or are you thinking more like: "Team we just got a new client from Mexico, obviously w…

Think of a professional vehicle driving. Be it race cars, trucks, etc... Sure, maybe in the early days those cars and trucks looked and worked way different from each other but ove…

The API and internal code is still expected to change. He very recently finished a large breaking refactor, so it is not mature. Having said that it is a nice editor with a lot of …

Which is why the interesting part of the comparison would focus on where they differ.

But I think reasons that are directly related to the job are the only things that belong in this list. If your "shields down" moment is caused by some factor that is external to th…

Accounting for it doesn't really add anything. If you have that drive your shields were never really up so trying to prevent the "shields down" moment is simply not possible.

I disagree because this list is meant to be intrinsic to evaluating your current job vs. some other semi-comparable job. Conditions leading to a shields down moment for someone swi…

In fairness, your answer to: Is this project I’m working on fulfilling? should have been no it is not fulfilling enough. It does not fulfill your desire to own your own company.

My 2 cents: Fix the major issues on this article sooner than later. It is a great little post and if all goes well it will have a long tail of visitors or will get picked up again …

Fund Prosemirror if you have ever been frustrated by a WYSIWYG editor. Not because Prosemirror will be frustration free but because more effort in this area is necessary to get the…

Yeah, exactly my point. That statement is laughable to anyone who as been to a University. I'm not even sure if being pushed and/or challenged to become better educated is even a p…

One can say that all university credits are relevant to any job but only in the most general sense. Certainly you wouldn't advocate 8 years of general education before getting into…

I'd argue that most employers don't really care. They want to use degree, university, and sometimes grades as a first-round filter for screening applicants. Do they actually care i…

Degrees and grades are a big part of the problem because they are treated as currency to get a job. Degrees are like the Microsoft points system. I want a job in field XYZ. Well to…

It doesn't do shit for you as a patient. A certainly not any more than trading that 4 yr lib arts degree for 4 more years of medical training. Universities as gatekeepers to actual…

But why wouldn't they want to be pushed and challenged? The only thing universities offer is the chance to learn more and be pushed or challenged. AFAIK they could not possibly be …

I disagree completely. You are confusing students rating professors with the how good the survey is and how the university may or may not react to the results. In an of itself rati…
