It pisses me off that Amazon doesn't support chromecast, but is it really their responsibility just because google wants them to implement their feature that they do?

I understand the marginal utility argument. That argument assumes there is any moral right to steal from one person and give to another in the first place. I disagree there is. Thi…

No amount of feedback can turn a lemon. Also, its not the role of corporations to play makework and pretend they are contributing. So someone gets fired and takes a job more befitt…

Yeah and its a complete pain in the ass. It's funny these people can't do their jobs but they are masters of using HR departments to shield them from their own incompetence.

Yes it does get annoying hearing them bitch about how the rich aren't paying enough when they contribute nothing though.

People presumably benefit from those directly in old age, should we count how much people spend in groceries too?

Who's being forced to use uber/lyft? Ironic that you believe state intervention into markets as being the "will of the consumer".

How many men take offense to hiring quotas but keep their mouths shut so they don't end up like Damore? You just set up an environment where how someone feels is more important tha…

Every day the "pro-diversity" (in the sense of preferentially hiring practices) don't abstain... they tell you a viewpoint and force you to adopt it even when you disagree. The fac…

Google helps push big government power and their ability to unilaterally interfere in markets. The fact it was used against them is poetic.

Are we really at the point in society if someone asks a coworker out on a date its sexual harassment? I imagine the answer to that is whether she said yes or not. Rule #1 ... be at…

The irony of choosing Dubai because of America's supposed intolerance.. hope you don't want not only women, gays, non-married couples, or all the other BS a muslim state enforces.

By that logic, women can never know if there is sexism because they don't have all that mythical privilege to compare it to. I'd love to see one time ... one time.. there be a focu…

You say this like the left doesn't have its own in the NYT, CNN, ABC, NBC, Huff, Salon, etc... that's much more of an bubbled echo chamber. At least on the right they get bombarded…

"my heart sank a little, knowing that comments like this would soon follow." Is your heart saddened by the disproportionate women vs men in college? Is your heart saddened that men…

Every day its looking more and more like Brexit leave was a good decision.

>Stop that. Stop that shit right now. Why are you trying to shut down debate? It's a good point. I want my tax dollars to be maximized and not used to somehow enforce your idea of …

Maybe so, but when its not worth it to you to pick up off the ground more than what other people make... I think its close enough to not quibble.

Sometimes I think programmers and theologians have a lot in common. Both have dogmas and articles of faith which are backed by internally consistent logic. Now to the comments to h…

The only reason taxi license (and most other licenses in general) exist so that one group of people can monopolize a business without worry of competition. And with that you get sm…

As progressives actively attack the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and totally blown out the 10th.

Is anyone disputing that the purchasing power of one group/person is being increased at the expense of another against their will. This generally meets the accepted definition of s…

I lean towards "tough shit" for all welfare. It's theft pure and simple.
