    I know this is going to be a really unpopular take. I tend to be more libertarian on this. I think the government and tech should get out of the business of prioritizing and promot…

    To me this makes far more sense than a indiscriminate defunding. It’s what I’ve been advocating for. Defunding the police by itself doesn’t solve the problem. Firing crooked cops d…

    I think this is a great point. We could be opening pandora's box here from a number of perspectives including the security aspect of things. This issue of app stores is not as cut …

    I quite like this study on de-escalation online. I myself have learned to not care about whether or not people forgave me for being wrong or instead just assume they forgave me for…

    As a POC, it bothers me that someone from the "corporate(or educated) class" of POCs always coming in to criticize those POC who have a legitimate concern about some injustice they…

    So basically ML is completely useless for certain applications at this point in time? Is that what I am to take away from this?

    I guess I just want the list in the order that it was posted in and without political ads.

    My main gripe about FICO is that they are not transparent about the methodology and the ways in which you could appeal a decision are murky at best and are difficult and take month…

    This is one of the few things I disagree with her on. With that said she is my favorite candidate thus far.

    I know I'll get downvoted but most of the time in my experience the people aren't actually lazy or underperforming. It's just that their manager doesn't like them. I'm going by wha…

    How does one determine who's lazy and under performing and not? There is not a good qualitative way to evaluate this. Most of the time it just boils down to do you like the person …

    Why are you conflating what Apple is doing with tax treatments and loop holes (that every business tries to take advantage of in one form or another) with a message about taking re…

    If you trusted the company enough to give them your email address directly, I'm sure you would've done that. This is a great move. I get so much spam and I'd like to be able to not…

    Why am I being downvoted simply for being happy about this update and that it brings down the learning curve for other engineers?

    Thank you so much for this. I was learning iOS again for the fourth time. This time is different. I learned about programmatic UI from Brian LBTA guy which has been so much easier …

    Our iOS engineer at work doesn't even own an iPhone. I just thought I would point that out.

    Apple is not preventing you from buying iOS apps from anyone but Apple. Spotify and other companies are preventing people from buying directly from iOS apps by not offering the opt…

    I guess Im just an outlier as I love the butterfly keyboard. It is certainly my favorite thing about the new macs. I still have my 2016 Mac and it is in prime condition. I am a lig…

    Top performers are already working for far less than the value they create allegedly. Usually, there are a whole host of people working on a project. Right now you have fake writin…

    That's interesting. I didn't know this but I think this model should be brought back for most cases I think safe guards can be put into place to guard against "unfair equity strate…

    I would argue that most musicians should be salaried employees making 80-150k. The label would then handle everything else. The musicians only need to focus on creation and perform…
