We've already seen ALL of those comments right here, so you can't say it doesn't happen.
Which comment are you talking about, specifically? Which comment that's not obviously meant to be a joke expresses these sentiments. I'd particularly like to see where someone expresses the feeling any women who's old enough to be their mother should treat them like a child.
Young men all over the industry are constantly being excused for everything under the sun, up to and including the criminal offense of attempted rape because "they lack people skills"...
So I should hire old women without people skills because people in other companies hired young men without people skills who later turned out to be a problem.
It's an unfortunate situation for those with the rare conditions; there's a lot more potential profit in finding a way to genetically prevent pain for billions of people than it is to cure the handful with the condition.
Oh? How are these people harmed by the development of drugs for other people?
No, I never considered that. I give technical interviews. All the BS "what do you think your strengths are" questions get asked by HR in a separate interview. I'm asking things like "Can you explain what we mean by '3rd normal form' with respect to a relational database?" If that's the kind of question that makes someone decide to sabotage an interview they're probably never going to find a job.
And it still wouldn't explain the people who don't bathe.
I've interviewed people who looked good on paper but were completely devoid of people skills in the interview. I've interviewed people who clearly hadn't bathed in quite some time. I've interviewed people who were so verbally aggressive they'd be a constant source of problems. Over the years what's amazed me is the number of people who can't at least fake "normal team player kind of person" in an interview. I suppose that's the point of interviews.
It's not a big percentage of the total, but that money could have been spent somewhere else. $45m is enough to buy a brand new F-16, depending on exactly what you buy.
Nobody cares if you "discuss" social issues. It's the use of the government (or the mob) to curtail other peoples' freedom of association that gets you the appellation.
The question is, is it more ethical to preserve unencumbered freedom of expression on your site or to prevent a radical few from using your platform to harm others?
Harm? What harm do you experience when someone says something you don't like on a subreddit nobody is forcing you to visit?
For Varoufakis the point of an additional loan would have been to bridge Greece while the reforms took effect, noting that they have already achieved a primary surplus.
We've been down this road a few times already. The Greek government promises this time, honest, they'll get right to that reforming stuff. But they can't, because Greek voters won't tolerate substantive reform.
One resource that will always be in short supply is land. I would love to own a mountain and enough land around it that I can't see my neighbors. The population is going to have to be quite a bit lower for everyone to have that option.
It's not about principle. It's about power. For an SJW, to take offense is to give yourself the power to close down the speech of others. That's why they take offense at everything.
That's the part I think is weird. Not only did they have no plan in place if the employee in question suddenly quit or became unable to work, but when they decided to cut her loose they did so before coming up with such a plan. That just seems dumb.
This. I've played several MMOs now, and I find WoW dreadfully boring compared to EVE. WoW has a lot of players because it's simple, but that simplicity turns it into a grind.
Yep. Even if your concern is the survival of the species you'd be better off building a deep bunker on the Earth than trying to start a colony on Mars or Venus.

This is just flat out bullshit.

Seems legit to me. You're a genius.

Why is it a "problem" when tech firms hire from top universities?

Then people will go somewhere else.

You don't die of benign growths in the liver.

Seems to be heading that direction.
The term is "straw man".

I guess I should qualify and say "Too easy to beat the Europeans".
"Harbingers of Failure" is sure a lot of letters to say "dork".
Well, yes, of course. The whole thing reminds one of some kind of WWE event.
On the other hand, if it becomes a regular thing with sponsors and leagues and what not it may push the field forward a bit.
Maybe that's why we think soccer is a game for little girls. It's too easy.
There's no way you would pick someone like Sue Happy Pao to be the fall guy.
