DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
lot of words to say they voted for him because he ran on a white victimhood platform, which is what I said.

I think it's dangerous to be led by your assumptions
DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
Are you saying my argument - that sharing a 10 page personal essay, or whatever to all your coworkers is toxic - is invalid, because in it, he asks not to be prejudged?

That's ludicrous. You don't do things that make potentially thousands of your coworkers uncomfortable internally just because you want to make a point. Human Resources is a thing for a reason.

Put it on medium and be done with it.

Comments in here show that silicon valley still has a lot to reckon with their engineers
DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
Wait. I'm sorry. Are you saying someone who would write and share this can be trusted to control his own bias, because he said he could?
DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
This answer is a dodge.

Why would that matter? Every workplace has an expectation for you to get along with your colleagues.

DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
did you read the document? Did you think it was an appropriate workplace share?
DiNovi··on The Culture Wars Have Come to Silicon Valley
Even if you wrote it on your own time, sharing it with internally with your coworkers is toxic.

No candidate since Nixon ran on an explicitly white victimhood platform and that is why people are being treated like this.

Trump is a liar but also emotionally honest; people knew what they were voting for when they "held their noses" and that's no excuse

This is wrong. He was fired because he can't reliably review his peers if he thinks they are genetically inferior to him.

Also, 10 page manifestos to your company are never good ideas.

has everyone forgotten Jerry McGuire?

>> The farmers displaced by mechanization of the farms in the 20's could go to the cities and man the assembly lines.

Things like this are not necessarily true; some displaced farmers moved into cities, but many did not and have been toiling away since then.

We really whitewash history

Ethereum is up 17x in 4 months. So uh... popped aint the right word

DiNovi··on What Killed Single-Payer in California?
As someone who likes their employer healthcare, I would like to be able to seek other work or build my own business without having to worry about getting injured.
DiNovi··on What Killed Single-Payer in California?
Sure, but what literally killed it is a constitutional provision that non revenue neutral laws need to be introduced by a popular vote.
DiNovi··on Sony plans to make vinyl records again
uncompressed digital definitely does; but since most services dont offer that, its not what most people compare against
DiNovi··on Denied Entry
So sad. I wish half this country hadn't gone mad
DiNovi··on Author of cURL denied entry to the USA
oh, us citizens are very aware of this new isolationism; some of us like me are terrified, but 46% of use seemingly wanted it.
DiNovi··on Americans don’t need more degrees, they need training
These articles for the most part live off of an imagined past. It wasn't hard to train someone to work an assembly line, which used to be all you needed to do.

Skilled employment such as plumbing electrical had and still have apprenticeships...

Also, a political environment that regularly denies people doesn't help!
DiNovi··on Ethereum crashed from $319 to 10c on GDAX after ‘multimillion dollar’ trade
No. there was a market flood so the asking price went down to 10 cents for about 2 seconds.
DiNovi··on Ethereum crashed from $319 to 10c on GDAX after ‘multimillion dollar’ trade
I don't think it was confirmed this was the person, or was it?
DiNovi··on Ethereum crashed from $319 to 10c on GDAX after ‘multimillion dollar’ trade
it's called stop-loss hunting; this just happened on a grand scale.

Theoretically because literally everyone doing it got liquidated it probably won't happen again - people wont set up stop losses and gdax will probably introduce a circuit breaker.

DiNovi··on Ethereum crashed from $319 to 10c on GDAX after ‘multimillion dollar’ trade
It was actually a cascade - the market sell brought it down to 224, but then there was a crush of margin calls and market stop loss orders, which triggered all the way down to 10 cents. Wish I was there to scoop some!

this is a very bad take.

well, he was pressured by his board to sell, so, not the most successful.
