If someone is so concerned about sources, they can include it in the reply after the parent.
Nobody likes people who complain but won't do anything about it.
If the lack of citation bothers you so much, maybe you should include it yourself. Nobody else gives a shit in case you haven't noticed.
The original comment had no citation yet it received upvotes, contrary to your view of HN. Everyone is intimate with Google and they can follow the instructions in this thread to find the appropriate sources. If you want citation in the format you find in academic papers, that is on you, not the original commentator.
I can't help you any further but there are plenty of comments being posted as we speak that lack citations, you better get on that quick!
Who is this mysterious group known as "We"?
The price may very well exceed the average engineer. However, the value to Google in incentivizing such leaders to drive product development with 100~1000% ROI is that much higher and it's crazy that they have so much cash to do be able to do this.
So if I pay you $100 million to make a product and I have a very high likelihood of flipping it for $10 billion for a 100x return, it makes sense why a market for such talent exists at Google.
If you think about how large Google is and the amount of innovation that the market expects from them along with the pressure from Microsoft, Amazon, Facebook etc, $50~200 million is a premium they will gladly pay because this in turn would put pressure on other competitors.
Lyft simply would not be able to match Google's offer of $100 million. This is how Google and Microsoft wins most of the time. Cash.
Possibly someone downvoted it because they fall under the same establishment or an offspring of that 'Murica generation.
edit: I don't understand the downvotes. This comment contains instructions on how to find the desired source of my original comment which was actually published and publicized in printed media. If you have trouble with Googling, I suggest restarting your computer. Otherwise, trying to deny the track record of systematic racial oppression evident long after the end of racial segregation through downvoting, you are going against history of USA.
That was straight out of Nixon's aide's mouth. Openly admitting that the white conservative establishment sought ways to oppress and commit genocide on "racially inferior" demographic.
It's now Mexicans and Muslims turn. They are the new "Japs". It seems like hatred and segregation is constant driving force at unifying this country.
I'd be extremely careful not to conflate the two because there's no causation explained by simply showing a graph.
Crime is a very complicated human behavior that arises from multitude of socioeconomic reasons: no money, no education, no opportunity, crime happens.
Please read the original paper, it makes a very good case for linking less babies being born into troubled demographics and growing up to commit crimes. There's strong evidence that suggests that babies born into poverty stricken demographics overwhelmingly commit more crimes than babies brought up in safe environment.
The fall of African American birth during the early 80s as a result of crack cocaine epidemic gripping the African American demographic, purposefully and full wittingly sanctioned and distributed by the world's favorite 3 letter agency and the Reagan administration. It's widely known that the war on drugs and marijuana was to crack down on the black community to target their leaders. Don't forget that the State directly played a hand in oppressing Blacks. This is indisputable evidence.
In contrast, the USSR, did not have systematic racism towards blacks. In fact, the oppression of African Americans is well documented in USSR media. Obviously, for their own propaganda reasons, but the USSR at the core imposed socialist ideas of racial equality and the KGB made sure it was followed.
Part of why the study was so controversial was attributing the fall of crime to less African American babies being born. Considering that 1 out of 3 African American male will be in jail (regardless of actual crime or institutional racism), it makes perfect sense to see less babies being born from this demographic caught in a inter-generational poverty cycle under the backdrop of racist and non inclusive white population.
For me personally, the would be criminals never being born makes more sense. If we just have less population being born from the low end of socioeconomic spectrum, there is simply less crimes being committed from this demographic.
Basically, offsprings from poverty or low socio economic statuses tend to grow up without education and exposed to violence and dysfunctional families with parents who are likely uneducated and addicted to substances.
Growing up without fathers, young men adopt gang culture as a surrogate for the lack of positive role models.
It makes perfect sense that in the 90s there were lot less would be criminals (not by choice but genetic, environmental and socioeconomic factors) being born.
The financial burden on divorced men with children is far too skewed in benefiting divorced women in North America. My fear is children being born from this generation of turbulent and unstable familial organization as the middle class slowly erodes and job security disappears due to automation.
a gun by itself doesn't show intent to commit assassinations. only when it's taken by a revolutionary and aimed at the heart of capitalist pigs will the intent be realized.
the gun maker cannot be held responsible for creating a device that intended to kill someone important.
ex. See people using cars or knives or guns as weapons to commit crimes, we don't throw in Toyota or H&K executives in jail. Just because an item was used by someone, the inanimate object by itself do not display intent, intent is something that can only be held in the minds of a person.
I've heard anecdotes from Asian Australians but not really sure how true it is.
but anyways, it made me grateful for being in Canada.
Aegle was once in bed with double action— The eunuch Dindymus and some old geezer. She lay between while they both got her hot.
Neither guy could make a go of it; One lacked equipment, the other was senescent, So Aegle burned without real satisfaction.
What could she do? She fell down on her knees And prayed to Venus for herself and them: “Make Grandpa young, make Dindymus a man!”

Amusing to see the blonde vs brunette debate even back in the day.
Overall, the sense that I get from this grafitti is that people back then aren't that much different than us. They too believed they had invented sex very much like our generation and every other generation that came before it. To be honest, it seemed like they had a much better time.
I can see that south korea can experience a huge boost in their labor force that's currently filled by foreigners.
On the other hand, feeding, educating, housing, employing North Koreans to integrate into South Korea is going to be pretty hard.
China is also unlikely to allow US bases so close to the Yalu river.
When I factor in all these things, I believe that Korea will go through a transitionary state where two systems in one country emerge.
All in all, it could be that the unification collapses due to the structural pressure it places on South Korea and it's citizens to oppose it-Nobody in a capitalistic society is willing to trade away their good life.
Whatever happens, I only wish North Koreans live a free life, whether it's under South Korea's control or not.
Because North Korean collapse could mean a significant economic burden as East Germany's collapse was to West....but they've only had couple decades apart, North Korea is like dealing with Chosun dynasty.
I recall during the dot com bubble people justified a six digit figure for knowing HTML.
Looking at your website, there's nothing that suggest anything out of he ordinary.
Yet, you've reached a lot of audience through sheer luck.
What year did the share happen and how long did it take?
Note that this is different from not having product/market because of lack of demand. which sums up SV startups.
It's one thing to rip people off, it's a whole another to build an entire company around a non existent product. The latter takes some Talented Mr. Ripley level of Machiavellianism ( or/and being born to a rich white connected sugar daddy).
