Papirola··on SAT to Add ‘Adversity Score’ That Rates Students’ Hardships
I disagree on this as a goal. Some things take generations: my great-grandparents had a good standing back in pre-war Europe. Then the war came and my grandparents escaped to South America - not great. My parents got up to high school level education. I got a B.Sc. Maybe my kid will go farther.

Play with the cards you were dealt.

Papirola··on Ask HN: How to found a company as a single founder?
I'd like to know more about the "not getting banned" part. Reddit communities are notorious for not wanting to be sold to. what's your approach? how do you articulate the post? maybe you could share a link to an actual post as an example?

thanks for the insight!

Papirola··on Lost in Occupation: How Google Maps Is Erasing Palestine
maybe the intent was to say that Poland is a prominent place _for_ Jewish heritage, i.e. a large proportion of the Jewish people lived in Poland for ~1,000 years.

I was saying the exact opposite: that these being meritocratic positions, you cannot get ahead just by belonging to the "right club". Moreover, I am confident there's plenty of palestinean people at Google. Google likes to make money, and whoever can ship the best product gets to work there. I'm willing to bet if they could plug a dolphin to a keyboard and it produced good code, it will be employed at Google as well.

I 100% understand how you could have understood my comment the way you did. Will try to articulate things better in the future.

one thing is to say: Google leadership is there thanks to their talents and accomplishments; many of them happen to be Jewish. other thing is what you said:

> Google leadership, up and down, is filled with people who are of Jewish and Israeli heritage (or are married to them). What did you expect? Find me a Palestinian in any of their leadership team

your version implies that they are at leadership positions _because_ they are Jewish, and furthermore there can't be any palestinean for the same reason.

as for the "blockade" - newsflash: there are people of palestinean heritage living in the US leading very successful lives

9/10 on mental gymnastics.

> Israel kills and injures 100s of Palestinians, Palestinians try to stop angry mob. Somehow Israel is not at fault.

the palestineans actions were so virtuous, yet they found the need to break the reporter's camera, and threaten the italian news agency into not reporting about the lynch.

you may claim that the IDF committed crimes (a discussion for another time) but lynching is at the same level as cannibalism. one thing is mistreating/torturing/executing a POW. another is lynching two people, telling the wife of one of them from his cell phone "we are killing your husband" and then raising your blood drenched hands from the window greeting the cheering crowd below.

I'm sorry but who is "they"? Google? Israel? the palestineans?
