Let’s not call the anatomy of females “holes.”

If you have a lot of professional experience and high marks on the GMAT you’ll be able to get into a surprising number of MBA programs at prestigious universities. I’m sure networking also helps.

You are right. It was not a good ad. Felt very awkward and forced.

This is really good writing, and it is fascinating context. Do not sell yourself short. Thank you for your contribution to this thread.

Every single word of that is true. It is exactly what should be said.

Would you pay for it to be the default and make up for the lost ad revenue?

Why? These same people who download Fortnkte use desktops and download applications from the internet all the time.

Recently married and thinking about kids soon. One of use would love to stay home. However, the risk of putting all earning power in one person seems too great, and neither of us have a deep interest in paying for childcare. So no kids for now.

This is false. Carousel links do not need to be AMP. To be in the carousel, however, you must be approved by Google News publisher center—AMP not required.

I’ve also had lucrative offers and contracts come by way of LinkedIn.

“There's a reason publishers exist. If they're good, they have enough experience to not be so myopic and tone-deaf.”

That’s a stretch. Publishing has been dominated predominantly by white men for a long time.

It scales just fine. Some of the world’s largest publications run on it.

A lot of people would consider this a positive and obvious outcome. (For the record, I do not.)

It is very true. And a journalist can’t do the job of being a journalist if they have to spend hours in city council meetings in addition to wooing subscribers. This business is tough.

I am thrilled to hear this. If you can't hold on to your employees, pay them more, or give them working conditions like WFH or an easier commute, then you don't deserve to have them!

That said, I sort of hate this headline. These people aren't quitters. They're ambitious, and they want more.

As a full-time remote worker in a primarily office-based environment, Slack has been my main reason for success in working across teams.

This is a disingenuous stance to take. You could hardly be employed, pay rent, buy food, and live a modern life in any sort of comfortable way with this perspective.

Money may not be the end all for people who go into this profession, but it most certainly does matter. See the protests over the past couple of years in areas where teacher pay is low.

Currently we have five people on our team. If our team lead left, we'd be in a big spot of trouble. He has the social cachet and the technical chops to lead a project, while also being a pretty decent motivator when bureaucracy gets tough. Losing that person would be a blow. I imagine it's much the same situation here.

This is a very upsetting response. Yes, the driver could have paid more attention, and yes, he shouldn't have activated Autopilot in an area where he knew Tesla's autopilot was not working correctly.

However, Tesla calling it "Autopilot" should be no longer allowed. It's clear that it is most certainly not that, and customers are not treating this feature in a careful and cautious fashion, and I do believe that's due to Tesla overselling Autopilot's abilities. In addition, its warning systems are obviously not enough to get drivers to take corrective action and ensure their hands are on the wheel. (Why you can take your hands off the wheel at all when engaging autopilot is a mystery to me.)

I’m pretty technical, use a ton of keyboard shortcuts, and I’ve found it incredibly useful. Apps that take advantage of the touch bar have actually showed me new features in the applications I’m using. And I completely agree about this middle ground user who wants a solid computer, is above average technical, but not inclined to dig into the shortcuts of their system.

I’ve been using this service for a few years now. I catch some flak about it from folks (deleting my tweets breaks threads). However, I love that there’s an option that works to do this. I’ve been on Twitter for nearly a decade. A lot of who I am has changed, also meaning my tweets have as well. It’s good to have a fresh start, which is very hard to get on most social media networks.

If individual engineers and executives were made to be legally responsible for potential fatal accidents resulting from technology, progress would grind to a halt.

A lot of folks who may download this app are unlikely to care about any of those questions. They only care that their problem is solved. If they landed on this website during their searches for an app to snooze notifications, the above the fold first paragraph answers that succinctly, promptly followed by a download button.

For those who are disabled, the prevalence of these devices can be life changing.

Medium offers the potential for an audience who will read your work. It’s dead simple to use. The “claps” economy at least offers a glimmer of hope you could be compensated for your work. And, for a lot of folks, it can offer a sense of community. And honestly, hosting your own blog, while cheap, is often an annoyance to maintain.

One part is true: I am relatively young. But I have very rarely met government employees my age. If I had to guess, standard would be 35, but have met plenty of folks who are 50+ working in government (something I don’t see in the startup scene at all). Most of them are likely underpaid; however, to be fair, that’s often made up in health benefits and likely somewhat in retirement benefits. And while I don’t doubt there are lazy government employees, the presumption that they outnumber or even match the private sector in this regard rings as false.

I’ve increasingly found the characterization that most government employees are lazy or inefficient to be remarkably untrue.

I am sure they ran the numbers and found that the likelihood of you returning to an app after three months of not logging into it is incredibly low.

It is a ton of hardwork that demands a wide variety of skills that often do not directly contribute to what you want to be changing. That is not to say it cannot be done, but it can feel like such a grind between selling your vision and constant fundraising.
