The same reason it's "ask" and not "request"

>It's all very toxic and cynical

You're commenting on a blog post by a B2B SaaS company that sells AI engineer stack ranking with a cute ball of yarn mascot and you're wondering why they're cynical?

"Sorry To Bother You" wasn't supposed to be an instruction manual

Is there a specific listing for Dashboard Engineer?

> do you know where I can buy them

Good luck

Impossible. They're perfectionists.

> I think the development of Python and Jupyter and other less known things like Vega are much more interesting.

In that case you may be interested in Dash (dash.plot.ly). It’s a free and open source library that you can use to create dashboards online with Python only.

Wow, people really do just read headlines nowadays...

I use the aptly-named "innocuous Chrome extension"

I saw one person who claims to have cancelled their subscription. The rest of the embedded tweets are either threatening to cancel or justifying "why they cancelled" (before the op-ed). Makes you wonder who these furiously cancelling people are and whether Business Insider bothered to reach them for comment.

They've changed their business model in the last 7-8 years to be online friendly and it's been largely a success. Might have something to do with it, might not. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12/13/business/media/13atlantic.... If you're looking for the old Atlantic, a lot of their archived material is right alongside current stuff, in "Also see...". For example, "Sex and the College Girl" (1957) was recommended after I read Kate Bolick's famous "All the Single Ladies" piece (2011). Kind of interesting to have that juxtaposition.

What NYT piece are you referring to?

I'm not sure they are. I certainly didn't read it as a puff piece. After enumerating all of Uber's problems, I think the "he had lived to fight another day" conclusion is supposed to be a little wry.

It's gotten a lot of media attention and is an interesting (if not entirely fair) barometer of unicorn startup culture and industry.

I like Isso as an open source, self-hosted alternative to Disqus https://posativ.org/isso/

As far as I know it's not like the proofs caused a wave of suicides, but mathematicians studying this topic often became mentally unstable, including Godel (who starved himself in a sanatorium) and others like Georg Cantor.

I'm curious where you studied; I also took a semester course on "logic and computability" where the main text we read was 'Godel, Escher, Bach'

A coordinated attack? You think it's surprising that this story is generating interest considering what Fowler alleges?
