> Cross-site scripting (XSS) safe front-end frameworks like React are good because they prevent XSS. XSS is bad because it allows an attacker to take over your active web session and do horrible things
What? React is not "Cross-site scripting safe"
Many security controls do require more than a 2-3 sentence explanation. Trying to condense your response in such a way strips out any sort of nuance such as examples of how react can be susceptible to XSS. Security is a subset of engineering and security decisions often require a trade off. React does protect against some classes of attacks, but also exposes applications to new ones.
> In the US, 14.5% of men are 6ft or taller.
Among CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, 58% are 6ft or taller (4x increase)
3.9% of men are 6’2’’ or taller, among F500 CEOs, 30% are 6’2’’ or taller (7.6x increase)
10% of F500 companies are run by women as of 2023[1]. It's interesting the author assumed all F500 CEOs are men. I would also be interested on the source of height for the F500 CEOs. If it is self-reported it is possible that some of them aren't quite as tall as they say.
> If you increase the capacity of the road system however that's accomplished and more people use it that's a win.
This ignores the cost/benefit of constructing more car infrastructure in heavily urbanized areas and the cost of owning a car for transportation. It ceases to be an economic multiplier when you compare it to cheaper alternatives. You are also painting car infrastructure as some sort of panacea, but it costs households a lot of money (almost 1/5th of their total income[1]) to use a car for transportation.
Not only are cars expensive, but their expense is inversely correlated with income (poor people spend more money on cars). In the USA we spend much more on transportation than in EU countries[2]. From the standpoint of the average American family, car infrastructure is much costlier than the alternatives.
> More lanes helps because now more people are able to get where they want to go!
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but no one wants to get to the 5 or 6 lane highway. They are using the highway to get to smaller 1-2 lane surface roads and parking areas with limited capacity. Eventually you will hit a bottleneck in surface roads or parking that you cannot improve easily or cheaply. The larger highways only serve to get people to the bottlenecks in the system faster.
I believe that is the point the OP was making. If you're ROI on employee X is 3% of the investors' dollar, the investor would simply buy a bond since the ROI on the bond is higher. Because of this discrepancy it no longer makes sense to keep employees or business units with a 3% ROI or an ROI lower than what the expected return on a bond is.
