An entire blog about hypothetical things that could happen while playing Pokémon Go, but didn't. Based on the authors personal 20 minute walk around his neighborhood where nothing significant happened. Started with a paragraph that is completely unrelated... More click bait titles with no substance.
This seems pretty ridiculous, for an enterprise network with 20,000+ end users, where is the incentive to pay $140,000 per month with minimal, if any, increased profit margins using windows 10 over windows 7?
This seems like a really badly done study for multiple reasons. One, as a Hispanic, I would expect there to be a huge jump in numbers of Hispanics being killed in obvious places, Texas, California, Miami, new York. Half of the data is extremely slanted, there is no way that there are even a 10th the amount of anyone else being killed in some of those places (Miami) and yet the numbers are skewed to the point of hilarity towards the other races even in obvious places.
I could care less about politics, what upsets me is that someone gets away Scot free with multiple crimes when we have people getting put away for years for having less pot than you can hold in one hand. Or how about all those people that got put away for 30+ years for the exact same crimes i.e. Chelsea Manning.
I'm going to guess that a good portion of the depressed people reportedly unemployed, would list their reason as "Broke".
Might explain why there are double the numbers of depressed people in the unemployed vs the employed. Not so much a lack of purpose, but a lack of money.
Money might not buy happiness, but its a lot easier to be happy with money than it is without it.
Considering it is an opinion piece from the times, I am going to guess that very little actual research went into this.
Let me see some code that alludes to racism or sexism and not just an analytical algorithm that says yes, this guy that has a long history of being arrested has a good chance of being arrested again.
I highly doubt that biometrics are being used to assess these things when proven data is exponentially more reliable.
This is an intriguing system, on the one hand I imagine this will prepare kids for the business world on an exponential level... on the other, I hope there are safety nets created through policy that regulate fiscal decisions.
I would argue that people with those crazy LED headlights are even worse. Since I often work late, I get the pleasure of being temporarily blinded as a white dwarf passes by at 45mph regularly.
That's all opinion, I'm sure their opinion is just as important to them as yours is to you... I still don't think I would unfriend someone because their opinion differs from mine. Unless it was illegal or harmful to others in a real way... live and let live.
I think it helps that HN has a common factor to bind us together. Professional Techies may be able to disagree in a less flamboyant style in most situations because at the end of the day politics is mainly seen in the light of how it affects the tech industry as a whole.
While there are also some folks that are undoubtedly passionate about their particular political views, they mainly get well thought out replies as to the argument they are presenting for and against... even if some people get a bit passive aggressive with the down voting.
