  1. They want the best engineers, they could not care less about diversity. Seriously, kick out half the top engineers to implant unknowns. Right, I can see that working (sarc)

  4. If Google could, as alleged pay women less for the same role, then they would only employ women.

  5. It's less about the workers wanting to be treated as employees, and more about the government saying to Uber, if you treat your workers like employees, then they are employees. Currently Uber gets to pay them employee wages, without any of the benefits of being an employee, such as a notice period. Why would they require this? Well, if Uber wants, they can jetison their employees at a moments notice, which would then leave thousands of unemployed ppl in the UK. Who then deals with supporting these ppl? The UK gov. So, they are simply taking out "insurance" by requiring that Uber make their employees, and look after them as real employees and not contractors.

  10.  @LukeT-  I am not making any claims, I am just saying it does not surprise me what has happened given Uber is creating a systemic risk that they could just walk away from. Lots of ppl have been lulled into a false sense of security.

  11. Complication is the playground of Charlatans.

  12. 10.51 23% of the workforce identify as female, because 23% of the workforce are female.

  13. No wonder the UK is protesting Trump, they have done no research and are led to believe he is an actual dictator, meanwhile, a real dictator (...who oppresses his subjects and wears all the dictator clobber) visits the UK with no issue whatsoever.

  14. Apple could buy Tesla at a premium, still pay out dividend and not even move the needle.

  15.  @LukeT-  I don't know, my point is, really, employment law is very complicated and is designed with three things in mind: Economic stability, employee welfare, and income tax. By treated employees as contractors, even though they work as if they are employees, then Uber creates an unpredictable point of failure in the system.

  16. What on Earth is a micro aggression???

  17. Insiders ???--- You mean ppl who founded the company???

  18. "We should have zero tolerance for a workplace that makes anyone feel uncomfortable." ------Is it a wonder Americans have a reputation for not getting irony? The idea of imposing a zero tolerance ideology makes half the work force feel uncomfortable.

  19. When ppl call for diversity, what they generally mean is that they want a team of minorities all thinking alike taking aim at the "normal" and "majority" to "show them" or "prove" something.

  22. Regarding Theranos, whenever I hear "the ends justify the means" - It always makes me shiver. I do believe she wanted to do good, but then we have many historic figures, tyrants who framed themselves as good, wanted the world to be better, normally seeking an unattainable utopia at the expense of "useful idiots" and guinea pigs along the way. How many people have to die to bring about their utopia?

  23. I know, everyone frames themselves as the good. Buys their own bullsh*t, believes they are right, and end up way down the rabbit hole they created for themselves. Human nature.

  24. It is remarkable that Russia, with an economy less than the size of Facebook, controls America through Facebook Ads. Remarkable.

  25. FB analyst talks about losing 100B in shareholders value. Assume she was talking about market cap. - which is not the same thing as value. The intrinsic value is typically a result of shareholders equity plus projected discounted future cash flows to perpetuity. Only a small percent of FB shares are traded in a given trading day, so if anyone wanted to sell 100B USD of FB shares, they would not be able to at the top of the market, due to thin trading volume. I have to disagree with the other analyst that said hate speech and disinformation is what generates the most engagement on FB.

  32. Understand: If Oracle could pay women less for the same job as men, then they would only employ women. Repeat, they would only employ women.

  35. We are upset memory costs so much - so we put tariff on it.

  36. All the technological primitives are in place for driverless cars and pilotless planes. Now it is trivially (or not so??) a integration, logistical and political issue.

  39. The element missing in the ethical hacking conversation was, incentives, if you get paid more for ethical hacking, then they will do that, if black hat is more profitable - then they will do that. Hackers are only politically motivated when they feel like they are dismissed by society - this drives them to black hat antics. If we hold hackers higher, they turn white. They are human too.

  40. If we are all equal, why do we need enforced diversity? Where does enforced diversity end? Do we need a man and a women in every role? What TF?

  41. Why do we need board diversity? What about construction workers? We need one women for every man on a building site? No, just boards. Ok.

  48. How on earth are Facebook supposed to police the entire platform? Jumping to every users demand. Each user would need their own Facebook employee to take care of their feelings.
