Researchers have nothing better to do than explore the harmless neuroses of the middle class?

The process of learning to program is more vocational than lecture hall. Most colleges and their deans don't get it.

Amazing! I believe everybody has a strength, it's just not every strength is a celebrated achievement. I could've been a nationally ranked hopscotch player at 9, but alas...

Yep and people are surprised when violence suddenly erupts against the police.

Just like vinyl LPs have their fans, this is just another retro lifestyle choice

How rampant is nootropic use in Silicon Valley?

Good post mortem, ironically most startups won't listen because startups by their very nature have "blinders" on.

This looks like a feature that LnkedIn could incorporate if it ends up being useful. From the candidate's standpoint it's a lot of duplicative work because much of this info is already on LI.

Also, for the tech industry, isn't it always assumed that a tech candidate is open to a better job whether or not it's obvious on the LI account. So I don't know how useful it is to keep your own employer from looking. If your employer believes that at any given time 80% of its workforce is vulnerable to turn over I think it would probably treat it's workforce better. Would Zynga have treated it's programmers better if it knew that many of them were ready to bolt?

The biggest obstacle is the assumption that most beggars use cash for cigarettes, liquor and drugs. Until this assumption is overcome, there will be reluctance to give cash.

Yes! Totally cool if 75% of all rebel pilots were Asian females due genetic predilection for aerial combat superiority!!

Great info thanks!

But is $40k on offer in these more affordable parts?

LOL the irony

Good times for startups.
