I used to provide feedback but often got candidates who were argumentative about it rather that accepting that the decision was final. This turned me off on the whole concept.

Perhaps if there is some sort of crash.

One of my favorite experiences was that as an intern I shipped what I thought was a useful tool. When I came back full time a year later it had spread and was pretty popular among a subset of the company!

Using selenium and chrome webdriver under the hood to do so, as well.

I’m curious too! I’m not making the argument, just distilling a little of what I’m sensing from others.

That’s super interesting. I try to emphasize with other belief systems. Can you explain more?

> Perhaps a more reasonable goal would be to hire proportionally within US at rates roughly aligning to CS degrees by demographic.

This doesn’t quite do it because of the systemic reasons that CS grads are not representative of the US population at large. So, the goal should really be to hire proportionally within US roughly aligning to the overall demographics of the US population.

She can just be a bad person, but my sense from scanning the comments is that a bad person artificially propped up by a social framework is worse because in theory it made it easier for the bad person to achieve a position of power where otherwise it’s less likely they would have achieved such a position. At least that’s my take on what people are arguing without diving in too deeply.

Curious about examples the other way from seven years ago and about similar examples fourteen years ago. Sounds like an interesting hypothesis.

I checked into those links, very interesting! Thanks for sharing.

Your link is from Vermont, not Colorado. I don’t think anyone is advocating for the release of wolves into Vermont.

I did a search of regenerative agriculture in Colorado and can only find a single farm that has tried it. Given that it seems tenuous to suggest that wolves will destroy regenerative agriculture in Colorado?

Regenerative Ag seems to be focused on agriculture, as the name implies. The people upset about wolves are ranchers who stand to have their livestock attacked by wolves. I am not seeing the connection between wolves and the destruction of regenerative agriculture.

It’s hard, not impossible. We need enforcement like we enforce endangered rhinos in Kenya from poachers.

Given the consequences of the reintroduction of wolves to the ecosystem, I think literally everyone will be living with the consequences to some extent. Unless by “the consequences” you’re specifically referring to wolves attacking the livestock of billionaire (in many cases) “ranchers,” then maybe not because I’m assuming those billionaires ranching on public land aren’t voting against their pecuniary interests (as billionaires do not seem to do) and thus are not in the 50.4%.

T-Mobile isn’t technically a legal system so this is referring to them fining for illegal content of their own accord as part of the contractual arrangement. It’s not as if they impanel a jury :)
