They actually just recently released a sequel to Human Resource Machine called "7 Billion Humans". Builds on the gameplay but adds parallelism

> I honestly can't understand why Google hasn't been able to replicate the success of iMessage

It's not because Google is doing a bad job, it's because Apple is doing a _great_ job.

Apple's framing of iOS as a luxury brand is why the "blue vs. green bubbles" type of sentiment has real impact within younger social circles.

None of this analysis accounts for leveling.

If women are disproportionately hired at lower levels, pay equity will still be _very_ off, even if the data says otherwise on the surface-level.

Ex: Woman w/ 4 years experience hired at T3. Man w/ 4 years experience hired at T4. Both are "in range" of their median comp per level, but the man is being paid more for his expertise.

Literally the second sentence: "Its members locate flaws in software, privately report them to the manufacturers, and give them 90 days to resolve the problem before publicly disclosing it."

Privately disclosed to Apple, 90 days later they published. Simple as that.

> My naive reading of this is that Google is saying we need to rethink processors themselves if we want to fix this (and we really do want to fix it). Am I reading it correctly?

That's the gist of it, yeah.

No, but you shouldn't even be able to become a billionaire in the first place. That capital should be reinvested into society, not held by an individual.

IIRC this is pretty much the mission of glitch.com - democratizing web presence and giving the power to create back to regular people.

This makes it no less impressive, IMO
