I take it you are a SWE. There's plenty of non-SWE folks at Google FWIW.

I'll second this comment.

20% are a great way to a) pursue your own passion b) try out a new product area c) try out a new type of job

Note that 20% is not a reason to do "nothing". Based on your goals, most people use 20% to build upto something. (a) can lead to a new product, (b) can lead you to gain knowledge of a new domain (c) can help set you up for a different role if you want to switch.

As an engineer who has an MBA from HSW, I'm even more torn.

Provocative title. I guess that's what you were going for :)

I see no evidence why this isnt another also-ran social network.

The article is riddled with typos. Coupled with the exaggerated claims that "All shared photos are public" leads me to believe this was written purely to get internet points.

Advertisers love segmenting and targeting their audience. With Apple's stance on privacy, how effective will these days be?

In other words - I thought it was widely understood that Apple made excellent products and was poor in services that required personalization.

> Someone who can't tolerate the "stress" of being hugged is never going to be able to pull together Toy Story. As someone who worked in Hollywood, you cannot be farther from the truth.

Movies are not produced by aliens. They are done by people like you and I. Similar to people who work at Uber, or Google, or Goldman Sachs. Or at your employer. There isnt a "hollywood" type.

This is an easy trap to fall into. Try to think from the victim's perspective. Countless women had to suffer mental and emotional distress due to Lasseter. Who knows, without such stress, some of these women could have been even bigger than Lasseter himself.

The ends never justify the means.

Neat idea, but that font isn't suitable for any serious webpage. While we're at it, the design could be much better. You/They have the right ideas with quick switches in the form of tabs, but the whole thing could be polished a lot more while retaining the original simplicity.

Unfortunately, that's the definition of ageist.

If you cant see what's wrong, try finishing this sentence in your head "I don't want to be sexist, but women .."
