This is the entire point of DEI. As Kendi says, the only way to undo past racism and become an equal society is a period of short term discrimination against the privileged. Not saying I agree, but a Nobel is basically a career achievement and dei has been around for what, a decade? Would be surprising if it already lead to a Nobel.
This sounds more like an attack on the AWS hardware (Nitro?) . Does Nitro not have RDMA? I'm very curious if someone can discuss this. (Currently studying for AWS Solutions architect exam)
I'm sorry to add this additional fact. I noticed a video was with this URL on that site: https://thetruetruetruth.com/billy-porter-2/ . By curiosity I adjusted the URL to https://thetruetruetruth.com/billy-porter-1/ and well. The links I found on that page were not good. I am actually very sorry as this was not the intended purpose of this post. (do not click on those). I just wanted to reflect back.
This website was a promotion of the John Oliver show of HBO and the episode was watched by millions. I'm curious to know your thoughts on this digital promotion as we reflect back.
God I wish conservatives actually self censored. This thread is hilarious . It's still illegal to hold office as a Communist in most States but yeah totally it's getting hard to be a conservative in this conservative right wing nation
Here's what brought me here. I have a twitter account under my real name which I've never tweeted, and I'm afraid to even like a conservative post by Elon Musk because I feel like someone will find my account and judge me and I won't get my next job because of it. Ridiculous? I know. But I can't be the only one who self censors in today's world.
Hire someone from India to use their phone number to create a Twitter account anonymously. You can find providers on freelancing sites as well as social media chat rooms.
I find the non sequiturish format of your post quite intriguing. Too plus too sums to an integer, but which one? Elon Musk is a good example of becoming more conservative due to great wealth, after all. His ability to read between the lines is what makes him human, after all. He really passed the The Voight-Kampff test from Blade Runner, and I respect his conservative opinions.
Well you did question if I was a cheap and lonely Russian bot. Only way I could think to respond to that is to communicate my motivation for posting. I'm glad you respect Musk's conservative opinions. He did fire quite a few workers and there are quite a few people out there who dislike him though. I don't know maybe I'm overthinking things. I feel like an overturned tortoise baking in the desert sun.
I think you are right. Maybe its best to make an active decision to avoid politics and the emotion trap they try to ensnare you in. I find it difficult when every news channel and every tweet tries to provoke a response from you. It can be very addictive.
I agree with that. I don't talk politics on the job at all, I feel we're all the in the same boat with the same mission to succeed and everyone on the team deserves equal respect.
I'm not saying I want to write a workplace manifesto like James Damore. I just want to be able to express my opinions outside of work and not have that influence hiring decisions.
James Damore is a good example. By expressing an opinion in a somewhat careless way, and by the repetition of its simplification in even more careless ways, he managed to alienate about half the workforce at the company he worked for (and almost everywhere else).
I learned to use the Bernard Meltzer criteria: "Before you speak ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid."
He was actually almost painfully careful about how he expressed that opinion, specifically because he knew that some people would try to misrepresent him. To the extent of continually citing research papers to back up what he said, to constantly caveat everything and so on. In the event, progressives lied about what he said anyway despite his care, knowing full well that their sort of people wouldn't read the actual memo so they could claim anything they liked about it.
He certainly didn't alienate half of all people, that's a wild overestimate, but Google tolerates extremely disruptive behavior from certain types of employees to the extent that it will give in to nearly any demand no matter how unreasonable.
He definitely didn't say anything untrue or even unkind. And he was responding to an explicit request for feedback, so it wasn't unnecessary or unhelpful either. So the Meltzer criteria seems pretty useless there.
After re-reading it[1], I stand by my previous statements. D'Amore's own political biases show through almost everywhere. One example is that the gender differences in psychology overplay the characteristics more often observed in women and contrasts them with fitness for leadership. The differences in the Machiavellianism scale alone would suggest that an organization should prioritize the promotion of women to positions of leadership over men, based on observation of an increased tendency of men to act egotistically rather than morally[2].
