Elon Is Twitter's Chaos Monkey 4 years ago
Agreed that Elon is making Twitter iterate and ship much faster, but not sure the price he is paying in loss of "tribal knowledge" will be worth it at the other end.

BitClout: Dissecting the Ultimate FOMO Machine 5 years ago
They just released their blockchain explorer code though https://github.com/bitclout/explorer -- I think they will get around making it truly decentralized. Too high profile for it being an exit scam.
Same here, but we share the info we gather through a sheet. Maybe you could do the same?
That's why I think take-home exercises are a much better way to evaluate candidates. Give them the exercise and enough time and you will figure out:
1) How good they are 2) How much they actually care about the job offer -- the more detail and the more passion they put in the exercise, the more into the job they are.
Seems like Apple is trying to appease China in order to be able to keep selling to that huge market. Just China using their bullying tactics. Nothing new, but very sad to see, especially for Hong Kong :(
Slack doesn't even know their users race, ethnicity, or country AFAIK, thus they can't discriminate on that basis. I think this is just a badly handled case of abiding by the US embargo law. They seem to be disabling people who created their accounts from embargoed countries, probably checking by IP, which is inexact and bound to yield false positives
Slack doesn't even know someone's race or ethnicity, thus can't discriminate against that. They are just disabling accounts based on the IP they were created from, which was the best they had to go by to abide the sanctions. This is for sure inexact and bound to have false positives though.
It's not about visiting a country, it's about where your Slack account was created. If you created your Slack account from an embargoed country, regardless of your citizenship or ethnicity, they will probably disable it.
They didn't shut down their account because she visited Cuba, but because her account was created _from_ Cuba. It's unfortunate but I guess it's the only way Slack has to "know" where an account is from.
