Damore should sue Gizmodo. Big companies like Google and IBM and the military though, they usually have CoC requirements that essentially boil down to don't embarrass them in public.

No not really, this is about the DC riots on Inauguration Day which violated DC peace keeping laws, probably because it's the capitol of America, I'm thinking but read for yourself:

The rioters broke DC law. Nothing scary, nothing shocking, it's a click bait title and nothing more.

TL; DR Woman startup CEO fires women, hires men who work for peanuts because men love coding and thus are higher "energy"; takes advantage of recent controversy to get free advertising on HN. Side note, said woman lacks professionalism and uses profanity in an appeal to the peanuts working, 20twenties'ish men reading the article.

I'm for FOS but I can support Google's decision on this since they also censor known terrorist organizations.

I know we love those Tempura Shrimp from Costco, that's all I know about it.

Ding! That's what we are, we're like outfielders in Baseball. You need great pitchers and catchers buy it's hard to win a game without good outfielders.

"The blockchain is an undeniably ingenious invention – the brainchild of a person or group of people known by the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto."
It isn't even definitively known who invented blockchain, it is behind the pyramid scheme known as bitcoin and no, no way should that ever be used in voting system computers.

I love your analogy! Then there's the Howard Wolowitz's of the world who try to throw a pitch at a ball game using the Mars Rover. Not quite an applied technical person and not quite a pure theorist like Sheldon.

Then you want to hire people are good at interviewing; not necessarily people who are good at their job.

You can think what you want. The people who downvoted me for simply asking why the parent was downvoted can think what they want. The mods can think what they want. It doesn't justify anyone for downvoting the parent's comment which was his view or mine for calling out the unjustified downvoting. This is where the mods should step in, find out who was downvoting both the parent and me; and remove their ability to downvote for a time.

Facebook is a large geek shop; not how the vast majority of enterprises work or can work for that matter.

That seems like a fair comment, I wonder why you're being downvoted?

Why are you being downvoted for expressing an opinion?

It looks like this is Ring UI. It looks like that is React. It also looks like it only runs on NodeJS. So this could be good news if you're willing to use JavaScript (NodeJS) as the server and use or switch to React style, JavaScript dedicated, back-end work. Is this something the Enterprise is willing to do?
