So you’d be ok with a company led by women that only hired women to prevent men from introducing this culture? I suspect, based on your previous comments, you would not.
"I’m sure the CTO has a perfectly good reason to drop his pants in his office. Perhaps he urgently needed to urinate and his office door was the best place to do it?"
Droping pant is a way to show that, we are all in the game with new tech stack and we not holding anything back, not even our pants. In a startup, we should do whatever it takes to succeed.
Being smart has nothing to do with it. People don't make a rational choice while choosing a partner. I am not even remotely good looking compared to many handsome men around. What works is rather simple, if you can do funny things bravely, you'll get the any girl you want.
Now, i am from Eastern Europe and Ashkenazi Jew. I am naturally not good looking compared to many other handsome men. But I still don't feel ugly and i am able to attract any woman i want.
Many women here threw insult at me but i laughed them off, they are just checking what you are made up of and how difficult it is to agitate you or make you sad, a manchild can't handle this without breaking into tears.
> Firstly, minorities have very tough environment and they don't have education and even time to think about their future
I'll add here that even if they've time and education, they might lack proper nutrition if the government deliberately keeps the watchdogs which regulate food supplies, drugs and environment underesorced. This will reduce their IQ and ability to take a better decision.
The end game is whoever manages to keep people desperate and dumb.
Simply letting bad actors contaminate the food with lead will do this job of keeping everyone dumb and winning election next year by throwing breadcrumbs.
Religions? Do they've all scientifically verified ideas? People still believe in them. Not only that, religion is also given special place in the constitution and law of some countries.
Religion is still going strong. Try to take away anyone's religion based on refutations then tell me that refuting bad idea really works.
Till then many others will try to mix mash bad ideas into new religions.
> If more of those short-term fixes benefit minorities, that still isn’t worse than if they benefit majorities.
If minorities vote for receiving short term benefits then everyone including the minorities are knocked out of the long term benefits.
If you can just win by offering a vehicle like horse cart and keep upgrading it through research and development, adding 1km/hr speed increment every 5 year. Then you'll probably never be able to develop a car because its development requires long term research and development program, even if nothing, atleast a working infrastructure.
I've read somewhere that some part of the North Europeans have a gene which prevents bonding, so it's easier for them to walk out of relationship. I am not able to find it anymore, maybe it's something to do with the Oxytocin receptors.
So why not create a drug with similar effect for others?
What i am writing below might be sexist but it's from experience. Since, i am a man i don't know woman's perspective.
I am not bothered much by the loss of a person in relationship, what bothers me the herculean efforts I put including compromises, blood, sweat and sacrifices which is now lost.
That Ferrari I bought for you, the sea side bungalow i gifted you. All the evenings i arranged for you and the vacations which we spent together, all lost.
A man almost never only brings his body/mind/heart to the relationship, he brings with him the obsession to labor tirelessly for her comfort - destroying yourself to get that bonus which will statisfy her seems perfectly rational then.
The value of those experiences drastically declines for me when I realize the person has separated from me.
It's not very different than a teenager wanting his favourite couples in the movie to be in relationship or marriage in a real life.
Once the relationship ends, i realize that person isn't even as beautiful as i always perceived them. The 7/10 girl looks 10/10 when you love her she gets back to 7/10 when the realationship ends. I wonder if the love is self dilllusion.
For me a relationship is a way to have support in your life.
After a break up, all the support a person has given you is still there. The effect of that person helping you in your life should have lasting inpact on you. It's a strange way to put it but see it as a tool. When you lose a tool nothing that was build with it will crumble. The house will stay up even if the hammer break.
What if they got stuck in some scandal? IPO is also a way to shield the company from action of an evil executive.
If some politician has a beef with a private business, they can potentially cause them enormous loss.
But no politician would like to take some action which might cause public losing money because of the fear of losing their support through votes.
Not only this, it's also a feedback mechanism. A company exceeds quarterly expectations, more people jump to buy their shares as a result executives sell and profit. And large companies will have projects which might take long to profit, but they can be immediately judged on their next move post IPO. How will this work in a private company?
In other words, it's called "clan like thinking" - that's exactly what makes a startup successful.
Without this you can never succeed, anyone who says otherwise is not telling you the complete truth.
