I've dealt with similar kids. Usually they're young, have never had a job before and don't seem to have any common sense, right? I worked at Starbucks once and there was this new kid I could never stand. He seemed to mean well but so dumb, and this wasn't his first job. He was maybe 19. I turned around one day (I was…

I'd be curious to see how they're measuring that success though. App downloads are one thing, but a million downloads or whatever isn't the same as successfully bringing together a million couples or aiding a million hookups. I have Tinder too but I've never slept with anybody on there, I get lots of matches but…

"So the key in our mind is to admit and accept that there is no such thing as "creepy" behavior, but rather, what's "creepy" or unwanted behavior, relative to you."

That's a hilariously naive statement. Is it all men on your team or what? Maybe one or two token women? There are absolutely "blanket creepy" statements…

"So the key in our mind is to admit and accept that there is no such thing as "creepy" behavior, but rather, what's "creepy" or unwanted behavior, relative to you."

Hahahahaha. So there's no women on the team working on this at all, eh? Especially not at the top, decision-making level? That's an adorably naive…

Better to try and attract only the audience you want than to try and filter it after the fact. I'd like to see an app that's explicitly feminist and for feminists, that markets itself that way clearly and boldly. People who disagree with that ideology - who, in turn, may also be sexist - would be turned off or join…

Volumes of Photoshop, maybe.

I get what you're saying, but the girls were pretty clearly shot separately (except Lindsay and Tina Fey, obviously) and put together in the spread on a computer. They also did some weird shrinking to the woman that played Gretchen Weiners, she looks out of proportion compared to the…

And conversely, they have very very few non-push up bras for those of us with larger chests, 'cause why wouldn't I want my DD's to look like YY's? But don't expect them to sell you bras that actually fit those larger natural sizes, just bras to pretend like you have to have breasts that large. Victoria's Secret…

When I worked there I avoided all finger/hand/wrist jewellery personally just 'cause you were always getting your hands wet with water and milk and whatever, always washing them or using wet cloths, etc. Having jewellery on, especially rings, made it really hard to keep your hands clean and not gross without having to…

Actually, just the clarify, when it comes to BDSM sex, the sub is actually in control. Yes, the dom does all the dominant stuff and takes action, but the dom is constantly listening to and watching the sub and they have complete control over what happens and when things need to stop or change.

At least, in a healthy,…

Actually, you're wrong.

"Does the USA allow women to kill their rapists (or attempted rapists) and get off scot free?" Firstly, self-defence is an acceptable reason for hurting or possibly killing somebody. It's not a great situation all around but it allows for somebody being attacked to fight off their attacker…

That's just not how it works. There is no one person in charge of all Halloween, firstly. Different people in charge of different merchandise areas would be in charge of the Halloween version of their shop. Secondly, it all comes down to trusting their employees. One guy fucked up and was a dick, but that doesn't mean…

This was actually more likely in-house and they probably trust their people to come up with standard category names and not be dicks.

Not necessarily. At a big company like this, the team of online merchandisers (and there's likely at least a dozen) would be trusted to do it right. The naming of a campaign would go though a lot of people, but that would be the overarching "Halloween" promo name, they wouldn't discuss names for sub cats together and…

Yeah? That doesn't really change that it was likely the online merchandisers and not the devs that did this. There are custom CMS's that create URLs like that, not unusual. Probably a poor joke or a working title while they were waiting for the official thing, and some idiot pushed it live. Still not cool, I'm just a…

I would bet this is an in-house team with a custom CMS that allows them to work without touching any kind of code. The bit about it starting as a (horrible) joke wouldn't surprise me though.

For the record, it's not usually developers that put together these sections and descriptions on a big retail site like this, it would be the online merchandisers. People who are hired to oversee the merchandise on the site and group it and display it in the best way possible, to promote deals/sales, etc. They also…

I tend to organize things like that on facebook so everybody can see the comments about what others are willing to bring, but I also request no chips (or say I'll take care of them and mixers) and otherwise post an up-to-date list of what everybody else is bringing so there aren't doubles or a lack of food.

They may have gotten the money, but now they've either got racist stuff in their portfolio, which will put off future potential clients, or they won't add it to their portfolio for that same reason so they're not all that better off. I know losing out on the money kinda sucks, but to me if a job isn't worth putting in…

I think you're only in trouble if you feel you NEED to drink. If I've learned anything about alcoholism is that's it's more about mindset than it is about frequency. The need for it usually leads to drinking more often, but there's still a difference. As long as you can say no and stay away from it if you have to,…

Then it would follow that all the dirt and bacteria you regularly wash off yourself in the shower is also going in the water supply. I'm pretty sure all water is treated before it goes back through to your tap, toilet water just needs an extra step to account for the solids.
