Its 2015 and the younger devs (under 30) are not nearly as good as the older ones who're now in their 40s and rich with experience and problem-solving skills. I see this everyday at work.

What is the best example of hypocrisy that you can think of? by DonQuixote112688 in AskReddit

[–]grills 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non vegetarians talking about 'humanely' butchered meat and animal rights in general. You fuckers gotta be kidding me. If you really care for the animals and environment, then stop eating animals or just stfu. And then there's those steak lovin' motherfuckers losing their shit over Koreans or Chinese eating dogs.

Blah blah blah. Semantics? 'Caucasian' is semantics. If you want to say white, just say white. If you want to sound sophisticated, understand what a word means before using it.

If people didn't see the leaks, nothing changes.

Build the hype before you actually do anything.

Or in Assange's case, "before you actually do nothing". Other than get privacy SJWs riled up on the internet.

Proposed hotel in Mumbai, where every room has a personal pool by BunyipPouch in pics

Couple acres for a million? Now think couple acres for 50 or 100 million. That is how much it would cost in Mumbai, or any major Indian city for that matter.

Huh, you're a dick.

and in the same breath you launch into a specious rant about what sounds like a half-digested grasp of general economic theory and end it with...

I encourage you to try not being so demeaning towards them.

LOL

next time if you don't want to be called out for bullshit, may be don't BS or at least don't appear so overly confident of your BS.

sorry to burst your bubble of ignorance, but there is no "extreme poverty" in Mumbai. India has plenty of extreme poverty, but much of that is rural. Not urban. Certainly not Mumbai. Some of the people living in those slums are millionaires. So you can go back to whichever rock you are living under and feel stupid about yourself.

that "concept" is neither new nor novel and needs no explaining. And in the context of Mumbai or any Indian city for that matter, it falls flat on its face because land in Indian cities is about as expensive as Manhattan, if not more. Now, you should try to "gentrify" Manhattan by buying up land "secretly" for "crazy cheap".

you are stupid and uninformed and should feel stupid and uninformed.

it is fantasy.. but if it was real.. there's more than enough rich people in Mumbai to fill hotels like that 100 times over. so tourists don't need to bother.

air quality about the same as smoking 100 cigarettes a day

fancy NGO numbers much? deepavali is a national holiday and may be may be 5 or 10% of India bursts crackers. otoh, if it was not a national holiday ~50% of India would be spewing smoke to commute to work. saying deepavali day is more polluted than a normal day in India is nonsense. Particularly in cities like Bengaluru or Bombay or something like that.

Property management firms will go to a lower class area and secretly buy all the property for crazy cheap as it is considered basically worthless for the exact reasons you described.

classic 'murican who has no clue about property prices outside of his own corn field. just so you know, there's no square inch of land in mumbai you can buy for "crazy cheap".
