Five (5) of the federal contractors listed above submitted written objections to the release of their EEO-1 Reports. The five federal contractors objecting to the release of their EEO-1 Reports are: Hewlett-Packard Co. International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) Apple, Inc. Microsoft Corp. Google Inc. The general reasons for the objections to the release of the companies' EEO-1 Reports include that the confidential commercial information could cause competitive harm through the divulgence to competitors of each firms' organizational and operational strategies plus a multitude of organizational behaviors, patterns and trends; cause negative effects on the firms' markets and market segments; the information, if released, would divulge the firms' staffing models which could provide competitors with staff raiding opportunities; most of the objecting companies believe the release of the EEO-1 Reports could have adverse effects upon growth and expansion activities; and most believe the information release could adversely affect products and services. Only Intel Corp. provided to OFCCP a written statement agreeing to the release of its EEO-1 Reports. Except for Ingram Micro Inc. for which OFCCP holds EEO-1 Reports only for FY2006 and FY2007, OFCCP is releasing on DVDs the EEO-1 reports for the years contained in our database which are from FY2006 through FY2010 for the following five (5) federal contractors: Dell Inc. Intel Corp. Cisco Systems Inc. Ingram Micro Inc. EBay Inc. http://money.cnn.com/2013/03/17/technology/diversity-silicon-valley/index.html

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-08-01/google-said-to-plan-separating-photo-service-from-google-.html the roll back of google+ continues. this is another reminder that the only way google products become successful is by heavy bundling and not because they're actually good

The comments "numbers imply unequal treatment." Right, so since approximately 76% of NBA players are black, surely we could use more diversity there right? Where is Al Sharpton when you need him? Oh yeah, bitching that there aren’t enough black owners to more accurately represent the prodominately black players. Diversity: Euphemism for ’there’s too many white people and/or men here.’ Racist/sexist by its very nature.

Okay, I'm turning into Scott Alexander as I say this, but I'm going to try to steelperson the Projective Inverse Nirvana Fallacy. The Projective Inverse Nirvana Fallacy---let me know if it has a more standard name---is as follows: "Eating a 5-year-old's nose is bad. Eating a whole 5-year-old is worse. This doesn't mean it's okay to eat a 5-year-old's nose." "ARE YOU SAYING IT'S OKAY TO EAT FIVE-YEAR-OLD'S NOSES??! THAT IS TERRIBLY INSENSITIVE TO CHILD VICTIMS OF NASAL CANNIBALISM HOW COULD YOU." On a plain reading, this is a fallacy because something can be bad without being literally as bad as possible. The standard Nirvana Fallacy or Perfect Solution Fallacy is "Because it is not perfect, it is not good". So we might call the reverse reasoning, "Because it is not maximally bad, it is okay" the Inverse Nirvana Fallacy. However, the shouting voice is not actually committing the Inverse Nirvana Fallacy; instead they're acting as if they expect the other person has committed the Inverse Nirvana Fallacy, even despite the disclaimer. So we could call this the Projective Inverse Nirvana Fallacy. The steel version would be as follows. The human brain only has room for a finite amount of indignation because it only has so many neurotransmitters, and we have an awful lot of behavioral economics showing that people tend to evaluate desirability by reference to comparison points. Therefore it is *not* *actually* possible for someone to avoid the Inverse Nirvana Fallacy in themselves and their listeners. If somebody is currently worked up about how bad X is, and you establish Y, which is worse, as a comparison point, they will very probably, and not easily avoidably, become less worked up about X. Therefore anyone trying to put together a coalition against X has a legitimate worry about anyone who strolls in loudly saying, "I agree X is very bad. By the way, Y is even worse than X." The statement is true, but as a speech act in context, it seems like an attempt to sabotage a coalition against X that does best if people can remain genuinely outraged against X, without giving their brains a chance to establish Y as a comparison point. Saying that you agree X is bad doesn't excuse you from this because you can't avoid the event in other people's brains. Okay, now counterargument against the steel version: If we allow this as an argument from People Against X, then we can never actually state the true fact that Y is worse than X and have public debates about how to scale punishments, leaving us with the Draconian code (after Dracon of Athens, 7th century BCE) that goes directly from zero punishments to maximum punishments. This has numerous problems, one of which is that there's no further disincentive against progressively worse acts. (E.g., "My troops, what is the penalty for rebellion?" "Death." "What is the penalty for lateness?" "Death." "My troops, we are late.") I am curious as to what happens if you say on Twitter some realistic example of "Eating a child's nose should be punished by X years in prison, and eating a whole child should be punished by X+Y years in prison", without saying directly that one is worse. Unfortunately I have no good way of finding out.
