what kind of personality types?
I'm quite precise about about what these tools can and cannot do on my systems. Downloading random files form the Internet isn't on the list. When you hand over the control of the hosts file to someone else, you're basically transfer control of your DNS queries.
Pink ribbons raise awareness of breast cancer, not how to tie a pink ribbons. The Ice Bucket Challenge raised awareness of how to do the Ice Bucket Challenge far more than awareness of what ALS is.

Maybe that is why the money rolled in, it was an internet meme that wasn't rocket science to do but everyone wanted in on the fad. Fortunately for the ALS charity the default was for the money to go their way.

So maybe not a win on awareness raising even if they did get the cash.
More like be consistent and have a routine. Really complex stuff, I know.
> Of course there’s nothing stopping Nissan from introducing a new upgraded Leaf in 2019. Maybe they did?

Yes they did. And it starts shipping to european customers this summer as per <1>. So you’re comparing preorder shipment numbers for tesla model 3 with previous gen leafs when a model refresh is coming and the new model can actually already be preordered. And the leaf still is not far behind in May.

I mean there are plenty of places that pay well, allow you to work from home and have no real set hours. Those places have made me feel like my best years were not at college.
As a result of the funding, researchers were able to discover NEK1 - a newly tagged identify genetic factors contributing to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The article was published in Nature and can be found here. https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3626. The discovery was a direct result of the money raised from the Ice Bucket Challenge and can be used today as an indicator of genetic predisposition to ALS.
While I agree with humane treatment of prisoners, that's a very slippery argument. Every prison is technically inhumane enough to send some people to attempt suicide.
Fair point. I have quite a few code samples from libraries I've developed which I can provide. I just wanted to get some insight into the ambiguous criteria for "best".
> When Google acquired Alooma, they slowed down the development and dropped the support for other destinations such as Redshift and Hive.
Do you have a source for that? As far as I can see on their website [1] they still support it

A record of successfully repaying debt is highly relevant to whether you're likely to repay your debt in future. Credit risk is only partly about affordability; many people who can afford to reliably repay their debts still fail to do so, for a variety of reasons.

It doesn't really matter to lenders whether you "game" the system; if you're sufficiently organised, responsible and financially stable to take out and repay debts solely for the purpose of improving your credit history, then you're probably a good person to lend to. Americans tend to use a lot of consumer credit, so not having a credit card, a cellphone contract or a car loan makes you anomalous.

I don't know what country you're in, but here in the UK "building credit" is very much a thing; I'd be very surprised if it had no impact whatsoever on your creditworthiness in your country.

Well given the pseudoanonymous nature of the original cryptocurrency, and its popularity for illegal activities, I would assume not. But maybe it is more about rampant capitalism and maximise-personal-profit-at-whatever-cost nowadays.
And CEQA, trade unions, rent control, zoning, etc.
As an engineer, this has really fascinated me. Tableau, Salesforce, Excel, etc. were things that never made a significant amount of sense to me. I thought mostly of Salesforce as a CRUD app (which it is!), Tableau as d3 with nicer ergonomics, and Excel as... well... something I never understood.

If this is something you guys are interested in, I started a company called Retool (https://tryretool.com) that is essentially Excel for developers. Imagine if every Excel cell — instead of being a cell — were instead a React component. So you drag and drop these components around, and you can connect them to any back-end datasource (postgres, APIs, etc.). So you could drag on a table and have it pull data from `select * from users` from postgres, and then drag on a button and have it `POST` the selected row back to your API, in order to ban a particular user. The goal is to let end users build CRUD apps (like Salesforce) around their existing datasources quickly.

If you guys have any feedback... I'd really appreciate it. We're just starting out, and really curious to get any feedback from developers. Thanks!
Many examples of people in that age having started up on their own, be it some wondrous website thru to a mobile phone app.

Ease of access to consumers with the likes of ebay or app stores and lower running costs into breaking into those avenues have opened up many an avenue that was harder to access before.

But that is progress, come 50+, you may end up having the same perspective in relation to when you started out and starting out today.
