They raised $250m a couple years ago, and have been acquiring smaller companies like theme shops, local site management tool based on Docker and Electron, etc. They've got a mature platform suitable for businesses, and it looks like they have a very healthy growth trajectory.

On the other hand, for me they're becoming the "big company" in your description, and I'd prefer a self-hosted or at least open-source solution.
Yup! I'm their target audience too, and they lost me at the headline.
I somehow have the feeling this comment was written by an AI.

The person/human is significantly more important.

After working with duds from top schools, I'm not sure why it happens. How do they get accepted? How do they graduate? How did they get past interviews?
Disclosure means sharing information that was previously “held close” (private). When people are afraid of being distrusted, they disclose their interests as a show of good faith.

Disclaimer means refusing to accept responsibility for someone else‘a decision to rely on you. When people are afraid of getting sued, they disclaim liability.
Yeah once i figured this out and just memorized everything I started passing interviews at top tech. I used to think their employees were geniuses, really they just study alot to get in

Just a personal story; but I think remote work can only work if the entire team (or at least the majority of the team) is remote. I'm currently the only remote person in the team, and it's so frustrating. For them, getting me involved in anything is an extra step, as to them I'm the only remote person. But for me, everyone is remote, and I have a lot more expectations about communication and meetings.

Just to name one thing; meetings that start 5-10 minutes late. For them it's normal, because they're in the room, or walking to the room, or at least aware as to why a meeting is starting late. To me, it's 15 minutes wasted, and there's no communication what's going on.

We're getting better at it tho; or at least, I've lowered my expectations of them. I know that I will be left out of meetings frequently, I know that every meeting will start 5-10 minutes late.

That said, I love working remotely, although I would prefer to find a team that's used to it.
Your criticism doesn’t apply to rust.

Rust is inspired by PL staples like Haskell and OCaml (borrowing concepts and syntax from them), and was partially designed by PL researchers. The lineage of the borrow-checker in Rust goes back a long way to lots of academic works in region-based memory management and linear logic.
Yeah sometimes the model can get off track and it can be hard to get it back. The best way is just to revert a few actions back by typing "revert"

"I was going to get it" is past tense. Using past tense for something can imply that it's something that was true in the past, but not now.

This can irritate people because it comes off as trying to claim credit for intent to do the task without actually doing it.

While "Please stop. I've got this" is the best phrasing because its what your wife has requested as well as what the other commenter stated, I imagine you would have still got a fine result if you used present or future tense. "I"m getting it" or "I'll get it".

Tenses, and other grammar on their level, is definitely something you will be able to find scripts for.

Co-mingling is fine for books or, really, the vast majority of products. That in itself is not much of a problem... returns are free.

Supply chain definitely matters on anything you eat or ingest, though. Are you sure they co-mingle food and medicine?
Trying to equate adding context with 'downplaying' a topic is what's slowly turning people off to most activism. You're not doing anyone favors by advocating for ignorance.
Yeah seems like theres somewhat of a debate over whether you should say “I know this one” on an interview, which I generally would not, but most linked list questions are so much trivia its like you either know it or you don’t. Contrast with a graph problem that I immediately know requires dfs but I can never remember the details so I can honestly put on a convincing show of working them out.
How does one apply to this role?
Not particularly, since most employers reimburse your transportation costs (generally up to 50k yen, but I’ve seen 100k).

Uh, no.

And, an educated guess here, probably increased emissions on the overrun.

Also, no. Most cars built in the last 30+ years will stop injecting fuel during overrun.
Convinced my employer to let me work 100% remotely a few years ago.
I have noticed the same tendency among people who follow politics and the media closely in Australia. Some political activists are organising talks designed to introduce non-technical people to doing their own cryptography. People would definitely pay a reasonable premium for a secure service where they get to meet everybody with the physical ability to snoop on their data.
This seems like a bad tradeoff. Increasing wear on expensive, hard to replace parts (your engine and transmission), so that you can save on relatively inexpensive, easy to replace parts (your brake pads)

So that's not actually the tradeoff you're making. More to the point you run a much higher risk of acute failure with brakes than with anything else. When that happens on a downgrade you can't stop. If you were actually increasing wear on piston rings (a laughable argument at best) you might end up needing to rebuild the engine after a few decades.

It's even worse when it only appears when you're scrolling up. You want to scroll up one line to re-read the sentence that scrolled off screen. Nope, now you have to scroll 50px because the navbar spawned. Oh, it's gone again. Nope, it's back, I didn't even mean to scroll up 1px that time.

It's no wonder my girlfriend makes more than I do as a UX professional. Someone on the team that actually has the users' interest at heart is critical. Else you get these ridiculous break-room ideas that nobody spent more than 5 seconds thinking about.

My favorite McKinsey story: Back in 2005 UBS (big Swiss Bank) brought McKinsey in to figure out how to expand more rapidly in the US. The consultants suggested, "Hey, you have almost no sub-prime exposure. Everyone's trading this stuff! You gotta go in, and in a big way! It will certainly be a pillar of your US strategy."

So UBS did... The result was one of the most severe debt writeoffs of the Great Financial Crisis.

Great points. The thing I always come back to is:

“Nobody cares about you”,

The interviewer didn't do so hot either. Instead of staying silent (mentioned a few times) when things got off track, he should have intervened.

Ultimately, the purpose of the interview is to allow the interviewer to become convinced to recommend hiring. If you're going down a path that isn't going to result in that, you're depriving the candidate of that opportunity. Not to mention wasting everyone's time.

Sometimes that means the candidate will have to adapt their answer to the interviewer. Everybody is different, and this is the interviewer who has been assigned. Occasionally, that may even mean dumbing down your answer.

Of course, for narrative reasons, the interviewer in this story has to be passive. Otherwise the story would be about 90% shorter.
Adults only pass on half of their genes during reproduction. I imagine at least in the case of in vitro fertilization there's a fair amount you can do to make sure the harmful genes aren't the ones passed along, so long as the parent doesn't have two copies of an autosomal dominant harmful mutation.

I wouldn't be surprised if more advanced methods exist either; as a carrier for a rare genetic disease maybe I should figure this out.
Oh my god. I had to read this twice, but what you said here finally made me realize the severity of this. Thanks.

This is neither a troll nor survivor’s bias. My brother also makes great money.

What does it have to do with lottery? I’m suggesting that hard work and diligence makes you successful. Sure, I’m moderately intelligent (or I might not have been able to learn web dev, etc.), but if others are not intelligent enough to pull themselves up in the world, it’s not my job to pay them more for not being intelligent. People that are less intelligent can do labor jobs and get paid less. It’s not an insult. It’s common sense and it has always been the case. Even the poorest of poor laborers in America have a better life than the middle class in some countries. Anybody who’s got $1000 phone (read: just about everyone) has no right to complain about how expensive it is to afford an apartment and that somebody else should help them pay for that by forcing them to pay higher wages... this nonsense is completely nuts.
It's that time vs money tradeoff. If your life circumstances change... and I don't know what your situation is, but say you have a few dependents and you want them in specific schools or to have a yard or whatever... then the equation changes.

She should get a living wage. The kids should take less hours so they have more time to do things other than being a wage slave. Everyone who works should get a living wage.

If everyone has a living wage, the businesses will do better because people will have more money to spend. That’s the point of investment. Our economy is built off of the consumer, who has been stagnating for decades. We could be doing far better with a stronger middle class.

Yes, the same way if suddenly raw materials got more expensive. The prices would increase and the companies would make less money as fewer people would be buying. That is assuming the price before the cost increase or VAT was set at a point to maximize profits.
Raw numbers provide comparisons and measure progress too. Not sure what you mean by context.

I’m of the same mind as your OP: the goal is zero violence, in raw numbers. Shooting for a low seeming percentage seems to be most often just a way to hide the fact that specific small groups are consistently receiving the lions share of violence, which is unacceptable to me.
I just learned about the mute switch yesterday. It's nice that they have one, but keeping your smart speaker mic off 100% of the time severely limits it's usefulness where as you can disable the smart assistant on your phone and still have a perfectly functional phone.
I also came here wondering about the Battlezone font.
It is funny that the dog whistle for conservatism these days are the immigrants whom are supposedly taking peoples jobs.

When the Reagan administration changed the regulations around meatpacking to break the unions and ship the industry back to 1910 standards to rural places, none of the principled conservatives were complaining about cheap meat packing and illegal workers who didn’t collect workers compensation or have pesky demands for health insurance.

Likewise, none of the large apple growers around me were too concerned about guest worker visas when they were able to hire on Jamaicans for a few months, house them in onsite dormitories and pay below market rates. They love to bitch about Mexican construction guys though.

When I worked in the mall in the 90s, the struggle of unskilled workers was obvious and sad. At that time, most workers made $4.25, and the barrier to moving up for folks not in college was a car. Getting a $12/hr job as a line cook at Pizza Uno or $15/hr job cleaning offices meant freedom for those people.

If labor standards didn’t allow the abysmal working conditions that only desperate Latin American or other immigrants are willing to take, the market would take care of that problem. Instead of shipping in Apple pickers from 4,000 miles away, you could hire folks 10 miles away and bus them in.
I was recently in both Barcelona and Paris, and if I compare English proficiency in both cities compared to 20 or 30 years ago, it's night and day different. So many more people speak English now than ever before.

Being able to speak a few key phrases in French, Spanish, or Catalan still goes a long way.

It's electronics and thermodynamics actually. People tend to anthropomorphize electronics, but Tcase of up to about 72C is not an issue at all for a CPU (official Tjunction max is 100-105C - that's the temperature of the chip inside the case). The spec states that the CPU will work fine as long as this temperature is not exceeded. In electronics the spec is the word of god, and if it says so, the chip is safe to operate at that temperature for its rated lifetime.

Consider as well that cooling systems require temperature gradient in order to work, the higher the temperature gradient, the less air you need to move to dissipate the heat. Apple has been doing very careful thermal management for well over a decade and a half now. They don't excessively cool their hardware. This is made possible by vertical integration: they can rely on the readings of their temperature sensors (unlike say a PC enthusiast, where those readings can be wildly off).
Deep cycling performance depends on the battery chemistry. Most cars in the US use a type of lead-acid battery that can't be deep cycled even a single time without serious risk of damage to the cell. I would assume this is true of any lead-acid battery not intended for deep cycling everywhere else in the world too as it adds significant cost to battery.

RIP OG Pixel: Google ends support after three years
Good lord Rick's Free Auto Repair Advice is worth what you paid for it. Compression brakes (of which Jacobs is one brand) actually do increase top end wear on a diesel quite a bit. What Rick is prattling on about might have been an issue in the 60s when engines would be well worn by 100,000 miles and PCV was not a thing. These days you're sucking crankcase gasses right into the combustion chamber constantly thanks to what's known as positive crankcase ventilation. Typically when you see a puff of smoke after overrun that's an indication of bad valve guides more than anything else (also not a common occurrence these days).

Oil in your catalytic converter isn't good, but that's why you have one or more spark plugs per cylinder — to burn it. There's the issue of heavy metals in the oil (e.g. zinc – generally in the form of ZDDP) that can damage your cat, sure, but that's why the current API specs have reduced the amount of allowable zinc a revision or so ago (API SN or SM I believe). Zinc is a great anti-wear additive but in high enough concentration can damage your cat.

Stop and go traffic will wear your clutch out (assuming we're talking cars with dry plate clutches here and not a motorcycle or anything else with a wet clutch). Engine braking will not (assuming you're not riding the brakes or constantly shifting while trying to slow down). Hell, even if you are downshifting needlessly if you're rev matching you're not wearing the clutch all that much. I'll take this fictitious clutch wear over acute brake failure thank you very much. In fact I've yet to destroy a cat or clutch in San Francisco traffic.
I'm sure many others' experiences are great. The point was that from what I've heard, such an opportunity exists mainly for people who are not me.
Happy to talk about it offline / privately as we are quietly working towards releasing something. Not sure how is best to reach you?
So since the living wage is different for a single mom with two kids than a single person living alone, should the minimum wage be different for one than the other?

It's not. Even a single complete discharge event is often if not usually enough to kill the performance of a lead-acid battery not intended for deep cycle.

let's not jump to conclusions here.

but if attackers are really targeting your phone, then security and safety should be your first concern. it's beyond "let me have a little privacy" at this point.

in any case, people are conflating that with willingly (or unwillingly) throwing tons of private information about them and people around them at entities who don't know what to do with all that data right now.

When I started at amazon I was encouraged to pitch a project or feature once a month. More importantly I was encourage to write up things I disagreed with or try to sell stuff that was very half assed, and work on getting it to a real idea.

As I did this I got better and better. I can write up 3-5 page design docs in about 1-2 hours now and these can bootstrap others into your thinking very easy. I've found that they also just ground an argument when everyone is arguing about totally different things. Even if they are now all arguing AGAINST your idea, you've made progress.

It's just a muscle you have to exercise. And iterate with feedback. Learn from where people have trouble understanding your document. If they don't understand it, take it as feedback that you are not clear enough.
