It doesn't matter how the hypervisor is arranged, but it is still just a virtual machine. Just because it happens to run on a type1 vs type2 hypervisor means not much, or just go ask around whether Xen is any faster than KVM these days.
For me it feels quite the opposite. OS X is built upon on a Unix core and shares such common heritage. There is consistency in the design throughout all OS levels. On the contrary with Windows and GNU/Linux, IMHO two very incompatible architectures. The business rationale for Microsoft behind this is clear but hybrids represent mostly a temporary transition state. So the question is, what comes next, where is the journey to go?

Looking at the company's history it seems that it was pretty much a military research outfit for a long time.
It's shocking - have a look before it gets taken down.

This seems like a great idea: Founders can share feedback about VC's with other founders, which can be great for finding the right fit, or calling out bad acting.

Unfortunately, it seems to be ridiculous pile of trashy gossip and innuendo. Positive reviews are gloating, negative reviews are almost childish, I'm really upset at the casual lack of professionalism here.

First, to speak publicly and poorly about someone is a 'very big thing to do'. These words can have a lot of impact, it's like 'filing a lawsuit' you and better be prepared to be very conscientious and correct about it all if you think you're going to take a run at someone's career.

Second, it seems a lot of founders have little ability to contextualize for 'other people's positions'. Many of the negative reviews I think are sour grapes and excuses on 'we didn't get funding' and then misinterpreting or misrepresenting the positions of others.

"The VC's didn't even get back to us, they're obviously disorganized clowns" -> or maybe your company isn't worth their time?

"He told us he was investing in a similar company, but we couldn't find it" -> or maybe he was finding a polite way to say 'no'?

"We assumed this guy was kind of a hustler, and didn't know what he was doing, but it turned out he knew a few things" -> what position are you to make such an assessment, and why on earth would you say such things publicly about someone.

"We met XXX from top-tier VC and it was underwhelming. He didn't seem to be interested or ask very good questions" -> Maybe your company is boring, he knew it was a 'no' in the first five minutes, and was polite enough to entertain you with some questions?

Founders, as a non-VC I'm going to say you're going to have to be very, very careful about talking publicly especially negatively about others, VCs or not. Get past your petty emotional response and consider that other people will view your situation differently, and that nobody is obligated to like you, pay attention to you, or care one way or another about you.

If someone does something clearly nefarious, and is a problem for others, then possibly you could make a case for this, but otherwise, this exercise is pointless.

It does seem however there's also quite a lot of 'shifty' investors on some level which is not surprising, but it's going to take much more quality, professional feedback for this type of forum to be useful.

The only way I've seen people con it, is where the people doing the tasks are also trusted with scoping and estimating it. You need to have multiple people "sign off" on or buy into the scoping and estimation process. E.g. One person does an "investigation" task (e.g. Look into feasibility / difficulty of x). This should be somebody with enough experience to give a good rough estimate. Their estimate can them be discussed at the next sprint planning session, and everybody should agree on the final estimate (story points, or size label, however you do your sprints).

Then, if the bullshitter gets to the end of the sprint and says they didn't complete a 1-2 day task in 10 days, you can start asking why. They do this consistently across 2-3 sprints, you know something is up. Assume they're more junior than their job title and try giving them easier tasks. Still not getting much done? They're a bullshitter. Fire them / raise with their manager.

If vendor A's cards are $180, $280 and $380 and vendor B's cards are $150, $250 and $350, it's common practice to group them into three price points of $150-199, $250-299 and $350-399 so that each card gets compared to its nearest in price.

Sure a "whiteboard interview" basically optimizes for people who can actually pass whiteboard interviews rather than people who can do the job.

But to claim that there is a NON-NEGLIGIBLE number of people who basically become 100% ignorant when under the stress of a whiteboard interview BUT are excellent employees in any other stressful situation is, to say it in nice words, [requires citation].

And if one really has this apparent rather unique type of handicap, then better mention on CV to try to get some empathy from the hirer, or just _train_ to avoid it. Yes, most people do _train_ for the express purpose of passing interviews.

> Why are people constantly personifying corporations?

Because corporations aren't democratic, so their policies are not the sum of all employees working there's opinions. Most of it is the result of top-down decisions, which in practice are made by fewer than 20 people: the board and the CEO. Technically, we could add shareholders to that list, but IIRC they barely exercise their right to vote. What's more: corporations as legal entities specifically exist to limit liability for the aforementioned people.

So when "Facebook" doesn't care about your privacy, it's Zuck and the board that don't, not individual developers. When "Shell" sponsors climate change denial, it's the board, not someone pumping your gas deciding. The personification is valid up to a point because the corporation as such is only a (useful) fictional construct.

I don't know the broader history of Apple's behaviour towards developers since I'm not an iOS developer, so I can't say whether this is a matter of policy or a snafu. Based on what I know, I'd also lean towards incompetence and not malice in this particular case.
Looking at the AMD and nVidia software, I see it surfacing a lot of hardware-/vendor-specific options and I don't see how it could be done any differently. Then there's Realtek, where I've never seen their software add anything useful that doesn't already exist in system settings. But then again, there are drivers like those for the Xonar DX or other soundcards where a bunch of useful features and configuration options are surfaced.

I think there are pros and cons. PulseAudio could possibly be half the incomprehensible monstrosity that it is if it didn't have to take over the responsibilities of every audio driver out there. On the other hand, Realtek will arbitrarily disable/hide features with no way (that I've found) to do anything about as a user.
The other ones are necessary too. The issue is that people will loose attention - it is not possible for humans to not loose attention when nothing is happening for long time. And even when things are happening, it is not possible for humans to keep attention all the time.

The control is one thing, but manager can prevent you to look at phone and manager is creating interruption from monotony. The rotation is necessary to deal with human hardware which requires breaks (and moving car requries faster responses then drowning person).

The overlapping zones deal with fact that breaks and manager being present is still not enough.

Through, lifeguards at a swimming pool in are typically not expected to be attentive for hours. They rotate and switch.
The point is to not place someone in a position where their attention would likely wander (for example not having active shifts over 30 minutes in the case of a lifeguard).

Honestly I find people claiming something is "inaudible" or "not audible" on the internet extremely dubious, because every time I buy some cooler that people claim is "inaudible", I find it very audible. Either I have good ears, or people have very bad ears or loud environments. I assume in many of these cases people simply live in loud cities and have lost any feeling for what the word quiet means and regard PC fans whirling around at 20-25 dBA as quiet.

And in any case, with air cooling and components that aren't bottom-of-the-barrel, the quiet part ceases as soon as load is applied anyway. But that's what I'm here for, so a PC that's only quiet as long as I don't use it - pointless.

I strongly agree with this. When I am doing hobby projects, I can easily maintain my motivation because I believe in the value of the product and I'm working tk implement my own vision. When I am working at my job, I find the architecture and design parts fairly interesting, but I've come to hate the implementation due to either a lack of belief in the product or the overbearing bureaucracy.

Sadly, I have not found a real solution for this at my job. I have tried changing teams, but I usually find similar issues on each - the biggest being a lack of confidence in how the business product owner is handling the system's business process design. So I just carry on, knowing that I'll never get promoted or be a respected part of the system. I've spent the last 5 years in this mindset and it's terrible, but at least I can support my family (what was that quote from Home Improvement... something like 'there's no such thing as a crappy job if you're using that money to support your family').

Maybe, but it doesn't sound right when written in Serbian. For comparison, here is an actual Serbian proverb literally translated to English:

"Bolje vrabac u ruci, nego golub na grani" means "better to have a sparrow in your hand than a pidgeon in a tree." Far less poetic than the native English bird-holding proverb "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" (which sounds strange when translated to Serbian as well -- "ptica u ruci vredi dve ptice u šumi", despite the fact it happens to rhyme).

Proverbs and sayings have a specific kind of poetry in their native language which doesn't survive translation. It seems much more likely to me that it was simply misattributed.
This story hit me hard. I read his book today, its a deeply emotional and worthwhile story.

Some stray phrases in the book led me to search some details of South African history that I didn't have a strong grasp on.

Somehow the various internet wide analytics decided this meant I should see this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guLmA6dWKes

It probably requires some context (/research) to understand the context on this. (I certainly did). But I found the implications of this video utterly fascinating. There are a really quite large number of layers to analyze in this.
Everyone experiences stress on an interview, and thus may not be able to solve "do you know it" problems that he would have been perfectly solved after a better night's sleep. That is not the problem (we call them "happy idea" problems around here). I really dislike being asked this type of problems and I also dislike asking them for these reasons. Despite the fact the positions I've interviewed for you end implementing "pure data structures" much more than you end up implementing business rules (we build software for engineering: simulation, optimization, etc.). So imagine how low I set the bar between my colleagues.

The problem is when you apparently _forget_ the syntax for a function declaration in a programming language you claim N years of experience in your CURRENT position. This is just absurd. Our you suddenly get completely stuck with counting odd numbers on a sequence or the like. And this happens surprisingly frequently. I just cannot believe you can have this type of anxiety (I am extremely shy myself) outside your first or maybe second interview.
I'm not familiar with any of this, but just read those links and they don't back up your claim.

You’re not supposed to do nothing. You’re supposed to watch the road and ensure the safety of yourself, the car and the other road users.

I’m not saying it is realistic to expect the driver to be attentive the whole trip, but watching a video on a phone is just gross negligence.

Watching something while doing nothing is a job that has been around for a long time. If you’re employed to do that job, you cannot watch a video on your phone, especially when a failure kills someone. The whole reason you’re hired to watch a thing is to prevent that from happening.

Comparing it to the lifeguards discussions above: you wouldn’t allow phone usages as a lifeguard either.

I'm a huge fan of Metabase and I've used it extensively but the pricing model is really tough.

Taking myself as an example: At the growth stage we're at, we'll start to need more data access logging/auditing, per row permissions to guard PII, etc. but I can't justify going from free to 10k/yr to our board quite yet.

It would be great if the cloud option could introduce some of those features (not all) at a price point that makes it easier for more startups to sign on like mine as we keep growing. Right now it feels like I need to leave Metabase as our needs expand and hope that at some point down the line, we can justify the cost and come back to it.

"Windows programs for Linux"? It doesn't really have any better filesystem integration. The filesystem is stored on a disk image on WSL2 as on any other VM. You can mount other host filesystems from inside the VM in any hypervisor I know of.
