Bank accounts and service. Seriously. When you are a startup, a typical model is you deposit $2mm or $4mm or whatever of VC money and spend it down. You are a brand new company with no income and a bunch of money. You trip all their fraud f

I 100% agree. I've seen this happen to many managers at FAANG. You're promised 10 people for a project next year, you get 4. So you cut, manage, optimize, engineer, and hustle to get something done and working. Management above yo

Depends. For web-app and business logic, we have about 95% coverage. All our models and back-end processes are well-tested with error cases. Our front-end & E2E is much lighter and we focus on happy cases. Firmware is mostly tested manu

Amazon logistics is bigger than Fedex, very close to UPS, and closing fast on USPS, as measured by number of packages delivered in the US. So, actually, they are big enough to be the best. Not saying they will be, but scale will not hold th

They can already join your activity across everything. This is about access and collection. So if they move store.google.com to google.com/store, they will have access to all browser permissions you gave google.com/maps or google.

Teams with over 100 users are going from $7 to $24? 150 users * 12 months * $7/month = $12,600 150 users * 12 months * $24/month = $43,000 Is that right? There are customers who will see their bills more than 3x?

I feel like there’s something weird with the dataset. It’s says the average US salary is $110k. That’s seems incredibly low.

Sounds like all my middle management meetings at Google. At least 10 people to make a decision, they all have the ability to veto, but none have approval authority.

I'm guessing the licensing is much more profitable. Especially if, accounting-wise, all the costs of developing the the patents is attributed to the chip division.

Also may be limiting for some people to participate due to their ability to multitask or type quickly (possibly due to a disability).

I tried doing something like this last year. It took a long time to get right. When it finally worked, the bill was far higher than i had estimated due to bandwidth. Overall, i love the idea, but it was a huge pain and not worth my time.
