The more I fret about keeping up with the latest and greatest tech, the more I need to come back to stuff like this. Words are fun too, and creativity isn't limited to building startups. -Someone who majored in neither comp sci nor lit

I can hack some python, but I am not really a SWE. I came up just short in a Stripe interview a couple months ago- the whole thing was really pleasant and I'm going to try again in the spring. I didn't really realize what it meant

The original from years ago had a solid portfolio management tool where you could track your cost basis and positions. Still haven't found another replacement for that other than good 'ol Excel...

My Garmin 245 tracks my runs, rides, and swims. The data is then pushed to Strava- is there any reason for me to buy an apple watch? I take it I'm not the target audience here? Anyhoo, if it gives folks an accurate and understandable v

I don't think it's as easy as the author suggests, but I do think it's an interesting idea. Part of why everyone has to do esoteric leetcode problems every time they interview with a new company is because there is no uniform

the gossip I heard was they backed away after crushing the SMB space, because they realized they could take on Enterprise. Stripe is trying to position themselves as the AWS of payments, and it'll take them a couple years to really get

Been seeing a lot of Psilocybin on the front of HN lately and I'm loving it. With Oregon legalizing it, I can't wait to try it out.

With Oregon legalizing magic mushrooms my interest in psychedelics has been piqued again. very keen to read more about all of this.

It blows my mind that after a decade of user data, they still can't automatically detect when someone accidentally uploads a bike ride as a run activity. Like yea, kudo phil for knocking out those... 3 minute miles for two hours. \rant

I reluctantly still use it as my main training log- since about early 2012. The network effects are real, if it's not on Strava it didn't happen. That said, the segment leaderboards are complete garbage. I really wish they'd

I'm not a CPA or CFP etc etc. However, my personal belief is the right balance is borrowing money when the expected rate of return is greater than the interest rate on the loan. Right now money is "cheap", whether it's a

I think it says a lot more about how strict the readability standards are for submitting stuff to corp/production. Even code written by a moron by me looks decent after code review.

Now that I think about it, I'm really curious as well. I didn't work in Cloud, but my perception is TK is really reshaping GCP as well as the Gsuite to whatever it is now. Sundar's role seems to really be give his lieutenants

This mimics my own diagnosis. Stage 2 non metastatic as a fairly healthy runner / cyclist. That was four years ago. now age 32 and healthy as ever.

This is how I feel in Chicago. Halloween, Thanksgiving, and other winter holidays will be totally different this year to say nothing of the slog that is Jan - March.

Even internally, changing job ladders is a not a trivial task. I've had friends pass the swe interview and have hiring committee come back and state the questions weren't sufficient. prepping for interviews is it's own 20% pr

I used to run pretty competitively, however I'd always train with music / an ipod. In fact I still run with my iPod classic. Even with music I still daydream almost every run. Concentration is a muscle that has to be trained like

This has to be a green light for TK to take Cloud and really run with it. There's no way Sundar can give as much attention to Google and all the other bets simultaneously. Curious what side projects of Larry and Sergey get turned down

I'm about 6ft and have a slightly longer stride than most folks, I'd say I could do it comfortably in about 40 minutes. Depending on traffic lights and the such it's about 15 mins on the bike or train.

I must be very sick in the head because the thought of a single family four bedroom house 30+ min away from my work does not sound appealing at all. I quite enjoy urban life and the tapestry of humanity that fills it. Anywhere other than SF

My girlfriend loves Poshmark. You can buy/sell lightly used clothing for pennies on the dollar. Think of it as Ebay meets slightly upscale Goodwill.

People don't want to live in the valley. With their push on cloud it makes sense to bolster their regional offices as sales territories solidify. An added bonus is most teams will have a bit more flexibility in where headcount is- just
