Your home has appreciated because you either live in an area that has gone through a major growth period (it has improved relative to other areas) or because other owners around you have voted to keep the value of their property increasing

The problem with housing (in the States at least, can’t speak for other countries) is simple. Renters want housing to remain affordable and to increase no faster than inflation. Owners expect (and bank on) the value of their house increasin

I don't think asking for a sign up is unethical, at least not on the same magnitude as the actual Hippocratic Oath is concerned with. I'd envision the Hippocratic Oath for Software might have something to say about writing softwar

Is that true? I've heard that the build quality for new houses in China is terrible.

Yeah, that’s kind of my point. They probably love to come into the office

No, probably not. They’re executives, they probably have offices in different buildings corresponding to their business area throughout Seattle. Like the AWS head doesn’t need to work from the same building as the head of Consumer. But yeah

While I sympathize with those who were laid off, being laid off doesn't give you license to pass off wild speculation as fact in a post like this.

If that’s the case, all the more reason to be mad at Airbnb for removing legitimate reviews.

No, but at least in person it's easier and much more natural to facilitate mentorship opportunities for yourself if your boss isn't so good.

> all the buts will point back to a bad boss, who isn’t fixed by in-person presence. This reasoning is faulty and nearly circular. "Remote work can't be bad, because if it were, it'd be the fault of the boss, and a bad bos

What is the difference between deploying and releasing? Everywhere I’ve worked, those are the same thing. We deploy probably 10 to 30 times a workday. As for Friday deployments, I tend to avoid deploying big changes on Friday but medium and

I think this advice really depends on your scaling needs. If you need to scale your services up, it’s a lot easier to do that if each service only does one thing. It also depends on how much functionality you consider to be “one thing”.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but I think a fair number of people think CEOs and entrepreneurs are immoral for acting in a self-serving, self-enriching manner, and a fair number of people think employees are immoral doing so.

I think you're massively underselling how complex it is to run something at scale. It's not a matter of just making the database go fast. Just using the database as an example (even though there's way more to it than just the

From Musk’s POV, a bunch of solid, well-rounded, and experienced engineers you trust might be enough to tell you “this guy is full of shit” when talking to new people. Maybe it’s less about code quality and more about eng quality.
