I'm happy that we agree on this. Having said that, I would note that your example, while certainly valid, is IMHO of a too small scale (literally and figuratively - the latter with regard to complexity) to comprehensively illustrate th

I think that "mental models" is not what you imply and others in this thread talk about. A more appropriate term would be [life | work | other] "principles".

Congratulations on your launch and good luck! The following are my initial impressions and thoughts upon a brief review of your product. Hope this helps. 1. It seems that pretty much all of the functionality that your platform offers could

Just ran across this relevant nice little article, which I found quite interesting: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/09/android-to-take-an-u... . I hope that people who interacted with me in this sub-threa

Good points. Though I'm a bit confused by your reply. Are you saying that LineageOS folks do not always or, at least, mostly use the latest AOSP common kernels for their relevant ROMs (as opposed to "some open source kernel fixe

Obviously, not all devices have up-to-date kernels. It depends on whether they are supported by relevant Android distributions. That's why I used the phrase "quite up-to-date" instead of just "up-to-date". Unfortuna

Got it, thank you! I'm just wondering about whether this limitation can be alleviated / worked around by combining sharding and replication. In that case, I would expect the primary DB cluster to maintain the write lock during sha

Understood. Thank you for the clarification.

I'm not sure what you meant by "online rebalancer" above, but shard rebalancer in Citus is open source since March 2021: https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2021/03/13/scaling-out-postgr...

You posted a broken link to JD. The correct one is https://jobs.lever.co/getaround/ae0eaeff-a894-4f01-bc31-837d... .

I see. Thank you for clarifications.

Congratulations and thanks to all involved! Do I understand correctly that, at this time, while PG has data sharding and partitioning capabilities, it does not offer some related features found in Citus Open Source (shard rebalancer, distri

Congratulations! I'm curious about what equity management platforms have you used during your journey since 2012 and what platform you use now. I would venture to guess that the latter is Carta, since they have pre- and post-IPO suppor

Carta's most popular functionality (cap table and board management, 409A valuation etc.) represents a subset of what AngelList Stack offers. On the other hand, the former offers some high(er)-end functionality that is currently missing

I'm glad that we're on the same page on this. Your motivation is totally understandable and the end result (including relevant blog post) is both very nicely done and educational. Thank you for this and your other resources that y

This is pretty cool, kudos to the author. However, I'm curious about why would you want to use a genetic algorithm (GA) for what is clearly a relatively straightforward computer vision (CV) problem. I would argue that the GA-based evol

I'm not sure why that would be the case here. Unless, for some reason(s), he has sold most of his share of the company to Sytse, I don't see why Dmitriy would own less stock than his co-founder. Especially considering that Dmitri

Good point. In that case, it's fair to consider both being the first remote-only/first public companies in respective categories (IPO and DL).

I think that the most fascinating fact about this upcoming IPO is that, to the best of my knowledge, GitLab is the first remote-only (i.e., no-headquarters) company in the world filing for an IPO. In any case (meaning even if I'm wrong

Such an extensive interview and not a single question on Julia - it's a shame. I would love to hear Mr. Gosling's opinion on the language.
