Thanks for sharing. Some notes: 1. Signups go right to waitlist, so it's hard to validate any of this. Is this vaporware? Why waitlist? Are you still in dev, or is this an artificial scarcity play? 2. All I see here conceptually is hea

If this technology truly can reduce the cost of tunnel boring by a factor of ten, subway systems can be created in many more cities and existing systems updated with a thicker network. I also wonder if, because of the smaller diameter of th

Do you believe the author would have been able to expose the lazy and dishonest behavior of a journal like this with a paper that was plainly satirical to a layperson? It has to walk the line in a way to show that the journal purports to co

Humor aside, one wonders how much increased communication could facilitate common malware usage between the CIA, NSA, etc. If some common malware were developed and distributed agnostic to foreign or domestic targets, it could be a conduit

Yup, any destructive production change, I always bring in another engineer as a lifeguard. Call out the environment you're on, the machine you're shelled into, and the action you're performing. Can even be an engineering-adja

At their proposed scale, yes. There's another version of reality where Uber can massively scale back and become profitable, but that screws over a ton of investors, and causes an almost complete turnover. At that point, Uber is a much

I agree with respect to the behavior of boards, but the public relations imbroglio could prompt a more rash action. Interim executives could perform his duties for 3-6 months. I believe that. To me, that the perception of Uber as a toxic co

Congrats to the Heroku team for pushing forward with this. While it's not attractive to this Heroku customer due to my preference for CI solutions that are agnostic to the rest of the deployment workflow, I'm sure this is a great

Time management, to me, is a more powerful "skill up" than anything that could keep your GitHub green. When you know you have limited hours in the day and you have hard time commitments, you have no choice but to learn and work ef

To me this was apparent in their corporate rebrand as Snap Inc. Threading the needle and parlaying your hype into a diversified, profitable holdings corp is the formula they seem to be following. IMO Amazon got there naturally, FB took big,
