I wonder what is the the absolute bare minimum to run a company like Twitter. I'm assuming that some of the positions eliminated could be replaced by outside services, like payroll and accounting, but how few people could you have on a

I'm from Los Angeles, where car culture reigns supreme. I suppose the equivalent would be eating in the car versus sitting alone in a restaurant or at your desk at work.

I could imagine the switch being very difficult at an existing company, but if a startup implemented cloud dev environments from day one, it would be baked into their DNA. When I worked as a contractor, the biggest when starting a new clien

The time and effort I'd have to put in to make it successful would interfere with the stability of working for Disney. In my 40s with a family, mortgage, etc., stability is more important. I do wish I had been more serious about starti

When there is nothing to be gained from guessing the random number (to the point where you could just hardcode it, then it is safe to use a weak random number generator. Examples would be randomizing background images in a website header or

What type of recruiter? If it is a recruiter from a recruiting firm then be honest about your number. They want to place you and they get paid based on the salary you get. I have had these recruiters tell me my number was too low and the co

Like I said, if the domain is super specific, it is solvable. That Taco Bell example is real. A private equity company was considering purchasing them from Yum Brands and they wanted to know what the customers liked or disliked. If all of y

I left Cameo 6 months ago because I knew this day was coming. $100M investment and unicorn status were the worst thing to happen to the company. It comes with expectations that you keep growing headcount and revenue. But they were extrapola
