That’s fine. I’d rather use Airflow than Luigi, BigQuery/Snowfake over Hive. Evolution is generally good. So, yes, within a discipline there is more than one tool, but often only 1 or 2 current tools that are mature and worth using if

Established companies with opinionated infrastructure can help with this. I sure wouldn’t want to write the backend of a crud app in Fortran, nor the front end. Or do anything with Fortran besides scientific computing (Fortran = Formula Tr

So, AWS but worse? AWS has many products, and Stripe cannot avoid have many different products. Making it more clear how many products your using should be easier (much like AWS does)…I can see it being a little harder when one product is a

Counterpoint: if the company actually had good upper management, they will only let the mid level managers grow their team if it brings value to the company. No org is perfect, but I keep seeing this take again and again and again, yet rare

Interesting…maybe we should normalize/de-stigmatize Dev tooling companies to have a ceo who is an eng for the first ~ 3 yrs, and then hiring a replacement (maybe even some early “vp of product person”) There are probably so many good

Ah yeah, sorry I gave more details of my view in this other post very shortly after posting here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32218383 Was getting my two posts confused.

I don’t see how this contradicts anything I said, if that’s what you’re alluding to. Zoning laws would be part of increasing supply, for instance. The govt has only focused on tweaking demand, not supply

The US hasn’t done jack shit for the supply lately. The doom cycle of the last 50 years: - Fed lowers interest rates to increase demand. Prices go up, only the most well off can afford. - Fed goes back to increasing rates again. Demand go

Interest rates are the real cause IMO. Sadly, there are still a lot of rich people with money to burn on real estate, but the rates are now what is stopping them. Prices would still be going up and up if The Fed didn’t jump in to hike rates

That is true, esp with Michael Saylors comment about mortgage your house to buy buy BTC…I am pro BTC, but that is utterly horrible advice. That is indeed buried relative to many other points

I’d rather this be “stop saying that XYZ will go to the moon, guaranteed money” not discouraging actually good advice “don’t invest more you can lose”. The real grift is all the false hope masked as certainty…and I say this as someone is i

Really??? It crashed 70-80% in 2018 And then later went way above the 2017 peak. It is not guaranteed to recover, but it is FAR from certain that it won’t, and history suggests it will recover
