50% dip is a hell of a lot better than 40% inflation each year in Argentina year over year. In Venezuela is disgusting, over 1,000% inflation each year.

Generation of new coins is transparent, the total number of coins capped. That’s predictability. Name one other asset on earth that is easily transferable and more predictable in that sense?

Very cool to see that Scala continues to have a huge impact on Java’s roadmap. Records and Sealed Classes are borrowed from Scala. Could be not the best news for new Scala adoption, but good news for developers having better abstractions in

Oh boy for an article about how the media has it wrong, this guys says $600 govt handouts are what is causing the investment, and young folks who lost their jobs are the main folks on Reddit. Yikes, I’m sure the average person on wallstreet

Couldn’t agree more. The author cites no compelling trend that ML is stagnating, esp relative to other disciplines. I’d also add: is it BAD if universities are churning out highly skilled workers when there is high demand for them? This see

Such clickbait Simple math states that not everyone can be a leader. 1 leader needs more than 1 “followers”, hence only a tiny subset of people become leaders. People can come up with all sorts of way that might increase their or their kid

Startups have to, generally, become pretty large in size. So the message seems to be: better to be on top of the pyramid in the early days than in the middle of some large pyramid. Well duh, but that’s not scalable by design. Only so few pe

Most “Super Senior Principal” engineers I see at larger companies are ones that have been there for 5+ yrs, so I disagree that the best engineers always run to greener pastures.

Disagree, many companies have a way for engineers to pivot into product. The hardest part is having a frank conversation with your manager. I’ve seen many engineers become PMs within the same company

Lol As a senior engineer at a big tech co, can agree with this. I switched teams recently and the new manager asked me what my career plans were and said “oh you think the packet you made to get a senior level is big, a staff eng needs lik

Sears took the same approach starting over 100yrs ago of bundling a bunch of disparate services - clothes, tires, appliances, etc. At the time it seemed equally all consuming. We’re basically seeing another iteration of this now with Amazo
