No, I disagree. Law of big numbers. Houses in Seattle area are mortgaging for 1.2M. Property taxes are low. Houses in NY are mortgaging for $500,000. Property taxes and interest rates are higher. You shouldn't apply 8% interest rate fr

Uber has entered the phase where it will begin buying outside tech for innovation while relying on lower cost engineers to hopefully keep the lights on. If they don't develop a regulatory moat themselves, you may see a new big competit

I got denied from Amazon twice, which actually turned out to be a blessing in disguise because I am now the lead dev and architect at a normal older company and I have complete freedom to deliver whatever my users ask for. I literally still

There is seemingly less and less reason for identities at all. Why should T-Mobile care who it is they are giving phone service to? As long as the bills are paid on time, it shouldn't matter. Here's my order ID and my password. An

Everything you've said indicates you are working at Amazon. Save all of the money and run away once you've lucked into a Google offer.

All telcos have to store SSNs, because most accounts are "postpaid" aka billed on the social credit of a customer. When you open a phone contract, they run your credit via SSN. Just another dumb way corps do things.
