Huh? Punching down has never been considered classy.

Speaking personally, I can’t do It again, if It represents an apex accomplishment of mine. My apex accomplishments, I was able to do, only because of a special confluence of factors, never to be repeated. Fortunately, this forces me to se

Yes, much harder without authority over a budget and staff.

Heroku used to cycle every dyno approximately once a day (for all I know, it still does…). Don’t ask me how I know my apps were free of memory leaks.

If you have the energy and curiosity to be an EM, please do give it a try. The industry needs compassionate and highly technical EMs.

What does engineering leadership mean to you? What factors make it easier or harder to practice engineering leadership? For me, I like having a budget and a staff - it’s way easier to influence my organization with a budget and a staff, tha

Unfortunately, the tunnel appears to have been a victim of Covid. It may never reopen.

I think I read too much into the desert. I imagined line of sight, but you didn’t imply that.

Yea, I don’t get it. I have no problem streaming 1080p movies over LTE well over 10 miles from the tower in the desert…

Not my field, but I guess it has to do with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_action (mentioned in article)

So, when you’re 10+ miles outside Ely, NV how is 5G a material improvement over LTE? I’m not understanding your point.

A clawback on vested is nuts. I’d be shocked to see that in boilerplate.

Totally. It’s really fantastic that a16z is transparent about their values. It’s safe to assume other VCs share these beliefs but choose not to disclose them.

No, a16z is very explicit about their views. This is not from Ben but from the current managing partner: > A 10-year exercise window is really a direct wealth transfer from the employees who choose to remain at the company and build futu

+1 for the playground merry-go-round (a small manual carousel) as a “litmus test” here. It’s exactly the right level of danger that kids should encounter.

Walkscore.com could be helpful. There are many wonderful walkable neighborhoods in the bay.

Google may have squatted some mindshare here by launching a product called Project Fi (later renamed to just “Google Fi”): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Fi

This is interesting and thanks for sharing. I don’t think it’s accurate to describe Yeti coolers as USA made though: https://www.allamericanmade.com/where-are-yeti-coolers-made/ For USA made, I found Cordova, which I r

Would you share a bit about your efforts to find such a plan? We other commenters are experiencing cognitive dissonance reading your comments, because in our experience, all the plans we've been on since ACA, cover an annual exam with

To be clear, the “assault” you are referencing was the hit and run. Cops attributed to unsafe speed. Has absolutely nothing to do with the cooperation we’re talking about here. Anyhow there is nuance here indeed. I have lived, biked, walk

What’s the easiest way to tell the difference between a buried-under-the-asphalt old freight line and a buried-under-the-asphalt old streetcar line?

In the Models Tested table row Power input, it’s USB-C for all of them. How come no Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

I was surprised how well treating the database as an API worked at one series A company. We had a single database schema shared by ~5 services. The coordination cost wasn’t bad, and I don’t recall any major issues. It was a big net win for

Nothing to brag about, sure, but still remarkably good in comparison with calls today. Latency aside, the quality of copper POTS was still capable of being much better than, for example, my new iPhone making cellular calls on AT&T’s net
