It is unsustainable. Currently housing is priced as if it was going to increase 10% a year forever (and if that is not the case, you are almost always better off renting right now). There are multiple factors that pushed the prices artifici

YES! It is about time that realtors get disrupted. They take 6% out of most housing transactions and add very little value. They managed to put themselves in the critical path by lobbying and regulatory capture. You don't get access to

I will echo this. The only things top school really do is gate-keep who is allowed to get in, providing as a consequence some sense of exclusivity. The quality of education does not seem to be that different. And even if it was, it doesn&#x

yeah, that's what I'm doing now as well. A couple days ago from one part of SF to another: - Uber: 2 Miles, 25$, 16 minutes (doesn't include the subtle lying on waiting time). - Walking: 2 Miles, 0$, 30 minutes, healthier.

I take Uber a couple times a year (when there are no other alternatives). I always chat with the driver and ask how much he is making out of that ride. I have seen absolutely astonishing price differences. Coming back from SFO to south bay

that was for a different ride. The comparison was with 113$. >>> ”I got in the Uber to go to JFK. I was on my phone so I wasn’t paying attention. When I got to JFK, I looked to see what the price was to see what I’d tip. I saw $113

I always found it interesting that almost every EV in real-life exceeds their EPA range, while Tesla in real-life cannot even get close. I would not be surprised that Tesla over-optimized everything with the EPA test as an utility functio

Fully agree with this. I have used GKE at scale as an example. It starts to break down significantly once your cluster reaches a couple hundred nodes. Only way to solve it is to have support resize your controller nodes manually. And as sup

Oxide is an HN darling. I have never seen anything even close to negative about them here. I hope someone writes a case-study about this. It seems to be a mix of the charisma of the team/founders and their product that makes everyone l

We are using istio at scale. I have a love-hate relationship with it. It is very complex and builds on 5 other layer of abstraction (K8s, Envoy, Iptables,...). Grasping what is going on requires you to understand all of those layers first.
