I am the OP. I think it was because I was an overseas employee and the founders just didn't shell out equity to people who were not based out of US. I saw the equity distribution sheet that was disclosed after the acquisition as part o

Yep, very common. Even companies with upfront pricing (like AWS) will give custom discounts to enterprise users. And for Startups, it's not uncommon to give discounts because sometimes you just want the logo.

I think up until now we have been at a point where industry has been growing (big companies getting bigger, lots more startups) enough that there's enough jobs for experienced folks (more managers, ICs, VPs) But I wonder what happens i

I think what you are answering is how a REPL works, the question is around running generic code in isolated/sanboxed environment.

I agree with you when you say in most companies "languages for teams" means "languages for the JVM" But I am curious, is that just out of familiarity or are there things that JVM ecosystem has that are just not there els

There are languages for teams, and than there are languages for individuals. Kotlin is a great language for individual productivity, but _can_ be terrible for teams. You can do the same thing in Kotlin in so many different ways that it make

I think Notion tries to do too much (a database? really?) and because of that it's not _great_ at any. Yes, at the end of it you can end up with pretty looking pages but the process is not fun. For example, you _can_ use Notion as Trel

Assuming what that article says is correct, that it isn't natural - what's the solution to this? Surely, everyone can't be a startup founder. Just curious how the world should work for that article to not exist.

Don't think it was a QA. https://techcrunch.com/2018/12/10/report-a-manager-at-ubers-... Also, when it comes to things like Self Driving, the line between a QA/dev is really not there. Both of them

Really digging the design. Feels extremely light and calm. Although, all those animations might get a little annoying with everything transitioning-in the page. Good work, though!

My experience has been different. "Academic Studying" can be hard with a full time job, and there is often a wide gap between what you learn in books and what you do at the job. For purely professional purposes, it's probably

This looks great! That's how I (and I assume many others) actually visualize arrays for certain algorithms.

My only advice to reviewers is: If you say "do X", also explain the "Why?" behind it. Other than my only advice, these points are also helpful: - Zero Code Style, Formatting Comments should be allowed on reviews. If it p

Don't worry, it's completely normal. First few months can be hard. Especially if it's a Amazon where they will have no team specific on-boarding. I guess your best bet is to try to get help from peers, go for lunch with them

Yeah, I also compared against GitUp, which I use currently, and I think I'll be sticking to it.

This is kinda unrelated. But I am _very_ new to Go. If one were to start a serious project with Go in 2018, what's the recommended way? Are people using Go modules? How to deal with 3rd party deps which dont have go.mod files? When I p

There's only one purpose of good brand identity and that's to be remembered. I don't see how this is more memorable than the beloved Gopher. Edit: Gopher is still the official mascot, though. So that's good.

I remember when Insta was "newer", people used to comment on how much nicer it made them feel compared to Facebook. I also felt that same. But I guess beyond a point, all social networks turn into bit of a rat-race, which also rem

Companies like Instagram/Quora have written about having multiple releases per hour. Basically, every 'git push' is a release if the tests pass. So, the model works for consumer companies to some extent (at least on the backe

One reason why Google seems to do better is because it knows more about me. For example when I search for "reverse a LL" shows me reversing linked list on Google (which is what I intended) but something completely else on DDG. May

Thanks for the read, Dipankar! Yeah, RethinkDB is definitely great for realtime functionality. However, with this the aim is to make your existing databases like DynamoDB, Mongo etc realtime.
