So you had a google account @yourdomain.com as a Google (and GMail?) account but later left GMail? Did you delete your Google account or just disassociate it with GMail? I haven’t heard of this but I can see how it could happen depending on

Can you expand on what HIPAA compliance you’re looking for? HIPPA compliance is something that’s come up but not something I’ve dove into understanding yet. You can add an alias to a group today but perhaps you’re talking about something el

I was hoping for some evidence that we are that close. Her answer sounded more like a sales pitch that hit on all the buzz around autonomous vehicles. Is there any doubt that Waymo is the furthest along here?

I have an account and it's up to $2k in under a year. I think I have an automated $100/month deposit too. It's money I don't notice missing that's bring saved. It's not a lot but it's easy and a lot better

You're right. My guess is that on average a 40yo needs 2x the pay and brings 1.5x the value. So it's maybe not so drastic and there are benefits of hiring older developers (stay around longer, more reliable, etc).

Sure, a team full of 25 year olds probably isn't the best idea. But a 40 year old lead with 10 devs who are 25 year olds is reasonable. The latter does not dispute the OP.

I'm really not trying to be dismissive here...but I think you're pointing out exceptions and not the rule. The vast majority of software jobs don't need 20 years of experience. 5-10 years is plenty. > Programming proficien

Problem is that a 40yo dev needs 2x the pay of a 20yo but doesn't bring 2x the value. Unless you're highly specialized then you run out of options as you become an older programmer. The market size of "specialized programmers

I don't think that's what a typical software engineer makes. A Level 5 SWE at Google makes that. But that is far from representative of the vast majority of SWEs. More likely, you can afford a $1m mortgage on a double income of $1

Thanks. Making it more valuable is what I was getting at. I think more time spent with me or my wife doing what they want would help too. Interesting point on finishing what you start in relation to a limited quantity of time. I'll hav

This would be a really big time saver. I'd say that Travis fails on 10-20% of PRs which pass locally. The main reasons are that I don't run tests locally across different Python versions and my local OS is different from what Trav

I'm a big proponent of local software but the problem with Apple/iPhoto is that everything is stored in a proprietary database. I think a good compromise is smarts in the cloud vs. local copy. I do this with Google Photos / G
