maybe this is old information but I thought it sent information back to Kite? This article is old but for what it's worth: https://qz.com/1043614/this-startup-learned-the-hard-way-tha...

Precisely! Albeit I am a bit surprised our infosec team seemingly haven't cracked down or made a stance just yet on Kite and other telemetry software for developers. That day will come soon I am sure :)

I am not sure how you are the top comment when you are complaining about issues that generally are not relevant to the post, you didn't explain your "extinguished" shares, and you do not explain why it would not be worth it t

I have little clout but as an American who visited for 2 weeks during the whole Snowden ordeal I felt it kinda "meh" looking at the place through expatriation goggles at the time. Quito is a very religious and conservative city, B

Removing SSH should be the goal though. If you follow the old Visible Ops book you also "Electrify the Fence" and introduce accountability, etc. If your goal is to see what a process is doing introduce tracing. If you need to add

Wait. Even if you have access to the device how do you get app-to-app access of the underlying texts unless there is a hack unknown to Apple. I know there are barriers Apple has built in where developers cannot access the text messages beca

I think you may still be missing the point. What is the harm in completely ignoring the stock options and negotiating strictly on base pay. I think stock options for the most part should be considered like free snacks in the workplace. &quo

There was a recent NPR segment highlighting also a program of Sweden for entrepreneurship of a six-month-leave where your job would be saved for you while you pursued a startup or business venture as well but I forget the name of the progra

well think of the other possibly bigger perk: they get your business and loyalty again in the future at a discount since the card was given as an enticing amount (e.g. "$50" but after markup is only really $28 to the business).

You said nothing that wasn't painfully obvious. My point is to build the backend right so you don't have to rewrite it again later. The time investment in the beginning will pay dividends as you scale (unless you are just mocking

I would say from what I have seen in articles surfacing now and then that the NBA has some of the best data analysis and breakdown of players and such. You might look into the companies or efforts doing this for an analog. These guys (Spor
