Yeah, I want more details. It claims that Facebook specifically did not advertise some roles on its careers website, which led to these specific roles having ~0 US applications. Whereas most other roles have hundreds of US applications. Wha

Yes, it’s extremely infuriating, this has soured my day. The millionaire lobbyist birthday party, the $350 and up plating, the enclosed space, no masks, the other lobbyist guests. It makes it pretty hard to believe they are thinking about t

How much capital does the high stock price give to Tesla? Making cars is capital intensive. Is the valuation self fulfilling - does the extremely high valuation give them capital to help them get closer to the valuation?

Yes, this is exactly what I meant. It’s just missing the fact that the popularity of posting S-1’s in general might be changing so charting the # of posts may be different than the real # of “tech ipos”

Yes, the key is to at least be aware of it. I bet there is a non-insignificant amount of existing endpoints out there that could easily be improved a large percent if someone actually took the time to profile it. Just from the shifting code

It would be like adding 8 uteri, if your requirements are “give me x babies per second” In both cases you can get 9 babies in 9 months, and can support the same amount of baby throughput. But in the 1 month gestation case, you only need to

Why does Triplebyte seem to be doing great, while Hired is shutting down? They seem pretty similar in concept. What’s the key difference?

Is there any change in the number of tech IPOs specifically?

This is a contradiction - if the number of transactions isn’t increasing, and mew addresses are created from every transaction, then the number of mew addresses shouldn’t be increasing. So something most be changing - either wallet software

I do something similarish - if a book comes to mind, find it on “the internet” right away. Buy the physical book if I like the first chapter or two.

Not tangentially; per the article “And it's amusing to see [Apple using new emojis]( https://www.engadget.com/2017-10-31-apple-ios-11-1-new-emoji... ) as a carrot to get people to install the latest security patches.”

Whats the argument here? Most people would agree that what Google is doing is also immoral. But ignoring that, I don't see the equivalency - you are paying Google to prevent someone else from paying them more and showing up above you;

Still, if this is as obviously illegal as most people here are claiming it is, wouldn't a law firm take the case for free in exchange for a percentage of the fee Yelp will need to pay?

That was the intention of things like https://nano.org/ . If merchants started offering products 3-5% off for paying with crypto, they would probably come out ahead.
