High Output Management was an interesting read. Grove took timeless computer architecture techniques and mapped it onto management.

I believe in your apology, and thank you for trying to make things right. Everyone makes mistakes. What's done is done. We can only learn from it. It's easy to become emotional and protective of a project you've poured blood

This is a PR disaster. It's really hard to put a finger on who is in the wrong, because both the former intern(FI) and CEO screwed up. Out of so many things to build that could be fun, it's wrong to build something that you worked

These are great ideas. You should shoot the higher ups an email and a link to the thread. Your suggestions seem like a win win for Github and the hardworking OSS maintainers.

A lot of these comments are not fond of the author's arrogance... Which seems to be a little nitpicky. The techniques won't work if you use them verbatim because someone else who has read the book will recognize it. He simplifies

Funny story, i used to ask my interviewers for advice. CEOs told me to generalize and learn a bit of everything. Senior engineers told me to specialize. It really depends on what kind of roles you want next.

xvector - thank you for trying to explain crypto and its main pros here. I think some people won't still be convinced... We will have to see what happens 10 years from now. There are equally good defenders from both sides. Buffett and

Hacker news is extremely anti crypto. I wonder if many folks actually made a peer to peer crypto transaction without an exchange, sat down, and thought about the implications. It didn't click for me until I did it. Once you think about

Shannon was awesome. It seemed like after he wrote his groundbreaking information theory paper he did whatever the hell he wanted for the rest of his life in Cambridge. Made all kinds of contraptions and devices.

You're right. The content to length ratio is extremely low for this blog post. I didn't see clear structure or fully fleshed out arguments.

I am deleting my account also. Why do they insist on doing this crap that really hurts their reputation? Cmon. It's your users that helped you get the recruiting fees and put you on the map. Don't go around backstabbing us and dis

Right to repair needs to be preserved if we want to have the next generation of hackers and engineers. A good chunk of learning happens when you break apart devices and put them back together, or fix them yourself. You screw up, and learn d

Here are my thoughts. I like the simplicity of the UI, and it's pretty snappy. I've done 2 of the quizzes, and they are pretty fair. As expected I've forgotten a lot so I will have to review. Other thoughts: - I thought the s

I will definitely check it out and give you feedback. A service like this is definitely something I might have benefited while I was struggling in a low income household in an extremely high cost of living area. It wouldn't have to be

You're absolutely right. I think the biggest barrier would be brushing up on these topics. I haven't touched these subjects in 5+ years. Teaching requires one more plane of understanding.

Comparing yourself to someone else is a complete waste of time. You can never be that person with the exact environment they grew up in, let alone your genetic makeup. You do you, Set your own goals, and work to make today your best day.

This is spot on. Other than Coinbase(which is very risky), the overall financial statements of companies going public don't have great revenue growth and almost no shareholder's equity.

This. If you look at the financials of all companies listing their stock almost all of them have really bad financials.

Can you go wrong with a professor that says, "I fucking love databases"? His videos are top notch. Passion creates good quality.

That was what was going through my mind too! What makes it so fascinating compared to other beautiful structures?

Haha I love this. If we think about it in terms of pure game play, medicine is a part of the game where the strategy is to take on a massive amount of debt, high risk and uncertainty for incredible returns.

Nix sounds great in theory, but it's just not there yet unfortunately. I tried it out but there were just too many workaround to setup my work environment.

They should keep it instead of trying to avoid offending people. People take things too seriously. When else are you going to have fun saying, I'm working on the CoQ have an awkward stare, and then laugh about it? We already have CoC f

I really love the idea of self-hosting, but man, you have to go through 9 layers of configuration hell and come back out alive. It's not necessarily fun programming - more of changing variables and running commands, which you might get
