So something like sandstorm with an autoscaler?

I wish iOS autolayout wasn't n^2. You have to realize these algorithms have very small time budgets and you can start seeing stutters when you use them in things like UICollectionViews and UITableViews and other scrolling / gestu

Your forgetting last mile times in that calculation. If you lived in pittsburgh it's unlikely you'll be living by the BART station, which means an extra 10-20m on your commute.

A bunch of them: 1. Live with roommates. 2. Commute from somewhere cheaper 3. Have rent controlled apartments. Rent controlled apartments from even 2 or 3 years ago are significantly cheaper. 4. Are dual high income couples 5. Own a place

Constraint layout systems are O(n^2) algorithms, while a procedural layout algo can be O(1) or O(n). I think out of practicality it wasn't adopted. It would be better if both were available, but such is life. http://floria

The kind of density you get in European towns built in the 1890s were higher than the typical SFH or 4 story max zoning limits in many places experiencing housing crises today. If SF was rows and rows of 6-8 story buildings instead of being

For public companies it doesn't matter because there is immediate liquidity to cover options. Their vesting periods are often even shorter at 6 months and they tend to not even bother with options and just give you stock units directl

I'm starting to have the feeling that those very early employees are about equivalent to an angel investor, and they should be getting some sort of angel investor equivalent terms. Otherwise once people really start realizing the negat

Now? Go shop around ESO fund, snow ventures, standard VCs, angels, etc and ask them to make a deal to help buy out your stock. If they say no, maybe your company isn't doing as well as you think it is or your company is too small. Us

Founders are committed, but usually have better cash out options than employees do in the middle of the process. There are founders get millions of dollars during later funding rounds to incentivize them to not take early buy out options by

Another way to look at it is checksumming is something that should be done at a generic lower level block layer, not the filesystem layer. Do it in CoreStorage, not filesystem X.

"Luxury" housing isn't that luxury. It might be a difference of $30k in interior materials, but lets them set a far higher initial price point. The actual expensive stuff, like the building structure itself, foundation, elev

Management should not do this because it makes it harder to hire at all stages of the company until it's liquid. And founders know how fucking hard it's to hire in general. If you fuck over early employees, what prevents you from

Don't do options, just give the employees the stock and you eat the tax bill. If that tax bill becomes too large to be worth it, then it's time to give your employees RSUs. But you say, how about vesting and such? It's a was

It's definitely a great business case study. Most people don't get exposed to this kind of stuff.

It trimmed the most recent employees, who decided to take the job after rejecting other job offers. Hiring 60 people in one year and then firing 10 of them in less than a year isn't nice and it doesn't feel nice. It's defin

If they have a call option on your stock (read your agreement), they're still not "yours". And it's for a private company you have no control over and probably no anti-dilution clauses on either.

Netflix total compensation seems to match places like google, apple and facebook, but with a sword damoceles waiting to fire you. That feels like a net negative.

Pension funds and others do invest in these large companies, and that money does effect a lot of other people.

You have to immigrate like all the other immigrants, but since you are German, the permanent resident quota is barely used for your nationality. The USA creates a quota system for green cards and then splits them up on a nationality basis.

Companies also hire higher level positions above current employees all the time. I don't know the details that would make them need to only replace one employee instead of getting another employee but that would've been another s
