As an ios mobile dev, I get jealous of my fellow android dev's ability to roll out updates incrementally and to publish updates immediately. With a cloud model, you don't have the possibility of bricking your customer's devi

It's about specs, budget and liability. Most people are engineering software tents and art pieces, because that is what the market wants and demands. They don't want to pay the price for non-tents. There is nothing wrong with

In software it sometimes means overcomplicated for the scope that delivers little value but high cost in usage due to the complexity. Think J2EE and their xml config files. Or using hadoop and kubernetes when a sqllite db on digital ocean

They could side step to corporate slack on-prem chat style solutions and be a pretty strong contender. They were scaling huge chat rooms and such way better than slack was a year ago. But they seem to refuse suggestions to do so continuou

Uber itself has a network effect. The more riders there are, the more drivers you induce via price demand. With a large amount of drivers, you have quicker pickup times due to more drivers. With a large enough amount of demand, you make

Did your clothing smell then? You seemed to be implying you had a strong odor in your previous posts.

It's about the personal calculus. It's easy to move to the US for work, if crap really hits the fan they can move back. The actual likelihood of that happening is minor, and if your young then it's rational to live in the U

People complain about their costs going up, just like most people complain about their rent / housing costs going up.

I sounds like a useful super-blame, but I would still use a VCS. It's so easy!

Americans don't have universal healthcare, can't just go walk in some clinic / pharmacy and get a doctor / pharmacist to Rx you some birth control. You also have minimal->zero private money and come from a poor backgr

Why buy a gopro when a $100 china commodity clone will do good enough? The sensors & lenses are going to be the same size, from sony and rubber gaskets with a hard plastic shell is not hard to do.

I do something similar with chrome users. I like it better because each 'user' is a separate window and I can color scheme which one i'm in with browser themes. The setup takes a while initially although. Having multiple co

A smart thermostat can cycle a furnace on & off at high frequency and cause it to break down. Same with smart light controls. If there are specific models that burst into flames when you do this, then you can cause half a town to catc

Maybe the could make our PG&E bills not be (very quickly) .30/kwh and instead follow the .12/kwh average of the USA during these peak times.

SF stays manageably temperate, while LA & SD get really hot for several months. If SF is too cold for a day, you can go hop a ride on bart and hang around the warmer east bay for however longer you want to. Getting only down to 50F max

People in their mid thirties don't want to work at startup lottery anymore. And not many south bay startups are offering something materially different than working at google. They have done the math and realized that %99 of the time

SF attitudes towards certain behaviors make hard to do what most cities do, which is arrest these people and make them go somewhere out of sight. There are cleaning staff going through the area cleaning stuff up. But people still are doing

The first few years of childhood are absolutely time consuming. You have less and less obligations as they get older and reach teenagehood. They want to spend less time with you!

I would think mobile actually favors older people with C++ experience a bit more, since iOS dev does not have garbage collection and doing C type of things can be useful in iOS dev. iOS dev I think wont go PHP level because of the difficul
