It would be a circuitous route to take the Altamont pass, then go south to San Jose, and up the Peninsula to SF. The plan is to use the Caltrain tracks to travel between San Jose and SF.

I think that's the opposite of Dunning-Kruger. The Dunning-Kruger effect describes people who don't know very much, but think they know a lot.

I would postpone the interview. Give yourself at least 2 months to study this stuff. If you can't postpone it, then I would go ahead and do the interview anyway. There are some good suggestions below, try to spend at least a few hours

Can you explain why you think that pensions and social security are Pyramid schemes. I view them more like insurance, but maybe you have an insight that I don't have.

by mateo411 8y ago
It doesn't make sense to do that. You grandfather in the existing pensions, and switch the incoming teachers to a 401K.

Yes, there are plenty of restaurants in SOMA. Eating there is a much better plan than traveling the maximum distance while staying in San Francisco.

You could drive diagonally across town. What if I work in SOMA and want to have lunch in Park Merced?

This is true. The biggest risk with buying is that there could be a recession in the near future and you will be unemployed.

It's very unlikely that it will be 20 million. However, it's likely that it will be worth around 4 million. That would be a 7 percent year over year growth.

>inciteful This is a very interesting word. I think you mean insightful, which is what people usually use to describe a clever or novel thought. I've never seen the word inciteful before, but that would probably mean something that

I like how you brought up all of those examples for means of discovery. However, I think that almost all of those are a form of advertising. Perhaps the forum where people are giving advice would not be advertising. If any of these are on t

Yes, they measure the conversion rate of the ad campaign. If you bought the Gravity Blanket, then you were part of the cohort that converted.

I've string interpolated SQL queries before... I know I'll only do this for internal apps, not for anything on the public internet. This is not a good practice.

by mateo411 8y ago
I prefer the control of writing SQL too. However, you have to be careful of SQL injection attacks. Honestly, if you are developing a web app, when you have it working, part of the routine should be to look at the SQL queries for each operat

You are correct. Mountain View recently added rent control.

by mateo411 8y ago
There is rent control in East Palo Alto. However, every other city on the Peninsula does not have rent control.

>IMO, a better idea is to open an offshore center and fester a culture that you want. You want to replace the word fester with foster. Fester has a negative connotation.

I think the reason the Boston is not more of a tech center is that MA law supports no compete clauses as condition for employment. CA has high housing prices where the tech industry is located. However, CA does not support no compete clause

I am not a lawyer, but I think that learned or aggregated data should be fine, however hashed identifiable data is not OK. Identifiable data includes IP addresses and mobile device ids.
