Many people take the jobs they're lucky to find. They're lucky they have a job at all, or two if that's what they need. You should go take a walk down a not so nice street and let all the people you see there know how much mo

Exercise is important, but your comment is so full of smug "look why can't everyone be as awesome as me" that it really turned me off to any point you were trying to make. Not everyone is rich enough to have the time to exerc

Anecdotally I have found Lyft's tech to just be abysmal. Lyft line for example instructed the driver on a packed freeway we've spent what felt like a good 30 minutes slogging through just before the last exit over a bridge to go a

I'd be more likely to share this with my team if they didn't have a recruiting pitch in there. I have a (probably irrational) fear of people abandoning the team for some new shiny thing. Just a thought. It's a great writeup o

No, bitcoin is not subsidizing Chinese energy. They're paying for the energy being used at the price it costs to use it. I imagine the amount of energy used to mine in China is not a significant fraction of the overall energy productio

It's all about who's on their board and who they've raised money from. If they have relevant industry expertise on their board and have raised money from smart investors like sequoia they probably have real tech. If they have

The problem is that Equifax put within webserver's reach information that had no business being there. Apache Strut's vulnerability is unfortunate, but it shouldn't have been the keys to the kingdom, where the kingdom is the

Heh, I started a bad cough last week and an xray found pulmonary nodules and my doctor ordered ct scans on Friday. Waiting on the results now. My cough seems to be getting better, but not a fun process. I don't know how it could be mad

This is really neat! Also if you want to learn to build a computer from scratch without hardware, just to learn how computers work, The Elements of Computing Systems is a great book to check out. It's used as a text in some CS programs

I find it interesting to see the difference. I moved from San Jose to work in the city 8 years ago and to me, anecdotally, it's always felt like that was a trend, startups were coming to SF and so was the talent and that "silicon
