The navigation and maps UI works great. The traffic data and routing based on traffic is bad. 80%+ of the time if I’m using maps it’s simply to find the fastest route and it’s not been good for that.

As a happy Rivian R1T owner and a “product guy” I’ve been really impressed with what they’ve done from a product perspective. The truck is awesome. You can tell they spent the time from initial prototyping to getting to production just hamm

Twitter/X is just catching up - not leading the way. YouTube, Instagram, TikTok all have ad sharing for a long time.

I’ve had enough deliveries where the person making the drop off isn’t the person on the app (wrong gender often) to think there’s a pretty heavy trade or even loaning of accounts enough so that these guys may have had a large stable of cour

Ah that makes sense. That might explain why Apple won’t deactivate it. They don’t have a way of knowing if the OP sold it to someone and “stole” it back. If the guy who got is legit OP may want to reach back out to that guy and ask him if t

I'm a bit confused These statements seem to contradict themselves? The only time the GP is false is when companies are reinvesting profits in a way that makes it look like costs. (GP said profits are more important) But relative cha

No. It’s not. The only time that’s true is if your revenues are flat year over year.

What a sensational way to write this headline. Focusing on profits vs the 11% decline in revenues which is a more salient number.

Um. Cloudflare stream starts at $5 per month and you don’t pay for encoding only storage and bandwidth. You can serve a decent video library for $500 per month. https://www.cloudflare.com/products/cloudflare-stream&#x2

I would like to know what the costs come out to per minute of video encoded and how many outputs they're getting in order to compare this to something like Media Convert (AWS), Google Transcode or something dedicated like Mux. For refe

I appreciate the candor there. I also appreciate a founder “changing his mind” The old maxim of “Hire slow, fire quickly” rarely hits the C-suite it seems. It’s almost refreshing seeing it. Of course he probably has a massive parachute to

Also wealth management is more focused on wealth preservation than generating high returns, that is more the focus of asset management (e.g. hedge funds, private equity etc.). This is a bit simplistic. It’s more focused on setting a targe

I'm more thinking of HR then the real estate. Brewers in SF are going to need to get paid a lot more then folks in Colorado or the South.

by mikeryan 3y ago
I’ve followed this a bit. One take I’ve heard is that one reason Sapporo is shuttering the brewery instead of selling it is that the Union agreements make it difficult to sell. It can’t be cheap having a brewery in prime SF. It would certa

This is in reference to a different suit. It’s for Elons comp package not the boards comp. Even in regards to the boards comp they were stock options not stock so the compensation is based on the option strike price not just appreciation.

There’s two aspects to this ruling. The first is the “commonly used technology” but the second is the “expectation of privacy”. The Wi-Fi in a house thing may pass the bar for tech but doesn’t pass the bar w/r/t your expectation o
