Left what I would consider a big company for a < 10 person startup. I couldn't be happier. I honestly don't care that I had to take a paycut for it.

I should've made more of an effort to separate my two points. You are indeed correct. I still have issue with putting words into Steve Job's mouth w/o permission from his estate. I think the bigger issue is including someo

While impressive, I think it is extremely bothersome. Did you get JRE's permission or the family of Steve Job's permission to do this? Considering how much news/social media/blogs like to cut and paste one-liners taken

This is really cool. I was on a team for the first and second DARPA Grand Challenge. The teams (like ours) who had to use actuators, pistons, gears oh-my for steering, acceleration, braking were at a huge disadvantage compared to the teams

Software vendors lie. Even open source ones. In some cases they get REALLY close to the truth, but aren't forthcoming with that last 1% case where their statement becomes a lie. If you want to see a ton of lies, go and start reading

That's not my experience on HN, or with tech folks in general. There will be a long article about some particularly hard thing, be it energy storage, GPS, or cat food can design, and comments will roll in, "simply do X".

I don't know where you got that from my reply. I was simply answering the question of why people stay at Google if they are evil. I was answering the retention question only.

Money. As soon as a lot of people leave a team or location in Google, Google responds by giving everyone bonuses. When a bunch of people started quitting from the Boulder office a few (5?) years back, they offered to send everyone on a tri

Footprint ends up being the hard part. Do you have room for 4, 8, 16, 32 panels? Sometimes a couple of panels on motors are all you have room for.
77.
by nosequel 5y ago
Most big installs have motors. The motors don't take much power to slowly move the panels through the day. The downside is the extra expense of the motors and setup.

I never put my GPA on any resume. I had a garbage GPA because the only classes I went to were CS classes so I got horrible grades in all my required electives. I was worried someone would ask and no one did.

No living trees that I didn't plant myself. The fire was so hot all the seeds died as well. So the idea that a new forest would spring up from the ashes was sort of wishful thinking.

I appreciate you defending this position. I bought 50 acres of land burned in a very hot forest fire 9 years ago. While there is some grass and some bushes around, the 50 acres of trees have now all fallen by now and are rotting. Some of

That's correct, China just poaches the tech when it lands on their soil without paying a thing. At least Apple pays those they've poached a salary.

It's not just handling false information. That is just a very small part of how the far left are trying to stop freedom of speech. How many in-person talks at universities have been shut down in the past 4 years? When people disagree
