You could say that, but you'd be ignoring the fact that the Yemeni civil war is a proxy war between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and that the U.S. is the one backing, funding, and selling arms to Saudi Arabia to use in the war. It is also pr

It'd be great to read the arguments against making them public. There's good reasons why we should make them public available here: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/14/business/yourtaxes/

We use Snowflake. It's been great. We use Fivetran for loading into it. For reporting, we use Looker. We used to use Vertica + Tungsten. It was a brittle combo and also not well supported by HP.

That's not how it works with New Story as they are not putting their own operating funds towards funding houses. It'd be odd and a question in the auditing process if a non-profit operated the way you described.

I think there is more information that is let on here. I've talked with some folks at prominent bootcamps who are likely to be shutting their doors or hard pivoting soon if their revenue situation doesn't drastically improve.

I think you are being unfairly downvoted for your opinion. I upvoted you though I disagree. I'd like to know, how do you feel about the legality of cigarettes and alcohol. Presumably, you don't want your kids smoking cigarettes. W

Kudos to Brad. He did some machine learning work for us as well! Hope we keep seeing advances in this field.

Well, depends on what you do. Sure, it can be nice to be offline for some coding, but most work these days, even predominantly coding work, is a team affair and requires communication to work well. Further, being able to get quick access to

How's the internet there? I'd imagine that would be a significant barrier to productivity.

I don't know, I mean surely there are some network effects of the more users that are using heroin the more that safe practices are developed, shared, and (socially) enforced. It'd be interesting to see if anyone has studied that.

I think that's a fair point, but would argue that it's likely not true for a sizable amount of the population (e.g. my childhood fears have mostly left me). But further, there are lots of services which actually sell getting past

Best thing you can do is make sure the developer track is separate from the management track. Then, it just depends on the size of the company. If you have a small team, then something like: Junior -> Senior -> Principal -> Disting

Not disagreeing, but just to test this a bit. I'm in San Francisco. What's the safest and easiest way for me to go acquire Bitcoin or Ethereum right now? Note, I don't have a credit card.

Sort of. I sought a conservation easement but it wouldn't actually provide much. Out of about 150 acres, of which probably about 30-40 is lightly forested with Oaks/Pines, the tax break would only be a few thousand dollars and onl

They cite the U.S. as having 60% of purchases under $10 to be in cash. However, that should likely take in the context that many (most?) shops won't allow purchases using debit/credit cards when the purchase is < a certain mini

Did you have a way to release excess air from the hydraulic ram? I set one up with similar dimensions to what you described but it would always quit after about 15-30 minutes, presumably due to air in the line. If I evacuated the line and g

Hmm, maybe. How many people take the bar exam from non-accredited institutions? My understanding it was a much lower percentage, and if that's the case then it wouldn't weigh very much on the overall passage rate.
