Treasury at this time appears to be limited to businesses that serve other business, not businesses that serve end-users. Obviously there is a lot of potential overlap there, but in those situations I suspect that the "rules" wo

Okay, yes, we're on the same page. If they're not in the US though (as a Canadian), they're not a resident, and therefore not a "foreign resident". The entire situation is weird because as we both mentioned elsewher

Pardon? If you are a resident in the US, you pay taxes (whether you are a citizen or not).

Availability of your applications, and availability of the kubernetes control plane, are not typically correlated. One of the nice things about how Kubernetes orchestrates is that the master is not in the path of requests. Ie, in many sit

IIRC (from what I've heard from friends/acquaintances, so I can't guarantee this) the way that (at least some) have enforced "X only, no UberEats/etc." is by putting it in their contract and saying "we con

It kind of sounds like Josh had a number in mind, which would allow him "financial independence", and that number was 3.7M. If the investors insisted on recouping that 800k, leaving Josh with ~3M, it sounds like it wouldn't h

In this situation I think General Catalyst and Bessemer got more than 800k worth of good-will by not blocking this deal that they knew wouldn't get them the results they were originally looking for. If a single founder decides to accep

The Trump-tie aside, does anyone have a good reason why 2FA isn't absolutely enforced on all verified accounts? I can't really see a situation where the need for "authenticity" of a person/account meets the bar for

I suspect it is here on HN (or the timing is a coincidence) because it was mentioned my mitchellh as a component of what is powering the Hashicorp Cloud offerings in a comment here mid-last week.

I'm not sure I'd agree. From personal experience speaking with larger companies (not FAANG, but larger "start-up"), I was always seeing an even larger difference. Think "~150-170 in Austin, 225-250 in SF". You

You're right that they are different. Unfortunately, the terms are often used interchangeably, which makes discussions around this topic difficult to have.

It's worse than gameable; it continuous to contribute to "discrimination" based on socioeconomic class. Your exact example: If you were born into a wealth area, your family likely has extra space for you to live, and you will

by nrmitchi 6y ago
I agree with you, and honestly I should have been more clear here. I also think there are different definitions of "kid friendly". Using a Ferrari to take your 3-month-old toddler to a doctors appointment? That seems like a waste.
