This is unfortunate for him but the publicity may actually be worth it in the long run. Hopefully Lowe’s, Benjamin Moore, or Home Depot are smart enough to scoop him up.

Have you used both? I used to use Snowflake at a former company. Snowflake has top class support for semi-structured data, for example. I found it really easy to use and highly flexible/featured compared to Redshift.

A fixation on being extraordinary tends to indicate too much self absorption and a lack of perspective. It seems like another antidote is focusing more on the impact you want to have on the world and those around you, even if no one ever kn

This is cool, is the traffic curated in any way? Like if the database isn't initialized, do you start with create requests before moving on to GETs for those IDs? Also does this only support HTTP or does it support other protocols as w

I have not found etcd to be 'an absolute pleasure to work with', to put it lightly. It has been a plague of stability issues and it sometimes seems better to roll one's own than continue tracking down issue after issue in etc

> My "solution" to this problem is to carefully but fully occupy the bike lane before making such a turn. In California, that's not illegal, it's the law. It's on the driver's test. Kind of counterintuitive

I wonder if this means that Google Cloud will be more likely to be split out as its own company?

For a^3 + b^3 + c^3 = 42, You can enumerate a,b pairs and then you need to check whether the "locked in" value of c^3 is a cube. However imagine it takes 1ns to validate a given pair [a,b]. The eventual solution was [-805387388120

It's really frustrating that in so many cities, car owners are perceived to have more of a right to the road than non-car owners (aka those who take only rideshare). Roads are payed for by public subsidy and there shouldn't be spe

You might want to look into how things have played out in Seattle, where there was a recent housing construction boom. The tl;dr is that prices have come down significantly.

How is a CRISPR trial on a terminal patient any different than another experimental medical trial on that same terminal patient?

Ok, so maybe people in high cost of living areas aren't discouraged when the salary scales with their cost of living. But doesn't that effectively bias gitlab against those candidates because they have to pay them more? At some po

How is that offensive? Fit women are also flirted with more than unfit women by men of all levels of fitness. Being fit is a positive quality to look for in a mate, and it's one of the few that you can tell at first glance. Congrats on

The stories I hear from my female friends in law, medicine, non-profit, etc -- especially law -- make my experiences as a woman in tech seem downright blessed. Yet you never hear people telling women not to go into law (or whatever) due to

Without a doubt, the best book I read in 2017 was the three body problem (first in a trilogy). I actually came across it in an interview with Alina Cohen of Initialized via the 20 minute VC podcast. It intrigued me to not know what it was

The other commenter referenced growing apart as a risk, and there were definitely "growing pains" for me and my partner. But ultimately I agree with you that it is really valuable to grow through early adulthood with someone if yo

I've noticed the preferences among my male and female friends diverging over time. In college, everyone seemed to want the same thing -- a partner that was both successful and attractive. But now as we make it to our late twenties, I n

If it does work, then this is the first step to mass adoption: early adoption by the wealthy.

True but there are good taxi drivers out there too, who bought a $300k thing that is now worth nothing. Anyway that is why I said "some sympathy", because obviously the service was lacking. But I blame that more on a government re

Yes definitely agree the system was bad -- hence why I am basically a permanent Uber/Lyft customer. Doesn't mean that a fast one wasn't pulled on those who bought into it under the premise that it would be enforced.

I probably won't ever take a taxi again, but have some sympathy for the cab drivers who put their life savings in medallions. The city effectively promised them the exclusive right to give taxi rides, but didn't do anything about

I don't get this... Male engineers have kids and date too. Female employees, engineer or not, get pregnant. "As a female engineer" I would prefer if people -- including fellow women -- stopped treating us like we are some kin
