The large decline is from 30% growth to 2%. 30% is insane post COVID bubble. 2% is normal growth We are going back to normal. Maybe REI hired for the insane bubble continuing?

Most reports of GDP growth use "real" dollars, that is inflation adjusted. Those continue to show growth. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDPC1 I mean, the math may be a bit off since measuring GDP and mea

Almost everyone was pretty wrong about COVID, at least at some points in time. But it's very rare for anyone to admit it. I'll admit I was wrong, between sanitizing my hands when it was really in the air, to assuming the vaccines

I'm not following the details of this closely, but it sounds like he's a Democrat criticizing Democrats in SF for going to far left. Often these critiques from within the party are the best. There are lots of voices on the Repub

Maybe there's something sinister here, or maybe Cavium and other similar network chips can be used for sigint, as well as many other things. Basically these are chips designed to look at every packet and can be programmed to take acti

For sure insurance companies have a chance to act as a forcing function to drive better building codes, fuel management, etc. Those are hard things, especially for existing homes, but it's a simpler calculation for a homeowner to put

I think most if not all cloud VMs dedicate a core to you. Well, there are some that share like the T series on AWS and I think other clouds have similar, but my bet is they can put in an extra "flush" between users to prevent cros

Very possible that this is a factor, it's very hard to sort out. I see execs and investors are nervous. Is it the bullwhip effect or am I seeing a real increase or decrease? You'll know looking back in a few years!

I wonder if there is an in here for open source? At least parts of the solution? The problem seems very much to be a data problem, and a code quality problem. Maybe OSS could help with the latter at least?

All these tools seem to have terrible quality as well. I am not even qualified to speak on their security features, but they all seem to feature poor, opaque performance. Maybe it's just a symptom of all enterprise software?

Alcohol in various forms drove a lot of innovation. I can't argue against the negatives of alcohol, but it's part of our shared journey. Pasteur comes to mind, but many others.

I missed the actual takeoff on my one and only 380 flight. It was truly exceptional. 747 may have more character and history, but 380 may be more comfortable.

you can and should look at them as aN "as little as you can eat buffet" option. the cost transparency is a huge part of the value of cloud, even if it cost the same as on prem, the transparency is huge, but it's even more val

Yeah this seems like a big win for Azure overall, which is otherwise not compelling vs AWS unless you are all in on MS stack (Windows, SQL Server)

I always thought this was insane, but now I wonder if "SSO Pricing"/tax is just the "real price" and the "Base pricing" is really the new free trial? Of course the SSO/real pricing is too high, and ev

Every security app seems to have problems like this all the time, and they never seem to be able to detect them themselves. Security software that didn't suck would be a huge opportunity, and yeah as others have alluded too, a huge ca

I think Ally is very focused on auto loans, so again industry concentration. They raised the rate they pay on their savings accounts yesterday. Will be interesting

From my past experience 50% of the time was sort of the magic amount of time to be in the office. Seemed the best blend of focus time at home and in person time in the office. Now I'm 100% remote but next job I'd look for 50 &#x2

I had the pleasure and privilege to sit under the pilot on a BA 747 from LHR to SFO. Amazing experience. That plane has been melted down and made into beer cans.

That sounds like what I've seen on Azure. Mystery weird problems we see, but they don't. Often in the network side. One time we were pretty sure they had a bad interface in a LAG group. Massive packet loss between hosts, but onl
