Yup, Singapore follows this model. Singapore pays its public officials high salaries primarily to ensure the integrity and quality of its government. The official justification centers on attracting top talent who could otherwise command hi

The fact that I'm getting rate-limited every day even though my company has enterprise-level subscriptions to gemini, chatgpt, etc. tells me this bubble is far from popping. I predict within a year 80%+ of devs will be using LLMs to wr

This is why I format any Windows 11 pre-installed machine and install Windows 10 on it (Windows 10 is much leaner and has less bloatware than Windows 11).

I can't wait! So where's the app? could not find 'WeatherNext 2' in the appstore. iOS default weather app is notoriously very inaccurate.

Jeff isn't running Amazon anymore, it's Andy Jassy, who doesn't own a yacht.

To be fair, there is no public information indicating that Andy Jassy has his own yacht.

He's already out. Livestreaming his stock trades on X everyday. Probably has less interest in being an officer. He can still short pharma companies freely now.

Half the internet goes down because part of AWS goes down... what happened to companies having redundant systems and not having a single point of failure?

I don't like the wait time though. I don't want to wait 5 minutes for my Waymo to arrive for a 10 minute trip down to the grocery store when I can wait 0 minutes and hop in my own car and just drive there myself. I do like autonom

It won't. You're supposed to open the car door and grab your food.

We're also still moving thousands of pounds of vehicle around a public highway to carry a 150lb human... so? I don't think it's a big deal. But yes drone delivery would be much nicer...for burritos.

What many Americans don't realize is that China has already surpassed the United States in terms of development (developing country vs developed country sense of the word). Obviously both are 'developed' countries at this poi

Also did the police actually raid the company and physically take it over? I didn't see this anywhere mentioned.

Zuck isn't throwing 100M comps at many people (maybe 1 or 2 at most?), that's a myth that was debunked.

Is that a bad thing? I would imagine the only people who don't like this are criminals. But why are so many seemingly law-abiding citizens here up in arms about it?

Interesting that Mexico is much higher than the U.S.! I could believe it though.

With LLMs why do you even need a mini-Google?

Yeah, go work in Asia for 30k/year or Europe for 100k/year. Or goto Canada and pay even more than the U.S. in taxes and take-home much less. Who wants these 500k/year salaries in the U.S. anyway?

When OP says South Asia they mean India.

It's already bad enough we pay $1k+ for a TV and cannot turn off ads coming from the OS (ahem Roku, Fire TV). Now refrigerators?

"according to people familiar with the matter." aka, made up. They can make up anything by saying that. There are numerous false articles published by WSJ about Tesla also. I would take what they say here with a grain of salt. Zuc

It's not even in RSUs. No SWEs/researchers are getting $100M+ RSU packages. Zuck said the numbers in the media were not accurate. If you still think they are, do you have any proof? any sources? All of these media articles have ze

None of them are getting $100m+ packages. Zuck himself even debunked that myth. But the media loves to run with it because it generates clicks.
