I too was intrigued to find him but it took 10mins of watching a few videos to be left feeling duped. Felt like he's working out his problems on YouTube rather than therapy (after first trying to in a trading career). I really dislike

This should be a top level comment. To Bezos, a market controlled by a single large capital allocator is a free market. Unless the allocator is government of course (unless there's subsidies to apply for!).

Speaking broadly about not only Jane street, but adjacent firms like Jump and Citadel: In my experience (working with and getting coached by a recruiter in the space), these finance companies really want you to love the space, not just th

My take is that this is good (for me). At least the body can sink. If you don't sink evenly, your spine is aligned though not level. Whereas in a traditional mattress a poor fit to your body will feel like a hammock, or a hard floor wi

I had the opposite experience. Been on memory foam since 2011. "Upgraded" to a $3k traditional mattress in 2021. My pain became unbearable after 6 mo. Since my old mattress was disposed of, I bought a $300 memory foam mattress fro

I have never considered DRM on my Kindle, been using one for 15 years. I can buy any book on Amazon which is any book id be trying to read on this small format, and read it immediately for usually a maximum of $10. Never had want for more!

> Most likely the CEO of Boom ran the numbers, and the $100 ticket price is doable Most likely it's aspirational, something to market to investors and potential employees.

A project that isn't discontinued, among other things. I don't want to fiddle or think about hw/sw interface or compatibility. Just buy high quality speakers and invest by adding pieces to my system over time.

I also started investing in Sonos recently and damn the software is terrible. While I wish I could get 100% of my money back, I'm not sure there any turnkey alternative that is better. Every time I research I come back with "Sonos

What is often hidden in these kinds of posts is a relationship with money that's not fully understood. There's thousands upon thousands of different jobs out there, but your post implies that there's none outside of tech. I&#

I actually think this is one of the few (only?) good Amazon practices. Anyone who can't grok the doc in 30 mins is unlikely to ever open it, and if they do and spend a few hours on it, chances are they don't have much to add and i

Another programming language as reference. I can learn a new language really easily this way, but the first was really hard - it was so unlike anything i had ever done before.

They are treasured employees for sure, though I'd call it abused. Not sure where my worth comes into this.

Too much my experience as well. Inside AWS felt like hundreds (thousands?) of Indians who have terrible jobs but don't do anything about it. Now that I'm out I can't believe what I put up with.

A contract is only as good as both parties participate in good faith, or as it is enforceable. I'm comfortable with taking on the risk of not fulfilling my end of something like a gym contract, provided the mechanism to remove third pa
