Reminds me of "Don't dig for the gold, sell the shovels". Could also be read: > Meta spends 10% of last year's revenue to acquire 49% of a top AI data company and poach their leadership, to ensure they are a key playe

Cool attack chain. Regarding the payout-- I'm curious if targeting (in the disclosure video) a CEO/C-Suite exec @ Google would have encouraged a higher amount from the panel.

This might make sense from a high level, but again, the devil is in the details. Realistically you do need someone (vendor or not) to translate 1000's of pages of legal jargon into actual product decisions. There's a tipping point

Is there a hardware restraint for why he chose just 1TB? I'm seeing 2TB/4TB/8TB Nand Flash being sold online (the latter for a hefty ~$650). Is there anything stopping me from paying a professional like this to install an 8TB

> - Price is $3499, definitely a "Pro" price, which probably means that a "non-Pro" version is in the works. I would perhaps argue the opposite here. They list it on the official page as "starting" at $3499

I just want to point out: At the time of the iPhone launch, AT&T's business model (and every other telecom up until this tipping point) was to sell "minutes" which was essentially micro-charges for consumers who want to m

Also an Australian here. Scheduling meetings to be respectful of both timezones is the bane of my existence... The # of times I've woken up at 6/7am or 10/11pm to cater for a director who's based in Austin or Seattle...

The commenter you're replying to can chime in here for an accurate response- but I assume what he's referring to is that a company usually assigns you a fresh, internal GH account. My past three jobs have all done this, which make

It weirds me out that he's even worried about this now. In the beginning Musk stated in interviews that he wasn't concerned about the monetary amount. I can't pull it up on my VPN, but I recall him taking the stance of it bei

I'm going through the Google interview process right now, second round. My interviewer has rescheduled three times in the past week, each with less than 24hrs notice and without a reason given. Is there a 'safe' space I can g

What's so special about April 4? Expedia Group has also mandated a start back at the office from this day... An email announced it to us about a month ago.

Just circling back to this thread- looks like the move was by the FBI after arresting the culprits... Who was a former YC alum. Thought the timing was funny and that you should know. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3026

You beat me to this. This malware is better than some of the work my colleagues can do, and they're being paid a lot of money. Even though it has bad intentions, it's still good software. Credit where credit is due, I guess.

Great article. In my experience using agile, I haven't observed any failures- just failures from teams implementing it incorrectly. There are many billion dollar consulting companies that have completely committed to agile and are flou

I'm blessed with the ability to live in a somewhat low COL city, and be within a 10 minute walk to work. When WFH first started I was beyond excited. Working in my pyjamas? Hell yeah. Fast forward about 12 months and I began longing fo

I imagine similar to the posture of riding a motorcycle, seeing as a helmet on average would weigh a similar amount to a VR headset. As a rider myself, the first week or so was a bit rough and an unusual feeling- it wears off after that.

This is the reason I hop companies every ~2 years. The 3-6 month period after joining a new company is absolute bliss. Because of this I am less attached to the work, there is more wiggle room, and I am less stressed about meeting deadlines

I think what you're speaking of here is the separation between yoga (which is typically a very spiritual, meditation focused activity) and pilates (which is focused on physical strength, flexibility, and posture).

by deviation 5y ago
Stabilisers! People take them for granted. Typical strength training is usually lack-lustre in building these. This benefit is not unique to yoga, though.

by deviation 5y ago
Interesting- The benefits you mention are primarily physiological. I would argue that if building strength, clarity, and focus is someone's main goal then this could be just as easily achieved by regular routine exercise like a calisth

As a consultant using a client macbook that is heavily neutered by its security and safety protocols... I'm wishing that I were able to install this. Excited to try it in the future.

I could care less about the attitude or acumen of Jeff or Elon personally. From a business perspective though, it's absolutely bonkers to see Amazon wasting such an immense amount of resources in an attempt to slow the competition down

I feel like this will be very popular in the politics/cult-following circles for raising money and pushing agendas... But I do hope it stays pure and becomes a way to genuinely support a creator who provides valuable opinions or views.
