Look at DataRobot - they are massively successful at this point, and I think the key is that they didn't release the source. Open sourcing the core solution hugely dilutes your value proposition - I hope that you will reconsider your d

Congratulations, I read your comments on the Google Auto ML thread a few days ago with great interest. If Auto ML has commercial value, why are you open-sourcing it? I think it would be a bad idea to open-source your solution, unless you pl

Do you know if there are any other markets other than the USA where a competent (but not necessarily celebrity-famous) dev can make 300-400k a year? For many good devs, immigrating to the USA is close to impossible in these times. Would be

Do you know of anyone who has done this? I'd love to buy them coffee!

That's an inspiring story. Do you advertise yourself as a generalist or a specialist? When it comes to the actual role, how important do you feel is raw engineering ability versus managerial and political skills?
