The one big thing I see missing here is the ability to increase your luck by networking and personal branding. You absolutely have to build your personal network. More exposure, more potential opportunity. Plain and simple - no matter what

As I've followed OpenAI, the recurring theme is that the subject/company goals opens messy politics and philosophies rather than focusing on the research. In some ways I can appreciate their retraction and controlling visibility s

I can appreciate the problem here, but right now, the majority of the layoffs seem to be furloughs in the service industry and I'm betting they already weren't getting health insurance besides what they received from ACA.

Yes, very familiar with it... unfortunately there's a bit of vendor gamesmanship with these and they don't inform the MQ. Sorry, I've had too many years working with these tools, I'm cynical.

An important distinction (as I mentioned in another comment) is that you have no idea how much "aggregate customer feedback" Gartner really has, they don't disclose their research methodologies at all. That's a real prob

This is exactly right. I have worked for Japanese companies, do not underestimate the weight cultural pride had in how they prosecuted this case. It's not like the US at all.

Totally disagree as someone who has done both a few times: Try working remotely or from home with a small company or startup. In those environments you typically wear more than one hat and it requires face time. You'll also often work

FWIW... most of Amazon's internal infrastructure was NOT run on AWS as of a couple of years ago. The idea that AWS was built to support Amazon is a myth. In fact, most of their own IaaS was a very traditional data center built on conve

Ultimately, this transfers shares to Dell that, most likely, provides liquidity that could be used to pay a little bit of their massive debt ($56B) that is choking them. Dell is in financial trouble. See https://seekingalpha.com&

Interesting but wonder if this type of encryption ruins Dropbox business model since it keeps them from de-duping anything. I couldn't care less about Dropbox's business model... just curious.

"we are about to have a serious data-storage problem" is a bit hyperbolic but the technology is very real and being actively developed by a few different orgs.

Lol. The big guys actually use NAS and/or obeject stores for Enterprise files, with on-premesis, in a cloud provider or hybrid. Even at reasonable scale, it's cheaper than Dropbox. You can do this with distributed file shares and

This article is total garbage. Nicotine is no more harmful than caffeine if used in moderation. Some people are so anti-tobacco that they lose all logic and resort to old research. For more objective, modern research, read https:/

Nonsense. Most Gartner analysts have never touched the tools they write about. The interview a small set of users to draw broad conclusions. Overpaid journalists at best.

Gartner is a very expensive and unreliable CYA resource. This may sound brutal, but take a look at their authors. Most have never actually worked with the technology they are writing about and almost never have hands-on experience. They are
