We are committed to staying here for the long term. I think it is a matter of perspective and what one wants to prioritize. From a cost perspective, I think the cost of raising 2-kids in the suburbs or cute towns outside the city within com

Same. We live in Manhattan with two kids and owning a car is just an added expense without much benefit. To be fair, if you lived further out in Brooklyn (Bayridge, Sussex Beach and Coney Island) you probably need a car for the day to day.

I think if you have young kids and in the 40s where the need for healthcare appointments go up there might be a demand for this product.

This looks super interesting. I’m interested in the professional services position but definitely can’t relocate to Vienna at this time. Is that absolutely required?

My advice. Attend tech meetups and networking events that quants frequent. Socialize with them, and try to get them to refer your resume for open positions. Side projects and contributions to open source projects will help get their attenti

My activity on Reddit has gone way down since they stopped supporting .compact view on mobile. I definitely miss it and want to go back but it’s incredibly hard to engage with the content on mobile browsers now.

Wow. Thanks for sharing. I had no idea that Professor Remzi and his wife Andrea wrote a book on Operating Systems. I loved his class (took it almost 22 years ago.) Will have to check his book out.

Indeed. Thanks to snow day here in NYC, my first grader has remote learning and all academic activity (reading, writing and math) was restricted to 20 minutes in her learning plan.

We’re in the same boat. We live in an apartment building in a neighborhood we love. Recently, a larger apartment in our building came onto the market. The seller is desperate to offload and the size would really suit our family’s long term

I’d worry way less about what other people thought of me and focused instead on quieting down the insecure voice in my own head. I might not be anymore successful financially or politically, but I certainly destroyed several professional re

Yeah I just watched the keynote on Amazon’s Q product. I’m going to tinker with that in the coming days. Pretty excited about the Google drive/docs integration since we have a lot of our company documents over the last 15 years in Driv

That’s fair but I’m mostly building prototypes with the API intended for exploring the space so I’m not too worried about productionizing these yet. I was curious if there’s another solution that meets or exceeds OpenAI for quality of conte

What alternatives are you currently looking at? I’ve just begun scratching the surface of Generative AI but I’ve found the OpenAI ecosystem and stack to be quite excellent at helping me complete small independent projects. I’m curious about

Do you have a list of companies where employees code for a paycheck? Is it broadly, any company where technology is the main driver of revenue. I imagine coding for lifestyle values penetrate in these companies too.

That makes a lot of sense. As a lapsed programmer myself, I found the Scratch interface was not very intuitive.

Thank you. Scratch Jr looks interesting and is probably a better introduction for my 6 year old.

I’ve been tempted to teach my daughter programming with scratch. At what age did you introduce your daughter to Scratch and programming? Where there any helpful/fun guides you or she discovered along the way?

Growing up in India, movies always had an intermission. They even used to cut Hollywood movies at 45 minutes. I always looked forward to the break because it was one of the rare occasions my parents would let me and my sister have soda and

Could you recommend a good introduction to NLP book?

The memory I have of that day is similar. I had an early morning class and work in the afternoon. When we left the early morning class, a friend got a call from his parent asking if he was okay. We were in a midwestern college town nowhere

I’ve been living in the US for 21 years and whenever I experience this I assume it is racism and/or prejudice. I cannot confront them so I have no way of knowing their exact reasons for doing this. Maybe I’m just socially awkward and I

I’m curious. What’s your company? I work in software consulting and often find that our enterprise clients are unwilling to hire product managers.
