Wow, this guy has a ton of other menu bar apps. So many features I have thought about but never bothered to build/find. Awesome!

He became president of YC in 2014. So probably Cruise, W14.

I've always thought the Apple TV + shows exhibit the most uniform "look" of any of the streaming services. Ted Lasso is probably the most pronounced example with vibrant colors, bright/uniform lighting, and a consistent "clean" look. I guess it makes a lot of sense given Apple's design aesthetic. Has anyone else noticed this?

Thanks!

Is it possible to export all my data from pinboard? I'm realizing it would be nice to back that all up every once in a while

Same!

We've partnered with with close to 300 colleges, and have users in 4 out of 5 high schools within the US. Many of our students earn tens-of-thousands of dollars for college.

Many of our users are first-generation college attendees, or minority or low-income students.

We closed our Series B in 2018, bringing our total funding to around $30M. Our investors include Salesforce Ventures, Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative, The Emerson Collective, Teamworthy Ventures, and First Round, among others.

Didn't Microsoft have an OS project called Mojave? http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2008/08/...

Dear Tech People is the result of pulling over 70k profiles on LinkedIn across 100 companies and processing all the data with name analyzers/facial recognition tech/and a bunch of actual humans on mturk. The project seeks to answer questions like how many women work at Snap or how many black engineers are at Docker. Hopefully the transparency in this project helps diversity advocates make cases for the change they want to see.

I'm excited to share this project on behalf of the creators. If you're interested in learning more, you can contact them at deartechpeople(at)gmail.com.

The subtle scroll hijacking on this web page makes it almost unreadable.

People already do this online. Facebook is very good at making sure you only see what you agree with.

That is such a great idea.

Oh, that is very interesting.

It appears to be something related to vision, and some of the questions for attending developers mention "a new type of sensor" and machine learning.

Maybe some Kinect style 3D vision systems? The picture looks like it is in a tablet form factor.

What's interesting is before the 1970's it appears as though there is just one group of players, at which point they become three. Then, over the following 40 years these groups seems to just get heavier - most likely a response by teams to maintain heavier players than their opponents in certain positions.

While the general growth over time makes sense, I wonder what caused the shift specifically in the 70's.

Wow I had this professor last semester. Great guy!
