Simon, if you're reading this, I'm a huge fan of so much of your work! Rodney CLI has been a game changer for local development. I have a few open PRs that I've contributed but it doesn't look active. Are you planning on maintaining it or should I fork it?
You can thank Epic Games.

I love this! I've made a web version powered by your data layer and REST API. Let me know what you think. https://github.com/goeric/webcasa

AND all their current customers (and customer pipeline) AND their roadmap.

Not always. Our startup's rented suite in DTLA did not have janitorial services provided for (only common building areas) and no security guard. Access cards? It was a metal key.
I have gigabit fiber internet (up and down) in LA for $80/m from AT&T. It's incredible, and I can't believe they offer it. I can't imagine that would be the case today if Google Fiber never existed.
Those prices are Nvidia's OC Founder's Editions. The non-OC versions are actually:

RTX 2080 Ti: $999

RTX 2080: $699

RTX 2079: $499

Re:Spectrum internet is getting kicked out of New York on Saturday July 28, 2018 @12:14PM (#17633744)
It’s pretty incredible speed. However, their customer service is atrocious. I signed up for a $70/m deal for the first year. This was confirmed by the sales rep. Then I was billed $80/m. They refused to do anything about it, saying the $70/m offer never existed.

I have AT&T Gigafiber (1000mbps) not too far from you in Echo Park. Maybe they offer it in DTLA? I'm only paying $80/m.
So excited about this but I do think they may want to re-think their name, especially given Concorde's end.
Re:The Impossible Burger on Wednesday September 20, 2017 @05:52PM (#15298668)
Because they don't usually avoid meat because they don't like the taste - they do it for morale reasons. And sure, in 35 years a person may forget what that taste is, but if you make the best tasting plant-based burger then all sorts of people will be interested.
If you're ever looking for PM's this is right up my ally. I was the co-founder and head of product at Naritiv (Techstars/Disney Accel S14, acquired by Hootsuite). I also ran ops as well and dealt with our law firms (corp and entertainment) every week. Would love to talk! Email in profile.

Just make it an option and problem solved. You can even make it the default. As long as users like OP can opt-out.

Isn't Reddit already open source?

Re:Video is Coming to Reddit on Thursday August 17, 2017 @04:40PM (#15040761)
I think it's pretty simple and I always wondered why they didn't do it sooner. Reddit is already one of the most popular sites on the Internet - but since it was just an aggregator it constantly took users off their site. Now they're owning more and more of the content and keeping users there longer. Sure, video is expensive, but now they have a much bigger revenue opportunity. They can't monetize videos they don't host.

Could have been an Onion article just a few years ago :).
He also said he will "ship" his product and badmouthed his competitors for not shipping. Then he cancelled his product after one cease and desist. George is a brilliant mind, but I hope he figures out how to become a better entrepreneur. He has so much potential.
While the R&D tax credit is not new, one of the tweaks was not a slight change.

Before, you could only offset your corporate income taxes, so you couldn't claim the credit if you weren't profitable (because you wouldn't have corporate income taxes). Now, you can offset social security taxes, which are based on payroll. So more startups can now benefit from this credit.

Re:A music-lover's guide to tinnitus on Friday June 23, 2017 @08:10PM (#14623692)
Mine was came after attempting to pop my ears during a very bad ear infection. I was trying to relieve the pressure, as I have done a lot, but because of the bad ear infection it was actually making it worse. The pain was so bad and it felt like my ear was never going to pop. Eventually, the pain subsided but at that exact same time, in place of the pain, was a ringing.

My ENT said the tinnitus was most likely caused by the bad ear infection and tried to assure me that me trying to pop my ears didn't have anything to do with it, but I can't help but feel like that wasn't the case, as I made the pain so much worse.

Anyways, agreed with others here that the first few months were the worst, and now it's mostly unnoticeable unless I actively think about it, drink a lot, or leave a loud environment.

Reddit hasn't been part of Conde Nast for a while.
Re:Justin Kan Raises $10M for New Legal Startup on Friday June 16, 2017 @03:10PM (#14571831)
As a startup founder who dealt with numerous legal things on the ops side, there's clearly room for a lot of improvement. While Clerky seems to focus on the startup's side of the problem, it seems like Justin is tackling the firm's side of the problem (that allows company's like Clerky to take their business). This is really interesting to me and I would definitely bet on anything Justin leads. Really excited to see where this goes.
Pretty insane that the semi-famous "Bitcoin Pizza" would now valued at ~$22M.
