CA isn't the only state investing in high speed rail. Elon musk lied to many people in many states with his Hyperloop project.

How is France any relevant to this?
That's a really interesting idea. I would be curious to apply this ML method against a personal diary and see if it is possible to detect mental state changes overtime.
I disagree. I'm a early Algolia adopter(and an engineer) and as an engineer they are a no-brainer for me.

Search is really hard even with the best elasticsearch libraries. IMO the biggest blocker with algolia is the price. It's really hard to get company buy-in because leadership don't get it: "Just build it"

After the CEO got caught lying on TV, that's unacceptable.

I'm pretty sure Apple has an entity in Europe therefor the money this entity makes in Europe should be taxed in Europe.

Yes it's a numbers game. Apply for as much job as possible and ask for a minimum of $200k base. With a little bit of back and forth you can settle for $180k and then get a lot of equity.
Re:I Just Hit $100k/year On GitHub Sponsors on Tuesday June 23, 2020 @10:58AM (#23614732)
You can easily get a comfy job with $350k

Yes but the author is American So he'll always have to pay US taxes even if he moves out of the US.(I'm aware about tax treaties but in most cases they still have to pay the difference)
It's not a race to the bottom.
In the US yes, thanks god not every country has 3rd world healthcare.
The very likely overpriced. The healthcare industry made over $100 billion in the US only in 2018. I've experienced it first hand, UCSF tried to force me into buying a ($174) kneebrace for over $2400...

And the fact that they are threatening to sue for something they couldn't sell is disgusting.

Plenty of houses in outer richmond, sunset, ingleside, ... have multiple in-law units and converted garages. The cost of living is too expensive.

Common most of the houses in outer richmond, sunset, ingleside, ... have multiple in-law units and converted garages. The cost of living is too expensive in those cities.

> Americans have big garages to stockpile supplies

No they don't. No one in NYC, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, ... have big garages to stockpile supplies and most of the US lives in those big cities with apartments without garages.

In the suburbs they do but that's a minority of the population.

How did you jump to this conclusion?

I’ll post mine since I started the topic. I sold a couple pictures of my travel this year. Got a few hundred bucks out of it. I’m pretty happy about it since the goal wasn’t to make money out of it.

Surprising to not see Zenefits in the list
So because you're bearish you think that SNAP's CEO regrets his decision?

In my opinion it's fair the have a rent increase if the property owner has a tax increase.

Absolutely not true
