Fastmail. I can vouch for them, having used them since 2014, including after a recent re-design.
That's nice! In the time I've been in the industry, fb has generally been considered a better payer than amazon, I think. Would you agree?
I was just trying to say that the amazon vesting percentage doesn't adversely affect a returning intern's total first/second year comp.
Being an intern is a huge bonus here. My wife got a decent equity grant under the terrible 5/15/../.. plan, but also a 20k cash bonus for each of the first two years for being a returning intern.
This makes it very attractive to quit after two years, imo
(the royal) You don't have evidence that the vast majority of user's care about ethics either. If you have numbers, please share, and I'm happy to apologize and reverse my position
I think several people here are in tech, but earn non faang salaries. My personal opinion is that many of them are jealous.
Not snarky: maybe it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, beyond optics?
That's why I said "a lot by people". I'm sure some people have ethical reasons to dislike ads.
If you re-read your parent comment, it says "A lot of people in their 20s". That's clearly different from "All of the people in their 20s".
Well, it _was_ brilliant, but the alleged perp got caught. Good luck now.
Are you allowed to just do it now, or that has to be done in the 2-hour backlog grooming meeting?
Thank you, that's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for.
Trying to be non-snarky here: How does it help someone who doesn't need any of today's typical accessibility features?
They might not get the visibility, or you might complain that they are using Medium which you hate, etc.
> Ford has had 4 CEOs in the last four years... not a sound from the media.
You must not read a lot of news
> GoT, Breaking Bad, Westworld
finished show with poorly received last couple of seasons, not a hbo show that's streaming on Netflix right now, 2-season old show with a silly 2nd season.
House of Cards was also kind of crap after 4 seasons (and even earlier if we're going to nitpick)
Breaking bad is now seen with rose tainted glasses, but I remember how some folks talked about it when the show was running (esp the fly episode).
Finally, if you're going to praise HBO, not mentioning The Wire is kind of ignorant.
I suggest braving through season 5, I personally enjoyed the remaining seasons, especially the last one. They never reach 1-4 levels though.
Added advantage for me : no one making irritating sounds eating their $8 small popcorn or unwrapping their $5 candy.

This is not so difficult though. You just need to adjust your starting point to someone who doesn't like boulos' first. That's not so difficult IMO, it's a large org and boulos' seems to be a fairly prolific commenter here.
> Analogy breaks down because “horses” are just as smart as the “drivers” (sometimes more and sometimes less)
Sure, but horse is horse and driver is driver. I can give excuses all day for why I'm not the driver.`
> Protobuf (Models)
Sounds really cool! Is this something that comes out of the box or generated by your own plugins?
Are you writing internal APIs or exposing some to external developers also? Are those external developers able to start from JSON and make a request?
> It's arguable whether this is legal even if you signed a contract
If you ever take Costco to court, I'll follow along curiously.
In a lawsuit-hungry country like the US, I'm not sure how long a large company like Costco can get away with something illegal in their contract.
>> Why not just ask for permissions for a single app specific folder
Dropbox lets apps work on either a single app specific folder, or on your entire dropbox.
But the app has to be one type or the other, the user cannot choose what access they want to give out.
Disclosure: I work at dropbox, previously on the api-platform team.
Next time Stewart Butterfield co-founds a games company, it'll be one to watch out for.
> something the user seems to specialize in,
I think this is why.
Can you list a few dumb TVs that are also decent from a watching perspective? In 2015 I could just say $300, and most TVs at that price range were non-smart. Today the struggle is much worse.

Good thing only a handful of people care about what you see then...
And in this case, Lyft is simply trying to ascertain that the courts will uphold this contract. No need to hate on them simply for taking the city to court.
