Reminds me of this scene with Stanley Tucci talking about building a bridge in the movie Margin Call: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8Mc-38C88g

That was the first thing I thought of! Big fan of transit. Seems very similar.

Unless I'm reading this incorrectly, these are just ads , not some kind of sexist job board where you put in your gender and out comes a list of eligible jobs. Just yesterday the i…

Paid ~$5k/m 2br rent in NYC. $225/m 10x10 storage unit to go mobile this year. So quite a bit less in many cases, especially folks living with less in urban environments, but yes, …

Yeah I hear the terms 'liquidation preference' much more often than 'preference overhang'.

A lot of people use Emacs, but I remember as Cursive took off in the Clojure community. It's so wonderful being able to work on a large JVM app that includes Scala and Java in Inte…

I have seen it before but thats a good reminder in this case!

English-native developers building apps for mainly Western languages can easily introduce encoding i18n bugs that are really unfair for other folks. The rise of emoji in everyday t…

That's a good point. There will be prioritization, and the costs could be so high as to rule out brand plays even if they could get the rules interpreted as loosely as possible. My…

Most people talk about 1) tourism and 2) research which makes sense, but I can see a lot of benefit for marketing and branding. Imagine promo videos of someone using your gadget in…

There are some startups trying to fix these issues and price at flat fees to mixed effect (Trelora in Denver comes to mind as an example). I think the true solution will come not b…

This looks great! I like hosting small to medium events and even though it seems simple most platforms are not effective: -Most of my friends either don't use or don't regularly ch…

Agreed. It tags the complexity with identifiers, which is of some use, but it doesn't change anything about the execution path which can still get wildly out of hand.

Lots of great stuff here. It is a numbers game in many ways since I've been in interview processes where we turned down lots of people who go on to succeed in amazing ways at other…

This is great, but I'll need an API wrapper package.

I've met Jake and he gives one of the most inspiring and pragmatic pitches about the future of energy I've ever heard. What they're building sounds like magic--massive amounts of e…

Fun to see this here. I TA-ed for this course--one of my favorite undergrad classes. I highly recommend picking up the full book. The merging of proof and program is really cool as…

Brilliant work. This will be a huge timesaver for me. Thanks!

This is of course not a joke in some countries, and has been done with success. I am very good friends with someone who grew up in one of the central asian dictatorships (stan), an…

I actually needed something exactly like this yesterday, and was having issues getting Bookstrap's modal to do what I wanted. Thanks!

This article isn't even about Google. The title is for linkbait and page views. Bershidsky should stick to writing about Russian affairs, not conventional "wisdom" generalizations …
