    That's just a function of their size. I guarantee you that Stripe and Airbnb's growth rates will drop to these types of growth rates if they hit the 100B valuation. The truth is wh…

    I failed the first time and passed the 2nd. I'm interviewing now so waiting to see if I get other offers. To explain, one of the interviewers walked in and asked "have you heard of…

    I've only interviewed twice at Google for engineering so take this with a grain of salt. Here are some things I would depriotize: ● Sorting: ○ Know how to sort. Don't do bubble-sor…

    I assume if the treaty says that he can open a casino then he can open a casino. Again, federal law supercedes state law. It's written into our constitution: https://en.wikipedia.o…

    Well take this with a grain of salt since this is from my high school government class, but it would only apply when the treaty conflicts with state law. So I assume in this case t…

    Just as one data point - I went through the onsite recently and I personally found that PDF to be unhelpful. While it does list everything you need to know, it also lists way too m…

    You could ask coding questions that are not algorithms? Realistic problems that are commonly found in web work.

    That's not even how eminent domain works. You get the market value for the asset seized, not the delta in the market value for the asset remaining post seizure.

    Yea except your math is wrong. You include the value of the beach in X which represents what Khosla owns even though he doesn't own the beach. Even Khosla wasn't arguing he owned t…

    No I replied to the correct comment. I am explaining why I would consider something like Impossible.

    OP asked why I am interested in Impossible Meats. I answered why I did it personally. What does that have to do with you? Eat whatever you want.

    OP and myself were discussing Kaiser as a health care plan. The ranking you showed was about hospitals not health care plans; a health care plan and a hospital are two completely d…

    You should stop eating all modern fruits. Literally all modern fruits have been designed by humans through genetic selection. Here is how a banana is naturally supposed to look: ht…

    Because I like the flavor and texture but I don't like the carbon emissions associated with beef production?

    I am a person who would eat these (and am a meat eater). I care about reducing my carbon footprint, have concerns about our food supply, and also the treatment of animals to some d…

    For actual healthcare outcomes, Kaiser will outrank most PPOs. Because Kaiser is an integrated health system, they are highly incentivized to actual improve outcomes. PPOs might fe…

    The beach isn't owned by Khosla and is not private so I don't understand this argument. The value of the strip of land should be assessed at the market value of having a land route…

    I think his current argument is that he doesn't have to give access (maintain easement) because his property is part of an 1851 sale of Mexican property which has a treaty that sup…

    Yes this is my understanding as well. He just needs to give access. He doesn't need to provide any infrastructure (which would be unfair to any homeowner).

    For long term investments (i.e. 10+ years) I would recommend a Vanguard target date fund or one of these: https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Lazy_portfolios
