If I had paid for a reservation for this car in checks notes 2017(!!!), I'd have some issues with them as well. Very cool tech demo, but come find me when it's getting produced and sold to the people who reserved them a decade ago.

Haven't had cancer, but for another surgery I had, the drive down from SF to Stanford Sports Medicine was EXTREMELY worth it.

That's the opposite of how green cards work.

Wtf, their pricing model is almost as bad as the planned obsolescence. $15 a month just to connect your hardware? Ridiculous.

Same. I am generally very politically aligned with him (esp housing and transit), but this one ain’t it.

If you think the administrative flip flop is bad now, wait until Trump implements schedule F.

The options were likely 10k when he was issued them at hiring. When leaving the company, he would need to purchase those options (likely within 90 days if it's a shitty policy). Then, the real kicker is that he would have to pay taxes on the on-paper gains between the 10k and the current valuation. So lets say the company was worth half of what it was at IPO, he would now own 2.5m of stock, owe taxes on 2.49m of income, and have to pay that off with early engineer salary and no liquidity on his equity.

An early stage startup is a bad place to avoid working insane hours.

Nobody is saying they should be high on the job. People are saying we shouldn't fire employees for having a beer or a joint a week ago on vacation.

The status quo endorses the former and demonizes the latter.

New comment by sshconnection in "California spent $17B on homelessness – it’s not working"

In sprawling cities like Houston you can also just not see that area of town. In a dense place like SF, it's harder to avoid.

Certain areas are inherently easier to be homeless in, regardless of local programs.

Try sleeping outside for a year in Phoenix or in Minneapolis. Try getting resources in a sprawling suburb without access to a car. It seems clear that SF, with its dense, walkable layout, access to public transit, and year round moderate climate, would be vastly preferable to most areas of the US.

Love how HN loves data driven analysis, except when analyzing SF violent crime rates.

It's worth noting the overlap of the people mocking San Francisco for having a homelessness crisis and those decrying upzoning for density and providing affordable housing.

Crows, mice, and dolphins perhaps.

If you're in the NYC or bay area, there are a few quant groups on meetup.com that have regular events. Might be a good place to drop in.

That high school kid needs to install a web server. Is he going to hire someone? No. He's going to copy a curl command.

Does OpenStruct still break caches?
