Out of curiosity, does anyone know what happened to all of the Theranos hardware / technology after the company was shut down? e.g. the edison testing machines
I would love to try this, they have some of the highest resolutions that I've seen but a little $$$
I have been working with ruby for 10 years, kind of / sort of thinking of jumping ship to a new company / job soon.
I did a little searching & found this Irish pub ambient track which I'm enjoying right now, reminds me being in pubs back home :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYMw-ESqCUE
I know this is off topic, but one of the fist / only books that ever really changed my view on the world around me was "Quantum Enigma: Physics Encounters Consciousness" - I have never seen things quiet the same way after reading this.
If you are in a Virgin Mobile (Sprint) 4G area with coverage - then buy one of their hotspots (used on ebay to save $$$), $5 a day buys you all the data you can eat & it stays fast. You can connect more than 2 devices. Save $86 a week.
Alternativly, get on Verizons pre-paid plan: $45 a month for unlimited voice & text, subscribe to auto-pay & you get 1GB a month for free. You can buy an additional 3GB for $20 - you have 90 days to use up the data, the use your iphone as a hotspot.
It is down for me, SF Bay Area (east bay).
I used to love bacon / pork, but cannot eat that stuff anymore after reading about how toxins are formed / retained in the meat.
The only beef I eat is grass-fed pasture raised - no hormones or antibiotics.
My opinion is that you pay for your health one way or the other, either in preventing illness or after you become ill, there is no escaping the high cost of staying healthy in western, urban centers.
I am thinking of buying a very small number of shares & "gifting" them to my sister - a super user of their service..more for novelty than as part of any serious investment strategy.
I will send you code samples or show you my contributions to open source projects so that you know I can code, happy to discuss these until you are happy.
What is far more important is to find out about me, do you like me, can you work with me & tell me honestly about your dam culture - do you expect everyone to be at there desk at precisely at 8am, work a minimum of 80 hours per week? How is productivity measured? Do you expect me to attend some "team building" weekend nonsense when I could be spending time with my wife instead.
When your with the right women & have some kids, I find it is difficult not to want to get out of work to spend more time with them.
