Quovo has been bought by plaid since this tweet, just FYI

coreyja··on The reason Okta spent $6.5B on Auth0
$276.21 - 20% = $220.968

So not far off from $226

$226 / $276.21 = 81.8%

So its 18.2% to be exact

Edit: Realized the quote/article says 20% LOWER. Which is backwards, and is likely what my parent comment is pointing out

coreyja··on Static Typing for Ruby: Adopting Sorbet at Scale
Thanks for the reply!

> but you don't get any `sorbet-typed` RBIs, which, right now is not a concern for us.

Ahh ok! I think this might have been a bit I missed, cause I was commonly trying to do both which likely caused issues for me.

> The DSL generators are not 100% complete to fully replace `sorbet-rails` right now, but we are preparing a 1.0 release of the gem that should be able to do that.

Will keep my eyes open, thanks!

coreyja··on Static Typing for Ruby: Adopting Sorbet at Scale
Do you have any tips or tricks for migrating a Rails app from Sorbet `srb rbi` generated files to one using Tapioca?

I was unsure exactly which bits of Sorbet rbi were still required with tapioca https://github.com/Shopify/tapioca/issues/114

We are currently using `sorbet-rails` but it appears Tapioca would be a replacement for that as well, is that correct?

coreyja··on Supercharging Vim: Blazing Fast Search and Global Replace · Matt Layman
Found your blog through Google News but came looking for a place to leave comments and found you here!

Thanks for this! I've been using ripgrep in vim for awhile but `quickfix-reflector` is awesome! Thanks for introducing me to it!

coreyja··on Dependabot is joining GitHub
Congrats to the Dependabot team!

I've had the pleasure of reaching out to Dependabot a few times when I've had issues or problems and you guys have always been super responsive and quick to fix any bugs!

Congrats again on joining Github! And excited to see whats next for Dependabot!

coreyja··on You might not need Kubernetes
I am in the exact same boat as you are, and would love some feedback as well! I have been considering Kubernetes so that I can allow horizontal scaling, but haven't done it yet.

For my use case I am VERY well aware that Kubernetes is overkill, but I don't see a great middle ground between Dokku where I am now, and Kubernetes.

coreyja··on Paw – macOS HTTP client for testing and describing APIs
This is my first time hearing about `SetApp` but it sounds like an interesting concept. How do you feel about it? How many apps from it so you use often/daily? Worth the $10 a month?
coreyja··on How I attacked myself with Google Spreadsheets (2012)
I'm gonna test it out on a much smaller scale, and slightly different setup. I just grabbed 3 images from a rarely used server hosted with DigitalOcean, with a custom domain, and put them in a new Google Sheet using the same =image(url) technique the author mentioned. The access logs show Feedfetcher-Google; (+http://www.google.com/feedfetcher.html)" grabbed each of the images once immediately which makes sense. I'll check back in a few hours and see if there are any other requests.

Edit: I also grabbed 3 different images and put them in a separate sheet. I'm gonna leave one open on my desktop and not open the other and see if that changes the requests.

One Hour Later: I think that Google is probably grabbing images On-Demand now. There are 12 total requests on my 6 images. The first 6 are sporadic, which correspond to when I added the images to the sheets. Then the next 3 are in the same second, which come from opening the sheet on my desktop. And the last 3 also came in the same second, again from opening that sheet on my desktop. I kept one open and closed the other and neither have had the images requested since.

That worked perfectly for me, thanks!

Not working for me in OSX 10.10. Here is a PasteBin of the error I'm getting. http://pastebin.com/CicWMAc2
coreyja··on FinderPath
I have it running on Yosemite. Instructions for enabling accesibility settings are a little different though. https://thequantumself.wordpress.com/2014/06/26/enable-acces... Haven't tried anything fancy but verified it works
coreyja··on Twitter Sort
As tansey said Big-O for the worst case would be O(inf), Best case is O(1), if n is the length of the list, because if the sort returns the speed is independent of the size of the list. The average case is a little harder, but based on the 140 character limit someone else mentioned, I would say that the average case would be O(inf) cause on average it probably wouldn't correctly sort the list.

Just wanted to say I was looking for something like this last week and couldn't find one for my Mac. Thanks this is awesome! I'll def buy a license here soon
coreyja··on Intel's Xeon Phi Is Being Sold for a Low Price
I might be wrong, but I think his speeds are from the internal ram of the Phi and the FX-9590 to their processors, not the transfer speed from the hard drive to the cards ram. So if all of the data fits in the Phi's ram it can transfer that to the processors really fast, but if you have to transfer over the PCI you are limited to those speeds.

This seems to working for my. "Esc" closes all the examples. Mac OSX Yosemite - Chrome 38
coreyja··on A Reminder To Investors
But the Halo Effect page that you linked says that males were influenced by the halo effect when rating both male and female subjects so this isn't a strong argument for not hiring/investing in women. And in a MythBusters I watched the other night, they "Busted" the myth that men get dumber around an attractive female. I'm pretty sure it was from the newest season if you wanted to look it up.

Can you elaborate or know where I could read more?

Was there something to spark this post? Or is it simply a reminder?

coreyja··on RocketSkates let you zip along the sidewalk at a top speed of 12 MPH
Not trying to be rude, but why is engadget linked here instead of the actual KickStarter? I can't be the only one who hates struggling to find a source link on most news sites? Wouldn't it be more useful to just link to the KickStarter?

Edit: Ok so engadgets source links are easy to find but still why not just link to the KickStarter?

coreyja··on Ask HN: Did something happen to TopCoder?
From the wiki page on TopCoder [1] "In September 2013, [topcoder] was acquired by Appirio." So assuming it was when they got acquired that it changed.

coreyja··on Popcorn Time Is Now On Android
The TechCrunch article was posted in May when it happened, not sure why it was posted here today though.

That's actually really good advice, thanks.
coreyja··on The Bitcoin mining network is offline
According to http://blockr.io/ there are new blocks that aren't showing up on blockchain.info, so I think you are correct
coreyja··on Diffscuss – Code reviews in plain text
I like this idea. And how I see it this isn't really mixing comments and functional stuff, since the code reviews and replies are really just comments on the diff, which is the intended purpose of the # comment
coreyja··on Famo.us open to everyone
Because using a web framework that only works on mobile is not truly platform agnostic. It may be platform agnostic in that it works on multiple different mobile platforms, but a mobile first web framework is not truly platform agnostic as it doesn't work for the desktop web.
coreyja··on Popcorn-app no longer on GitHub
Ya those are from the original version, that the developers shut down on March 14th. The GitHub that the OP linked is the link to the new GitHub fork that is/was under active development. Not sure what happened but the saga seems to be continuing
coreyja··on Dropbox for business
Honest question, what did your team of 3 need that required you to pay $795/year? What were you storing in it?
