I tried the Moonlander for a bit, but could never get over the learning curve (it is very very steep). It's build quality is fantastic, is amazingly customizable, but the shape didn't work with my brain/muscle memory.
I went back to the Sculpt. If they ever decide to discontinue them I guess I'll need to stock up.
The point of a Peloton is to do the classes, either for running or spinning, which require a subscription. It would be silly to buy a premium device who's point is to use the subscription based features and specifically intend to use it without the subscription. Just buy a similar treadmill from another company.
The days when people can coast forever at Google are coming to an end. I had to let one person go because they basically never did more than the bare minimum (and got 3 Needs Improvement ratings in a row), and I know many more (some under me, some not) who are approaching a PIP.
I've worked at startups that have collectively made great decisions for a period of a few years, and people left or changed their minds, and some of those decisions didn't hold up. Some of those assumptions shaped code that too difficult in the short term to change, and there was no political will to push it through. Short term leadership was great, long term was less than great but still good. For the particular company I'm thinking of, new engineering leaders joined and things seem to be trending back in the positive.
