Indeed the right to buy a stock is valuable, but as an employee / the state you should postpone the taxation to when the value is actually retrieved by the person you tax. It's a bit like saying 'You're house is worth X, you should be taxed regarding this price, even if you don't have yet made any profit'
You can do everything with them if they are publicly traded, if not what are you going to do ? If you're working in a early stage company which can see its valuation goes north (probably one of the reasons you work there instead of google btw) you could try to convince someone to buy some of your stock each month to pay for these vested shares you just get ?
Options and RSUs gain value the day you pay for the underlying stocks, not the day you're allowed to buy a stock which could later in time become worthless. don't forget they're aimed at employees so they can share the value created by the company they work within, and that these employees will pay taxes in time when they extract any value from their companies
We're using it in production apps since 18 months, and even if it still sometimes feel like it's a 'beta' (interfaces change, navigation keeps changing too) it has become more reliable. The real struggle has more to do with XCode and native apps in general (Expo definitely fits in the prototype thing in my opinion).
The good (great) part comes from the fact we're a small team (4 devs) and and thus we can do / test / debug things only once for our different platforms (we're using Electron, with all its caveats too).
Apollo and GraphQL availability is also a great plus.
There are performance issues, and data transfer from RN to Native code and the other way is complicated (and different on each platform).
With 30 persons working on an App you've got more than enough to have 1 version for each platform though.
It's nice to finally hear the other side of the story. It has been a public execution for now, and I think, even if the way he formulates it might be better, that he has got a very good point: more and more the debate is cut short on some subjects, and some people rather keep their opinions to themselves by fear of being ashamed by the 'empire of the Good'. Not that I agree or not with their ideas, but it makes me sad to see self-limitation of free speech.
or you can pass the fields you want in your request, and then realizing it would be simplier to fetch all your data in only one endpoint to avoid multiple roundtrips, create a giant request-parsing-data-fetching logic to respond with some kind of nested data, yeah GraphQL is useless because we can build a new one from scratch for each of our projects ;)
Indeed, some of the points which I loved the most when I started using it was how it allows to avoid writing any serialization method, how it helps centralize permissions, and, as said in the article, the simplicity it adds if you want to add fields in your queries.
My understanding of this licence is "we're making open-source software, play by the rules and don't sue us or we might find other ways to put you in trouble"
This is indeed true, but your family might suffer from what you're ready to give away when they are not. This is what I experience right now and it's not always easy.
btw nice hack : getting ~400pts on a saturday night, with this kind of uninteresting content. Growth hacking is good only when you've got something edgy to sell
Common, we're not here to get advertising, even if it's well done, I really don;t care about your skills, your supposed talent, and you B&W website. You might want to think you're special, but I still want to see something I could think of of special..
> “Engineer” is an aspirational title in software development
Some engineers aspire to, allow me this reserved term, 'build' software. And doing so fulfill their role as engineers, by doing it correctly. Some of this software later is used by so depicted real-hardware engineers to model their bridges before starting building them, their planes before flying in them. Would id be possible without engineers in software ?
'Engineering claims an explicit responsibility to public safety and reliability, even if it doesn’t always deliver.' -> that's exactly why some programmers NEED to be engineers. And some are indeed 'verified' engineers (the author seems to deeply care about the fact that there are some regulation behind this word), like myself and lots of my 'programmers' friends from engineering schools. And yes we also have 'programmers' or 'developers' or 'coders', to whom we need to explain engineering principles.
Although the reasons aren’t quite known, MS Excel doesn’t have a good reputation among data analysts.
Just stopped there :
+ not working on linux, paying on MacOS and Windows
+ proprietary format: hard to get data in / out from other tools (for instance, but not limited to, python lib, R lib, matlab (if some of us still want to use matlab) and all tools built upon those libs)
+ sucks for any real-sized dataset (try to handle 10k+ rows, not even thinking about 1M+ rows)
Those 3 reasons alone mean that you need to pay for a tool which would hardly do the job a team ask for, if only it works on their OSs, and won't be able to share it with other teams.
if they could stop showing results in GoogleNow which, once clicked, immedialtely redirect me to some kind of creepy scary vibrating ringing page telling me I've a virus on my 'NEXUS 5X - Orange SAS' that would be even better
The challenge is different: you've got way more units to control in SC2 than in Dota. And rushes can be punitive, which do not occur as frequently in Dota
That's sad, because I don't see what the equivalent of the smartphone is in this case... VR? I would have love a more powerful 13 inches MBP instead of a very good looking touchbar
Whoa ... I'm sure you've thought about changing the urls of your assets and update you code before publishing it again, then why haven't you done this ?
Probably not the best word ... More like :
* be able to stand in front of investors and explain where you want to see the company in 5Y, and why
* create a great culture everybody share
* speak a language sales people, HR people, tech people, devops people, legal people can understand, and be curious about their different jobs
