gotcha, thanks for answering!

Out of curiosity: How do you test your sheets? I feel like I can arrive at such a sheet over a few days of reading, but unsure how I'd test I'm doing the right things (since there isn't a tool or a combination of tools that can act as oracle)

Fellow ex-dropbox (2016-2021), the only part I disagree with is "Python was still used for virtually everything". Several core internal and user-facing services were in golang by even early 2020 (authentication, equivalent of IAM, part of the API gateway, etc).

Unfortunately, I don't think I'd describe dbx as a place with simplicity in infrastructure during the time I worked there, but it was good to have a standard set of rules enforced everywhere.

> would that be considered insider trading

Not by default. Typically, according to the trainings I have received, over and over again, it's only wrong to trade if you are exposed to material non public information (MNPI). Such a person would have to know they are in a special category, unless they live under a rock or something.

I think it's ridiculously difficult for an employee receiving a standard monthly amount of RSUs to "mistakenly" commit insider trading.

My friend who works at apple (hardware/wireless stuff?) has been to the office every day, except for a brief period in March-May 2020

What do you mean by "these days"? My wife and I have done h1 porting 3 times in total during the pandemic (once during President Trump, others during President Biden), and the process was insanely fast (== 1.5 month total from starting email with lawyer to I797 in hand, including a week at DOL and about a week at USCIS for the I797). We used Premium Processing (never not used it, except during the time it was suspended a few years ago).

I was curious if it has ballooned back up since May 2021.

To answer GP, revenue, not profit.

"That’s the revenue that British Airways generated each year linking its London Heathrow hub and New York John F. Kennedy International Airport, where a healthy mix of tourist and business customers made it the most lucrative route on the planet"

Fastmail is great, but this is not a reason. Gmail had this >10 years ago, and Thunderbird too.

Even if the selection part is true, it chases away people who cannot be bothered to interact with a human being for 20 minutes or so. High value is a different set of people with unknown intersection.

Were you working from home before the pandemic?

The only place I've seen people eat cereal is coworkers at the office (across 3 companies).

Look him up on linkedin :) He was in my leadership chain for part of that time at Yahoo.

Have you figured out how to change this? Per articles like https://nerdschalk.com/android-12-how-to-change-lock-screen-... there's no straightforward way.

I hate the new color palettes as well, I wish I hadn't upgraded

Sorry about that, and nice that you're almost side-effect free now.

Are you american/in america? Did you have to re-register your fingerprints?

And then there are people like you and me who do neither and spend time talking shit on HN.

One counter example is yahoo, back in 2013[0], unless we want to be pedantic/snarky about "major"

Thanks!

Is there something I can read that establishes the general trend? I know there was a recent leaked memo, but it seems like a weak way to establish general trend.

> All of this apparently happened back in 2014 (the conviction is recent). If you're wondering what Netflix thought of all this, Kail apparently left Netflix for a job at Yahoo, from which he was fired after Netflix found out about his scheme and told Yahoo.

I was at Yahoo around the time this was revealed, and I don't think he was fired immediately after Netflix making the claims public. He was still CISO/CIO/some shit and used to participate in mailing lists, iirc.

I wonder how much he got in severance from yahoo, to round out the list of chutzpah-s

Wow, I'll keep this in mind next time I complain about my manager.

HN has a healthy number of conspiracy theorists and flat out liars. There was a post about Apple keeping the 30% cut on refunded apps last year that is a good example.

From experience, there is no way Southwest is fast enough to implement this check/extra data collection in 2 days.

> 12 node OpenStack

I share your disdain(?) for openstack, but the 12 node count there is minimum I think (to deploy the control plane). You can likely add a reasonable number of hypervisors at no cost.

(I think I'm correct based on the table in the last page of your doc, but happy to be corrected).

No one except you is erecting a nonsensical strawman.

No one except you is trying to spin anything.

I hope the writer of n-gate is fine. Nothing since mid-july.

> hire some staff

And that's why they are scaling back on free plans.

In this context, it's a common acronym. Maybe you are just not as well read in this area as in others?

Googling CICO on an incognito window are 100% hits for calories-in-calories-out.

> > Open a Roth with $2,000 or less > You need a MAGI of less than $139,000 to do that.

Is there a reason trad -> roth doesn't work in this scenario?

Probably off topic: Back in 2014-15 at my first job, when I was working on openstack, they used to show up at the summits. They were super smart and very generous with their time when I had questions. I wondered sometime in 2020 what happened to them, I'm happy they had a decent exit.
