When you own a 17 net or 12 net, I think it comes as a given on extra txt records not needed. Totally not fair, but reality, and someone’s allowing it on the filtering side.
That is a great point. And the UC system does have a central database. It would be nice to see total uniques per school out of transparency, as you can apply to all the UC’s much easier.
This does have an adverse effect, as relatives of mine got multiple offers and others rejected or waitlisted. Not sure what the best path is, as the top 5% probably got accepted to all, at least what I am seeing from my network. Then others are left to wait for the top 5% to choose; sometimes a month. By then, most non top 5% have to make a decision elsewhere. I am sure the UC System has it all worked out, just seems it could be done better.
California Universities just had the most applications in history. UCLA 145k applicants, UCSD 130k applicants. Respectively they are both down now to about a 3% and 5% acceptance rate due to the spike. Might be Covid holdovers due to a gap year, or with the economy as it is, out of state applications have dropped.
I had a couple questions, as this feature is awesome!
How long does it take to get the response vs external bots pulling the data? What mechanisms does GitHub have in place to stop bots who monitor repo changes? I ask, as I have been there and it is super scary how fast someone/bot pulls repo data changes, as in minutes, and the repo we had back then was not popular.
One of my fav companies! Dor is an amazing person, highly recommend working with them. We started to move to ScyllaDB at my last engineering job. Doing 100TB’s a day in IoT Data.
That might be SAAS. The other side of the coin is not the same. You do a multi year multi million dollar deal with a fortune 100, don’t expect 0 lawyers, 0 CPA’s.
I love projects like this! Great idea and motivation.
I wanted to give a heads up that when I search for “Python for data analytics”, I get this awesome book “The Storm of Bringer by Isabel Cooper”. I know you are still working on the site, so it was a good giggle, put a smile on my face. You gotta see it for yourself, contextual a warrior repping python.
Worked there, managed a lot of the teams. An agent is considered a node. So you could have X nodes per server if that clears items up. Even agent per X jbod. The teams are very smart on blast radius and sharding. When I left I had exabytes of data under my mgmt and happy to chat if anyone wants to DM. Folks often forget how many users and services Apple has.
No comment about the company, but want to make clear as a buyer you understand the procurement and legal parts i.e. MFN or MFC.
If they do discount, even 5%, then it ripples across their accounts as a legal matter, esp at your scale. I was a buyer for some big companies, 8 digit, and the procurement office would only do a deal with MFN/MFC clause. They would also audit the supplier from time to time.
There is a lot to digest in this piece. Work environments are very dynamic and context and time-in-point is very important. I did not see this behavior, but I was not part of that group at Apple.
I worked with Jony after we were acquired. The original Siri linen background was his idea, the bubbles had to be perfect, the padding, the text size, the lists goes on. I inferred this as design obsession and did not find it offending, he was right 95% of the time.
When I left Apple, I emailed with Jony on a device I had designed and pitched internally in 2011 but was shelved. His response has stayed with me to this day, “not all ideas make the cut, even the best ones”.
He could have cut me down or ignored me, but he responded with honesty.
I think that void he left when he moved on was too big to be filled. Steve and Jony were always together, pretty much every day we would see them at lunch.
I was very lucky to have worked with Doug on multiple projects and see his passion for computer science and humanity. He was one of the most humble people and was happy to share all his wisdom. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him. To be specific, I built out purple numbers for Doug. I remember demoing it to him, it was hacky, and the joy he showed made my soul smile. He was a very special man. I have many other stories, but that is for another day.
Let’s give Bob a chance. I worked with him at AWS and prior. He is very committed to the customer, hence his post. We all try to communicate the best we can, so please try to support him in his new role.
I launched several startups on Heroku over the last decade +, and feel they have gravity on trust. Some of the best devs I have worked with.
Dan was a great soul and genius, this is very sad to hear. Dan made life fun, my stomach would hurt from laughing so hard with him. I am looking over our chats, and found a video he sent me that I can’t stop watching. He was working on streaming VM state to the cloud and decided a mouse wasn’t fun, so busted out a turntable to control it in realtime. It totally worked and was way better! He even starts making record scratching sounds. I love how someone posted the DEFCON shot of his nap, that made me smile! Remember those moments of joy.
Thank you, great information. Those incentives then have to change. I wrote a few apps back in the day, and 30% seemed high, but I never hit over $100k in rev. I was hoping the little guy who scaled would have won here.
“ The App Store's standard commission rate of 30 percent remains in place for apps selling digital goods and services and making more than $1 million in proceeds, defined as a developer's post-commission earnings” [1]
What is convoluted and worse? I am not a mobile Dev at this time, just going by what I see online.
