You don’t know that he cheated on her. Bezos’s statements say that they were already separated. Please don’t malign either’s reputation in a public forum.
It's also possible he had access to rare supplements that enhanced performance; a modern equivalent would be a banned PED or Performance Enhancing Drug.
I would think much like doping does today, marginal but when all the competitors / animals are all at the top of their game, marginal gains can be the difference between winning and losing.
I'm with you on this analysis. CAFO or factory farms have made meat much cheaper; likewise with globalized supply chain. Abundant Florida waterfront real estate – and low cost of air travel – has contributed to a comparably increase in supply of seaside villa substitutes.
Edit: I can see where your solution has an advantage. When one accepts contributions, all of that can be automated with web hooks via github. Still, having to run lambda/similar for this is a bit heavy weight.
Edit 2: Considering that for a release, I would opt in for release from a tag or explicit commit, that would be a non issue. Pull when needed, for redundancy, use another, self hosted bare repo. Push there in case of github down.
Wouldn't replacing the github hook with a git-hooks script incrementally improve the solution as it currently exists?
Then, combine that with a git-hook script that designate all non-release branches push to team's Keybase repo as well? Maybe including a custom prefix in the branch name to avoid need for conflict resolution?
I'm also thinking that it would be easier to use git-hooks to push to AWS CodeCommit (in a random region that GitHub is unlikely to use) paired with CloudWatch events to invoke service backup to Keybase
Of course, ideally it would be a Terraform (or similar open source stack) script so it's not dependent on AWS as a vendor... I have experienced the real pains of vendor lock-in, even with cross-region there is opportunity to improve robustness
WorkReduce is an American company that handles back-office and middle-office operations for advertising agencies. We have been 100% remote for years. I've been with the company since we were seed stage and we're growing quickly.
We are hiring 10 full-time employees (with benefits) for SEM roles. The company has been 100% remote since day one.
We are hiring for both _Associate_ and _Supervisor_ roles.
Culture is awesome and fun – diversity starts at the Board and Executive levels, and it's a refreshingly human environment.
I know it's a hoop to jump through, but this should not be a problem for the type of people we want to attract: please DM your résumé via Keybase (link in profile) along with:
(*) role you're applying for
(*) skills you have +
(*) skills you don't have yet ×
(*) any questions you have about company or culture
Regarding VISA: must have permanent USA work authorization and live in a USA territory (since we are hiring full-time employees, we have the unique specialization of setting up relationships with American bureaucracies in all the places).
I know one of the people who literally wrote a chunk of the matching engine on one of the larger exchanges. He’s not absurdly rich but a book from him on high performance order book management at scale would absolutely worth a read.
The metaphor is appropriate because quite frequently people who use things to the greatest effect know very little about the implementation or how it actually works.
That's a reasonable argument then, and now I appreciate the metaphor.
If one is interested in the technical details of implementation for technical reasons, I would agree that a brilliant and interesting engineer wouldn't necessarily be in line to profit from their value creation although would be available to discuss mechanics of implementation.
Just on a quick scan we've got Graham, Buffett, Soros, Taleb... those are before I need to go and look up personal net worth for some of the other names. I'd bet on Burton Malkiel having done alright for himself, too.
Graham, Buffett, Soros – sure, ok, although I doubt they're giving away the keys to the kingdom in their books. Buffet himself is notorious for saying that great ideas are proprietary and not to be shared. In the investment world, in stark contrast to the tech community, ideas are as valuable as execution. Even in VC proprietary dealflow is considered to be valuable.
There is actually some controversy as to how much money Taleb made from trading and portfolio management as opposed to writing.
Right, so your argument is what? That no valuable idea is ever written down? Or that no written down idea is valuable? Why would either of these be true?
I see a common fantasy among developers; they want to apply their sophisticated intellect and technical knowledge towards exploiting financial markets. So, my argument is that if this is what one is up to, one is not going to find many valuable ideas spelled out and spoon fed in a book.
But that's a non sequitur. There's no connection between the intent of the reader and the value of the content. Whether the reader is in the right mental state to learn from it is another matter entirely...
